That sounds like me, except for the sex and drugs part. My folks took me out for my 9th grade year, all the usual excuses: bad association, teachers don't know anything....etc. When I went back for 10th grade it was almost like I had never been in school before.

How many here were homeschooled?
by Highlander in.
i'm quite new here, so i apologize if this topic has been covered.. the reason i ask this,, i was raised in the midwest.
a majority(more than 50%) of the children at the local congregation were homeschooled.. the end result was that these homeschooled kids had social problems, found it difficult making and keeping friends and were completely out of touch with the world.. as these kids became adults, rarely did they stay on as witnesses and usually went to the other extreme,, you know the old saying,, sex drugs and rock n' roll..

That reminds of the old corny saying, "don't point, because you have three fingers pointing back at you." Always hated that saying but it seems apt here.

To DA or not to DA that is the question
by lola28 inhi guys, as most of you know i have been inactive for a bit ( august of 2004 was the last time i turned in time) i changed congregations in december and have pretty much faded.
last night i had a talk with someone and he asked me why i was still in, why not just da?.

I faded thinking that I might go back. Now I never would. I don't feel any obligation to now tell them anything whatsoever. If they wanted to meet with me for a JC I might for my own entertainment and would even tell them that. I guess my advice to you is that you don't owe them anything.

JW botany
by Robert_V_Frazier inhttp://www.christiandiscussionforums.org/v/showthread.php?p=27481#poststop .
in which a gung-ho jw apologist tells us that an adult plant has different dna from that of the seed it grew from.. .
because grown-up plants don't look like big seeds, and the watchtower once quoted from an article in the world book encyclopedia mentioning "chemical changes" in a germinating seed!.

Well, if he saw it a Watchtower, then it must be true.

I bet Blondie looks great with a goat. I myself grew one just about the instant that I left 11 years ago and then about 2 years ago I let my hair grow out, its shoulder length now.
