i would love some info on the un scandal of a few years back.

when it all happened i was still a lemming and did hear about it but quickly dismissed it bacuase those apostates will make up anything ;).

anyway, any info would be good but what i'd really like is proof of what the un needed for membership.

Were you ever "all in"?

1. jw
2. experiences
for those of us here who are xjw's for varying degrees (df's, ds'd or just faded away {the greatest feat of all}) looking back to your years as an active jw, were you ever 100% mentally?

i thought i was but looking back when i was a ms and being groomed for elder i was very zealous but still didn't like field service but loved helping out.

now i look back i see i was just looking for acceptance from other, not serving god.. i would elaborate but i plan on posting "my story" soon.. how about you?.

i've only been on this board and one other board for a short time and i quickly learned enough to show me that jw is not the one and trur religion.

the walk of shame

it all starts after you hear "these things we pray through jesus christ, amen".

i gather my books and the kid's books and put them away.

by that time people are walking over to us and talking to my wife and playing with my kids.
