what is all the fuss about?
when i was still assimilated (i.e.
still in the borg, but wanting out every second of that time), there was so much emphasis put on microphone handling that it was almost unreal.

after leaving the only religion in the world, what are your views on sexual issues and have they changed more and more since the time you left the borg?
did you go sexually crazy and try many different things?
did you find intrest in porn and want to experiment more?.
I actually did all that stuff before I became a witness. But although I am in a traditional marriage, I am much more accepting of sexuality in general.
It's awkward trying to relay this to my teenage kids, without giving them permission. I do believe that premarital sex is VERY IMPORTANT! I mean, REALLY! Also, all the gays and lesbians I know are the nicest, well-balanced, spiritual friends in my life. I still don't know how to reconcile this with my general respect for the bible, but I've decided to give up on reconciliation. Too much mind-f*cking.

i am completely overwhelmed by the caring that has gone on here in my situation.
both were babtized jws.
for over 30 years.
Movello,
Thank you for sharing about your mother and sister. They sound like very special people. I can understand why you're grieving. Even though it hurts, remember, feelings can't kill you. Keep feeling them. And I agree with the others, a therapist would be very helpful.
Namaste,
Dinky
i just wanted to get a little dialog going with some of the members here who workout.
i know reborn works out quite a bit and i've been doing fairly well as of recently in getting back into a regular exercise regimine.
so far i've worked out everyday for the past 17 days, i usually try to do weight training at least 3-4 times a week and i usually do some cardio everyday.
I play tennis once a week for 1 hour and I play volleyball twice a week for 45 min. each. I love to lap swim - it's so meditative. During the school year, I replace volleyball with swimming - one mile takes me about 50 minutes.

today is the day my mother was born.
she passed away 1 year and 6 days ago.
i guess i need some friends.
I'm so sorry about your losses - your mother and your sister. Is your father still living? Any other siblings? Were there health problems? Please share with us when you feel like it.
Namaste,
Dinky

Industrial? Is that techno? But Eminem says "nobody listens to techno." I went through my CDs last week to see how much techno I have. I love DEVO and Yello. In my car CD player right now is Bowie's Scary Monsters. Man, it's a work of art.

just a quick question, and one that seems to take jehovahs witnesses back a little, an extremely good question to ask a pioneer.
"so, with all your hours of service, how many people have you actually brought into the jehovahs witness organisation?".
um.... genuinely, 100% of my old jw freinds have all been raised in the organisation.
One - in nine years. I still feel really guilty about it too. Thankfully, my kids were still young and easy to reason with on why we were quitting. My 14-yr-old daughter said, "Oh great, NOW we've been in a cult!" All I could say was, "Sorry, honey. I got us out as fast as I could."

Sorry, don't know anybody from there. But, about a month ago, I did see a really cool, documentary-type show on IFC about Levittown, PA. It was cool.
Welcome and good luck with your search.

Hey! Welcome aboard!
Can I assume you like metal rock or not? Is it just me, or is Courtney Love a whoring b*tch? Are those contacts you're wearing? I'm 36 and still love punk rock. If only I had reread the words to "religious vomit" BEFORE I got baptized! Damn!!
