that's a goodie!!
but just curious. are brits getting circumcised these days. When I came to Oz 24 years ago it was usually the norm, and I was surprised as in the UK at that time only the Jews were "done" .......the tide has turned now in Australia, although it is still done. I know It can also be an american custom too! So did it become more popular, or out of fashion?

Oh LT you ARE a stirrer, just look at that cheeky smile on your avatar.
so this is a credible poll, and you will publish the results anon!......
for the record, yup I think gay marriages should be legalised, I've heard of so many "Life Partners", being shafted by their partners family, at their darkest hour. sounds a bit like the witnesses??
Marriage, any marriage is a fine institution.......... but who wants to live in an institution...........boom boom. it's an oldie but a goodie. surprised I'm the first to say it in 4 pages!

Cordy,
I was born in, my parents were both youngsters when their parents joined. I left when I was 21.
You know for many years in the back of my mind I thought just maybe it is the truth,.............but........I just couldn't do it, and didn't want that crap for my three beautiful kids either.
now after finding out about lies, conspiracy, and cover ups. not to mention the roots of the org being based on untruths, I can say that I KNOW it's not the truth, glad I haven't wasted my life to it like my parents have........and still are.........
it's not easy for you I know that torn up feeling inside......
but do you want that for your little girl too.....?
Best wishes D

Jehovah baby: you were my better-half, but just an invitation to the blues.
by tetrapod.sapien inlosing jehovah was like losing a girlfriend that you loved.
you barely had time to flinch when you found out that she had been sleeping with all your friends and stealing your records to pawn off.
that you had just been another sucker on the vine.. when jehovah dumps you, you start looking at yourself longer and harder, and wondering what it was about him that you found in yourself, until all you see there in the reflection is just yourself, dancing with an imaginary hand and waistline.. when jehovah was gone, and the war was over, i realized that all the things that had made me "good", and "moral", and "hate what was bad", didn't mean anything to me anymore.

Feelings about disfellowshipping, etc.
by lostlantern ini was reading a post on here from a young man who will be facing a judicial committee for a sin he committed.
he is asking for advice on what to do.
a lot of feelings came rushing in on me as i thought back to how my brother was unfairly treated by an elder body.
