Rules in the New System

by King Solomon in

ok, so even if laws are to be written on people's hearts vs spelled out into lawbooks, there's going to have to be some laws in the new system of things, right?

i say we get the ball rolling and brainstorm what they should be: after all, none of us got invited to the party anyway but since there just ain't going to be any party, why let that spoil our fun?

so, the theme is laws to be in effect in the new system.

howdy ya'll....as of earlier this year a judge approved a custody order that allows me to use my better judgment in regards to time sharing with the x.... however, because my children choose sports and academic "endeavors" (as the x refers to it);he chooses to treat them like the enemy and shuns both my 8yr &16 yr old.... while i dont mind that i have them 365 days a yr. its really affecting my lil one.

we have attempted to call ,email and text .

however he is totally refusing communication.

Thinking People vs.Non-Thinking People

by minimus in

jw
friends

most jws do not think.

they feel.

they are told a certain thing and they simply accept it or just don't care all that much what the real facts are.

I agree

What's The Worst Thing About Being A Jehovah's Witness?

by minimus in

jw
friends

for me, i think it's that the witnesses teach they are god's spokesman.

they represent his "faithful & discreet slave"....and that they alone are expounders of the only truth and that if you disagree with anything they teach, you are considered worse than vomit.. it's unbelievable because these people are wrong so many times, it cannot be excused!.

as a witness, you must accept every viewpoint and if you (and your family) do not accept it all, hook, line and sinker, you are "apostates"!!!.

Found Sheep

So many things it's hard to put the Worst!

I'd say living life like I was going to live forever. It creats an unmotivated lazy thought about life. You can always enjoy in the new system, but not now....

Finally! -- Why the WTS Discourages Higher Education

by Recovery in

i'm sure many of you have been wondering why the wts has stuck to it's adamant viewpoint of higher education.

let's settle it once and for all.

this will prove conclusively why it's in young people's best interests to avoid higher education.. candace conti has inspired hundreds, perhaps thousands of young girls across america to successfully take on the wts.

the only thing you made clear to me is that YOU are stupid

i want to have a few conversations in english to improve my talking skills.

So, Are YOU Better Off Than You Were A Few Years Ago In Your Life?

by minimus in

jw
friends

is your life better off as a witness or exjw now than before?.

is your life better off in the last few years economically?.

Found Sheep

YES!

Well lets see May of 2008 I was jobless, homeless, and didn't have a penny. I lost all my friends and family that I loved. I hated myself, felt shame and guilt. I couldn't sleep or eat and didn't see a light of hope.

Today I'm at peace with myself and life. I have a good job, a home ( too many anyone want a house in WV?) I'm learning to save money. I feel free and I'm happy. Sure I get upset from time to time when I think about not having my brother in my life. All and all I wouldn't change a thing. When I see JW's now I don't get that anger I used to get, I feel sorry for them. It's so clear NOW how blind and caged they are.

My new worries about my mom-Suicide?

by JWdaughter in

i love my jw mom.

we have had issues and struggles, but she loves me, i love her and we tolerate a lot of things we differ about because of that love.. you may remember my dad died a little over 11 years ago, and my mom took to a lot of drinking and she was very depressed.

i thought she would just die of despair or drink herself dead or drive drunk.. she has calmed down on the depression and i i know she still drinks too much, but i think it is a little more ocntained.

Found Sheep

It used to be if you committed suicide it was murder and you were non repentant and no resurection. I believe in the last few years it's more "it in Jehoavah's hands to decide" they use mental illness as an "excuse"

Have this conversation with her. Be blunt and kind but ask her if she is thinking of ending her life.

Best of love to you
