Where are Gods people

by frigginconfused in

im having difficulty with this.

no where else can you find a chrstian org with people like the ones ive seen in the halls.

im not talking the good ol' boy club.

I am just thinking, I am going to go to this church this Sunday and see what happens... I have been thunking about it for some time. A couple of years ago there was a single mother with a boy going in there, the way she looked at me I liked her and thought at the time to try and get her to go to the KH with me, but that has changed, I think I will go there instead. Just a few weeks ago someone sudjested to me that I should go to that church and the person never knew anything about what I was thinking about the church either, he said they are all my age group. Bet I can find just as much truth there or more then going to the KH, besides I desperately need something to do. Hope I can fit in before someone finds out I tried to be a JW. Think I will tell them oh! I have tried all sorts of stuff over the years. I don't even want to talk about JW's... used to run with ex-JW's years ago that I have known all my life and finally realize I need stay completely clear of it.

last night i went to the casino for a friends birthday, we played blackjack and some slots, it was a 6.5/10 on the fun scale type of night.

i got up from the blackjack table to go to the bar to get myself a drink.

i sat down at the bar and ordered my favorite drink: a long island iced tea.

I had that problem too... Practically had to beet the girls off of me with a stick when I was young, but no one likes me anymore.

A few years ago went to a friends house and had a beer then another and another and we went of to a strip joint down town and we got kicked out then we went to another bar and was kicked out went to several other bars and was kicked out of all of them then we were put behind bars. Haven't even been drinking sense, we forgot we were not kids any more, and I don't think kids play the way we used to when we were kids.

People are way too serious now days...

I remember one time I was at a bar standing close to the bar and all of a sudden I mean everyone was fighting the whole place was a mad house knock down drag out and I was standing there drinking my drink like nothing was going on.

Do you find that understanding and explaining SPIRITUALITY "is like trying to squeeze mercury with a nutcracker"?

by Fernando in

this was the observation made by professor kieran flanagan who edited the compendium: "a sociology of spirituality".. .

at least the good news is that science is making a start in coming to grips with human spirituality.. one assumes our biggest advances will come from sbnr (spiritual but not religious) scientists since they are less constrained by religious baggage, dogma, sectarianism, divided loyalties, conflict-of-interest and other impediments..

If Anyone disagrees with MY choice of religion, they deserve to DIE!"

by BluesBrother in

when the zealous j w wholeheartedly believes in "the truth", that he has the only truth and that god favours only his chosen religion.... he is in effect saying what the title says when he nods approval to these and many similar statements in wt literature:-.

Just thinking, Jesus had pitty... says they tossed and thrown about like sheep with out a shepperd. I have not seen JW's showing pitty for anyone, they are hateful. Also the scriptures say it is God's war not man's war.

Like going out in FS they always bad mouthing about everyone when they come back to the vehicle. always talking like they are above everyone else. Too many incodents to really mention but I can not stand their attitude always talking to you like you have never heard anything or learned anything in your whole life. I only seen were an elder anounced some one being DFed but it did not the least bit sound like he had any sympothy or pitty for the person or sorry or hope maybe they come back or something, it was down right hateful, and the last time I was at a meeting this elder looking at me as if I was vomit or something... There no way I will go back around that again...

what is the history of this site?

by tornapart in

hi, i just wanted to know as i came here believing it is an 'anti-jw' site.

or at least one where former jws can meet together (or ones struggling within the wt).

yet looking at some early posts it seems it was originally for active jws.
