Yes I did that for a long time when I left.....bitter and angry too. Lately I have been getting into shape and not drinking at all. My sleep has improved ALOT also I feel more energetic......I'm on a clense at the moment....swaped the beers for green tea, peppermint tea.....took some time to break bad habits but it's worth it....life is already too short.....I'm finally getting over the Witnesses.

Anybody else drink too much alcohol and want to stop?
by new light ini have been drinking heavily my entire adult life with the exception of about two very happy years and i feel it is now time to try and put it down (again).
it's hard, though, as there is no one to impress except myself.
last time i quit, at least i worked with some sober people whom i found much more relatable with a clear mind and that provided at least a little more inspiration to continue.

They all spin some crap to make it sound like "Jehoover is guiding them." The Watchtower claims the anionted are represented by Noah, Samuel, Elijah, blah blah blah every bible character except Satan and Jeezabel.

Google Street View of Bethal
by JWinprotest ini was fooling around with the street view on google maps and discovered that you can navigate pretty much throughout the entire grounds at bethal in georgetown ontario.
looks like all the roads are named and registered with the city, but it's still private property so the wts would have to give permission to do so.
i just thought it was odd that's all.. and yes, i am incredibly bored and i have nothing else better to do..

Wife & I were Without Electricity for 6 Days - Empathize with 3rd World......
by flipper ina massive storm from alaska knocked the hell out of northern california , giving us a foot and a half of snow , snapping trees like matchsticks , crashing multiple electrical lines in the sierra mountains where we live.
knocking electric out for 6 days ( thus my dissapearing act from jwn for 6 days ) - we had a 90 ft. ponderosa pine tree ( 3ft, around ) crash on the lower end of our acre we live on .
it's still leaning on oak trees suspended in time.

The one Brother I spoke to at the Convention this year.....have a guess what he does......WINDOW CLEANING! I nearly choked on my lunch. The guy cleaning the windows at our coffee shop had an Awake in his back pocket!
If you ask them 89% will confirm they are Witnesses......56% will confirm they Pioneer. I did it for 5 years.

Clergy /Nazism photos provided by WTB&TS
by smiddy ini was looking through some old photographs the other day,my wife and i are not that organised with photo`s,we have boxes of them that we never put in albums,and we have been married nearing 50 years ,so you can imagine we have a few.in the early 60`s when i was converted their was an article in a watchtower dealing with the clergys involvement with nazi germany during world war 2 .being newly converted i had some long discussions with my brother inlaw,who was a catholic, about religion.so when this magazine came out i wrote to the branch office in strathfield enquiring whether i could obtain the photos proving this.not long after i received 4 photo`s from the branch office in strathfield providing this evidence.at the time i didn`t think to much about it.but now 50 years later i think why would they give a newly baptised person this?
(i know they would look for any opportunity to bag catholics then and now ) i have the original envelope from strathfield to me but the postage stamp is missing however the return adress is clearly identifiable.on the back of the photo`s is some information presumably in german and english translation.1.new years reception by hitler 2.hitler greets lutheran reichs bishop muller,3.papstliche gcandte nuutius vasallo di fowegrossa( papal representative)4.on return of saar to germany r.c.bishops von trier and speyer giving nazi salute.has anybody else ever had a similar experience,being given documents from the society,that years down the track ,think,why would they?.
