Outoftheorg... Dude! You gotta record this dream for us!

i have been dfed/daed for nearly 7 years now.
long story.
anyway my mom has shunned me ever since.
I think she wants a relationship, but she WON'T let go of the WTS and she won't admitt that they could be wrong.
This is her decision, and she has chosen an organization over YOUR KIDS. This is exactly when I let my mom go. Why would I want a grandmother like that for my kids anyhow? God forbid something happen to me and her and her people end up raising him and then do the same thing to him when he grows up. It's too terrible.
I know I may catch hell for saying this, but, good parents do not abandon their children over a matter of religion, period.
Please don't let her make you feel guilty about this. You are not the one doing anything wrong, she is.

as you get older, do you find yourself gravitating towards softer music, or do you find you like the harder stuff as much as ever?.
.
Rock and or Roll...
Winger, Van Halen, Dokken, y&t, Tesla, FastWay, Led Zepplin, Twisted Sister, Guns n Roses, Menniketti, oh you know, the softer stuff.

Or better yet, print it in disappearing ink. That way, anything that is more than a year or two old would just expire automatically.
hahahahahaha
<snif> *coughs* Sorry, I was having a flashback...

of course, different people enjoy different types of humour, so there will be a wide variety of responses, but if you could mention why you find that person funny, personally, it would be appreciated.. i would have to say that i have to pick two people.
i enjoy having humour displayed in a tasteful manner, but with wit.
a life-lesson taught with a laugh is about as good as it gets, imo, even if i am not capable of accomplishing that very well myself.
Do newbies votes count?
Elsewhere, unclebruce and brummie make me laugh a lot with their innuendo and sarcasm. Sixo9 and u/d make me laugh as well, but in a little more serious way.

an interesting story comes out of aspen, colorado.
it is entitled "men admit wrongdoing after menorah vandalism.
" guess what religion they belonged to?
"We didn't know what it was. We thought it was a broken holiday fixture," Goad, a resident of Basalt, said in an interview after his arrest. "We assumed it was broken because some of the lights were out."
I think this would be fitting in another thread just posted, something about how jw's are so intelligent...

Edited to add; these were not kids either. They were full grown men.

?is it not the heavens and the earth that i myself actually fill??
TRANS: may the fleas of a thousand patriachs infest your hairbrush and multiply to time indefinite!
Hmmm... I was wondering where all the fleas came from. Damn that curse, anyhoo!
You crack me up.

i noticed after being a jw for a while that many members of my congregation were having to take antedepressants.
(i counted at least 30 out of 100).
after a few years i too began to have bouts of depression and problems with anxiety.
In my opinion, if JW elders are called to account by the legal system, so should the leaders of any number of other religions!
Steve 2,
Would that it be so... that is one can of worms that the government is not willing to open though, so, for the time being, many suffer in a lot of religions/protected groups. The Catholic church losing lawsuits is a start, but this accountablity thing is going to take some time. The Govt is going to move very slowly on this...

why are there so many intelligent people in the truth, if its clearly hogwash?

How do you define intelligence? Jean
