Do you know how strong you all are?
by jgnat ini'm thinking this morning at the enormous effort required to leave the witnesses.
that you all found your way here is amazing.
you are a select group of strong people, who will not allow life or any organization to knock you down.

Can a JW have a relationship with a non-JW(me)
by geotsou inif the girl is baptized already really into it, is there any way she could build a relationship with me?
do i even have a chance to develop something with her or is it just a castle made of sand?

If you don't have any heart strings attached yet I definitely agree - run away. However if you think she is worth it and it's worth a try I would only go into it with the view of getting her out. I got involved with a non-JW after I was disfellowshipped thinking I would go back later and hopefully she would come along. THANK GOD (or someone) SHE DID GO OUT WITH ME and she helped me stay out and eventually wake up to myself after a few years.
Be prepared if it doesn't work out like that though - like I said sometimes it's better to leave well alone...

Rollerdave returns to the KH!
by RollerDave inwell folks, it had to happen, i returned to the kingdom hall.. or at least to its parking lot.. but not to worry my little jwd'ers, my return was in true rollerstyle!.
i had dropped off my mom a few days previous when she made some remarks that steamed me, i had felt she was talking through her teeth, but i now know i could only have been half right.. she calls and rambles a while, then directs me to keep her teeth safe.
after i got the explanation for this cryptic remark from her i go and investigate..... there, on my bathroom counter, next to the tushie-cleanliness paraphernalia, is an unexplained white plastic container which contained my mother's lower plate.. smelled 'minty.'.

Ok - concerned about the leather chaps. Reminds me of a police academy move and a blue oyster bar. However, good story Dave. I might have to organise to pick up my grandmother from the meeting one day soon. I think I will buy a big apostate truck just for the occasion

I read about that - it's pretty amazing. One article was saying because of global warming they expect to start finding more of this sort of thing.
I wonder if you will be able to keep a mammoth as a pet if they recreate them - provided you have a big enough back yard of course.

Name the 'Finest Hypocrites' you know.
by AK - Jeff ini knew of an elder who ran a janitorial business for decades here [surprize] - his primary employees were his kids, ranging in age from 3 or 4 to teenager at various times.
he would bring in the whole family, they would spread out and empty bags, vacuum, and dust.
in a flash they are out and off to the book study or whatever.. he was able to 'witness wipe' several offices after 5 o'clock and before the 7 o'clock meeting times.

I knew an elder who was so "sick" he had to go on government benefits. At same time he was running an ISP and software company in the name of his kids and was raking it in. Just before I got DF'd he had put a MASSIVE pool with waterfall etc out the back of his house (where he ran the company from).
What was worse is how they always complained they had no money!!!

a card I received that reallly upset me
by quietlyleaving ina couple fo days ago two witnesses knocked with their children, they gave me flowers and a card with the following message:.
"we want you know that we love you, and that you are in our prayers..we are thinking about you.. we remember too, and are grateful for yur support in the past, especially 6 years ago, when you came to the home, following our loss of dennis (not his real name).. in these last days, life is harder then ever.
satan is trying to break all of us, be it through health problems, the ones we love and even our brothers and sisters where it hurts the most.

I am amazed how fake (and silly) this sort of things sounds to me now. I hope you find the right response that gives you satisfaction.

I have been checking out some videos on youtube and I agree. A lot of witnesses posting defences and a lot of them quite nasty like "may jehovah strike you down" type gear. What is that about?

Has your brain been re-wired with the "F" word?
by Gregor ini learned an interesting fact from my father's doctor when he was being treated for a stroke.
mom had mentioned that even though dad couldn't speak well enough to ask for a glass of water he could clearly say, "goddammit".
the dr. explained that epithets are from a different part of the brain and this area had not been affected by the stroke.. i found this very interesting.

I used to give my wife a hard time when I first left saying she had a potty mouth. 3 years on and she is now giving me a hard time about my potty mouth...
