You...you...people. I blame all of you, every stinkin one of ya. I just looked up and realized I lost 3 hours of my day to this place. It always starts so simply...just a quick glance to see whats up. What has seven006 been saying to wake up the disillusioned? Has dragonlady76 been tossing fireballs at defd today? What's the big question from minimus? Did getbusyliving ever find his shirt?

So why am I drawn here? Why am I posting the same tired subject I see every week? Maybe it's so everyone doesn't forget why this is a great thing. Those three hours I lost probably made me happier than a whole week of vacation before JWD would have. Now I catch myself all the time riding down the highway thinking about things I've read here, and imagining what it will be like to meet some of you one day. Each of you guys can look in the mirror and know you have helped someone else be a little bit more ok with themselves than they were before, touched by something as simple as a hello or a smart-assed comment read here.

There's so many compliments I'd like to put here as a closing statement - but none would be good enough. I am in awe of you.

.

got asked that question some time ago and have been thinking about it ever since.

any answers?

The most fearful thing to me would be to become dependent on others to keep me alive. Other than that, not a whole lot. I think that's when the org lost it's grip on me, one day I figured out that dying didn't scare me at all. When I finally kick it...will be a welcomed rest.

You know...it's just not the same now that he knows...it's so much more fun when they are still buying in to the propaganda by making THE STATEMENT

"now I don't wanna be talking to any of them snaggle toothed knuckle draggin bible burnin jehova witness killin satanic devil worshippin demon lovin apostates, I'm only here for the good associations, (unless you're an apostababe...then you get a good probin'...)"

Who Do You Think Really Knows That The Organization Is BullCrap???

do you think the governing body really knows it??

the lawyers??

the average elder or ministerial servant?

How so, how did they make so much money from it? Just out of interest.

They own rent houses and/or sell cars. They rent these houses to the less fortunate people with no credit or understanding of how credit even works. It's reall simple, they buy a house for, lets say $10,000. Then they rent that same house for $250.00-350.00 per month, and after 10 years, the family owns the house. Same for a car except with payments. Since times do get tight, especially for a JW, it's just a matter of time before they have to miss a payment, then they have to move out or give the car back, then the cycle starts all over.
