  Max:

  When I first began lurking in this forum, it took me awhile to figure out what the point of any serious debate was to be here. I've been out of the control of the society for so long, it just seemed a trivial and amusing passtime. But, after reading a number of your posts and answers to others, it dawned on me that there is a real exodus occuring from the WTS and the internet has become a pivotal point in it's evolution.

  Many who post here are at varying stages of separation from the society and many are forced to hide their real feelings and beliefs for fear of losing familial relationships through disfellowshipping and disassociation. Many are not aware, as you are, of the internal turmoil that currently exists at the Brooklyn headquarters. You provide valuable information in a kind and serious way.

  Please do not be dismayed by detractors. While I tend to view frivolously many of the matters discussed here , I forget that these are serious, life changing discussions for many. Keep up the good work.

  ok this has nothing to do with being a jw or anything of that nature but it is important to me and i need some help:.

  here goes i have been drinking rum and coke (bacardi) since i can remember and finally realized that maybe it is contributing to my severly harsh hangovers.

  When in doubt I always ask for a boiler maker. A draft of beer and a shot of Jack. It works for me.

  i for one appreciate australia's efforts to prevent undesirables from entering their country.

  i once heard the story of a british businessman, who upon arrival at australian customs was asked if he had ever been convicted of a felony.

  to which the brit replied, "no, is it still a requirement here?

  i hereby urge every single one of jehovah's witnesses nationwide to stop going out in field service!

  according to the january 1, 1989 watchtower, our obligation to field service officially ended last year!:.

  I last went in field service in 1981. Haven't been since. I guess I was guilty of running ahead of the society. Damn!

  Women admit to regular lies

  women admit to regular lies .

  nearly one in four british women would try to conceive without their partner's consent if they wanted a baby, research suggests.

  a survey by women's magazine that's life!, found that many women are prepared to lie about almost any aspect of their life.

  risk taking

  by joelbear in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well, i'm getting closer and closer to turning my life upside down and breaking away from my 43 years of conservative living.

  any risk experiences out there?.

  the risk i want to take is leaving banking, living a much more bohemiam life, maybe work as a waiter or bartender or something, go to school, travel, work on my furniture art, write, read, live.. aaaack.

  How would you respond to this?

  by openminded in

  2. friends

  i got this letter today from a friend of my dad who i have not seen in years.

  please respond to any or all of it as you see fit.

  it pretty much sums up witness mentality.

  I think the first thing you should do is to see if you can get this guy the Tolstoy award for lengthy writing.

  Did he think he would wear you into submission with this letter? "Please, don't write me again and I'll go back to the Kingdom Hall?"

  If the Sermon on the Mount had lasted as long as this letter, we wouldn't have had time for the crucifixtion.

  2. friends

  is it safe to buy old watchtower publication from garage sales or from on-line outlets like ebay?.

  is it possible for demons to attach themselves to these "old light" publications?

  what could be the effect?.

  If the CEO of General Foods has been to a seance, it is likely that if you eat Quaker Oats for breakfast you may be exposing yourself to demons. I've seen the little bastards and they aren't pretty.

  What should we name the baby?

  by Eyebrow in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am due in the middle of october and my husband and i cannot come up with a name.

  i almost had him sold on venus, until he asked people at work what they thought and he got wierd looks.

  i wanted to name the last baby sidney, but let him name her because he has never gotten a chance to name a kid before.

  Has Anyone Tried Yoga?

  by Eyebrow in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been considering learning yoga for a few years now, but i am not sure how to go about it.

  i don't really have the money for a class right now, and most of the books i have found are either extremely expensive or not really for beginners.

  can anyone make any suggestions?

  Yoga? Are you crazy? Why not just wear a T-Shirt that says "I

  exercise with demons".
