  how's the transition going in your life from faithful jw to ex?

  for me, it's pretty good.

  no one has called me and that's good.

  Best Service Meeting Item - ever !

  by BluesBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the listeners thread about service meetings got me to think, ok , so what was the best service meeting item you ever heard?

  we all know and remember the bad ones, but with all our collective years of seat warming on a thurs/fri night, there must have been some good ones.. i nominate the item a few years ago on the dangers of the internet.

  it made it sound so exciting that i went off down the public library to find out how to use this new invention - the rest is history ....

  What's the most thought-provoking novel you've ever read?

  by lucky in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'd have to say for me that it was ayn rand's the fountainhead.

  even though i don't agree with a lot of her philosophy, it definitely made me stumble around in a thought-induced haze for a few weeks after reading it.

  how many ppl here grew up entirely surrounded by jw's?

  all of my family and any friends i have had my entire life are jw's and now that i am df'd i have no association.

  for my ex who also got df'd he's ok because his group of friends (my old group as well) have pretty much faded out, but as for me i have no one.

  i voted for the first time in today's british columbia provincial election.

  what an honour and what a priviledge to elect one's own representitive in the legislative assembly.

  here's how i voted: raj chouhan, new democratic party.

  Hi everybody, I´m a new member from Spain

  by benito in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  first of all, i want to apologize for all the mistakes i will probably make, i m not very good at english, it s very hard for me to think in another language different than my native tongue (spanish, of course!!)..

  i ve been lurking through this forum for a long time but i didn t dare write here because of my lack of knowledge of the language but i changed my mind.

  i think i can give a different point of view from other members of usa of uk, it seems that most of the members are from theses countries.

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just curious... we had a poll here in the uk as to who was the most famous brit of all time.

  i was so underwhelmed that i can't remember who even won it.

  it wasn't churchill, that's for sure.

  Did anyone ever notice just how many 30-40 year escapees there are?

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know a lot of young people leave the 'truth'.

  but i would never have thought that so many of us with 20, 30, 40 years in would be leaving.

  what do you think accounts for that?
