why are there so many star trek refferences among x-jw's?
like the borg getting assimilated, etc.
i heard before that star trek was very popular in bethel despite warnings not to watch it.
Does anyone remember the episode with Landrew? If people on his
planet didnt agree with him they were assimilated, because they were
no longer considered "of the body" My boyfriend said there were so
many similarities between them and the jws, I used to giggle
nervously when he would say that. Duhhh
i had a follow up phone call from the mormons today wanting to arrange for house visit no.
2. the first visit had been a game where i asked questions and they wriggled about a bit so as not to address them -- it brought back dub memories, i'm telling you.. it went like this.... who will survive the world's judgement day?
only mormons and exceptional individuals.. how about me?
Tatto, they should be right at home when they visit me on thursday, I have a trampoline in my living room!!! Philo, what are some questions to ask them? Or can you provide links for me?
i recently stopped by my father's house to pick up some mail and to drop off my brother's sunglasses.
my father, a zealous dub with 24 years in the collective, asked to talk to me.. for those who don't know, my fiancee and i are having a baby, which for obvious reasons causes some consternation on my father's part: you don't have to be a witness to believe that sex before marriage is wrong.
(if someone wants to discuss whether this is a valid position or not, do it in another thread.
Ded, phone EVERY relative and tell them the truth and how you are being shunned, jws HATE when they are made to look abnormal. And let your father know that every one knows.
oh im going to puke, i did a copy and paste from aisnes db, all real jws.
the part where she says the awake and wt mags surpass a college education really sent me over the edge!.
"i have 5 children.
And another happy poster in the same thread wrote:
"I did my first load of exams and the teachers wanted me to go on to do more Exams that would get me into university but that would have meant me being at school til I was 19-24 and I figured that would be pointless. Why get all the qualifications for a trade in a world that's soon going to dissapear? Matt 6:19 For me it was more important to get qualifications for the paradise i.e. helping people getting to know Jehovah and getting to love him.(there will be loads who never heard of Jehovah yet in the great ressurection)
Ofcourse everyone is different but Jehovah will look after you regardless of your qualifications as long as you keep close to his side Matt 6:33.
you need to be able to support yourself financially ofcourse and not be a burden on your parents or society but we also need to get our priorities in a straight line and sorted out.

"I have 5 children. Sorry to say none of them were able to finish high school because of our very difficult circumstances.
I am happy to say they are all successful in their lives. One daughter is undergoing a very hard time at the moment, but I have no doubt that she will overcome it and bloom again.
Their Father on the other hand Graduated from High school as did I. He is a total loser in life.
It has been my choice to teach my children the value of being educated in many different avenues. For example just reading the Watchtower and Awake can give any one a college education that far surpasses any education they may or may not get in the world of schooling. I have nothing against extra schooling to benefit your livelyhood. But sometimes it is just a stepping stone to growing up.
Just my opinion folks.
It always helps to put forth a positive side in whatever you choose."
