Taking a little break
by jookbeard inbit fed up tbh , the recent lies and slander levelled against me which has remained unanswered has left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth, plus probably spending a little bit too much time on web forums, see you all in a while.

What if those df'd......could they?
by angel eyes ini've recently seen that some teaching have changed.
so my question is, if someone was df'd for instance for divorcing there partner for having gay relations and this was years ago when there wasnt grounds for it, so they were df'd, if now because the understanding has changed, could they appeal and be reinstated with a public apology?.

The WT has never made a public apology for anything... not miracle wheat, not organ prohibition, not child abuse, and certainly not this. Think about it, does "God's sole channel on earth" apologize?

Sylvia... I've been thinking more about vollunteering somewhere, but haven't made the plunge. I've been in contact with the county's obesity prevention program for kids, but they want me to do policy stuff from my desk instead of real-world stuff that would actually make a difference. We'll see.
FF... let me know when you're gonna jump in front of that bus...
VIII, thanks for the links, I'll check them out.
JD: Some days I wish the boot would come... some days I feel like just up and walking out... but that would be imprudent...
Outlaw: my boss isn't even around here anymore! He's already moved on to better things and left the company to run itself....

I'm seriously here... I hate my job so much I feel like sobbing. Im in my office, in front of the most demoralizing and worthless work in the world, have zero human interaction... by co-worker on the other side of the office always closes the door between us whenever I sniff. I guess sniffing is just really bad manners or something. Plus, the FUCKING JACKHAMMER out on the street outside does NOT stop. It's been going for months, literally. Every day!!!
The company I work for is on the ropes... and its only a mtter of time before I'm given the boot. Some days I just wish they'd get it over with so I can go home, collect unemployment, and be forced to go get another job.

Who Do You Think The Most Positive Influential Person Of All Time Is?
by minimus indo you have a personal favorite as to being the most influential and positive person that you appreciate?.
some say fdr and martin luther king or churchill should be credited for making the world a better place.. some think al gore's enviromental crusades make him a leader.
some love obama for trying to set the world into a more positive direction.. who would you say made a truly meaningful positive impression on you?.

I'm sure Ghandi will be up there somewhere. As far as "all time," who knows? Maybe the first ape who created fire.

by jambon1 indid anyone else feel this way & if so, at what stage in your time as a jw?.
i remember i must have been in the org for about 6 or 7 years.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe, just maybe, BEFORE, not after, a person had considered many paths in life, they came to the conclusion that the JW's had the best path for THEM?
Uh, yes... not sure what your point is here.
Now, if ex-JW's viewed their current beliefs with the same critical eye, they would be looking for the FAULTS in their current belief system, and would leave it, because where ever there are humans involved, there are faults.
Again, I don't quite follow you. your statement seems to be contradictory, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and just say I don't understand.
To tell you about me, here is the short version: I am an inactive J.W. There are things that occur in life that are unexpected and unplanned for. Those are the things lead to my inactivity.
Let the assaults begin.
"Assault"? I'm an inactive JW as well. And yes, I have experienced unexpected and unplanned-for events in my life. Again, what are you so defensive for? I get the impression you're angry and pissed off about something, but you're beating around the bush here.

Marijuana---Is It That Bad?
by minimus ini've never smoked tobacco or a joint in my life!
i know some regular pot smokers and they're pretty cool people.
they typically say pot is better than alcohol and that it should be completely legal.

You would think if someone couldn't pass a field sobriety test, that would be enough of a measurement.
LOL. Good point. Police will always want MORE ways to arrest people. So even if someone passes a sobriety test, if they fail at a breath or urine, they can still prosecute.
However, I'm not sure I have a problem with it in the firs tplace... I have no sympathy for people who put other people's lives in danger.
