Hi Ken, it must have been so heartwarming to see someone you care about, and who obviously cares about you, realise that in the end only kindness matters. She sounds like a special person, with a kind soul. It is important that we can be with our loved ones at times like these. All the best, and please keep us updated on how she is. luv froglett

Organised religion is getting a bad rap all about town, but the extremist elemenents draw even further disdain...the WatchTower is certainly one of these extremist groups, although you might not know it on the surface...frog

There must be something going on with Mexican restaurants, cause the same thing has happened to a friend of mine in my hometown! We grew up together and both left the org at different times, when I visit my hometown we often get together. The last time we did this (end of last year) we went to a Mexican restaurant and were placed right near a table of dubs we grew up with. They couldn't even look us in the face most of the time, we had to pass them to visit the ladies room, so we put up a united front and went together. They of course all looked down as we smiled and said hello as we went past. As far as I'm concerned we looked by far happier and content than they did by a mile...I felt sorry for them...

Back in the field
by mtbatoon in.
if you weren't known to the local congregation and had a list of dubs home addresses in your area, would you go reverse witnessing door to door?

That label of an "apostate" projected on to "us" by the dubs is completely unwarranted and unjust. I can't imagine that too many of us would consider wasting more of our time on people who aren't ready to acknowledge we have a right to an opinion. However, it is of coure occassionaly pleasant to reflect/imagine such a possibility with absolutely no intention of following it through, it goes a long way to highlight inconsistencies such as those mentioned above. The dubs of course have the "true" religion and therefore hold the only licence to preach as Jesus did...makes you laught don't it?!

Did being a JW turn you into a nymphomaniac?
by ValiantBoy insince we all like to blame our witness past for so much... did any of you because of your repressed days as a witness become insatiable once you left?.

A friend of mine in the faith was constantly being reproved for "fornication" and was dis'd 3 times for it, poor thing, you always want what you can't have. I wouldn't say being JW made me a nymph, I think my behaviour was pretty darn normal for a teenager/early 20's something (had a couple of "worldly" boyfriends). After I left the org I was still too darn concervative for a while, despite absolutely loving it, I still felt bloody guilty getting it on with my then boyfriend of 18months...that's all changed now though...froglett/ of the frogs like to hump class hehe

Whats the record for the most D-Fings for one person?
by new boy ini dont't know------------------ but it could be the sister of my old pioneer partner.
she got poped 7 times---------------------and keep caming back for more.. the problem was she liked to have sex.
since she was crazy, no one would marry her, and she could marry only in the lord, of course.

I was reproved 5times between 16-21! It helps if you move congregations and states inbetween of course, so there's not such an extensive collection of history;-) 7 times d'd though, that's truly outrageous. It really is such a cruel torment for these poor singles who can't find a suitable marriage mate in the org, especially for a "sister" once you've been reproved for "fornication" you're pretty much marked, which must make the search even more difficult...it's such a pathetic unhealthy sister...damn them all I say...

So what is Debil da Satan doing these days...?
by upside/down ini mean (assuming dds as "christianity" teaches) what is his typical day like... what does an eons old entity with almost "almighty god" like intellect, and lots of power, legions of deemunz and do all day (of course i'm assuming his day never ends as he can fly about the earth and keep up with daylight)?.
where is his "rebutal" to all the one sided info we get in da bible... certainly he has a beef and a right to talk openly about it (like us).. please don't say he's out to get all the dubs (oops i meant the 144k).
he's already got them in his back pocket.. i really would like to know... .

i think satan da debil would be a great candidate for the "this is your life" program, he is afterall so misunderstood:-( I'd tune in for that...if you watch Southpark you'll know that Satan was Saddam's B*tch, so I'm guessing with Saddam now in the hague (??) Satan's probably out on the prowl?...sorry couldn't think of anything orginal?? frog

Have you expanded your entertainment choices post witness?
by Thechickennest inwe live in a small ranching community in western south dakota where chicken roping on saturday nights at the local redneck steakhouse tavern is the feature entertainment in town!
if we drive about 80 miles north we have more choices.
without 5 meetings, door to door, assemblies, study, study, study, etc, etc, that kind of frees up quite a bit of time.
