I grew up in Salt Lake City. Was a JW during that time, but had all kinds of LDS friends and fam. My great great great great Grandfather was John Taylor. (3rd President of the Mormon Church.)

AlmostAthiest,
Is the no Caffrey's in the US a new thing? I remember (kinda) drinking several pints of it in an Irish Pub in Seattle a couple of years ago. It was delicious by the way.

I forgave them a long time ago. I take some comfort in the fact that they really don't know any better. By making a big deal out of it, and letting it hurt my feelings, I was only enabling their deluded sense of martyrdom. They view their requirement to shun me as a test of their sad, pitiful faith. I feel sorry for them more than anything these days. They are all miserable people.

My deepest sympathies for your familys' loss. I have been out of the organization for a long time now. In that time, I have had to endure the deaths of my JW Sister, Mother, Grandmother, and Aunt. I was respectful in that I attended the funerals in the Kingdom Halls, sat through the disgusting talks, and felt the scorn burning into the back of my neck from all the people there that I once called family and friends. When my sister passed away, my Mom had the gall to approach me and tell me that there would be a get-together @ my Uncle's house but that if I was there, noone else would be able to come because it would be considered "socializing with me." I told her not to fret and went to a bar and got lousy. It's just a fact, I've found over the years, that you have to counteract their deluded callousness with a certain callousness of your own. I've had to learn to come to expect rediculous behavior from these people. I just figure they can't help it because they don't know any better. I don't take it too hard and let it ruin my day. In time I made a bunch of friends that care for me unconditionally and would never, ever turn their backs on me. These people are my true family. Take comfort in the fact that you have removed yourself from this soul-smothering cult. I am a much better/happier/healthier person now.Try not to let them get to you. Remember, they are all brainwashed and view scorning you and your wife a test of their faith. It's not much of an excuse, but they think they're doing the right thing.
Sincerely,
Breck

That's a really cool story BC. I work in a 90+ year old building in downtown Portland. All kinds of crazy stuff happens in there during the wee hours. Doorknobs rattling, footsteps, whispers, cold spots, strange smells, apparitions (although I've never personally seen one, there has been many reports by employee and customer both.) I've seen hanging glassware fly off the racks.

Would you rather be a sports star or a rock star?
by Dustin ini was thinking the other day, if i could choose to be an awesomely gifted basketball player, or an awesomely gifted singer/guitar player; which would it be?
in the end i decided i'd rather be a rock star.
better parties, and definitely more of a bad boy image.

I suppose it's not unlikely that there are more than a few gay fellers with the name of Ben.

If you could live to 200 - what would you do with your life?
by truthseeker inif a pill or some treatment was developed to allow you to live to 200 - what would you do with the rest of your life?.
let's just say that you started to get old around 175. you're in your 50s.
would you work longer, enjoy life, help a needy cause or travel?.
