  Vowelboy (said with affection) :)

  Something just occurred to me, be yourself man.

  Women like individuals. I use the word 'quirky'. Don't play the game. First of all, you are a former JW, so lets be frank, you don't have game at the moment. This is the first girl after leaving the borg? Then she likes different. Trust me, I didn't realize just how different JW guys act after they first leave. I am sure (though I couldn't possibly know for sure) that exiting JW women are similar.

  Use it to your advantage. Don't pretend that you are a player, otherwise, you are going to come across like Steve Martin and Dan Akroyd in those old "2 wild and crazy guy" skits.

  There are some silver linings for being a JW and coming out for dating. You aren't going to be a mega player at the bar, so don't play that hand. You have different cards, and they are good cards. Learn them, learn yourself, you'll be good dude.

  Its not that women don't want that, but they want to be around a man who possesss himself.

  There is a way some men act that when they treat their lady like a queen that they come across as needy.

  On the other hand, she could just be a b*tch.

  Sorry if that isn't helpful.

  Also, I think your viewpoint of women... well, I can't agree with it. I understand the need to rant, so thats cool. I hope you understand that feedback is a part of putting this stuff 'out there'.

  Just to sum up, women want to be treated better then a queen, they want to be treated as an individual. She may have saw you treating her like a queen, but more importantly, she may not know why you treated her like a queen. Just a thought.

  I am not a newbie anymore.... :)

  I don't mind the rehashing for new ones. I was new once, and I appreciated a lot of input that no doubt was repeated previous.

  A few topics when I started

  Are JW's a cult?

  Are all JW's bad?

  Is Faith Bad?

  Questions about personal development and growth?

  Before this board became a place to hang out, it was a place to work things out. And we all need foils, so I have had mine. Lately, public affairs and politics dominate, because I need to catch up. Tomorrow?

  Piiiiigs Iiiiiin Spaaaaace!

  Or whatever. Newbies, rock on!

  I agree with Lee... 9/11 started it... And now, they are going to reap a windfall that will keep them solvent for 10 years.

  How do you respond to: "The whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one?"

  by darthfader in

  i get this statement all the time from my jw family.

  that this system is in satan's control.

  or that "this or that" is put here to test our faith.

  I say that Bush was voted out of office...

  Sorry, small joke....

  This is to program you to see all the non JW world as evil, thats all. One of the first things you learn about "the world" is that it isn't nearly as evil as you heard it was.

  Threat of 1980 Rebellion/Schism--Real or Perceived?

  the way crisis of conscience lays it out, despite their reservations on doctrine, ray franz and ed dunlap would have been more than happy to live out their lives within the jw ranks without causing any disturbance.

  ray was contemplating resigning from the gb and living out his life quietly somewhere outside bethel.

  ed preferred to remain in bethel due to his advanced age.

  Well, does respect mean agreement? Or can I disagree? Because it isn't an opinion, I know that what Ray Franz is right, and your views, while you are entitled to them, are wrong.

  Thats better. Not by much. Why not call me Jeff and remove my name. You were not invited to use it.

  And as for coping with your opinion, huh? I disagreed with it. Big difference, and I stated in very simple terms for your benefit, why.

  You are on record as saying you do not believe Ray Franz and that you personally doubt his account. Duly noted. Anything else?

  To athiests who hate God

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  question, if this is true, in the book of enoch chapter 10:11-12, "all the sons of men shall not perish in consequence of every secret, by which the watchers have destroyed, and which they have taught, their offspring.12all the earth has been corrupted by the effects of the teaching of azazyel.

  to him therefore ascribe the whole crime.

  if that is god's truth, and your only accountable for your own wickedness and actions, would you feel guilty for your accusations against god?
