i am filled with relief and at the same time frustration mixed with tears, because i have been holding my story in and not sharing it with anyone, except my husband.

i have felt many of the feelings expressed here but was afraid to say them out loud for fear of being an 'apostate'.

Hello Tera. Your story sounds similar to mine. I too am 28 years old and saw a lot of hypocrasy in my congregation. Thankfully I have a good relationship with my parents.

I just want to know. Do you and your mother talk to each other anymore?

Oral Sex is Good for You!.....Official!

by ISP in

daily mirror december 20th!.

pregnant women can reduce the risk of life threatening high blood pressure - by practising oral sex.

researchers have discovered that oral sex allows a mother-to-be to develop protection against an allergic reaction to sperm which causes pre-eclampsia, a condition which kills an average 600 babies and 10 mothers in the uk every year.. dr. louise kenny, who specialises in the condition, says"normally something happens in pregnancy which allows the woman to accept sperm, but in some cases rejects it, which results in her developing dangerously high blood pressure.

I loooooooooove it when I woman performs oral sex on me! In my opinion, it is better than penetration.

Vanilla Sky w/Tom Cruise

by patio34 in

felicitations to everyone,.

i saw vanilla sky yesterday.

it was engaging with a surprise ending.

gilwarrior

"Vanilla Sky" is a remake of a Spanish film called "Abre los Ojos" (Open Your Eyes). I saw the original when I was in Mexico, two years ago. It is pretty much the same as the Vanilla Sky, even the ending is the same. It even has Penelope Cruz in it. Both films are good, in my opinion. The ending reminded me of "The Matrix."

I left the organization in March and I am already thinking of getting a tatoo. I want it to be in the form of those stickers that you see on the packs of meat that say 100% Grade A Beef, but mine is going to say 100% pure Mexican.

i just remembered this yesterday.. a newly appointed m.s.

was assigned the bathroom detail at a circuit assembly in natick.. well, he naturally asssigned most of the bros to the mens rooms and the sis to the womens room.. well in the women's room they have those "special" items in case of emergencies and the little wax paper bags, i think.. now the trash bags were transparent, pretty much, and the sisters are taking care of throwing these used items in the bags so they could be carried out back to the compacter.

right through down the center of the lunch room.

Silliest thing that Witnesses told you was wrong?

by gilwarrior in

there are two things.

in the early and mid 80s there were witnesses saying that the cartoon characters the smurfs were not acceptable for witnesses.

i had two smurf cartoon books and my mother made me throw them away.

Here is another thing that I remember. There was this one guy who became an elder when he was very young. I think he was 27. He got in hot water because he got a person license plate that said JWELDER. I thought that it was silly that all the fuss was made. If the guy was proud of being a Witness then more power to him.

Kwanzaa and Festivus

by slipnslidemaster in

the question is: can jehovah's witnesses celebrate kwanzaa or festivus?

two completely fabricated holiday's created during the 20th century.

one is serious, the other a farce.. will you get in trouble at the hall for celebrating them?

gilwarrior

OK, here is what I know. Knanzaa is not celebrated in Africa. It was developed by African-Americans in the US.

Festivus, is a joke! The first time that I heard about it was on an episode of "Seinfeld." George wanted to skip a day of work so he invented a holiday called Festivus.
