ok i think i made a mistake.
tomorrow is dedes birthday, and since i will not be here tomorrow i want to give her gift today and post it here.
well this is what happened.. i was talking to a buddy, and i told him, "i don't know what to get my wife for her birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i would love some support since i am scared and confused, but i don't know where to turn.
my husband and i are both having our eyes opened wide after years of doubts.
we have finally read the "apostate literature" over the past few weeks and have checked and rechecked their sources.
You've come to the right place. Welcome! There are a lot of 'wings' here. I've only been out for 10 months myself but some of these folks have been out for decades! You will get a LOT of support. Be prepared for tough times ahead....but fret not, it is WELL worth it!

well all i wanted to tell you that i am still very much happily in love with my girlfriend.
in fact she just found out she got a job and will be moving down with me in just a few weeks.
i am so excited.
Congrats!! Next month will be the one year anniversary for my girlfriend and me. We were forced to move in together after dating for only 3 weeks but it has all been well worth it! I am so happy for you.
Adrienne, congrats on the new house. Sorry I haven't emailed you back yet...the holidays are keeping me busy.

one double standard that always got to me was how a body of elders would talk about how a brother needed to "qualify" for some privilege by being a good example for weekend service and yet a number of elders would hardly ever go out in field service at all!
or how they would use 2 hours to literally gossip about everyone in the congregation, and then give a local needs talk on the need of not talking about the brothers and minding our own business.........what double standards got to you?
The one that pissed me off the most is that they always tell their householders that they need to examine their religion to see if it is right....so come to the Kingdumb Hell. But we were never allowed to accept an invitation to their churches because THAT was interfaith.

besides giving up our time and assets,is there anything that you particularly felt that you truly "gave up" to become or remain a witness?
I gave up my education, my job, my best friends, my family, and my music.
this is a true story.
i do not bullshit about stuff like this.. everybody knows i'm agnostic, and most of you know that i lump wicca right in there with all the other religious beliefs as being just one more crock of lies, and have pissed off sunchild and sirona and a few others with my observations about wicca.
well, as i continue on my path of mellowship, i've mellowed toward wicca as well.
I have to agree with Sirona...anything that messes with your heart, ie love spells, is very dangerous! A person can cast energy to strengthen/heal someone but this is a physical healing, not emotional. A coven would be very good for her because they could help "keep her in check" so to speak.
LyinEyes: I saw The Craft too and again I agree with Sirona...it isn't like reality. Some things are parallel but for the most part it is made up.
Sirona: Thanks for the reference to "Wicca, A guide for the solitary practitioner" by Scott Cunningham. I'll have to add that one to my collection. Witchvox.com is one of my personal favs.
Lots of Love, Fire
