  Well today is the day that I leave the WTS

  by Leander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this morning i told my wife about my decision to step down as a ms and that i also would'nt be attending any meetings.

  she made a few comments that i expected her to make, but strangely enough she was for the most part very silent.

  she made it clear that she was against the decision but outside of a few other comments she said very little.

  Well...it takes a strong man to go thru what you are doing.
  Even though you know the dubs are not the truth.....it has been a big part of your life and this must have your emotions stirred.

  I feel bad for your wife too, because in her mind....you are now lost and have left Jehovah. She may not act too shook up but you can bet she is.

  I hope you get thru this OK my friend and we are here for you.
  Good Luck!!

  PS. Keep showing your sweetie lots of love at this point because she will expect you to "CHANGE".....you know...the paranoia thing they have about us when we leave.

  Hilda Partaking From The table of Demons

  by Guest 77 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hilda, why do you overstep commandment of god because of your tradition (hanging out on apostate web site)?

  matt.

  15:6-11 you make god's word invalid because you associate with and partake with apostates.

  Whoever Hilda is you can bet she was a loser as a JW!
  This person could never match up to what a true dub should be.

  No RESPECTABLE dub would ever talk in the matter she does.

  She's just a outcast who has few friend's because of her poor personality who has found a place to get attention and not feel threatened here.

  Many dubs are of this nature because they are destined to be trol-like in their behavior. Her parents may have had the same nature......right Hilda?????

  A QUESTION FOR JWs

  by QCA1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi .

  i want to direct this question mainly to those who are still jws who post on this board,xjws please feel free to comment.. if the governing body were to call on you all including your children to congregate together each at it's respective kingdom halls,as persecution of gods people has reached it's climax and you have to fight to the death,would you follow that call.

  Well............I think that be an illogical question.

  Are they supposed to stay holed up in the hall till the persecution is over? They might starve.

  JW's don't fight ...remember?

  angharad has abandoned me and gone on a girls night out!.

  to cut a long story short - i'm starving to death and the end may be only minutes away .... there is a large white box in a place called "kitchen" (hey, it lights up when you open the door!

  ) and apparently this can be used with a "noven" or "micro-drive" (or was it "wave"?

  Simon: Don't you know girls night out is for the purpose of forcing us guys to cook?

  The women love it and think it's funny......what do you think they talk about on this night out.......they are laughing about us being home and having to cook!

  Actually I just learned how to make a hotdog out of just using balonie and cheese....(how the hell do you spell balony?)...while my wife was gone working on a hall remodle and eating the good food.

  JW's and the (in?)ability to write coherently

  by Billygoat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've been a member of this board since summer of last year.

  i'm also a member of several jw groups on yahoo.

  i love posting stories on the pedophilia scandal or the un stuff just to see what everyone else says.

  Skully is right.
  I have seen many trol's on this board who purposely spell incorrectly to fool others. Fred Hall is a good example... but we like him.

  Many who do this, forget sometimes and use grammer and spell just fine so it proves it is done on purpose.

  Well, I really hate to do this, because I've found some nice people here. Someone very special told me last night that if I'm really serious, then I have no business being on this site.

  This makes no sence to me doug!

  You admit there are good people here and you have enjoyed their company. What's the problem? Is it bad influence?

  Who is this friend who's words seem to have quite an impact on you?...(no answer needed)

  I had thought about this same thing awhile back because my thinking was changing. Well....it changed for the good as many things said here has opened my eyes to investigate some things further.

  To be afraid you will be paganized here is WT thinking....truth has nothing to fear.

  Anyway, I enjoyed your time here and hope you reconsider

  So sorry Moe.
  I remember sitting beside my wife's dad as he was dying.
  Alot can run thru your mind.

  When my dad died, I didn't shed a tear. I loved my dad very much and to this day do not know why I didn't cry.I bawled my eyes out when my dog passed away!

  Life will go on and in time you will deal with it.

  Anyway....a big hug from me ...and know we are all here for you.

  PS. Piss on all those who shunned you! Heartless whimps!
