so when you were df'd, how many halls were you announced in?.
reliable rumor has it that the three in my family who have either da'd or been df'd in the past month were announced in two seperate halls 20 miles apart.. i don't think this is standard procedure?
any thoughts?

Hubby and I and some friends are heading "up north" to go down hill skiing. It'd be nice if it would be a bit warmer out, but we'll have fun.... and we can always warm up in the hot tub!
Hope you all have a great weekend!

Ohhh Yeah... I'm guilty as well.
Can't help but sing and dance along whenever I hear that song.
i've got the #4 tommorrow night about why violent video games are not for christians.
if you think you can seriously write the talk well, with scriptures, write it, and i'll give it.
its tommorrow and i have no clue!!!
Richie - this is a redo of a talk that I gave about 2 years ago.
There is a Watchtower article in the early eighties regarding the devastating effects of PacMan and Donkey Kong. I quoted directly from the article without telling what games were being talked about.
The effects of the games are shown in the article on 8 year old Michael, 10 Timothy and another 12 year old. I mentioned that we do not know how these boys turned out. Are they well adjusted 30 year old's or are they sitting in jail somewhere? We can only wonder......
The sarchasm was spewing forth as I spoke - then I got into a big discussion about conscience.
I mentioned how "STUPID" it was for the governing body to mention specific games in the WT article, because it showed how out of touch they were a mere 20 years later.
I think I got a G........
Hope this helps
i have found a lot of people no longer believe in god or jesus since leaving the organization.. im very shocked at this.
if you dont believe, can you tell me what brought to that conclusion?.
i was told to look at the thread that one of the members in this forum has created, they are very interesting, but i wanted to get a some feed back from different individuals.. thanks!
Yes, I do believe in God. Since leaving the Watchtower, I feel even closer to him than I did before. I am now allowed to worship him on my own. It's a comforting feeling.

started on wednesday...already can't get to all the work that people are trying to give me.... shoulda done this a lot sooner :)
Great news Donnie!
Congratulations!!!!

they will keep the file as long as it is downloaded once every 14 days.. enjoy
Wow - this is bigger than I would of guessed.
After all the comments, pro and con, let me fill you in on more of the story(history):
Two weeks ago, my mother was df'd. I knew that it was only a matter of time before they came after me. I prepared myself for the worst, leaving a video camera next to the door. My initial thought was that the elders who showed up at my door would not subject themselves to being taped and would leave. I had one line rehearsed: "I'm doing a documentary on the authoritarian tactics of high-control groups."
As you can see, they stayed.
I wish I could of rehearsed more.
The caring elders did not call or stop by previous to this filming for over a year. I do recall receiving letters without return addresses several months ago, nothing certified or return-receipt. I must have thrown them away.
I have no hard feelings towards either of the elders. It was not my intent to mock them or be flippant. This organization has jaded me - perhaps that was coming across in my tone.
The questions that I wished to ask them are:
Does a person need an organization to understand the bible?
Are there any doctrines open to discussion within the organization? If so, which doctrines?
Is there any good reason to leave the JW's?
Thanks - I appreciate everyones comments - even PanickAttack!!!!
