Well said Purps, JWD is an amazing place - a blessing in all our lives. A place to find connection, love, support, humour, sadness, happiness, friends, brotherhood, understanding, stimulation, therapy, you name it. Who'd have thought there was somewhere magical like this outside of being a Witness....
Warm wishes to everyone.

I just wonder how many changes they have to make to this ridiculous teaching before your average JW finally wakes up and realises it's all just made up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are a brave and courageous man, hats off to you. You've not taken the easy road and you've been true to yourself.
I am sure you will be an inspiration to many. The more of us that make this stand the better.
I hope that life will hold many beautiful things from now on and that one day your wife will come to her senses.
Peace and happiness to you and your sons.

What Birth Sign Were You Born Under ?
by flipper indidn't know if this has been addressed before , but it's kinda interesting.
when we were witnesses we were always told,oh!
don't look at horoscopes or read anything about your sign because it's demonized !

Great topic Mr Flipper.
I am Gemini married to Capricorn and yes I do believe that there has to be more to this than meets the eye, as the signs tend to fit the people generally. I have always wanted to look into this more and you've just reminded me! Thank you. -

MY DAD MIGHT DIE DUE TO THE 'NO BLOOD' DOCTRINE
by Mary ini don't have much time to post as i'm headed back to the hospital, but my father collapsed this morning and had to be rushed to the hospital.
in a nutshell: he needs a blood transfusion as his hemoglobin is dropping (bleeding internally), but thanks to this fucking cult, that's not an option...........he'll accept the fractions but those bastards from the blood liaison committee have already shown up to ensure he doesn't cave............... for those of you who still believe, i'm asking you to say a prayer for my dad........and if anyone from crooklyn is reading this: you better hope my father doesn't die due to your fucked up rules, .

What's the point of it all anyway??

Goodbye for now...
by R.F. inhello all.. first of all i wanted to say thank you for all the help i've received from you all in recent months.
my life has changed completed in such a short amount of time, and some of the things that have happened recently have finally just "hit" me as of late.
i definitely need to take more time to just stop and think, actually accept the changes, and adjust.
