It is kind of creepy to see them, brain-dead soldiers in a mythical war.

JW's Parked in front of House doing Returns, Not so good Feelings.
by Shanagirl inugh, i saw them this morning, 4 of them piling out of the car in front of my house and going to a few "not at homes" across the street.
it brought up a lot of uncomfortable feelings in me and especially seeing a former friend who's partially related to my husband's family thru marriage.
i saw her out the window staring at our home and it gave me the creeps.

other forums
by Hortensia ini look at three forums pretty much every day, this one, a knitting/crochet forum and a weight-loss forum.
the weight-loss site has loads of useful apps, but the forum consists of posts by people who are mostly pretty young, self-absorbed and ill-informed except on a narrow range of information, mainly weight-lifting, working out, and starving themselves.. the folks on the knitting/crochet forum are extremely polite, politically correct, and obey rules very carefully.
other than that, there are some seriously creative people with amazing artistic talent that expresses itself in fiber arts.

I look at three forums pretty much every day, this one, a knitting/crochet forum and a weight-loss forum. They are so different. The weight-loss site has loads of useful apps, but the forum consists of posts by people who are mostly pretty young, self-absorbed and ill-informed except on a narrow range of information, mainly weight-lifting, working out, and starving themselves.
The folks on the knitting/crochet forum are extremely polite, politically correct, and obey rules very carefully. Other than that, there are some seriously creative people with amazing artistic talent that expresses itself in fiber arts. Me, I like knitting, so it's interesting to see what things people are designing and knitting. Not so much interested in crochet.
JWN, aside from a few whackdoodles, has some really interesting, intelligent people and some of the discussions are very deep and teach me a lot. Not that I contribute to the deeply meaningful threads -- I'm more of a fluff thread person.
That's all. Nothing significant here, except what I've noticed about the people on each forum. As I said, I'm pretty trivial and interested in fluff.
I leave you with a link to Stephen West designs -- he designs knitting patterns and I guess you could call his work haute couture.

Dear one,
the counseling will be very helpful -- I did a year of counseling with a psychologist when I left the wtbts, it was immensely helpful and made me feel so much better than I ever had before.

Health Advise Needed.
by RottenRiley in.
if your sister and brother died of cancer and now your body is starting to show all the effects of the disease, would you want to know even if it might mean a death-sentence?.
my dad, sister, brother and now mom will die from this ugly disease, all of them had aggressive forms of stomach cancer, my mother's battliing it has me putting my health on the back burner because i am very obstinate and hate doctors, why should i go see a doctor if the last four people i loved all died of cancer once they got their dx?.

Go to the doctor, lay out the facts. Your parents and two siblings have been diagnosed with stomach cancer and you are starting to feel the symptoms. You need the right tests to let you know whether or not you have cancer and you need them now. If you're straight with the doctor, lay out the facts, and still get blown off, well, go right down the road to another doctor and don't pay that first one.

I'm so sorry to hear this! I can see how it would make you feel that way. The diagnosis isn't what kills, it's the cancer. I guess everyone is different. I think personally I'd want to know, and I'd want to be aggressive about getting treatment.
How awful that your entire family has suffered from cancer -- you must feel upset and angry and very sad. I can hardly imagine how awful it must be.

does it even matter?
by losingit ini am thinking of sending a simple fb message to all of the jws i know.. "jwfacts.com" with the tag line, "you're in a cult.".
my motivation?
i am disturbed about the fact that these people that pretended to be friends look at me with a negative eye and have no clue as to how they abandoned my girls and i in a desperate time of need over the course of this past year.

No, it doesn't really matter, so go ahead if you want to do it. If I had JW friends on facebook, I would love to poke them in the eyes with the truth! I have been out so long I don't have any JW contacts any longer.
