Experiences Dating after leaving.......

by nemo in

friends

i am going to embark on an adventure of dating outside of the jw's, i am currently fading so worried people will see me, but so be it.

i have some apprehension just because of all the negetive conitations that exist with worldly people, afraid i will never meet someone outside the organization that could meet my needs.

but i am taking a leap of faith and seeing what will happen.

Blondie you lucky dog.

I started to date someone as I was leaving. It didnt work out but our split was mutual, with no hard feelings. I met a couple guys who werent all that great but I didnt get serious. I'd have to say every guy I've dated after leaving have been good, quality guys. I can say I've NEVER dated any real psychos or assholes. Although I've found most "worldly" guys to be "commitmet phobic". I do miss the "old days" sometimes when dating actually had a purpose for eventual marriage and a family, and not just a game to try and get laid.

First gay couples wed in US state

first gay couples wed in us state

two lesbians were among the first same-sex couples to wed under a new law in the us state of massachusetts.

I'm against redefining marriage because if we do...where is the limit to this redefinition?

I personally am for it! I think it's great that people who pay taxes, obey the laws, and love each other can finally be recongnized Legally by our government. I'm the last person to ever want to stand between people in love (no pun in tended)

But Yeru, you do make a very valid point. (Although I doubt I'll be able to marry a couch anytime soon.)I dont think it's right for state laws to over-step federal laws such was the San Francisco case. Then why stop at marriage laws, why not change other laws on a whim. I DO think people of the same sex should be recognized legally. Just think the appropriate steps of reform need to be taken

I met a girl last year who had moved from Wisconsin. She was living on her own and didnt know anyone so I kinda took her under my wing. One day during a long drive to a concert we started filling each other in on our life stories. When I got to the JW part she stopped me. Turns out she was raised a JW but never baptized.

She is from Sach-Prarie, I think that's how you spell it. Last name is Maier, family owns a German Resturant out that way

Questions

by Canti in

hello, i am intrested in the jehovah's witnesses and i was wondering if you guys could answer a few questions.

who do you beleive jesus is?

(fully believe)

ApagaLaLuz

Who do you beleive Jesus is? (fully believe) What do you believe about heaven? What do you believe about the Resurection? How do you feel about the other donominations in Christianity?

Yes, most of us on this site USED to be Jehovah's Witnesses, but I will try and answer your questions as quick and to the point

1: Jehovah's Witnesses believe Jesus Christ to be God's first "born" son. They do not believe in a Trinity or that God and Jesus are the same. They beleive Jesus was an angel named Michael whom God sent to the earth in the form of a human body as a randsom sacrafice for sins so that the Gentiles would have a chance to be "saved" and released from the Mosaic Law the Jews were currently bound to.

2: What do Jehovah-sWitnesses believe about heaven? They believe in a literal Heaven with many different levels to it, not just Angels. They do not believe your soul goes to heaven after death. They believe there is a spirit annointed 144,000 who's spirit goes to heaven after death to reign as Kings and Priests over the earth (kinda funny since they dont believe in souls) There is no sure way to know if you're one of those annointed, you just do. And the Witnesses believe that most have already died and only about 8,000 still remain on the earth today

3: The Ressurection. They believe that it can happen because Jesus ressurected people. Earlier versions of the witnesses beleived in took place in 1918. (correct me if I'm wrong someone). They believe after Armageddon, those whose were faithful Jehovah's Witnesses will be resurrected, and those who didnt know any better would be ressurected to be taught the Jehovah's Witness faith. If you knew the faith while alive and werent baptize then die, you do not have a hope of ressurection and are instead dead forever.

4: How do They feel about other Denominations? Any person who is not of the Jehovah's Witness faith is NOT saved, and worthy of destruction at Armageddon. They do not attend Weddings, or funerals if they are held in any place of worship besides their own.

hope this helps p.s. sorry for any typos, I was in a hurry :)

There is a really great interview included with the DVD with the director. One of the brilliant things about this movie is that almost ALL of the actors were not experienced actors. he said that he just saw the girl (the main character) on the street, and he said she had these eyes about her that told so many stories. (at least that's how the story goes anyway). Ironically, she has very little dialogue in the film, much of her story IS told just from watching her face. I was sucked in.
