i have been suffering from fatigue, burning in my stomach, and i have always had canker sore issues as long as i can remember.
whether it's from stress or not, i can't say, but i might be getting an ulcer.
the burning in my stomach and intestinal puffiness is getting to be be chronic.
It's good. I happen to not do well with grains and legumes etc, even though I love them. I ate this way very strictly for about 3 months, then started adding back things to see what my system will tolerate. It's been educational.
It's a very healthy way to eat for most people, and may reduce inflammation, which is a big cause of a lot of what ails us. Good luck.
and died at home in panama city beach, florida.
steve imhof, a bethelite in the 1970s and former very active elder who became a very vocal wt critic starting in 2002, was 65 years old when he died.
he was father to three children and two grandchildren.
Oh so sad. I do well remember his posts when I started peeking at this board around that time.
My sincere condolences to his family.
hello all, it is nice to have a forum for former jw's and see i wasn't the only one out there having serious doubts.
my parents got into it when i was about 4 years old.
my family was part of the granville ny congregation.. my dad in time became an elder.
Welcome!
have i ever told ya'll about my grande ma ma?
my daddy's mother?
i can't recall.
Lovely story. Thank you for sharing.
for those of you who have a minute to read this, here is a report from my family trip.. i was in florida for the holidays visiting my older sister and family, along with my parents which were also visiting.. although i've had conversations with my mother about the organization, my sister and her family had no idea of my position in regards to the (un)truth - perhaps because we live far away from each other.
i knew the day was coming.... on my second day there, the whole family was sitting around bs-ing about different stuff, and as usual my mother starts with the "world is getting worse by the day" conversation, followed by approving nods and smart remarks from the rest of the family.
i then politely told them that this was not true, that in fact the world has never been better.
Well played red.
I've done some good old fashioned ribbing about 2014 to a few JW's. They don't find it very funny. We can only hope they stick their brains back in before too many more years go by. **sigh**
nwt revised 1984 1tim 6:3-4 if any man teaches other doctrine and does not assent to healthful words, those of our lord jesus christ, nor to the teaching that accords with godly devotion, 4 he is puffed up [with pride], not understanding anything, but being mentally diseased over questionings and debates about words.
from these things spring envy, strife, abusive speeches, wicked suspicions,.
nwt revised 20131 tim 6:3-4 if any man teaches another doctrine and does not agree with the wholesome instruction, which is from our lord jesus christ, nor with the teaching that is in harmony with godly devotion, 4 he is puffed up with pride and does not understand anything.
That's hilarious. Gopd catch.
Promoting their choice of words, "mentally diseased," has not gone well for them me thinks. One poster here quoted the verbiage in court during a custody battle and won.
i made this chart three years ago, and in light of the 2014 watchtower study i decided it was time for further refinement.. this chart probably won't fit on a regular page.. .
feel free to distribute.. .

Great! I was looking for this a couple months ago.
Thank you for posting.
here's what i scavenged from the most notable watchtower i've ever read.
it may be far more significant than many people realise!.
and before anyone whinges that one or two are 'old light', the fact remains that all of them are rejecting what was once 'inspired truth' from the revered fds, and disagreeing with any one of these (now current) falsehoods would have resulted in your "stoning to death" and shunning by all whom you loved.

say hi to dannalight here.... she made a post http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/46/12/welcome#4909211 but it made more sense to make a new topic for her....
