Very moving story indeed! Sad that people still have to grow up like this! Religion has done more evil than good in our society. Glad you are here!

i feel the need to express how i feel and felt about my life as a gay man.
i was brought up from birth as a jehovahs witness.
this has played a major part in my life and it has been a real struggle to get past.

i can't believe no-one's posted this yet!!
how's this for 'tough love'?
in a disturbing article for the observer, decca aitken gets unprecedented access to the privately run tranquility bay camp in jamaica where us parents send their troubled teenaged offspring to be shown the error of their errors, paying up to $40,000 per year for the privilege.
Sounds pretty nasty indeed!

Good Luck and maybe till we meet again!

a while back we had a fairly sucessful posting history on stereotypical witnesses.
how about stereotypical elders.
i will start the ball rolling with two:.
Brother Pseudo-intellectual: Likes to hang out with brother Intellectual and tries to imitate him. Though lacking true intelligence he has to resort to repeating difficult words uttered by Bro intellectual, inserting those words almost at random in his talks making it absolutely obvious he hasn't got a clue what he is talking about. Does the same thing with fancy WT words like 'Permafrost'. His intellectual capacity is easily replaceable by a cheeseburger. Not taken serious by anybody with above room temperature IQ. Great source of amusement, though not knowing why himself.
Brother Amnesia: at first impression this brother seems really interested in your career, health and schooling progress, however you quickly notice in the cours of several days that his memory doesn't extends past last Tuesday. Quickly becomes ignored by most of the cong.

Well congrats to you then, trotafox!
Enjoy this day to the max!

*begin jaws music*.
yesterday i got visited by the dubs!
" then he said, only jehovah can judge the heart etc., you know, the usual inconsequential drivel all witnesses must spout when faced with this very important question, so i said, "so all those people are going to die then?".
R_F: The guy had a fit and begged me to call him if I wanted ANY source material, day or night, he would bring it.
Ask him for The Finished Mystery to go over it with him. If he starts asking for it in the hall they will sure be on to him. heheheh. And even if he does manage to obtain it, it will prove to be an interesting study.

Wow SYN,
You handled that sublime! I sure hope they will return.
Some tips: do some research on one or two points like earthquakes (do a search on it on this site) or inspiration. Try to use sources that are independant like encylopedia. When they return discuss this with them, pay attention that when things get nasty they will try to shift to different topics. Don't let them. You might learn them something.
Good luck brother Syn!

Hey PR
He is a 24 year old pioneer in London, UK. His Pic:
You can find him by selecting brothers, age 18-65. he is at the bottom of the first 10.
Seriously this guy must lead a dull life indeed if he plays with trains and is 'striving to achieve this 'spiritual-resume gold star'' as mike attendant! I feel sorry for him!
