immensely and immeasurably so much better....
i have many goals and opportunities, but the one
goal i take most seriously is to promote normalcy
for my poor babies who had their childhoods ruined
by my idiotic allegience to a cult.... -

Christmas dinner, my boys don't like ham, We are turkey'd out any ideas?
by restrangled inon top of that one of my sons is bringing home a girl friend who is flying over from austria.. i'm thinking maybe lasagna.
i'm pretty good at that, but it doesn't seem real traditional.
the beef is so bad around these parts, i don't dare do a crown roast and besides that cost around $60.00.. what is your favorite dinner?.

lasagna would have been my suggestion
as it is a HUGE favorite here.... secret
ingredient is ground lamb in addition to
the beef...also, when we make garlic bread we add
oregano, parsley, fennel and rosemary to
the butter before we brush it on the bread -

Do You Accept ALL Of The Bible As Being 100% Truth?
by minimus indo you believe the bible is unfallible, unerring and totally accurate?.
do you believe the bible is a "good book" with much good about it but not something that should be totally believed?.
do you not believe in the bible at all as being "god's word"?.

while i consider it a part of modern literacy
to have a fundamental grasp of what the
bible says, i do not find it any more practical,
in fact even less so, than a good translation
of the tao te ching -

Christmas, the worst time of year for Jehovah's Witnesses
by koolaid-man inthe holidays are here and they certainly do present a problem for jehovah's witnesses once again.
christmas parties at work, getting christmas bonuses, dealing with holiday greetings, christmas carols, decorated trees and houses, santa claus everywhere, christmas candy, sleighbells ringing brings the witnesses into a very troubling and disturbing time of year.how do most witnesses handle it all?
we will be discussing these questions with former witnesses and active witnesses on the conference call this saturday night, december 19,2009 at 7 p.m. the conference call is presented like a radio talk show program.

Christmas, the worst time of year for Jehovah's Witnesses
hard to garner much empathy for a circumstance they choose to be in....
a self-inflicted wound gets no sympathy on the ortho-ward.....

Faders, How Often Do You/Did you Want to Pull the Pin on that Grenade?
by OnTheWayOut inmany here have stopped going to the kh and many have just reduced activity to some degree.
while today is not that day for me, i have had the "screw it all" attitude every now and again and was ready to tell the wt off, call the p.o.
or whoever, call my mother and tell her all about the "god-damned cult" she's in and why it's just wrong.

my circumstances are different in that
my family ( me hub 4 kids) were the only
ones in/associating and i was the last
one "out", by default, as i didnt even
know i was "fading" til i was well past
the point of no return..... i had never
even HEARD the term "fader" until the real
gods smiled on me and arranged
circumstance to lead me to aposta-villei have no keen desire to disrupt anyone's
allegience to the b0rg.... i WAS them and
at certain points attacks against "mother"
would have redoubled my efforts to cling
more tightly and actively.....that being said.... i think i not only pulled
the pin on MY grenade, i fell on the sucker
and it completely blasted away any notion
that i have any regard for the b0rg or the
things it declares as truth.... i stood proudly
by my transgender son in a front page article
that included quotes about a lobbying effort
in washington DC he and i had participated in....
so i am PUBLICLY known as a queer ally AND
a political activist AND a board member on
the very active local PFLAG chapter...think they think i am just waiting for
encouragement from a shepherding call?
(well, the phone aint ringing... not to arange
a "call" or to announce a JC... i am radioactive
since two of my kids were molested in that hall
and i am pretty sure i am a boil on their
uber-righteous asses)what i DO hope is that the fakers/faders
who want out will figure out i am approachable
and if they want to know what i know, i am
sending them here... to JWN.... to deprogram
and get their real lives on track....
