  You can be Disfellowshiped for being too FAT!!!!!

  by Witness 007 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  watch 74 p.167 "by disobediently overindulging in food and making a glutton of himself, he fails to show love for jehovah god...is food a big thing in his life?

  if in the presents of others, does he selfishly ignore thier needs and take far more then his share?

  is he grossly overweight but shows no restraint at all as to food, habitually gorging himself?

  My old circus overseer was so massive he couldn't walk without huffing and puffing away. He certainly couldn't walk and talk at the same time. Always grossed me out!

  I think your response to Dave was perfect Speghetti!! That way he knows he can always approach you if he should ever find himself needing to talk.

  when i go to my threrapist's office, while waiting in the waiting room, i look for wts and awakes.

  when i find them i write on them a website either this one or silent lambs or i just write "this group is a cult" across the front of it.. one visit i found like 12 wts.

  i didn't have time to scribble a note on all of them before my therapist called me in.. well this week.

  Question for "Awakened At Gilead"

  by yourmomma in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  did you post any experinces about what they taught at gilead and any details on how you woke up?

  i find this interesting since i would think that by the time a witness made it to gilead, they would be so indoctronated that they could teach that our savior is actually a horse named sally that was ridden by ted jaracz when he was a kid and they would buy it.

  im thinking about my mother today.

  shes been in the truth for over 30 years now baptized in her mid 20s.

  she had been faithful the whole time despite being married to a severe alcoholic (my father only studied) for 27 years.

  What's the BEST thing about being "out" of the "truth"?

  by B_Deserter in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  for me, it's having friends that i don't have to hide my lack of meeting attendance/service from.

  it's amazing how they teach you that only jws can be your real friends, but in reality, it's all contingent upon your religious "performance.

  " sure, if you're not going to meetings, they'll try to be "friends," by encouraging you to go back.

  I could never name just one thing...I love it all! I have never ever regretted my decision to leave and the more time goes by, the more I am sure I made the right decision! In fact, the only good thing I can think of with regards to the ORG is my brother is still in it and I love and miss him.
