  Going out with a bang

  by LittleToe in

  2. friends

  after much deliberation, i decided to go "out" at the end of a public talk.

  it didn't go down too well, but at least i was able to give some of my reasons for leaving.. i've put some of the details on my homepage.

  i'll update it more when i get the time and the strength.

  I keep checking in on this thread waiting for Slim to come out and finally tell us it was a joke...

  Poor guy. I hope you find the happiness you are seeking. If it doesn't work out with the JWs, we will still always be here with open arms and open hearts.

  The difference between Jehovah's Witnesses and the mini heathens showing up uninvited to people's homes

  Go to hell.

  Jehovah's Witnesses would never parade their children on display for commercial interests

  Self-righteous, pompous people like you are one of the reasons I keep my children as far away from this religion as possible. Maybe if JWs displayed some sort of love I wouldn't have to be so adamant about it.. But your statements just further my proof of the love you people DON'T have.

  Today will be a parade.

  For Trick or Treating, are parents supposed to dress up? What are you doing?

  A one sentence reply that could jolt a JW

  by HBH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my mind was wandering last night, and i though of this as a reply to a jw.. "oh, your the people who believe 8 men in brooklyn, ny are directing the world's only true religion.".

  the sentence is a fact that they can't deny, but clearly shows delusion.

  any other one sentence "stingers"?.

  i want to celebrate it this year for the first time with my two daughters.

  they are 4 and 2 years old.. i am afraid to tell my husband though.

  i also don't think it's fair that i feel the need to hide it.. i'm pretty open about how i feel on most things, but i know he feels strongly about demons being involved in the holiday.. what do you think is the best way of handling this?.

  "I need a few Xanax, please send me well wishes dear friends!

  Two more Xanax, the computer is going to shock me from being wet with tears, how dare they dig up my past again!"

  Ok, this is really making me nervous. Does anybody have her number to check up on her??? I thought the usual was to have 1 Xanax a day for people who are prescribed them???

  Omg, no, not at all. I don't know this woman from a whole in the wall. Guess this isn't really JW related, but don't have anyone else to talk to about it so I guess you guys are stuck, lol...

  Society's fault for leaving me no friends to talk about this stuff with, lol...
