Scully--that's a great analogy. It's weird but even though I wish my sister would leave the JWs, at the same time--she has emotional problems and I worry that if she left it, she would end up in a mental institution. I think her little world is what holds her together.

Dubs are the WALKING DEAD
by GetBusyLiving inlately i've just been getting contacted quite a bit by depressed zombie like cultist's.
i thought i would welcome being contacted by dubs after i da'ed but i actually really find it annoying!
they all drop comments like "nothing ever changes.." "i don't really go to the meeting's that much.." "i'm just so bored.." "if i didn't have meetings i could go back to school" "brother shitbag is a jerk.. i'm so sick of him.." "the elders treat me like a child" blah blah blah.

Meat eating preditors will eat grass like a lamb!
by jimakazi ini am always a little pi***d when i see jw illustrations showing lions and tigers in the close vacinity of samll children, lambs and other meaty treats with no safety barriers.
[why this is paradise is beyound me - these anaimals smell].. so if we assume an intelligent creator, why would he create large meat eating preditors if he really ment them to eat grass?
every thing about their make up is about specialistation, from teeth, to jaws, to how their stomachs work.

"Ah, yes, they smell now, but only because of imperfection. In the new system, shit won't stink. It'll be perfect - probably mint flavored or something."
LOL man sometimes you apostates really crack me up

It started out as just a walk ...
by kwintestal in... and it turned into an animal rescue.. it was a beautiful day here, so after supper my wife, two kids and myself decided to take a stroll in the woods nearby.
you have to drive a ways up an out-of-the-way road to get to this trail and we had a great time on our walk.
so we're headed back to the car and hear a faint, "meow".

Congratulations on your anniversary! You should be very proud of yourself. Family members can be very stressful, I'm finding the older I get the less I want to be around my siblings because of their negativity & dysfunctionalism. I'm glad they live out of town.

After four years, still cleaning up the trash.
by TemperateWarrior ini have a question that i'd like to get feedback for:
how does a person get their finances in order after leaving the dubs?
i've left the b'organization with my family intact.

You should take community college classes--they are not as expensive. Maybe you could talk to a career counselor. As for your wife not working--that is pretty difficult these days unless you are making big bucks. You might think about maybe applying for a grant for a technical-type school in computers or something like that. If you have a family to support and are not making much money--you should be able to get some financial aid, but I'm talking about the US and I'm not sure where you are from.
I'm in a terrible financial bind myself right now, it's very frustrating. I wish you much luck!

Covert Field Service tactic
by doinmypart inhere's an idea i thought of for those of us still associated with the jws and going in field service:.
1. write the url to this site, quotes, silentlambs, etc.
on post-it notes (little yellow sticky papers).. 2. put the post-it notes inside the folded portion of a tract, or first page of wt magazine.. 3. leave the tract or magazine at not-at-homes.. in the chance the householder peruses the litter-ature rather than trash it, they will see the note and possibly visit the referenced website.

I love your sneaky ideas! I made up my own tracts and left a couple on the Public transportation this week. I don't know why I feel like I have to sneak and do it, I guess because I don't want to run into anyone who is sympathetic to the JWs.

Ok I need to vent here. What really is pissing me off right now is that I own property with siblings and cousins I've never met, it's been in Escrow since January, but because one of my cousins has a mental illness and refused to sign papers 4 months ago I don't know when I will see my money--also because about 4 different attorneys have become involved because of the stupidity of my relatives. Meanwhile--my credit is going down the toilet, my husband took a HUGE cut in pay for a new job, my child support quit coming because my ex likes to switch jobs every month, I have 2 payday loans out right now to put food on the table, my credit is maxed out, my cell phone is about to be turned off, my daughter just graduated and I couldn't give her a decent gift, all my utilities are a month behind, my car payment is behind, etc etc etc. I had to leave work early yesterday because I literally felt sick from stress. It feels like the damn roof is caving in on me and I feel so bleepity bleep frustrated. My well-to-do cousins didn't want to sell the property in the first place because of nostalgia surrounding my grandparents property, even though the first offer a year ago on the property was ONE MILLION dollars--3 times the value of the property. Meanwhile, my pothead brother who doesn't bathe or ever clean his house or even hold a job when he doesn't have to, had been living rent-free on this property for the last 12 years while I've been working my ass off to support me and 3 kids as a single mom. Now I'm married and am even worse off financially.
Ok I'm done venting now. There was a court hearing on this stupid property yesterday and so now I'm waiting to hear if I am ever going to receive my friggin money.
