It will get old. And the irish will be repressed once again. (i mean come on in our wars the best we could do is take the post office.) But our drunken poetry will remain forever..

What Went Thru Your Mind While Sitting at The Meetings?
by minimus ini used to listen but not really.
i'd look at the platform/speaker stand, look like i was paying attention, get antsy, and find another elder to "discuss" something ith.
i just got to the meeting----right before it was to start and if the talkative po decided that his last part was going to go overtime, i'd put on my coat and look at the big clock on my way out in front of everyone and leave for the local bar.

It's like my mind is on fire, when i listen. When i tune out i fall asleep. Mostly i stand in the back and people have the impression that i work so hard i need to stand up to stay awake. When i was younger i spent all the meetings making origami flowers and birds and would give to little kids..

If i remember there is major doubt that mosses wrote "in the beginning" anyway. Isn't there some evidence of it being plagiarized from another earlier or similar document?

Sex Education for FIVE year olds?
by Latte ini read the following article, and found too many points where i felt utterly amazed that anyone can think our children should be exposed to such tuition.
how far have we gone as a people to feel that young children need to be taught such adult stuff?
really, i found many of the points in the article quite worrying.too many to mention.. please take the time to read all of it .

Hmm.. I'm not sure that is the correct way to go about it. However i do believe that education is the key. You can't stop people, including teens from having sex. But i also think that the above system shows some hints of irrationality.

Have you a POSITIVE JW experience??
by ScoobySnax inok sometimes i feel it's good to maybe not redress the balance, but at least can you say something positive that you gained from your jw experience.
so thats what i want you to do, if you so feel inclined.
can you say or mention something that had a positive effect on you when you were a witness?

I can think of a few things. I am a great public speaker, something i use now at work when giving training classes. I am fairly confident about my critical thinking and research abilties. (just don't limit them to WTBS sanctioned material now.) And i have a wife and some good friends.
I think about my first few months at bethel which were the worst of my entire lide. But the months before i left i was able to look around and see people that were truely my friends and liked me for my nerdy self. (most even i am still in contact with.)

What Role Does JWD Play in Your Social Life?
by onesong in.
sometimes i feel like i spend to much time visiting the forum but then i remember that when i left the org.
my social circle went from literally hundreds down to about 5 or 6.. so no guilt at all--i'm glad to to be here and am grateful to everyone of you!

I don't really have need to socialize much.. But occasionally the repressed desire forces me to find bridges to other minds. I'm new but eventually all will love me and despair..

Thanks Joel.. (you cutie..)
Interesting approach Daystar, The idea of satan has always interested me. I think "church of satan" has some good points when they claim to worship themselves. (i tried to contact satan but he was as silent as God on the subject..)
