Oh yeah, I should also add that my boss just gave me over $700 worth of computer equipment today just because he's a nice guy and I'm a valued employee. Yeah, there are all kinds of other things that are pretty screwed up in my life but, man, some things are just pretty sweet right now.

The news I've been waiting almost 12 years to hear
by Jesus Christ inso, i'm out of the organization and have been for about 7 years now but my parents and sister are still in.
i'm about apostate as you can possibly get but for some reason my family still talks to me on pretty regular basis (note to all of you trying to leave out there, make the crazy cult issue your loved ones issue, its nothing for you to be ashamed of).
i called my sister tonight to talk about work and it was one of the best conversations i've had in years.

So, I'm out of the organization and have been for about 7 years now but my parents and sister are still in. I'm about apostate as you can possibly get but for some reason my family still talks to me on pretty regular basis (note to all of you trying to leave out there, make the crazy cult issue your loved ones issue, its nothing for you to be ashamed of). I called my sister tonight to talk about work and it was one of the best conversations I've had in years.
It started off when I was talking about how I work with some JW's who know I'm a big evil apostate and are still friends with me. Turns out that while she still does believe quite a bit, there is a LOT that she doesn't believe but just goes along with it. I was ecstatic over that and then she started gossiping about people we knew and that's when I heard something I've been waiting for almost 12 years to hear.
Back when I was still a (mostly) good little JW going out in service and doing all the other great stuff that young JW's are supposed to do there was one elder that made my life, as well as my sister's life a pure, living hell. In one judicial committee that I got hauled in front of he rode me so much I would have killed myself when I got home he made me feel so bad but didn't because I knew how it would hurt my girlfriend. He was such an ass to my sister that the other elders told him to leave her alone because she was divorcing his buddy's alcoholic, abusive, cheating sun. I'm really not much of a person to carry grudges but in his case, that is the one person in my life who I will never forgive. So what was the news that my sister told me?
This elder is dying. Not just a thing where you can gradually fade away but a slow, painful, death. She didn't know all the details but did know that he has an inoperable brain tumor that's really savaging his body and doing it slowly. He was always on the heavier side and apparently he's rather skinny now with two exceptions. Somehow or another something has short circuited and he's grown huge man-breasts and is also dealing with breast cancer too. He's been sick for the past year or two and still has another year left of pain and suffering. I know I sound so cruel gleefully describing someone's death and if it were anyone else I would NEVER wish for something so horrible to happen to them but, as it stands, I can't think of a better person to die like this. It actually kind of disturbs me that I'm taking so much pleasure in another person's pain, suffering, and eventual death but I can't help it. I'm ecstatic.
I think it's wonderful that my sister hates so much about the org and she's beginning to see the truth about everything. I also am happy about that creature's slow and embarrassing demise. Tonight really is a good night to be me. -

Just tell it to him like it is. Look, you don't sugar coat playing in the street do you? Why sugar coat this? I've got two kids (6&2) and when the older one asks why my family doesn't do birthdays or Christmas I just tell them that there are good churches and bad churches. Unfortunately my family goes to a bad one that has really stupid beliefs.

Man, sorry about the lottery guys! What can I say? You remember that whole water into wine thing I did? Well, I don't always realize when I'm doing that and then by the time I do I don't care. All I know is that sheep is NOT mine (I'm looking at your polka satan).

The only nice thing I wear is my guitar. Seriously, my main guitar probably cost more than all of my other clothing put together.

No, I didn't. It was actually more of a rectangle. Funny, eh? Nobody's gotten that one quite right.

The Tetragram (YHWH)
by RevFranklin inthis is the watchtower's equivalent to the theory of evolution - there is no evidence but it must be so.
in fact all the evidence points to the contrary.
there is not one new testament manuscript known today in which the tetragram appears and there is no evidence of a conspiracy to get rid of the tetragram.

My JW client!!!
by diamondblue1974 inwithout disclosing who or where, i have a jw client who is pursuing an unfair dismissal claim and i have today managed to negotiate a hefty settlement in respect of his dispute (he was actually quite wronged to a degree).
he obviously doesnt know i post here because i dont suppose he would mix with apostates (even though i have done some good work for him).
so i presented the offer to him and some advice as to whether or not he should accept the offer and largely its a commercial decision he faces; does he carry on and continue to incur fees or does he settle now for a decent sum and cut his losses; you can imagine the scenario.
