  my sister-in-law emailed me, and asked me about some of the sites i have visited.

  how did i find out about the un, and what doesn't support the 607/1914 thing.

  apparently they haven't been to the meetings in four months.

  Mrs.Jones....it is illegal in the U.S. to discriminate in hiring and employee because of race, religion, sexual orientation and/or disability. Be very discrete when interviewing...the JW's seem to know all the rules, regulations and angles of "ceasars's law" and use it when it is to their best interests.

  Great Experiences- I was serfing the net ad came across APOSTATES

  wow, yeah i was looking fr the theocratic ministry school oral review questions and i came across an apostate site!

  the site was www.jehovahs-witness.com and was just fill of retarded apostates!

  they were not only using a domain name and header name that denotes a conection with the actual watchtower society, but where using it to blasphem the jehovah's true organization in order to help people break away.

  Thank you Netty, I really wanted to use my red pencil...you beat me too it! Well not Mr./Mrs./Ms. Visitor......are you counting the time you are spending on the internet? Have you told the elders you are using the internet so much and that you discovered this site and posted?

  I too went on the internet under Jehovah's Witnesses......I was not at all confused into thinking a site that states it is for RECOVERING Jehovah's Witness, was in fact an OFFICIAL SITE for the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. Please take your brand of Christian Love and Caring and .....no never mind, I won't say it...I crawled out of the dirt years ago and won't go back in.

  Have a nice day!

  i feel really sad and worried today.

  yesterday, the police announced that those evil people things who carried out the london bombings came from my own county of west yorkshire.

  on my way to work today, i walked through the market hall where there are both muslim and non-muslim stall holders.

  Sad Emo,

  So sorry you feel this way....you are in our prayers and while I agree with all of the above.....I don't care or agree with Mary's tone of voice (typing, whatever). It seems to me we've all come out of one group of judgmental bigots and we don't need to keep that attitude. I agree with the comment "be vigilant not vigilante's".

  Why does Grissom not show any information other than his name......Is he afraid the congo will find out he is posting on an apostate board....wait a minute...will they find out he is on the internet? Shame on you Grissom..at least let us know where you're from and a little background. If things get to tough or because of your visits to thsi site the "demons" invade your home....just say "Jehovah Save Me" three times while clicking your heels!

  Gee, I'm glad I don't go any more......I'd really miss the 8 day DC's in New York City...working in the food prep tents and watching the brothers (CO's etc.) having their beer parties out of the trunks of their cars. It used to be that the US Military would come and watch how the JW's fed thousands in a couple hours and cleaned up afterwards all for .65 per meal and all labor volunteered!

  If you were bullied at school for being a JW kid..

  by mtbatoon in

  ..would you thank the bullies now?.

  i must admit that the social pressure was a large factor in my exiting.

  though it was hell at the time i'd rather that than life as as dub now.

  I look at all your ages and chuckle! I'm sure you were all bullied in one way or another....however when I was growing up in the truth (late 50's early 60's) we didn't get bullied, they just beat us up....unfortunately, a lot of the anit-hate, anti-discrimination laws in affect in the US today were earned on the backs of the Blacks and the JW's.

  If I went into detail on the abuse my brother and I took (because JW's don't fight back) we'd be here all day. Do I thank them, No way! All I can remember of my youth as a JW was worry as to whether or not I'd be able to stand in a hot field all day and not succumb to saying the pledge of allegience (after all the JW's in Africa were going through that every day according to the examples in the WT and Awake and at assemblies).

  Wait, maybe I do thank them, because as soon as I got out on my own....I faded....!

  I'm going to JW Hell, I'm going to die.....

  by riotgirlpeeps in

  i thought this would be kind of fun to do is list some of the offenses that i have committed according to witness beliefs.

  i thought it might be mildly amusing considering the lack of emphasis that any of these things are wrong according to the majority of the population.

  i'll limit myself to ten.

  At my age I've probably done most of what has been previously listed with the exception of the Protitute thing of DannyB's and was married when I had my kids1 But other than that, I've dabbled in a little bit of everything....I think the worst" SIN" I've committed that will send me to hell is....not only did I cover for a friend of mine (male) who was a baptised JW..but I blew the lid off when his family tried to say the died of complications of Diabetes...I made him a quilt and sent it to Washington, DC and then sent them a picture of it...he died of AIDS (one of the first in this country) and his *#s hole family members tried to cover it up so he could have a "WItness Funeral".

  No wait, maybe that wasn't the worst....maybe it's that I, as a middle aged heterosexual female can accept fully my 17 year old daughter's declaration that she is "Gay" and still love her and let her share my home!

  It looks like if I'm gonna burn in JW Hell, I'm gonna have some really good company! I'll bring the ice water!
