I have absolutely no idea who any of these guys are...and im gonna stick my neck out and say the majority of jdubs wont have the slightest clue who any of them are either...it must be insulting for them to walk about at conventions and not get noticed !
LOL @ THE OPEN BIBLE
I think i can see Crisis of Conscience on the bookshelf

nah called off my wedding 3 months before my big day and DA'd myself 2 months later. I've been DA'd for a year now..ive been surprised by the reaction of people whom ive known all my life who just walk past me in the street and pretend they dont know who i am in the supermarket etc...guess i was naive in thinking that since i was quite well liked that people would be a bit less hard line with me...especially didnt expect it from my family....oh how very wrong i was

Did You Ever "Grieve" God's Holy Spirit?
by minimus inanytime the congregation's numbers were down or there were numerous problems in the hall, the elders would question whether anyone might've grieved the holy spirit.
did you ever??

I think its terrible the whole mindset of "courting with a view to marriage". I mean its obvious when you hit 16 17 you will naturally want to go out and get a gf or bf or "get to know other young ones in the congregation" but as soon as you have been going out with them for a year or 2 people start dropping hints about marriage. I even had elders coming up2 me asking me when i was going to make an honest woman out of my gf !! The pressure on young ones to marry the first person that they start "getting to know" is unreal and i think its why there are so many broken marriages in the org.

Ok..that went well..i'll try again....hehe
Thought i'd introduce myself as im new around here. I'll try to give u the shortened version of my story....
I have a catholic dad but my Jw mum brought me up in the org. I had a few doubts about the validity of their claim to be the FDS and that everything they taught was correct but i never really let it bother me. Eventually got baptized at the age of 20 cos i wanted to get married to my jw gf whom i had been going with for 4 years, n for some reason its frowned upon if your not baptized but u get married. So i bowed to the pressure and got dunked. I realized after about a year and a half of being baptized that i didnt like the way my life was going and that i wasnt ready to settle down and i didnt want to be the next ministerial serpent in the hall. So i DA'd myself and met another girl a while later and moved in with her. I left the org thinking i had left behind the true organization and felt guilty for a little while. Thankfully I have now seen the org for what it is and will definitely not be going back. My mum, sister, brother-in-law and my little niece now no longer talk to me which is hard to take.
Thats the short version...bet u wouldnt like to see the long version !!!
