quick backstory:raised a jw, ms, reg pioneer, international need greater work.

i have been da for 2 years, divorced, ex and my son live 6 hours away near walkill ny.. my sons first talk is coming up, in august.

he is 7 years old.

I've never been in your shoes, I just couldn't bring myself to going. That's just me. After disassociating yourself, I'm not sure who will bear more harm? You because you see your son being indoctrinated or your son when he looks you in the face.

(Not)Preaching advice

by paradisebeauty in

having recently had an "awakening" - not from reading awake .... i realize i can not preach doctrines i do not believe anymore .

but i do not want the elders to start following my every move, because i also have plans to check other christian denominations.. so i am thinking, should i chat for an hour or two with an old visit and report the hours, should i tell the elders i have some doubts and i do not want to preach for now or should i just stop reporting and avoid the elders attempts to talk to me?

what do you think is the best sollution to get away with this?

Paradise I don't see anything wrong with having a chat with an old return visit and counting the time.

Can they disfellowship my father?

by cookiemaster in

this has nothing to do with my facebook endeavors.

when the elders visited us last week, they also discussed my father.

my mother called them about him.

I agree with Giordano he's insane. He needs professional help.

You know something cookie I have killed a lot of animals but only out of self preservation or because I needed food. I never enjoyed it. The idea of going after a stray dog with a bat or kicking a pregnant cat is insane,

Cookie in the Canadian Arctic we kill animals only if we have to. For example polar bears we shoot with red dye first when we see them. That way we know if a bear shows up repetitively with the red dye he's probably hunting us instead of just passing through.

Sorry if I offended any vegans out there.

I would be very careful dealing with anyone who beats innocent animals. Make sure that he doesn't have access to firearms. He's got a lot of pent up rage.

Morpheus you poor bastard, you will be at the hall tomorrow while I'll be eating a real brunch with real food. I hope you enjoy the rich Sunday spiritual feast provided for you by the FDS.

I'll bet if you asked JW women that question the majority of them would answer as rebel18 and Finkelstein answered and mean it! LOL

I think a lot of the fear contained in JW's forecast's in the 70's and 80's were linked to the cold war and the fear of a thermonuclear catastrophe. It seemed like the end was near and the WTBTS played into that fear so well.
