my sisters came home yesterday and said someone was following them home from school, they got very scared and ran the rest of the way home.
they also told me that these two men had also followed one of their friends home a few days ago.
should i call the school and report it or should i call the police station?
Are they taking a faster route home but has less people around? Ask. If so tell them to go a longer way home but on busy streets. It may take longer but less likely to be a problem. Men seem to attack on less crowded streets. The faster way may not be the best.

my last 2 posts have been so sad that i thought i would tell you about something that i remembered once when the jw"s came a calling.
i guess it would have been funny if it wasn't so darn embarassing!
when i was younger i was trying to 'get fit' and had taken to doing aerobics in my loungeroom.

in another thread i started someone askedi still believe in jehovah, but now, i'm having doubts about his name???
is jehovah really god's name?
if he wanted his name to be known, he's all-powerful, omnipotent... i know that he has the power to make sure that his name is used correctly.
Hee!! Hee!! Hee!!Thats a good one...
Go away. Let us big boys talk.
you're in for the same surprise as a lot of us had when found out the truth about 'da troof!'
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao.
The name that can be named is not the eternal name.
The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth.CF.
That passage is one of my favorites. Have you ever read different translations of the whole passage?
It's so poetic and beautiful when you find a good translation.
would someone still mistake you for a witness?
Not when I used to have 5 earrings in one ear and 3 in my right. Oh, not to mention I had my hair down to the bottom of ny chest. Now I look like the pic you see so I guess I do look a little like them again. I tend to wear dressy cloths now....er, maybe it's time to go get me some earrings and grow my hair again.

i'm curious how many people on the board have looked into other religions or spirituality groups since they've left the jw.. what have you looked into?
did you join anything else?
read up on any others?

It deserves it's own. Good questions.

Since it's a different topic I though i'd start a different thread on their question. Any answers?
To me I can't see a supposedly omnipotent all powerful being caring about something as trivial as what particular name you call it, if you use an object to represent it, or anything of the sort. After being away from the jw for some time the obsession with name and form seemed dumb.
Any other comments or ideas? Bring em' on!

When I left I didn't want to allow my bad experiences with them to cause me to prejudge all other religions the way they brainwashed me to. I'm not part of any religion but i've read about many. can't say I am religious and can't say i'm not. Can't say I believe in god and can't say I don't. I don't believe in belief!

. So I read allot of mystical stuff and eastern philosophy/religious stuff.
Ditto here. The eastern religions are vast. You could be an atheist and have a place in it since they don't believe in a creator god in many. They're philosophically deep. Not to mention you don't sit around listening to boring speeches while pretending it's spiritual. But i'm not involved in them.
Some like exjwms stay away from religions and should if they dislike them. And others like tetra and lonelysheep have created B.O.A.L. ( "bite out of the ass of life" religion),lol.
Still others go to other christian religions. And others become atheist. Anyone else?
hey all, i usually pop into my folks once a week so that my son can see his grandparents.
anyway last week my dad asked if i wanted to go to a country show\fete with them on sat , so anyway a couple of days later i emailed my mum to see whether my fiance (non jw) could come too.. this is the email i received today.
as you are going to be busy over the next few weeks, we dont want to put added pressure on you, dont feel you have to come to the show.plus we have already explained the situation regarding mike we dont have anything against him personally, but the situation is difficult for us regards associating with him as your fiance because it would be viewed as our supporting your decision to marry out of the truth.
Hey Es
Sorry to hear about the problems. But the light side of it is that you've found the person for you in marriage (wish I could say the same for me, haha). Maybe it's best to focus on the GREAT thing you have rather than what you don't. I'd throw all my family away for the right woman. So i'm with you in your decision to back off from them for a time. In fact I have an itchy trigger finger for those that disrespect me or harm me . I'll cut them off in a New York minute for crossing the line. My family gets the same treatment as anyone else. Family in fact should be held to a higher standard since they're the ones who should feel an obligation to make you happy and not the reverse.
