I feel like a deustch. GF and I broke up....
by feenx inso as many of us have experienced over the years since being out, out past can certainly play a role and often does in our present lives.
my past has crept into my relationship, and as my gf did not feel equipped to handle and/or talk about any of it, this was a large factor in what led to our breakup this weekend.
i've felt like i'm going to puke since about 4 a.m. saturday.

Hmmm.
as much as I empathize and understand how hard that must be for someone who's never really had to endure something like that to hear about it, I still need my partner in life to be ok with listening to me and hearing me talk about it.
That's fine; it is perfectly fair to expect support during the down times. Who is to know how bad the bad times really are though, except her? You might behave worse than you think. Then again, she might just not be very tolerant. If it's something that broke you up, that should tell you both a lot.

Moral Values of an Atheist
by hamilcarr insome thoughts spinning through my head .... what does it mean to be an atheist?
it means you cannot imagine your homosexual neighbor being slaughtered by a loving god at judgment's day, it means you don't consider the primitive tribe described in numbers 31 that slew midianite men and raped innocent virgins to be god's first covenant people, it means you don't believe mankind is so perverted that it is in need of salvation through a man who came 'not with peace, but with a sword', it means you have high moral values that apply not only to the members of your denomination but to all men.. h. .

My moral anchor is the law. My ethical anchor is hard to define, but I know it when I see it!

Accessibility to guns to blame for violence?
by 5thGeneration inwith all the talk about the increased violence in schools and among society, it still surprises me that the accessibility to guns argument often tends to trump the cultural argument.. maybe i'm out of touch but showing saw iii uncut on hbo at 10pm and releasing the most violent video games in history and the marketing of violent and perverse music, these are the things to me that desensitises young people first and then may trigger some hurt and unstable kids long before they go and buy a gun.. okay, ready to be blasted (pardon the pun)!.

Guns don't kill people. People with guns kill people, using guns. Or something.

Badges will be scanned upon entering site. Letters and elders will be sent to those who miss.
I'm thinking that it's time that every publisher gets issued with a number and a barcode. It would make their accounting SO much easier.

Hmmm, yes I remember being So Sure about The Answers To Life, but I don't miss that feeling because it was a delusion and it made a huge fool of me. I had some fun times with a large social network, but don't miss them because it didn't take long to realise exactly how little like friends they actually are. I thought that I had a close, loving family, but long before I was out, they'd pretty much let me go anyway and I hadn't been able to count on them for any kind of support for years. The meetings were, well, you know. I had hated going out on the preach all of my life. No, I don't miss anything from that life. I'm still hurt by the rejection and probably always will be, but I'm so glad it's all behind me now.
How can you miss the accolades? It was the praise and respect of small-minded delusionals. What's the big deal about that?

Even if we only said good things about JW's we wouldn't be allowed to post
by JH inlets imagine for a moment, that we were all jw's in good standing here, and saying nice things about the watchtower, i'm sure the watchtower would discorage us from coming here and posting.. why is this?.

The first couple of years, this site was a for-real JW site. The original members either crossed to the dark side or left.

JW Ex-Wife taking daughter out of school for holidays
by LowTech inwhen growing up, i don't remember being taken out of school for much, but my ex-wife takes my daughter out for so many holidays.
i just found out that she took her out thursday and friday for valentines day.
is this even legal?

'Holidays' don't happen here. We were only ever humiliated by sitting out of ANZAC day events and the easter bonnet parade.
Give her play money on non-holidays. She'll notice the difference.
