in my particular case, it was emotional damage because individuals consider me .
to be fairly intelligent and clear minded.. what is your perspective about this matter?did the watchtower cause mental or emotional damage?
I think, had I not stopped attending meetings and being controlled by a gang of thugs known as elders, I would have had a nervous breakdown or serious depression.
The effect they have on me now, without any controlling influences is bad enough.
As many of you know, I am still under a 'gagging order' at least until April 2007
I keep a complete record of everything that goes on, not just on my computer, AND I WILL publish in due course.
Any questions will be answered by pm if you wish.

your intentions are good - entirely manly.
you step into the shower intent on grabbing a skin-drying manly soap - dial or zest or similar.. then it catches your eye - that little 'womanly scented' bath-bar.
you try and reach past it - to get the large man-size bar on the soap tray - but inexplicably you pick up the lady's perfumey soap.
This is The Scent of a Woman:
Flavors and aromas secreted from an aroused woman's g*******a are so packed with chemicals and pheromones that they make a powerful biochemical aphrodisiac.
NOT bars of Soap!!!

i feel just awful~!.
the wife and i showed up with our red books and bibles at the new brother's house ready for the study, but nobody was there.. anyone else ever have this happen?.
i understand that the group is huge, us, the new guys, the conductor (a bethel reject), and three generations of dubs who live in the same house, but are three family groups too much to keep track of?
In the early 50's, very new in the truth, could we have the group in our house?
All arranged, nice and tidy, we wait and wait.................nobody ever turned up!!
But never an explanation, no apology and no mention of it,
We were too young and stupid (or polite) to ask.

I am sure that ALL 1963 summer conventions were actually 8 days!
Mornings on the service and sessions in the afternoons and evenings, I saw the program only a few days ago.

armageddon according to you know who was coming in 1975, how many armageddon bangers (a ref.
to the purchase of a car that would see you through to armageddon,) how many have you purchased up till now?
i have had 8 and counting.. kt.
We've had 5 and 2 company cars
Perhaps for your USA audience you should have called it 'An Armageddon Lemon'
A lemon is a defective car that, when purchased new or used, is found by the purchaser to have numerous or severe defects not readily apparent before the purchase. Any vehicle with these issues can be termed a 'lemon,'.
'Banger' entered into Google brings some rather risque answers!
n.
Chiefly British.A sausage. Wall's sausages
A noisy old car.
A firework that explodes with a sudden loud noise.
Bangers an American sporting goods distributor
Bangers is another one of those Davy's underground wine bars in London, with sawdust on the floor, matronly waitresses and spotted dick for dessert.

has technology helped your marriage, for instant instead of the newspaper stuck between you and the wife at breakfast, it is now the computer thus allowing "cross" communication between you both, and what about the television zappa who is in charge of that, obviously the man of the house, thus saving much time and effort for the poor wife who had to keep getting up to change channels.
the dishwasher machine has now taken over in the kitchen, where once you would do this chore happily together???.
what more !!

need new batteries, ZAPPER's need new batteries,NO, Technology doesn't help at all. As for setting up Video/tape/DVD recorder's, that's a minefield!!
Don't forget to recharge the mobile .

do jws suffer from foot and mouth?
the reason i ask this, is whenever i see them in the street, they seem to have lost the ability to speak and immediately look down at some problem they are having with their feet.
has anyone else noticed this, is it a medical problem and whats more, can it cured?.
Strange that, happened to me recently. People who have always spoken to me and asked my help, suddenly have this problem, I never thought it was 'foot and mouth'.
Just feel sorry for them, they are obviously in a very sad state.
