  short story:.

  never had a real religious formation until i met the witness in my teenage years.. not everything has been bad but most of my friends there and exwife have been cheaters, liars and hypocrites.... i called it quits this year as i could no longer swallow their truth.

  i remarried a supposedly "christian" 23 yr old woman that has shown me how bad things are 'out here'.... regarding her i have a question... those of you that continue to uphold bible's principles and love for our dear creator please advise on the following situation:.

  Hi crazito and welcome

  I don't have any advice to give you other than to say stick around and give yourself time and space to recover from all the bad things that have happened to you.

  Why I'm mad at god.

  the past couple of days, i've been posting a lot about how disappointed and even disgusted i am with god and how he runs his universe.

  i guess that probably offends some people.

  i don't intend to make people feel bad, but here's what's been going on in my life lately:.

  have finally identified it

  Green Woodpecker Picus viridis The Green Woodpecker is about the size of a pigeon, but it is green, with its head capped red. You may spot its bright yellow tail as it flies off in alarm. It can often be seen climbing up the trunk of a tree, picking out insects as it goes.

  Approx 4 times size of a house sparrow

  Bright red crest

  creamy belly

  olive green wings with white speckled edges

  black beak

  When wings spread to fly - an amazing yellow lower back

  black tail

  made lots of holes in the garden looking for worms - must have been very hungry.

  thanks

  dear newbies and others somehow unaquainted with our resident grandma,.

  "...the watchtower is determined to doggedly hang on to the lie that the time of the end commenced in 1914. there is no other explanation for the watchtower's persistent and seeming incurable interpretive schizophrenia.

  The Birth of Christ

  by JamesThomas in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  posting this under friends, as it is not about beliefs and religions.

  the birth of christ.

  there is that which is not a separate deity too small and limited to be present, but rather that which is presence itself.. there is that which is not a distant savior whose love is conditional and restricted to faith, but rather is the very presence of unconditional love itself.. there is that which is not a creatural spirit who offers peace for acts of faith, but rather that which is peace itself.. there is that which is not a god gleamed from a book believed by some to be alive and true, but rather than which is all-embracing life and truth itself.. there is that which is not a spiritual-being who some day may arrive, but rather that which is the living present-moment of beingness itself.. there is that which is not a separate lord who is holy and pristine, but rather that which is purity itself.

  A very encouraging post, thanks JamesThomas.

  Its very liberating to know that we all have that accessible within ourselves

  each jw mtg my husb has to attend is a burden for me cuz he always says i start an argument.

  i know its the demand that the wts has on its followers that they cant seem to deal with.

  he'll ask me a question and i will give him my undoctrinated answer and he goes off, then announces i'm starting an argument b4 he leaves for a mtg.
