is there something we can do for linda as a group?
purplesofa sent a nice card from jwd.
is there something else we can do to support her and trev right now?
i am new to this site but have been lurking for a while now.
i have not told my story yet because i am in the middle of a situation i had hoped to avoid.
my wife is still a jw in good standing, my two sons were dfd a year ago.
Welcome fadingELD (and google).
I wish you all the best in whatever you decide to do. I think if you get df'd and have a fantastic relationship with your df'd sons, your wife will soon be so jealous of your relationship with them that I think you may be able to get her round to your way of thinking.
Softly softly catchy monkey - as the saying goes.
mine was an old fiat 127, i bought it 1983 and it was at least fifteen years old then!
the seats were vinyl and there were no rear seatbelts so i could send my girlfriend and her sister flying with each bend in the road!
it wouldn't go above 55mph and was rattling like rollercoaster when it finally got there.. the rear window fell out and it finally croaked in puff of blue/black smoke.
I had a little mustard coloured Mini 850. I even remember the number plate - CDD 527K.
I loved that car and I named her Fifi.
i posted this thread last week.

Well done Julie. Being df'd will be the best thing that has ever happened to you. It is definitely the best thing that has happened to me.
Here's to freedom.
can anyone explain why the wts claims that faithful dubs will be resurrected soon after armageddon when to the contrary the book of revelation plainly states that the resurrection of anyone other than the saints will occur after 1000 years?
that is 1000 years after the saints begin ruling on earth which will occur at or shortly before armageddon.
let's remember that rightly or wrongly most dubs do not believe that they are in the class of the saints or anointed as they call them.
Did anyone stop to think for a minute. The words in Revelation are all gobble-de-gook. NONE of it is actually going to happen.
There will be no Armageddon.
There will be no thousand year rule.
There is no Satan.
There will be no resurrection.
There will be no paradise.
There will be no happy ever after.
Just enjoy life now and put that Bible down. It will drive you crazy!!
these are just a few: how about this one, brothers the time left is reduced", do not take liberties with the sisters", charley calls", brothers and sister do not mark on the sides of your bibles", do you have secret sins", do not be saving seats", you will not be used if you wear a beard," parents are your children setting with you", are you buying out the oppertune time for your selfs", only use the motels the society wants you to use", and on and on like cults do.
"THE TRUTH"
ok folks - here is the deal, i gained my weight back (and some more) after i got my taste buds back from last summer's cancer o' fun.. i'm calling this operation key chain because weight watcher's gives away a key chain if you lose 10% in 11 weeks.. i'm now 172 lbs - 26.9 body index.
i want to lose 12 lbs by july 1st.. who wants to join me?
post your goal here and we'll do progress updates.. my "program" is this.. 1 cup of cereal in the morning.
Hi I'm one step ahead of you, I joined Weight Watchers 9 weeks ago and have already lost 13lb. I still have 15 to go though, then I will weigh 9 stone and then I will be happy with my weight.
Thanks for telling your story. I'm glad you are out of the organisation now and that you have a loving husband who knows exactly what you are going through.
If you want nothing more to do with your family, it will be their loss and not yours. They have chosen to reject you but to support and love your paedophile brother! That really sums the jw thinking up doesn't it. You're better off without them, and besides, you have all of us now so it makes no odds.
something i've noticed when reading the various threads on this site, is that so many people seem to be afraid.
their scared of being disfellowshipped, scared of being shunned, scared of not being accepted by the congregation, scared that people may find out they don't believe anymore, scared if anyone was to find out they use this site.
there is advice for people on how to avoid being disfellowshipped, if they may have "said too much" about their thoughts, or how to fade without being noticed.. i don't understand this.
Some people hide and some don't, like myself.
You haven't been exactly fully open with us though Adolfius. Why have you not entered your age and where you're from, they should be showing up under your avatar. Also you haven't filled anything about yourself on your profile. Are you hiding a little bit?
