Why yes, Satanus, as a matter of fact those letters did appear in my old screen name. And, I remember your witty observation that perhaps my fingers had the same problem as my brain.
Anyway, thank you all for the words of wisdom.

Thanks, I think I will read that at another time it was starting to freak me out again just thinking about it.
a 16 year old girl was recently disfellowshipped from my congregation.
i was told by some busybodies that she had a ''wordly'' boyfriend and that she committed fornication.now she sits home alone while her parents attend 3 meetings per week.. my questions are:did the elders meet with the parents first to let them know what the offense was?
were her parents told what the judicial meeting would be about and how it works?
I don't know about any new light but when I was DF'd in 1976 I was alone with the elders for my "offense". My zealous mother is the one who turned me in to begin with but she wasn't in the room. She was outside the door and let's just say I wasn't very soft spoken so I'm sure she heard everything. Slimeballs.
what things do you enjoy about the forum?.
others make you feel like family here, that is a great thing.
it is fun to hear all the post and wisdom and jokes coming from everyone.
I like the knowing that there are others out there that have had some of the same experiences and learning how to heal from the abuses suffered because of the WTBTS.
I also enjoy the humor. It feels good to laugh.

How did everyone here get so damn smart. The answers I have gotten seem so apparent when I read them. It's all good. I need to learn to be more positive in my approach to life. Eventually, I believe I will recover. I have a lot of life left in me.
Mouthy, I am not really 92, I used 1914 as my birth year in my profile. I am really 46. If you adopt me (pleeeeze) I will now need a passport to come visit. I think you are the best of the best.

Thank you, OTWO for the good advice. ALl I can do is my best to make this world a bit kinder and safer. And thank goodness I don't have my finger on the button. Sometimes I get really pissed off and do stupid things.

Z,
You're right, nobody know when or if it will happen. But the probablity that it will happen is what I cn't get past. I have lived my life in fear of the big A nad now I can't get past this hurdle. Do I just keep my head in the sand?
Mouthy,
I am so glad I did not offend you. Will you be my Grandma too?

I had posted this topic under a different screen name but the name was deemed offensive and removed from JWD. I have "re-instated" myself under this new name. If my old screen name offeneded anyone, please accept my apology. It was unintentional.
Any comments or thoughts will be much appreciated.

here's the post:
With the help of this discussion forum and the internet I can honestly admit to myself that the JWs do not have the truth. So now I know that God is not going to destroy me "really soon" and I am not spiritually dead even though I was DF'd in 1976. Being raised JW from the age of 5 with a zealous mother and un believing father was not easy. But, that's a whole other story.
The hurdle here is, even though the JW armegeddon obviously is not impending....
How long will it take mankind to obliterate ourselfs with WMDs? Is there an out?
Maybe I just can't get past the gloom.
