  Moshe visits a KH today- did he walk out or was he thrown out?

  2. experiences

  i walked in about 10 minutes prior to the start of the meeting- i sure looked like an unusual visitor wearing my best jeans a golf shirt and my yarmulke.. the first brother who approached me was an slighly built late middle age guy- he gave me a big hello and extended his hand.

  i pulled out my 'end of false religion tract' and showed it to him.

  "did you put this in my door?

  I answered her, "Paul? I have enough trouble pretending to be me".

  Then I realized that my entire life was just pretend. During my formative years, I was told, by the wtbts, what to do, what to be, and what to think. I was never allowed to experience life, make friends, form bonds, be my own person, or develop the life skills that I would need as an adult.

  Now, I "pretend" to be a good father, husband, grandfather, lover, brother, friend, neighbour, man.

  I must admit, it really rocked me to the very core of my being.

  Thanks for listening to an old man's rant.

  my mom called tonight to tell me that she got disfellowshipped!!!!.

  of course to me this is like the greatest news ever and to her its the worst ever so i'm seriously having a hard time being sympathetic.

  i just know this could mean she's out for good and it definately means i've got my mom back.

  Fun family study? Tolerable?

  by Gopher in

  2. beliefs

  was there ever such at thing in jw families, or is this phrase oxymoronic?.

  sometimes the meetings encouraged "variety" in family studies, assigning certain research projects to different family members, or setting up a bible reading as though it were a play.. none of that happened in my family.

  it was just dry question-and-answer.

  An umbrella? WTF?

  Yep. A little treat she got from the wife of a very prominant bethel member.

  However, it was better than the looped wire coathanger the old man used on us.
