dear friends,.
this has been a distressing 48 hours.
i cannot sleep because i do not have freeness of speech.
As I go out into my meadow today and join up with all the beasties, I shall listen for the song of the winged creature while gathering autumn leaves. I love you guys!
Ummm, thanks for sharing this. Maybe you might want to make posts when your blood alcohol level is a little bit lower.
a bit of whimsy never hurt anyone ...
i was under the impression that the jdubs get persecuted 3 times a week not counting field service.
i completely understand the way you feel, coco ...my family went out too to distribute the tracts. it was more than a little painful to see them persecute themselves for nothing.
many jws sold their homes and moved across country to serve where the need was great.
in the last couple of years i have remembered several people who moved from western canada to quebec where we were told the need was great out west.
some sacrificed their families, friends to go it alone.
like the mosaic law which no on one could attain to no matter how pious.
my last post doubled up and i ended up seeing it twice, when it should have been once.
so i though i would just edit it and make it into another topic related to high school.
prom!
hell no!
i wasn't allowed to go to the prom, or any dances, no extra-curricular activites, sports, or going to a friends houses (couldn't even bring one home). it was all worldly and distracted me from god. sometimes i think a nun has more freedom.
seeing every witness is giving out 50 of the kn 37 brochure three hundred million (300,000,000) will be warned of their impending destruction.. shame about the remaining five billion seven hundred million.
5,700,000,000, oh well too bad..
yes^! what a terrible pronoun to attach to his name
i`ve never yet been snubbed by a jw.
the reason is that i refuse point blank to speak to them unless they speak to me first.
so, if i`m visiting my jw mum and jw visitors arrive which they often do i just smile, raise one eyebrow slightly, and look `em straight in the eye!.
i'd probably just turn the question back on them.
danny hazzard just posted this..please help!!
!silentlambs alert!
*a cry for help to all men of conscience in the organization of jehovahs witnessesthe recent court rulings in napa california have given authorities the right to access congregation judicial files that contain any information that provides evidence of the crime of child abuse.
uurgh...stomach turning moment and outrage.

if only they understood what it meant to paraphrase.

one of the women that studied with me did this. She was a lightning bolt of godly zeal. i remember a day when she went out in service even when she had premenstrual cramps so bad she was grimacing and fidgeting in the car. she was out every day, every damn day ...well she moved out to some carribean isle to help out because the door-to-door work didn't challenge and/or persecute her enough.
you know what happened?
she was reproved by the elders there for being 'too zealous'.
the same sort of 'you're a liar' response to doing an excellent job. unbelievable. you can't win for losing,and it just goes to show that if you actually live up to the example set in their publications that you will be a very unbalanced person.
she's moved back to the old congragation now, so i hear.
im in the process of trying to get my boyfriend to see sense, as however much i try i can see no sense in the jws teachings as "christian"..ive got little over a week before he's baptised, but im not giving up that easily, especially after reading the stories on here..he says he wants to rescue me from a burning house..i say i want to rescue him from the hang mans noose..anyway was discussing with him earlier and i know i read somewhere in the bible something along the lines that we should let no man teach us, and read no other material that has been changed, apart from the bible, as god will teach us all things..i just cant remember the exact wording or where in the bible i read it..does someone know where that was...im still looking lol!
one last one:
galations 1:10-12
