these two little kids look like a tiny elderly couple and sound like baby zombies.
god help them in a few years when they learn the truth about the "truth"!.

I'm happy to say I've never at any age had to stand on the stage and do that crap. I was never a devoted little dub and even at that age I'd be rolling my eyes thinking "geek"

Did anyone else notice the two bullet proof panels he stood between last night?

it has been quite some time since i have posted on this glorious discussion group... it has been even longer since i have started any discussions myself.. and as somber (or possibly upsetting), my title or even thesis may seem, there is reason and respect coming behind it.... i do love the majority of the people who post here... though your faces and names may have changed since i started here, your kind words, sincere support and listening ears have always been very much appreciated... you have helped me through the hardest times of my life... my feelings of inadequacy (spl?
) and loneliness have often been overshadowed by your caring and love... so i must start by thanking you..... now, that being said; sometimes when i come online and read the dribble that some of you protray as discussion, i am almost sickened... right now my stomach is in knots because of the recent description of one's fecal matter i was subject to read... and yes, i know i could have just clicked off of it, but the title seemed appealing, the subject matter on the other hand was not.... but even this is not enough to turn me off of this site.... the other thing that leaves me with a bitter taste in my mouth, is the bull **** that i once believed... the terrible attitude and delusion of grandeur i once shared with the people of this terrible organization.... the pain i must have helped to instill in people who truly did not deserve it... the hatred i felt inside when someone decided to disassociate themselves, or the anger i felt towards the people that were disfellowshipped.
the letters i wrote to my friends, who had left... the families that were falling apart around me, as my own was able to hold some semblance of happiness and stability (whether feigned or not)... all the pain and torture this borg has put me through...has put so many others through... this has left me reeling.... reading about it every day no longer instills anger in me, as it used to... now, it sickens me... sickens me to believe i once felt this way, sickens me that so many others still condemn others for thinking... sickens me to realize that there are other 15 year olds out there being beaten for smiling... sickens me to think that there is not much i can do to help them... except maybe hope that one day they will find this website, or find some friend, or find me, and we can all work together to help this person out..... yes, i needed to rant... the true nature of this message though is to say thank you to all of you for making me realize how sick the witnesses are... how morally blind they are... and how much pain they instill... thank you for helping me out when i needed the help most... thanks for being my family... and i just hope i can help you all and anyone else that needs it as much as you helped me... i hope one day we all feel sickened at the damage the witnesses caused and continue to cause.
Ok, I know i've been drinking tonite but this thread was started in July? I'm confused or drunk?

so i tried voting twice today, both time complete failures.
now it isn't only a select few in my kh who think i am possessed.
first time i got to the front of the line and freaked out badly.
It's ok Ynot. You're just not ready, no one will fault you for that. Maybe next time or maybe even vote in a local election on things that affect your community. You just need more time.

so i havnt posted in a while but i'm a regular lurker.
i'm 19 years old and live at home with the parentals.
i just admitted to them that i've been secretly seeing a "worldly" girl for about a year.
Wow, I was just thinking about you the other day wondering how things were going for you. It's been a long time since you've posted.
I'm sorry that the shite is hitting the fan for you in this way. I don't think we really have any control over how things in this religion happen. Either you play the game or you leave for your own sanity. You have to choose what's more important to you. Your sanity and a happy life or playing the game, and being two faced.
For me I couldn't stand it, couldn't be one way in front of the JW's and parents and myself when I wasn't. The possibility of loosing my family and "friends" that were JW's didn't compare to being miserable and playing the game for them. I left with my infant son and my life has been filled with joys and pains, ups and downs just like anyone else but at least I called the shots for myself. I didn't allow anyone else to dictate for me how to live my life, who to love, who I should have as friends.
My parents eventually came around and at times I wish they would go back to shunning me, their lives are full of drama as usual and I don't have time for it. Now I keep them at arms length and I don't allow anyone to cross my boundaries. To this day if I allow it my mother will try to make me feel ashamed because I'm not serving Joe Hoover, Oh how I let her down, she so wanted me to marry in da troof and be submissive elders wife, blah, blah, blah. My dad feel like a failure becuase as an elder he couldn't keep his own children in line with the JW's (all except two) and it makes him sooo sad. I know it's all bullshite so it doesn't affect me. I do a fine job creating my own drama thank you very much and I don't need anyone else's help.
It may be time to make a stand for who you are and how you wish to live your life. I wish you the best kid.

please prove to me i'm not posting in the graveyard shift....... besty and i were talking about password protected and family's exit this last few weeks.
we are full of admiration for the way that they have left with dignity and obviously made many think.
they have not faded, they had a good repuation until the very last moment - mark was an elder - but they stopped and made the decision to be up front and face the elders in a meeting.
I walked away with no one but me and my infant son. I couldn't stand one more meeting, fs, bs or stupid family study. I think it's all in the person, if they are strong enough to say I'm out and I don't care if you shun me, I'm getting on with my life.
To each his own but as far as me I couldn't pretend or hang around. The family that was in when I left are still in and I have little if any contact with them.

Wow I thought everbody even ignorant people know that biracial African Americans have really nice hair not nappy by any stretch of the imagination. I think mega just has her panties in a wad and maybe a little envious of that black man with the good hair!
