i have always wondered what exactly is in the koran, apparently it's written in poetry.. obviously there is a lot of negativity towards the koran from the west, yet many practices that are condemned are not found in the koran, for example women wearing the hijab.. so now that we can read what we want without being told what we can and can't have in our library i thought i'd order a few books.

i just received the gnostic gospels, i have ordered some buddhist transcripts, the book of mormon and the koran from amazon.. ....and why not???

Isn't it mad how the WT says that these books will allow demons into your house?

First sober Christmas

by digderidoo in

jw
friends

hi all.. i just want to post here about my first sober christmas.

i posted here first of all about my alcoholism back in january.

i tried to control drinking for around 3 years prior to this, but last december was a p**s up.

digderidoo

Thanks guys...merry christmas to you all.

This Christmas is going to be so different. On the one hand i feel as though i am missing out as everyone is drinking, on the other hand i will have a good time doing other things. I have bought my boys tickets to a big football (soccer to you American types) game, involving our home town team and another local rival team, i am so looking forward to that with my boys.

This Christmas is going to be different, that's the best way to describe it.

i have a friend who's emigrated to vancouver this year.

a few days ago he invited me over for next year, i am seriously considering it.

i have looked on the net about it, but wondered from anyone here who's been there or living there what's it like?

Looks and sounds good. May well give the place a visit, especially with free lodgings.

An interesting email I got from a DA'd friend I was catching up with

by JimmyPage in

friends

recently i got back in touch with a da'd friend that i grew up with.

i'm going to focus on one part of her email because i think it's relevant to this board.

when i mentioned that i had been on an ex-jw website, she writes:.

digderidoo

I can see what she's saying. Sometimes i wonder whether by reading these types of boards, keeps me stuck in JW thoughts. It's good that some people do not need these boards, JW's have left the organisation for years, long before the internet and managed to move on with their life. I have a couple of ex jw friends who cannot understand why i read these boards.

I have taken up scuba diving and it looks like there are dive sites there too, as well as whale sight seeing trips.
