i've posted a few times about the troubles with my poor mom and the &*!
@# elders telling her she can't talk to her daughter.
being that i'm the only family she has here to take care of her.. anyways - i've kept my distance out of respect for her....that is...until a few weeks ago.
Good for you Dawn! Taking the high road & living well is the best way!
Balsam, your son not having his dad preach gloom & doom to him probably suits your son just fine anyhow!
hey all,.
ok...i know for a fact that you have all probably heard this before but i am new here so i don't really know all the topics that have been discussed.
so, at the risk of repeating past topics.....here i go.... i am 16 years old and have a boyfriend who is a jw.
Hi Babygirl! Welcome to this forum.
Do you have a job? How hard would it be for you to decide to part with your hard earned money to buy a new car? The payment would be high & you would be paying for a long, long time.
You would do research, right? You would want to make sure that you got the best car that would last a long time, right? It is your life you are talking about, do at LEAST as much research! You would not buy a Ford car based soley on Ford's recommendations, would you? Would Ford propaganda be enough for you to spend your money?
You are doing the correct thing to research this. Your boyfriend thinks the jws are right & truthful because he was raised that way. He doesn't really know any better & probabnly never had a normal family situation or normal friends that liked him for himself, if they were all jws.
i was just wondering.
since college was (still is?
) discouraged, have any of you known persons of higher education to be in the organization, either by completing it while in or became jw afterwards?
I was only there from ages 13-15.5, but I knew of 2 chiropractors. One got his secretary pregnant afteer bringing her into the lie, so they both got dfed, he was reinstated, but not an elder anymore, & I don't know what happened to her. I only know so many details because it was a friend's brother. I know for a long while at least, her husband raised the kid & the chiropractor's kid never knew anything about it until he was grown. They all just switched congregations. What a wierd scene!
i've been a bit lax in posting, life got really busy over the last while.
i've had my own business that's been gaining contracts, but not quickly enough for mortgage payments and cat food.
hehe so i took a 5 month temp job to supplement.
Congratulations! Good news makes the heart sing

do you think the world would be a better place or not and please explain why.
That would be good wildhorses, BUT what about the people that don't bother to vote, but then complain? Do we force everyone to vote? And what about the faction that does not agree & doesn't win, then perpetrace force. What do we do with them?

If wars were outlawed, how would you enforce it?
