i'm getting married on oct.13.
i only have less than two months to get ready for the wedding, and i didn't have anything ready last week.
as you may know i am da'd.
Of course you can have my hugs, as much as you like;-)
Sorry to hear of your ordeal, life sucks doesnt it?
Try not to let it spoil your wedding though! You know you didnt do anything wrong, love should be unconditional, but obvious it isnt!!
Take care,
*hug*

i just found this on the site listed below and was surprised by the statement in bold underline.
does anyone know about this who could give more info?.
interestingly, although comments to the effect that "jw's are the happiest" were at one time commonly made, they have not appeared in witness publications, to this writer's knowledge, in a number of years.
Trotafox:
It doesnt surprise me at all, as many J.W. are very depressed But ofcourse they will never admit it! while still active!
Ask them f.i. about suicide rates and he/she will immediately tell you they have the lowest rate!!!
Take care,
life here in our community has been tough lately, so i thought i would put up some fluff.
my question to you is: what is your favorite way to eat eggs?
now, my preference is hard boiled eggs in a salad, an egg salid sandwich, and the royalty of all egg meals - eggs benedict.
Sorry Larc, I dont like eggs at all!
a poster( don't ask who said, it i don't want argument with the person) here implied a while ago that many of the xjw here no longer believe in god because they cannot accept the "fact" that they willl be destroyed during armageddon.
in other words you are looking for ways to discredit that you ( you.
meaning anyone) will be destoryed.

JWs are in a minority and have some Bible principles.
Thank god for that!
But they show love and get along better than any other Religion
Oh yeah, right, thousands of them really love children!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We' ve all seen the amount of abuse-victims!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Getting along better with whom??? Their so called brothers and sisters?? They HAVE to Bleep, as they are NOT allowed to mix with normal people!!!!
But they are getting along so well that when one gets DF, they all SHOW their LOVE by shunning him/her, so it's all FAKE, a LOAD OF CRAP and BULLSHIT on top of that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Save your breath Quotes, Bleep is never going to answer your questions, as I thin the answers are not inthat little book called " reasoning from the scriptures" so then he has to think for himself, something J.W's are taught not to!
watch tower judges man on size of nose .
1921 "the size of the nose, as also the size of the eyes, is not without significance.
the small-nosed man cannot have a judicial mind, whatever his other excellencies may be.
That's why Pinocchio would make a good elder.
And what about Mr. Bean????;-))
well, in between my last post on corporate brainwashing an hour or so ago and now, i just managed to get myself a new role within the charity that i work with on a daily basis (http://www.selfdirection.org).

Never do we try to convert someone over to be a JW. We are trying to encourage Bible reading.
NEVER? You mean ALWAYS???
Otherwise why is there in this little secret book of yours called " reasoning from the scriptures" about 9 pages dedicated to answers for you, in case someone says:
I am NOT interested
I am NOT interested in religions
I am NOT interested in J.W.'s
I have my OWN religion
We all are already Christians here
I am busy
Why do you visit us so often?
I am a buddhist
I am Jewish
I am a muslim
etc.etc.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
In ALL those cases you ought to say: Okay, have a nice day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never say never please! It's just bullshit!
i was wondering with all the child abuse cases that dont get to the proper authorities...what about other crimes.. does anyone know if elders have been told to report other crimes to the police.. and does anyone have proof----i would be very interested in getting any kind of letters written to the elders from the wts.
im sure they have their "policies" out for public viewing but as we all know what those say and the letters to elders are two different things.. thanks.

If that's not a cover-up, I don't know what is. I confronted the elders with this, but they advised me to be quiet about this.
Ofcourse this is a cover up, but what do you expect?
Elders are taught to advise people to be quiet about things that will harm their so called 'good' name!!! They are not interested at all in their flock! Only in the money they are making for them!
An Emmy Award for the WTS!!!!
