Repeating:
HOLY CRAP!!!
hello, i just wanted to introduce myself to everyone here - as i will be posting here.. i grew up a jw and pioneered, was a ministerial servant, ect, i was in the organization for 17 years.
i left and naturally my family did as they were told and cut off all communication with me.
this left a horrible taste in my mouth for not just jw's, but any religion for that matter.
Welcome Father. I just love calling people that btw, knowing how it would repulse my ex-Catholic JW mother. . . I digress. . .
Wow, very happy to have you here. I too look forward to reading you. Being here is like slowly gaining a new family.
Out with the old!!!
i'll start.
when two men are fighting and the wife of one intervenes to save her husband from the blows of his opponent, if she stretches out her hand and seizes the latter by his private parts, you shall chop off her hand without pity.

There's always, 'You must not boil a kid in it's mother's milk.'
Uh Ok, lord, let's not do that. . .

"Eye has not seen (I hasn't???) and ear has not heard, neither has it been conceived in heart of man the things that god has prepared for those that love him."
See, this just flows, they're just words, words for WT to misinterpret to mean that the world, they just doesn't gets it.
"If a word sounds queer and funny to your ear, a little bit jumbled and jivy, Sing: Mares eat oats, and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy."

"What! Do you not know that he who lies down with a harlot is one body with her? 'For the two,' says he, 'will become one flesh'"?
Totally retarded. I have too many of them stuck in my head.
and correct them and say, 'no no you hump, i'm one of jehovah's witnesses', as in, 'i'm not alone fella, i'm one of many.
you mess with me, you mess with all of us.
do you not know that at any time i could summon a legion of other witnesses?'.

Now, 'what, are you a joehoba or sumthin'' sounds quite ok to say.
so my mom sends me this to me and i hate these jw forward things- .
i want to have a good response when she asks if i got it- because i feel like it has nothing to do with jw's, just a coincidence.
i feel like she thinks i hate god, but it has nothing to do with him- it's the religion itself.

and. . .and, Mom? Yesterday, um, I saw a bunny. . . and it was as big as Daddy, and it had a basket. . .
last year on this date... i was burned out as an elder, school overseer, book study overseer, etc... my monday nights were shepherding calls, phone calls, judicial committe meetings.
tuesday nights i conducted the theocratic ministry school and usually had a service meeting part.
wednesday nights i had a bible study with a family from the territory.
Sounds fabulous! Wow all those "naughty" jw things: indulging your kids, making them feel important to you, relaxing with those you love, having a life already--hell, having a moment to yourself. . .how dare!!! I love it!
Thanks for the update, yes, what a difference a year makes. And welcome to the 'A' list!!
to call my mom today on her 70th birthday!!
that's a very big deal, and it will pass like nothing.
besides the fact that she and my dad are totally out of my life, it's pretty sad that such a momentous day should pass without celebration or reflection from friends and family!!.
