Mission impossible.
Karter.
hey guys.
i've decided that during this time of being dfed, maybe trying to get reinstated, i'm going to enjoy my time with myself.
that being said, i would like to do some traveling when the weather warms up across the us.
i'm not really sure where to post this.. i've been with my boyfriend for 4 months now and i've really never been happier.
i was brought up in the church of christ with an elder father and i really believe in my religion, although i will admit to being a lousy christian at times due to sheer laziness (not wanting to get out of bed on sunday).
my boyfriend essentially lives with me.
If he gets reinstated you may well end up playing second fiddle to a f##ed up religion and by the sound of it his mother.
Best you sit him down and have a long talk with him about were your relationship will go if he goes back to the J.W's,Remember the religion will always come 1st you a poor 2nd.
It's difficult for an outsider to understand but thats the way it is.
Good luck what ever way you go.
Karter,
there was a recent thread on the "quality" of converts to jws in recent years.
it wasn't a pretty picture, based on the thread contents.. well, the lack of depth isn't restricted to new converts.. in our clam this week, one of the principal points for review was this:.
ne 1:1; 2:1—why can we conclude that “the 20thyear” mentioned at nehemiah 1:1 and 2:1 is countedfrom the same starting point?
The quality of Elders has gone down due to the pool they have to pick from.
At least 70% of young ones are leaving before they are 20 so it leaves very few to make up the Elder body.
In my old congro they had an Elder who had clearly smoked to much dope before coming a J.W his talks were painful and all over the place.
The decent older Elders are all worn out or past their used by date an are Elders in name only.

alot of members don't have a flag or country name beside their user name, and well frequently one doesn't know where that particular person is from, tell us your country, state, county or what ever you feel like giving out.
if you are going to post please at least devulge your country.. me, i'm originally from taranaki, new zealand via auckland.
for the most of this decade i have been living & working in brisbane, queensland, australia.. .
