reason for leaving
by winnie inwe did not swallow the new light theory at all but it did get me thinking.
lets presume jws are right and they claim to be inspired by god what does that say about god?is it just a game for him they must be having a ball in heaven changing the rules halfway through a game even if jws were right i would not want to be part of a god that does that.i was raised a jw and to be honest i enjoyed it for me it was a great way of life but there comes a time when in good faith you can not justify to yourself that it is the truth never held any hatred for jws until i left and then i saw them in a different light they by they i mean my family have put all there energy into applying there love towards me by shunning me my wife and there 5 grandchildren as ive said if god is dirrecting them then i dont want anything to do with there god.
this new light will have little or no effect on jws all thats left is rank and file who if by now havnt left never will and new converts who have no idea what used to preach.

Encounter with JW neighbours # 2
by winnie inas i posted in a previous thread, we moved about 5 weeks ago into a house next door to a local elders family (who also happen to be related to us through marriage).. the elders wife (i'll call her mrs m), decided to weed her garden when we went out this morning.
but we were only gone for 20 minutes.
to weed a part of her garden, she has to come into our front yard to reach it, which she was doing when we came home.

they lack crosses, statues, and other symbols that most christian churches have.
however, they do have an image.

shunning and its effect on the emotional fabric of families
by hurricane ini am very concerned as to what the long term effect of df or ds can be on young children who may be deprived of the love and care of close family members, such as grandparents who may still be loyal jws but whose own married children are dfd.
the modern epidemic of youth rebellion is often traced back to dysfunctionality within the emotional fabric of societies.
the organisation may very well be contributing to this breakdown.. how many members of the gb are married with children and grandchildren who can fully empathise with what their policy is doing, has anybody written an article on this subject..

Anyone else setting up the Christmas tree or thinking of it already?
by WTWizard inbeing that i like the looks of the christmas lights and that i have had 20 years of not being able to set them up, i have already taken the step of setting up the christmas tree.
on it are huge amounts of lights--12 sets of c6 led bulbs (they come 60 to a set) plus a set of 70 miniature leds for the top region.
i ran out of c6 bulbs about halfway up the tree (not to worry, i have the other 6 sets on order and they should be arriving today).. there are some things to think about when setting up a holiday tree out of "season".
