  Satan very busy?
  Hmmmmmmm........
  Isnt it possible that God has been very busy?
  Could he be using the internet as his "channel" to expose the false teachings and prophecies of the W.T.S.? Not to mention all the pain they have caused.

  Xander,
  Funny,
  I did think of that.
  
  I made sure that my daughter wasnt looking when I logged on.
  She is so smart though, Im sure if she wanted to she would have no problem accessing this site. She actually showed me all the basics when I first started using the computer.
  We dont let her surf the internet. We usually save her websites under favorites so she can log onto any that are saved. If shes looking for something new, she knows that we have to be there to help her find it.
  Im thinking that she would actually be bored out of her mind by what we discuss or completely grossed out.
  Either way, I dont think she would want to hang around here.
  We do let her e-mail without us in the room. God only knows what shes saying about us. Xena may have a few interesting tid-bits to add to her threads since her daughter will be getting inside information.
  Uh, oh........

  Hi,
  Welcome.
  I think many of us are just as confused as you are.
  My bio. pretty much describes my situation.
  I am glad that I found out the truth about the org. but it is definatly life changing and with so much of my family still J.W.s the conflicts never seem to end.
  I have only been out a couple of years so Im still finding out info. about the org. that just blows my mind.
  I have found that by comming here, it does help to talk to people dealing with similar issues.

  COMF & teejay,

  IM ONLY SAYING THIS ONCE MORE,

  THIS IS A JOKE!!!!

  I DO NOT FEEL THIS WAY ABOUT MEN.

  Obvoiusly if I thought my man was like this, we would not be happily married for going on 14 years. As a matter of fact, hes exactly the opposite on every topic. Well, except we arent rich, I would never want to change him and he would never tell me what to do.

  Im truly sorry if I offended you.
  Please forgive.
  I also thought your post was a riot.

  mango,

  Lilacs,

  Ya'll are so sweet.
  
  I just love ya' to pieces.....

  What about all the people who have died because the W.T.S used to forbid organ transplants and immunizations?
  Guess what? oops! new light! They now permit them.
  I Guess they all died for nothing.
  And dont tell me "Oh they will be guaranteed a resurrection"
  I dont buy it.
  This is not a joke.
  People are dead.

  Mav,
  Dont get me started.
  Read my bio.

  How can you still preach this blood doctrine?
  It is so bogus!

  There are blood components in breastmilk that the W.T.S does not permit in transfusions. What are they going to do, disfellowship all J.W. nursing mothers? Better yet, disfellowship all J.W.s who were ever breastfed?

  Leviticus 3:17
  Yes the bible says to abstain from blood but it also says to abstain from fat. Do you currently have any fat in your diet? I believe it is a personal choice what is to be taken literal in the scriptures but I think the W.T.S has crossed the line. Belief in a religious doctrine should never be a cause of death.

  COMF,
  "I dont see the balance of humor here"
  Uhhhhhh,
  Its called a "JOKE".
  ya' know. Funny ha, ha.
  Oh and,
  Dont even go there,
  teejays post was oozing with hilarious sarcasm and insults directed at women but I guess you would have to be a woman to actually notice them.

  God am I glad my man has a sense of humor.
  He, by the way, found this very funny.
