  Going over my grandmother-in-law's house on Sunday for dinner. Other than that-nothing.

  Whats the difference between outlaws and in-laws? Outlaws are wanted.

  Just kidding, Im blessed with wonderful inlaws and I love them very much.

  i told you i would post, so if you are interested, here it is:.

  we were walking toward the building laughing and happy, and i noticed that we were the only ones in good spirits.

  everyone else was dressed to the nines and somber.

  Thanks for sharing your experience. As an ex-JDub who was raised in the cult, it's refreshing to read and experience and opinion such as your own from an outsider's perspective.

  Personally I always enjoyed the memorial as a kid growing up. I always got a new suit which helped my self confidence. It was a relatively short meeting time wise and half of the meeting was spent on passing the wine and crackers around. I didnt have to pay attention or worry about falling asleep.

  As I got a little older I decided to bring the wine cup up to my face to take a breath in of the aroma. That would always get a gasp or two from nibby noses near by afraid that I was about to partake. LOL.

  Here's one at a kingdom hall where this brand new Ministerial Servant was getting out of hand and even dressed like a cop and busted a brother who forgot to unload his crop od weed before coming to the memorial.

  Damn! I need to start attending meeting again!

  Hello, I'm new - does anyone else feel the same as me?

  i was raised in the jw cult from birth until i left when i was 18(i am now 34).

  i hated it from the beginning, but because my mom was so strict, there was nothing i could do about it.

  (my dad didn't belong to the jws but i didn't get much sympathy or support from him - he didn't want to "rock the boat".

  I agree. I don't think that I'll ever be able to tolerate "organized" religion. I feel as Frank Lloyd Wright felt, that the Earth is my church.

  Im sorry to hear about this situation JH. I know what it's like. My dad has some health issues that have my entire family concerned. I've been trying to appreciate every moment with him, even if it's just a quick hello.

  Hang in there and know that you can find support and encouragement here.

  Normally I'll get a formal visit from some elder from my old hall (I think at my mother's request). But this year.....nothing! Im slightly dissapointed about it too. Lately I've looked forward to meeting JW's and jabbing them with a dose of "truth".

  JWD - Balls of the Year - 2006

  by Dr Jekyll in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ok so its a bit early in the year but hopefully this thread can be kept alive with nominations through the year.

  1st nomination goes to the guy who videoed the elders at the door telling him that he had been disfellowshipped.

  sticking a video camera in their faces and asking awkward questions took balls and he certainly made them look like idiots.

  A question on " 1975 "

  by The in

  2. friends

  i was reading some of the first " topics " on this db and i noticed that a few former elders and publishers .

  were stumbled by this date.... i was born after 1975 and i'd really appreciate any comments from brothers and sisters who were around .

  what i've noticed from personal experience is that many brothers and sisters feel that only " a few " were stumbeled .

  Excellent picture post unclebruice! I can remember being an adolescent JDub studying the ramifications of the "truth" that this picture presented. Althought I old enough to understand the 1975 false prophesy, I certainly did understand the generation that would not pass away.

  When I asked my mother regarding 1975 many years ago I got a simple one sentence responce that many JDubs thought that the end would come in 1975 and that the WBTS never said that, so they fell away from the "truth".

  Thanks for sharing Dan. I've listened to the entire tape. It cracks me up how these guys refuse to listen to reason. It's a matter of faith and what your filling your mind with is destroying your faith.

  I left the borg behind to a constant rhythmn of Tool's Undertow. One of the more appropriate songs from the album is Flood. Here are the lyrics.

  Flood

  Here comes the water.

  All I knew and all I believed
  are crumbling images
  that no longer comfort me.
  I scramble to reach higher ground,
  some order and sanity,
  or something to comfort me.

  So I take what is mine,and hold what is mine,
  suffocate what is mine, and bury what's mine.
  Soon the water will come
  and claim what is mine.
  I must leave it behind,
  and climb to a new place now.

  This ground is not the rock I thought it to be.

  Thought I was high, and free.
  I thought I was there
  divine destiny.

  I was wrong.
  This changes everything.

  The water is rising up on me.
  Thought the sun would come deliver me,
  but the truth has come to punish me instead.

  The ground is breaking down right under me.
  Cleanse and purge me
  in the water.
