  Of course you are welcome. Lots of people here in a similar situation to you.

  Your not being a hypocrite, you've just been backed in to a corner, not of your own making.

  Hope you find some comfort here.

  Missing Link - So Michael Jackson, damned if he is, damned if he isn't? Do you foget he was tried by a jury (many of them were probably more than willing to see MJ go down for his alledged crime), yet they were unable to find ANY evidence to find him guilty, yeah and I bet they would of loved to.

  It was obvious that the kids mother was a greedy, nasty, blackmailing liar and whose stories never held up in a court of law.

  Therefore Michael was found INNOCENT of the crime. INNOCENT = NOT GUILTY

  By the way I'm a mother of one,and would kill will with my bare hands any peado who so as much lay a finger on my daughter.

  Seriously? I'm on another forum where most posters are saying horrible, nasty things about him, so obviously not EVERYONE loved Michael.

  I do by the way and I'm really sad that he's gone. RIP Michael.

  lonliness and the very real temptation

  i studied with the witnesses when i was in high school, 1984 my father didn't care at all but my mother was against it.

  about a 4 month book study with the paradise book.

  we met at a nearby jw's house once a week for a couple of hours.. since i was only exposed to the teachings and the very kind people for a short time i have very good memories of my experience with book study and the jw's.. i'm alone and lonely and they knock and i talk.

  District Convention at Hayesbridge, Surrey?

  by sweet pea in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my dad informs me that the dc this year for many is at hayesbridge assembly hall.. now that is bizarre.

  i can't imagine what everyone must be thinking?

  i think i'd have been relieved in one respect (no having to trudge over to twickenham and cope with the little ones at a stadium that is not particularly child friendly) but on the other hand there was something special about being together with such a 'great crowd of witnesses' and seeing people you hadn't seen for a long time, etc, etc.

  Why are they having the DC at Hayesbridge?

  Isn't twickenham big enough? I know the parking at twickenham is no longer a money spinner for them as the parking is now free.

  Utter hypocrisy of the majority of it's members.

  Lack of love.

  Dogmatism over scriptures that have clearly and definitively been misapplied.

  Just couldn't sit in silence anymore, had to leave.

  hello everyone, my wife and i are currently associated with jw's.

  my mom converted when i was 3 years old in 1975, my wife was born after her parents converted.

  about 4 years ago however, my wife and i have seen many things that have discouraged us enough to start doing some research into the validity of this religion.

  Name Things JWs Believe That Are Not Actually Biblically Provable

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here's one example: being a congregation publisher.

  nowhere in the bible does it say you should be a "publisher" and turn in your time if you preach.

  they try to twist the scriptures by saying that numbers are constantly being recorded in the bible so then conforming to the rules of being a publisher is from the scriptures.. yeah, right..

  Reniaa :I see alot of justifications to allow things you know the bible disapproves of, particularily festivals to falseGods being made over to Jesus without consideration that Jesus would not want unclean rituals from false Gods put on him. romans 14 is a good chapter IF YOU READ IT ALL not just the bit you like.

  I take it you didn't get married , wear a white dress, have a wedding cake, never went on honeymoon. I assume your not wearing a wedding ring Reniaa -
