  say something philosophical and deep so that we can all benefit from what you're going to say.

  If your a BELIEVING Jehovah's Witness

  imagine i wanted to sell you a painting.

  i gave you a lot of documents and proof that infact it was a valuable constable painting.

  the price was high but for what you appeared to be getting, the sacrifice in money is worth it.. what if, for example.

  I grew up with that "painting" hanging on the wall at our house. I looked at it every single day wondering whether it was authentic or not. When I "grew up" and left home, I found out that you could get that same "painting" at any second hand store without the pain and cost.

  So would it be safe to say that not only have we realized that there is a life outside of the watchtower, but also a life outside of JWD?......as most here are DA'd or DF'd from the watchtower, would or should there ever come a time where we can DA or DF ourselves from this forum?

  Your Advice Needed! What Appears Like My Only Way Out....

  well gang, let me tell you a little bit about what is going on in my world.

  for about the past 2 years i've gone through all the formations and as many of you have known from reading my posts i've pretty much have moved way beyond the watchtower in my mind many months ago.

  coming to this board has helped with the process much, as well as getting my hands on alot of good reading material.

  If your on the "fringes" and on the way out now, why would you want to go back into a religion that obviously you know is NOT the "truth". Come on man, where's your cajones? Get out now! while you still can.

  Ok, so I'm going to my first church service this Sunday.......

  by WingCommander in

  2. friends

  i thought it appropriate that my 100th post be about the attending of my first "worldly" church service this sunday.

  it is at a friends methodist church.

  they are having an open house, so i thought it the best day to go.

  UPDATE: Semi-Back-in-Business

  2. friends

  over the past couple of weeks, i've learned a lot about myself and those around me.

  life might suck, but life moves on.. mom's grip is weakening, prob.

  because she's getting tired, or because she's beginning to realize how things are.. not everything i have done is admirable, but its done.

  What kind of funeral will you have?

  by MsMcDucket in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know that this is a morbid topic, but i often wonder what kind of funeral that i should have.

  i mean, i'm not associated with any religion.

  i don't want a preacher there speaking about the afterlife or trying to recruit followers.

  Well if the JW's have any say about it, Armageddon will come and the vultures will be conducting my funeral, but..............if I happen to die in this "system of things"(JW catch phrase) I guess I'll burn and hopefully my friends and family will throw my ashes in the BBQ pit and have a steak on me!
