I am a epileptic, and smoking Hootie (weed) basically stops my seizures, without the affects of the common medications that are used for seizure control. Yes big Rx companies are the ones who cry the loudest about having pot legal because they know it works on so many heath related ailments. Enough with the status quo concerning our wonderful weed besides its natural.

I never gave them a service report that was true and factual, what I felt I was doing for Jehovah was between me and Jehovah, and I told them so too. You can thank Joseph Rutherford for turning in your time, prior to him the Bible Students never expected it and still don’t.

Concerning your question inquiring if anyone else has ever had "psychic feelings” or occurrences or uncanny powers in their lives: It seems to me my life was dotted with many such times, I had many premonitions that hit me like a ton of bricks about certain individuals, I did not seek out or encourage these moments they would just come upon me out of the blue. It has been a curse upon me many times when those I love or have been friends with for many years would become an active part of a premonition that would involve them dying I would see it in many details. Yes, I am well aware of how Jehovah views fortune telling of events, I would pray to Jehovah to rid me of this subtle ability that has trailed me since my youth. In some ways looking back now, I think it was a test in some sort of a way, to see how I would react as an imperfect man, I have always had a seed of hope to be in the heavens for as long as I can remember, so personally in my case anyway I think being psychic all these years has been a test between me and Jehovah to give me an opportunity to ultimately rely on him and his son in my heart, even though it has been very confusing and not in anything I may think I have created personally. Stay humble...

Even if it is scriptural based in some ones view, there are statutes and codes in the USA that do protect those who are minors under the age of consent of 18, from being intimidated frightened or otherwise being made to feel they must obey against their own best interest, even more so if he or she has not be baptized, but then again the age factor comes into play, again since baptism is a form of a contract and they would therefore be excluded from the said contract. "because of age.

In reference to your post: ('I was wrongfully Disfellowshipped out...help') the “freedom of information act” in this matter would have no bearing at all; ecclesiastical privilege trumps your desire to have your records. If I was you, I would just forget about the whole night mare if you can, and consider yourself luckier than most of the posters here on this forum. Truth be known it would not surprise me at all if they kept a tally every time someone was suspected of farting during the meeting, or shifting their eyes during some special needs talk.

Top 10 reasons why JWs don't have the truth - please contribute
by oldlightnewshite ini thought it would be an interesting exercise to ask everybody on here what their 'top 10 reasons why jws don't have the truth' actually were.
maybe we can see some correlating views/patterns/ideas that may help us de-programme the newbies that come on this site.
if eventually most people have an outstanding gripe/concern it'll help everybody understand the ex-jw mindset a little better.

Did your sexual world open up after leaving?
by Momma-Tossed-Me inalthough married or otherwise attached, did you women start exploring more sexual interests after realizing the org didn't have the "troof".
for example did you want to do things that were biblicly or religiously forbidden.. i say this because to be sexually liberated after the fact with a mate or otherwise would be great and i am a guy, so it is of interest to me.. .

Here's a vile little poem to darken your inbox
by under_believer inmy forever true-believing, born-again-jw mother just sent this to my daughter.
i love how this is saying "jehovah please murder 6 billion humans so i can be happy.
" remember, folks: things are worse than they ever have been in the entire span of recorded human history, and you can't possibly hope to endure.

I really did enjoy this poem, I think it is worthy of passing around to the members of the Jehovah’s Witnesses in my family, it just may left them up or strengthen them in their resolve. I say this because it is fast becoming the holidays the time for giving, who knows it may touch them, it did me.

Thus we see, the destruction and hurt that the governing body of Jehovah’s Witnesses do to the spirituality, of our Lords sheep at this end of the gospel age. First and foremost, it is to Jehovah your god and his son, that we all have hope, it is not to the governing body and their set of draconian rules that they will in due time will have to account. Praise be to our loving god who by means of his son has provided a ransom to deliver us (all) from the hurt of sinfulness. So, fear not.
