I think that applying for Mental Disability is a self-admission of mental illness. I think you should use that and go to court to get full custody because she is mentally unstable and unable to raise children.

My ex, the jw, is applying for Mental Disability!
by esw1966 ini can't believe what is going on back home in wisconsin!
my ex-wife, who is a jw, lost her job, lost her rental home, and has now taken my 3 daughters to live with her mother and step-father in law.
this was all done in secret and was spilled accidentally to me through the girls.

I believe Hugh Hefner may be God! Who would you pick? LOL!
by dawg inok, so i read what all of you would do with $200 million.
many of you posted something about playboy bunnies and the like....i think we'd all agree that hugh hefner has it made.
my college roommate used to believe that hugh hefner was god himself and i can understand his thinking.

That's the problem, he is hurting people. His magazine traumatized me when I was 9. I caught my dad looking at one. Hugh is a pig.
FlyingHighNow, I'm not so sure I agree that he is a pig. At least not for the reason you've given. I think that erotica has its place. For instance, what would you call the artists responsible for classical paintings or sculptures that feature nudity? Pigs? I wouldn't, and I don't think that you would, either. What I'm getting at is that there is a place and time for everything. I wouldn't blame Hugh Heffner so much for traumatizing you as I would your dad. Heffner is not, nor has he ever been the sole purveyor of pornographic images. Your dad shouldn't have been viewing Playboy when his young daughter was around to see it. There are a lot of things that grown adults do in private that they should never do in front of their children. I am of the opinion that viewing pornography is definitely one of those things that shouldn't be done in front of a child. Trust me, my daughter is 8 years old. I would never do such a thing if I thought she had even a remote chance of seeing it. And I'd probably beat the living crap out of anybody who exposed her to that.
The western view of sexuality and nudity is such that anyone who tries to introduce nudity (whether tasteful or otherwise) into the mainstream is viewed as a smut peddler or pervert. Let's be honest: All of us enjoy nudity. I'm a heterosexual male, so I love to see nude women. I'm sure heterosexual females like to see nude men. If we didn't, there probably wouldn't be too many people on the planet! Procreation wouldn't happen. I enjoy my wife being nude, but not in public, and not where my kid can see it!
I'm sorry that you were traumatized by what your dad did. I hope one day you can be at peace with yourself and what you saw. By the way, Hugh Heffner is a dork. Hopefully when I'm in my 80s, the woman who shares my bed every night will be with me for some reason other than money or fame.

Hugh Hefner is cool. If he's happy and not hurting anybody else, more power to him! By the way, if it weren't for his money, none of those women would be with him. So, it's not just men who are shallow. Money is the ultimate aphrodisiac. If it weren't for an unlimited string of shallow women who were attracted to money like moths to a flame, ugly guys everywhere wouldn't have a chance in hell! Do you think hot chicks would line up around the block to date Hugh Heffner or Bill Gates if they didn't have millions of dollars? Nooooooo! Men always seem to get a bad rap for being shallow. The truth is that most men realize that women are just as shallow, if not more so. So, men have learned that they shouldn't invest any significant amount of emotion or caring into somebody who is obviously persuing them for money, or because he has an expensive car or house etc. It's a game of users using each other. The one who wins the game is the one who completely used up the other first. If you're a single man in the dating scene, you know that most of the time a first date is more like applying for a loan at the bank than it is an emotional thing. The first question you're asked is "What do you do?" or "Where do you work?" followed by "Where do you live?" and then "What kind of car do you drive?" It's a financial fact-finding mission. Does he have enough resources to shower me with money and gifts?
I'm lucky. I found a woman who loved me for who I was. How do I know? Because when I met her, I didn't have two dimes to rub together and I was a single dad. She didn't marry me for the money, because I didn't have any. And it damn sure wasn't because of my looks! LOL. I think guys with money should all pretend to be poor. Rent a crappy apartment and drive a beat up car. The girl that will dedicate herself to him when she thinks he's poor will probably be a good catch. If I remember correctly, the vows go something like this: "In sickness and in health, for richer, for poorer, till death do us part!" I believe in that. Hugh Heffner has learned to manipulate the manipulators. He's an American hero. And, he's doing affluent men an important service. He's identifying gold-diggers. So, rich guys everywhere know not to date anybody who's been dating Hugh Heffner.
Now, should Hugh Heffner be a God? No. I think that for an entity to qualify as a god, that individual should transcend earthly desires. I'm not sure that entity exists. I'm not sure I'd want Hugh making the rules, anyway. I hate pajamas and robes.

Anybody Watching "A Raisin in the Sun"?
by tall penguin inright now on abc is premiering a movie called "a raisin in the sun".
it has sean "diddy" combs in it.
anyhow, it was filmed here in toronto and if you're watching the movie, the house they just bought is the home of one of my old return visits.

I did not watch it. Why? Because I'm a firm believer that there are some things that were done right the first time and that any attempt on redoing it would not only suck, but would border on the sacreligious. Remaking "A Raising In The Sun" is one of those things that was done right the first time and it can not be improved upon. Sidney Poitier performed his role to perfection. Anybody else would me a poor imitation at best.
Just like I wouldn't want to hear anyone remake "The Dark Side of the Moon" or reshoot "The Godfather". Or, if some joker was out there repainting all of Van Gogh's paintings. That would equally suck as well.

My friend wants to know how to stop the JW's from knocking at her door
by Velvetann ini wonder if anyone here can help my friend.
i have no idea how to stop the witnesses from knocking at her door.

When you answer the door, be sure you have a bloody butcher's knife in your hand. Play some Marylin Manson in the background. Look at them with wild, wide open eyes and say "Oh great! You're just in time! We've finished shaving the goat, but we haven't started the ceremony yet!"
If that doesn't keep them away, just coat your front door with cow manure. Sure, it stinks and it looks bad, but at least you won't get roused out of bed on a Saturday morning.

Are a lot of JWs lazy? Yes. I have seen it. I have heard them bitch about not having money, and then I offer them a job that they can do and they turn it down.
But, I was a JW and I wasn't lazy. My father is still a JW and he is one of the most hard-working men I've ever known. I've watched him work my entire life. I've seen him work until his fingers bled. He's in his 70s and still working.
I've known (and still know a few) brothers who work very hard and provide for their families. But you know what? The congregation looks down on those individuals because they don't more activley "persue the kingdom"! If you work hard and support your family, then you aren't viewed as spiritual. When I was a young witness, working hard and going to school, I had elders telling me that I should stop working so much and quit going to school so I can spend more time on "spiritual" things. I asked these elders if I quit school and work, who would provide for me? I could live at home until my already elderly parents were dead, but what happens after they're not around to foot the bill for me? Who would pay for my groceries and rent and medical care and my car? Could I turn in a monthly expense report to the congregation? Of course not! So, if I didn't want to be homeless, I needed to develop a skill, get a career and work. They didn't like that. So I told them to kiss my ass.
That was over 10 years ago. I'm a success, and they're still losers. The end.

Did you ever lose patience with unreasonable witnesses?

I get impatient when a JW just doesn't get that I am NOT interested in their religion anymore. I'm not interested in any part of it. I don't want to know what day the memorial is this year. I don't care if there was a new literature release. I don't care when the assembly is. Nope. I don't. My step mother badgers me and, moreso, my wife about "the truth" whenever she comes for a visit. We have to rent a dumpster and a bulldozer to dispose of all the Watchtower literature she leaves hidden all over our house. She even takes my wife's Vogue and Madmoiselle magazines and sticks Watchtowers in the middle of them! I get very impatient when that happens.

Went to a JW "funeral" on Saturday
by Dorktacular inmy brother called me late on the 13th to let me know that a friend of ours - who is no longer a jw - called him and said that his dad was being flown by helicopter to the hospital because he collapsed at home and had no pulse.
they took my friend's dad off life support on valentine's day and he died.
well, i was debating whether or not to go to the funeral because i have no desire to hang around a bunch of jws or set foot in a kindumb hall again.

My insensitive list of women's amazing abilities
1. Women can get wet and not even be anywhere near water.
2. They bleed without getting injured.
3. They make boneless things hard.

Being known on JWD - unable to discuss VERY personal matters.
by kwintestal infor some time now, my wife and i have met various people on jwd and we've developped close friendships with many of them over the years.
we have family members who post on here as well.
believe me, i wouldn't lose these relationships for the world.

I know. Sometimes I fear that I've said too much posting here. But, then again, if someone did uncover my thinly-veiled identity, what would it do to me? If anybody I know were to read my posts, it isn't anything that I wouldn't say to them! Mostly, I try to remain anonymous to protect some friends and family members who are still in the JWs and they might get in trouble simply by associating with me. I'm sure there are some lurking on the board who would just love to "expose" all of us and preach our identities from the mountaintops to focus all of the JWs wrath on us for daring to have a differing opinion. To those people I say: Get A Life You Loser! Anyway, I'm always glad to talk and if anybody needs to talk, I'm here. I promise, I won't call the PO of your congregation and "out" you or anything like that! LOL
