What a load of JW crap.... I'm sorry you guys are going through this now. But you never know, maybe you gave her something to think about by your calm, measured responses. Or not... Either way, you are giving your kids a normal life. How great is that??!!

it is little understood by christians what a difference there is between themselves and judaism; especially on the matter of whom god forgives and why.. a christian expects to sin against many people in the course of their life, but; proudly boasts that they aren't "perfect just forgiven.
" this is wrong by judaism's ethical, moral and theologic standards.. let me explain why.. in judaism; only the person you sin against can forgive you!.
if you steal from bob; only bob (the injured party) can forgive you.
In Judaism murder is the unforgiveable sin. Why? Because the injured party NO LONGER EXISTS in order to forgive you!
Someone guilty of manslaughter in ancient Isreal had to go to the nearest City of Refuge and stay there until the high priest died. Don't know who forgave him, though, when he came back.

hello all: i have been lurking around this site for over two years.
due to a recent post of someone claiming to be an elder (which has been removed) i have been motivated to post.
i have been around this site for well over two years and have read most of your posts carefully.
Welcome Lurker!
Nice to have you here!

oh.... how the saga goes on!!
i swear we could write a novel about our life exiting the watchtower!!
ok..many of you read what happened..our house was egged and so was my sisters car that was parked here, and "frosty" was attacked!!
I'd say press charges, too. It was more than just vandalism, it was personal. They attacked YOUR frosty for personal reasons. That's kind of creepy, if you ask me.
I'd also find the neighbor who has this on videotape and get a copy!
GGG
unbelieveable!!!.
well, that was unbelieveable!!
just after i posted our latest ordeal with our jw neighbors, and their jw friends pulling down our frosty, egging our house and car, we got a knock on the door!
Amazing!!!
You never know where this might lead!!

prepare to be grossed out.
if you've never been around little boys, you're gonna flip.
my kids had the neighbors over for a sleep over last night.
My son never did the really gross stuff, but as he got older, he's gotten into explosions. He will mix stuff together to make it explode, he's made a potato-gun, then a potato-canon ... so loud that I was sure one of the neighbors would call the cops. Of course, this makes him extremely popular in our neighborhood... Oh, joy... Now I have a garage full of kids (yes, boys) all looking to blow stuff up.

hi i am back.
haven't posted here in a long time.
i even went back to the jws for a while and then quit again.. i lost my best friend to throat cancer in march 2006. we had been very close for 14 years and i was convinced that i would still be able to 'feel' him, or best case scenario, 'talk' to him after he died.
Welcome back, fairchild! I've wondered where you went!!
So sorry for the loss of your friend... and I'm glad you didn't get sucked into the WT for good!
I've missed ya!

so why, according to the feb 15th watchtower is toasting wrong?.
apparantly:.
'toasting today may not be viewed by many as a religious gesture.
Still, there are valid reasons why Christians do not share in toasting,
Did they list any of those?

as many of you know by now - i do not tolerate 'shunners'.
i have done no evil, killed no one, never raped or pillaged any witnesses.
i do not tolerate small-minded witnesses who called me 'brother' for most of 40 years, now acting as if i am no better than sh*t on the bottom of their shoes.
Good for you Jeff!!!
Let us know what happens!!

You have been through so much... I'm so sorry you're having to go through all this again. My thoughts are with you and your husband and your family.
