I know the following is not the type of story you are probably looking for, but I feel very loved every M-F when I walk up to my front door at 4:30 P.M. after a long day of work and see my 3 cats waiting for me with three dead animals at their feet.

Trying to Fade, Now they want to interview me on the SAD!!!

by burnedout in

i resigned as an elder some time ago, have been working on fading, the wife is getting used to the new 'me' (not stressed, better husband and father, etc.

), been missing a lot of meetings... even received a few statements such as: 'hi burnedout, it's good to see you!!!

last sunday, i took my one of my sons to the local dragstrip to show him the races, oops missed the meeting.

I am with Franklin on this one....

"Stay classy. Just decline the offer. Avoid games. Continue your fade. Enjoy your life."

80% of all web sites are pornagraphic

by Sour Grapes in

during today's witchtower study there was so much wisdom.

coming forth from the conductor and those in attendance that.

i could only say to myself "can't they hear what they are saying?".

12 percent of all Web sites are porn
25 percent of all search engine requests are for porn
35 percent of all Internet downloads are pornographic
Every second, 28,258 Internet users are viewing porn
89 percent of porn is created in the U.S.
$2.84 billion in revenue was generated from U.S. porn sites in 2006
70 percent of the Internet porn traffic occurs during the nine to five workday
260 new porn sites go online daily

12% is a far cry from 80% - typical brother running off at the mouth

well, i moved out of home to study more and live a "evil" life as my parents call it of going to church to light a candle!

i did this twice in the last month and i'm supporting a whore!

and by whore i mean you know babalyon the great!and all apostates are hitchhikers!

Sandro,

I believe it is best to let your parents have their beliefs - it is who they are. Go enjoy your life and live it to the full (as I can see you are doing by your pictures on Facebook). Show respect to them as your parents, play your cards right and you can have the best of both worlds (Yours and your family's)

New here - hello!

by sickandtired in

i can't believe i'm actually posting here.

i've been lurking for a while and i've been having doubts about this being the "truth" for years and sometimes feel really stuck and hopeless about my situation.

i'm married to an elder (who is 110% jw) and i was for the most part raised in the "truth".

Welcome sickandtired!

How many illogical JW beliefs did you choke down for years?

by james_woods in

this was inspired by that thread marvin did on the "ectoplasm".. in something of a confession - i actually gave that hour public talk on this subject.

and it was very popular with the jws.. i did not believe a word of it - even at the time.

did not believe in the "demons" either - with or without the slime.. it got me to thinking - how much of this did a small back room of your mind reject?

Why would the sovereign, almighty, omnipotent Creator demand, want and need my attention? Seemed rather small of Him
