so as not to hijack the current "paul" thread, i'll comment here.
paul spoke about circumcision numerous times and even circumcised timothy.. not to make light of the topic, but i have always wondered, how did anyone know if someone else was circumcised???
i have been a jw my entire life and will honestly tell you that i don't know which brothers are circumcised and which are not.. i mean, did guys back then watch each other at the urinals or peek in the windows when someone was getting dressed?
For so-called straight blokes, Jewish men are WAY too interested in others blokes cocks!
Also when is a 'tip trim' really circumcision, I mean sometimes I have an 'off the shoulder' look & sometimes I do not, yet I am not circumcised.
No wonder Jews hated dogs so much, it reminded them of themselves & how interested THEY were in 'getting to know' each other.

i think, that since i left the cult, i've finally learned to love myself.
i know i'm a better person now.
that i'm good and lovabl, (and if there is a god he may also be happy with me.
I'm still trying to like myself.
I appreciate now not having to compare myself with what other 'super' JW's call 'giving their all' to Jehovah the Borg'
Ed
practice?.
was it to get a head count on about how many vultures, ravens and crows he'd need to clean up the planet?.
He made the dino's so their poop would manure the ground to feed the plants the dino's were eating.............................simples

But Hershey's Kisses have a 'vomit' taste about them.
However opinions are divided:

this is a responce to john does "what is it with women" post.
i'd like to point out that men do even more irrating and inexplicable things than women.... 1) not wanting to ask for directions.
2) getting a kick out of seeing people blown up in movies.
Some wont ask for directions many men will.
Some men like violent movies many do not.
Some wont lift the toilet seat when they pee many men do.................be grateful for that!

hello, i am jehovah witness and gay.
i am from puerto rico.
i would like to know how hard is to leave the organization.
Hello Yosisoy, welcome.
I know first hand what you have gone through. I too was raised as a JW & knew from an early age that I was attracted to men & NOT women.
Please feel free to express yourself here.
SOM seems to have some serious issues of his own to deal with as far as kindness & empathy goes & should not have knocked you for six with your first post.
Kindest wishes
Ed
yes, i do!
i did it 20 years ago, but the elders still remember what i did, sometimes i wish they never knew about it.
.
Yes I too regret 'confessing' to an elder about me struggling to suppress being gay.
Reason??
That elder is no longer a Jehovah's Witness!
Could he feel he has no reason now to keep it to himself?

nearly every living thing is drowned to death because of the badness and general mischief going on during noah's day.
why aren't the angels who materialized bodies and fathered a race of giant, violent freaks destroyed as well?.
i know that they, presumably, left their bodies just in time to escaped the flood, but that shouldn't be enough to escape the wrath of almighty god.. it's interesting that the genesis account says very little about them.
WTWizard you worry me!
I'm not a WTS sop & there are many things 'God' has done or now does or doesn't do that I feel at odds with but to read excuses made for Satan on this discussion board has pulled me up with a jolt.
Does anyone else feel this way?
Ed
