No! And didn't god "destroy the world" or punish the bad people many times before? Why can't he get it right? If there is a god, you'd think he could get his $%*& together already.

Some help please- advice
by leftbelow ini have a problem.
i knew this would come up but what has me questioning myself is where some of my resistance is coming from.. my wife and i have a baby on the way in nov. (a little girl) anyway my mom immediately started applying pressure to me to go back to meeting and of course to attend the convention.
that is not the surprise.

I agree with scully - this will continue until she has you out in fs. I don't understand why people try to appease their JW family by going to a meeting or two or convention, do they ever appease you by celebrating your birthday, christmas or just leaving you the heck alone with your decisions? NO, it's a one way street with them.
Don't go and keep your precious little girl away from those cultish nuts!

Renaii GO BACK
by hotchocolate inokay, just a thread to say that renaii should totally go back!
sorry chick, but personally i think you're just an attention seeker, and you'll get more if you go to meetings.
well at least for six months.

sex sells
by John Doe ingrrr.. i just went for a drive to a local park in a place i've not been before.
i saw a little open air store by the side of the road, and i stopped when i saw the "fresh fruit and peaches" sign.
i went in, and there was a very pretty girl in her late teens, blond hair, blue eyes, and flirtacious but innocent personality.

Well, just made some scrambled eggs to try the salsa out, and it's actually pretty good. So, I guess I wasn't duped after all. ;-)
Damn!

Did the Watchtower Steal Away Your Hot Summer Nights As A Teenager?
by Yizuman ini mean like the good old fashioned teen dating whereas you could have been hanging out in lover's lane overlooking a very scentic location with your summer lover and maybe hanging out with your friends laughing about whatever.. or maybe hang out in a bonfire listening to some dude hittin' some tunes on his guitar or singing along a song?.
or maybe just get plain lucky (and playing it smart, keep it in your wallet or purse please) in the backseat of a hopefully a hot chevy corvette.. so did you end up wasting it all away in meetings and pioneering?.

Nope I was never the "theocratic type" and kinda found a way to do the things I wanted to. I just made sure I had a good time or what ever "it" was, was worth it because I knew what was coming when/if they found out
I got in a lot of trouble growing up.

For those who eat meat , Do you prefer beef, pork, poultry or seafood?
by StoneWall injust trying to see what the majority on here prefer and why.. going to be having some friends over in a few weeks and trying to decide what to go with this time.. i'm more of a seafood type myself.. i'm glad there's not a red lobster restaurant next door to me or i'd go broke from eating there all the time.. .

The Watchtower Didn't Make Me An Atheist
by B_Deserter inive posted on this before, but i figured i should lay my thoughts out again on the subject.
there are some in the ex-jw community who are saddened because the watchtower organization has turned me and others like me off to god.
the watchtower attacks and debunks other religions on a regular basis, often giving us the sense that if the watchtower is wrong, then there cant be a god.

On a scale of 1 - 10 - How Ex-xjw are you?
by AK - Jeff ini felt like i was still a jw for a couple of years emotionally, though i had left.
then for a couple of years i felt like an xjw.
in the past year i think i have made the leap to lightspeed.

I'm not here because I can't get over having been in the cult, I come here cause I can relate to some of the stories I hear and it's addictive once you start to know various posters history. This cult never held me back from anything and I moved on quite nicely.
It's nice to know that others had the same experience that I had growing up especially the ones that didn't give a crap, was only in it because they had not choice and left as soon as they turned 18 like I did. I wasn't the only one.
