  To Waiting

  waiting,.

  i've been thinking about some of the posters i've met on the exjw boards these past couple of years and you came to mind as one of the most level-headed and balanced people i have encountered on this journey.. i appreciate your humor too.

  we have not always agreed but what the hell, if life were just one head nodding "yes" after the other, we would still be in the tower.

  Suicide and JW'S

  by obiwan in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have personally had experience with this.

  a long time friend committed suicide because of her husband and the problems they were having.

  he abused her and ended up leaving her, the elders wouldn't help out much stating that it was a marital problem.. she couldn't cope with him leaving, she was extremely dependant on him, she felt the only way out was suicide.

  AM I NORMAL?

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been meeting-free for a year now, (although i did attend the last memorial mainly out of curiosity).

  i have learned enough now, since leaving "the truth" to know that i'm never going back.

  but i was wondering how long it takes to get all of the shit out of your head?

  Do your parents still talk to you?

  by scootergirl in

  2. friends

  just curious if your parents still have contact with you after you have been df'd/da'd.

  mine have stood by w/strong convictions not to have contact w/me.

  they have to have some being that i have kids that they want to see (but that is very minimal).

  Bringing reproach on the organization..

  by ItsJustlittleoldme in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  hey, i got a question... the jw's won't even let the men have beards for 'fear' that the 'image' will scare some of the people while going door-to-door (or at least that was the reason i was given why beards are bad)... why is it that they are being hypocritical (i know, hard to believe they are hypocrits huh?

  ) and allowing even potential child molesters from going door-to-door?

  after all, if they don't want to stumble anyone with a beard, why would they allow someone to be stumbled with an accusation of child molestation hanging around them?

  my mother called me again to talk about dateline and the fall out at the cong.

  she said the elder (or guy giving the talk-i am not sure if it was book study or a meeting) read a letter from the society saying: .

  "it is all apostates who are doing this".

  Dissociated family excluded from funeral services

  by Pardus in

  2. beliefs

  apparently, disassociated relatives are not allowed to be in the procession lines at kingdom hall services.

  they can attend but they cannot be with their relatives to receive condolenses.

  this happened recently to someone whose aunt had passed away.
