for those of you who have read this in someone elses thread, i apologize.
it was suggested i start my own thread so here is my story again for anyone who may have missed it.
i am currently from minnesota and live in st. paul (roseville), but the congregation that i went to was in the apple valley area.
Hi; Welcome to the board. (just a newbie myself) Sorry to hear of your daughters diagnosis, and that you haveing fibromyalgia. I have a couple aquaintences with that. Glad to hear you figured out the JW's delema of premarital sex and an "unbelieving mate". Or it sounds like you did.
Hope you are having some great Holidays!
i was searching informations about stress because i'm a really stressed person and i found out this site.
it talk about the reactions of a someone who have lived a stressful events.
http://members.aol.com/namangel1/trauma.html here is what they say:" 1. what is trauma?
I have seen this in others, I have experianced it, and all I can say is GET OVER IT! It happend, and that is that!
or? turn to "pharmakia" (sorcery? yeah I am sure,, ROFLMAO Pill pushing doctors, gods in white coats!) Just take a pill, be happy!
What do you think the "stress" level is going to be like over the next 10 years? Do you think that the "end times" are going to be "relaxing"? NOT!
Learn to deal with all your emotions and in a manner that our Creator designed into us, not the way the "world" wants you to react. Think about it.
Happy Holidays to yah though.

Well like COMF said, but I do hope the best for you. Welcome OUT!,,, LOL
as a new guy, i would like to tell you a little about myself.
i joined.
after lurking for several weeks.
Hey there Outonalimb; Some times there are things inside us that all at once wake up.
One of my favorite sayings is concerning my trust (faith) that I have in what I have learned is this.
Not only am I out on a limb, but at the very top limb, on the last branch, and on the last leaf, with just my little toe nail grasping the very edge of that leaf,,, dancing a jig!
There's alot of info on this board. But bring a change of socks and rubber boots. *grins* a Welcome, from a newbie.
personal opinion comming-- watch out!
just kidding,.
just wanted to say merry christmas to you all and leave you with a quote to reflect on this christmas, .
And Happy Holidays to you too!
i thought the easiest way to share the pathetic tale of one faithful family in a different sort of way.
we'll start at the top and work our way to myself.. grandfather mom's side=never saw him, abused his children sexually/physically, emotionally, finally got the big df and has been sighted at halls around country using different names.
other wife/family also abused and left.. grandmother mom's side= lived w/abusive elder/alchoholic for many years, after he left for life w/other wife, went crazy, then she got cancer, but wouldn't get transfusions, or bone marrow transplant.
Sure makes yah wonder about the "truth", don't it? Wow mon, yah sure got one hell of a back ground in that family. Liked the home page yah got's listed. I'm a newbie at this "club", but for what it's worth, Welcome!
can anyone remember this being in print or hearing the same thing .... i remember more than one talk where the suggestion was made that the larger-than-life greek heroes were the same nephalim or "mighty ones of old" mentioned in the bible.. does anyone else remember this?
Well as far as I can figure out, the off spring of "angels" and mankind produced some interesting "kids" to say the least. That these were the Heroes of old? the probability factor is very high I would say.
when i was twenty or so years younger, i should have.
gotten a clue as to how cheap this organization is,.
when a member of the governing body told us that our.
,,, and to think that they actually thought that if they didnt support the Anointed they would not suffer the retributions of the Father? ROFLMAO Here I thought it was written that the collections were for the Saints FIRST, then the other needs as they arose?,, hmmm guess I just can't read a bible,,, lol.
dubs just love revelation 21:3,4. it is almost their mantra.
it bespeaks "hope" in dubland.
they interpret it this way:.

Well, I would have done that, but they were the same DipFucks who gave us 1925, 1975, the "superior authorities" and "sodom and gomorrah flip-flops, Malwai/Mexico, "you don't scream when you are raped, you are DFd", "no oral sex in marriage even if you both like it", "absolute spiritual endangerment" as a bullshit way to get around the Bible, "lying is ok if the opponent doesn't deserve to hear the truth" (another bullshit way to get around the Bible)(, "spy on your own family and turn them in if you suspect apostasy", "organ transplants are canabilism", "vaccinations are filthy animal pus", "the 'heart' is the seat of all emotions", and countless other absolute bullshit.
You get my drift, dummy? You can't trust the "anointed." They are idiots.
You trusted in the GB and their information! That was DUMB! NOT the Anointed! You were deceived by the WTBS and the GB, again YOU were dumb! As were most of the Anointed also. But then it is your choices as to how you now react to these deceptions. The Anointed NEVER deceived any of you. Thoswe that put THEMSELVES inbetween ALL and the Anointed have done this to you.
You can't even figure out who did what to who, let alone when or how!?!?
ROFLMFAO Deception breeds confusion,,,
well, i made my first communion today.
it felt great to share in the sacrifice and to participate fully in the mass.
all these years with my farther putting down the church and praising the wt.
*chuckles*,,,, makes yah wonder at times don't it?
Happy Holidays!
