I think the worst of all is that I sometimes dream I'm a witness again, and in certain situations that I don't agree with like placing watchtowers or having to tell people why I don't celebrate christmas.

What Dub Habits have you kept?(On accident or on Purpose?)
by mama1119 in.
i think that when you are in a cult like the dubs, things stick with you whether you want them to or not.
i still pray before meals and bedtime...anybody else?

It isn't a habit per se, but I don't vote and probably never will.
Isn't that a conscience matter now? No, seriously I have voted in the last two presidential elections and have been on my best friends case to do so who has faded. He dosen't vote because he still holds onto to some ideas of not being part of the world. I told hm that the witnesses now believe this is a conscience matter because I read a post on here from questions from readers or something talking about it.
My question is would a brother be dissed for voting right now?

Do you rather an automatic or manual transmission?
by JH in.
my first cars were all "manual" and they were small cars, cheap on gas.. then later on in life, i spoiled myself and bought automatic cars.. last week, i tried a manual yaris, and wasn't that comfortable with the manual transmission.
maybe it's the fact that i didn't drive a manual car in 6 years.. just wondering if anyone here after driving automatic transmission cars since many years, if you would come back to manual..

78, 24, 22, every single highway I'm ever on around here, quite honestly!
Ouch 78 is a rough go. I deal with 80 everyday and let me tell you... its no picnic.

I prefer automatic, since I'm a coffee sipper in traffic quite often.
What traffic are sitting in? I-80, GSP, Turnpike? or are you southerner?

I know I am a "Honda Whore!"
I just recently became one myself. We bought a CRV in May and I bought my Civic in July. I was a Nissan man.....I got sick of the rust.

Of the 5 cars I've owned since I started driving 3 were manual.
It is getting harder to find some cars in a manual transmission. When my 2000 Nissan Altima (Manual Trans.) was totaled earlier this year my friend the car dealer had a heluva time finding a 2002-2004 honda civic that was manual. 95% of the civics that were at the auctions were automatics. He finally did get one for me and I love it.
Not only does a manual trans offer more control in inclement weather it can also improve your gas mileage by 5% if you drive it correctly (Thats big when you commute from PA to NY everyday.) Anyway the only time i miss an automatic is when I'm stop and go on the cross bronx EVERYDAY!! -

The 'issue' of masturbation. (not a rude thread lol)
by KW13 inforgive me for being nieve here... .
the watchtowers reasons for masturbation are wrong?
they say that god punished some guy cos his sperm was wasted..not entirely true but lets run with that for a second.

If masturbation wasn't intended for God creations why does my dog lick herself? The whole stance on Masturbation is so out there I can't even comprehend it. Has anyone here seen any recent stances taken on Masturbation by the WTS ie publications, talks.

You guys are burning money. Ever hear of Ebay??? People out there want these old books to see the lies in print. It is a point maker though.

COLLEGE!
by RichieRich inoh, so in the midst of everything else, college is goin well.. about 30 % of my high school graduating class came here, so its really just like high school part2.
i have 2 morning classes, and 2 night classes, so that way the majority of my schooling gets done on 2 days of the week instead of 4. last night was my first night in my english 111 class.
i already knew thaqt there was one witness in there, but its someone who i've kept up with, and someone who is cool with me, as i am.

Sounds like a great professor. Hes giving her a lesson in life, and I agree with everyone else about treating her exactly as you would another student in the class. The only thing is, to not be less friendly than you are with everyone else in the group. I've worked places with JDubs after I was dissed and made a conciense effort to involve them in conversation just as I did with everyone else that worked there. Good Luck

My friend said he was talking to him about beth sarim and he said, "OH yeah the witnesses back then used to do a lot of crazy stuff including", and then he said the boat thing. I'm just wondering if its true.
