  a new one

  i'm still inside because of family, friends... all my life is there.

  i used to have doubts (one year ago) but now i only have certainties about the org.

  another reason for staying, at least for now, is i'm living at home with my jw mother and she allowed me to go to college.. i seem to everyone in the congregation a normal witness but when i sit down in the meetings i do know 99% what i listen to is just the same failed prophecies and doctrines repeated always in the same way.. i'm now being "persuaded" to accept my appointed as a ms. though i'm not doing nothing special to get it, i'm serving in a foreign language territory simply because i couldn't hold on with the pressure of my family and elders from my congregation.

  Welcome

  It's sunday morning

  It's fantastic to think that I'm not going to the meeting today or any other day, all this time is mine.

  ...while i was on the couch drinking coffee and surfing jwd..;-) it was an elder and ms, trying to 'encourage' us to be a little more regular.

  (i told him i'm fine, i get enough fiber in my diet...haha ok dumb joke).

  i chatted with them for a few, exchanged some pleasantries, told them i've been havining some "medical" issues lately and that i appreciated their concern.

  Going back to a Kingdom Hall

  by hotspur in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  part of my 'rebirth' after my leaving jws was to rediscover and undo the 38 missing years of my love of music.. before i was baptised i was playing a trumpet in bands and orchestras... then came the empty years (we all know the stories).. long story short, i relearned my instrument through a music school.

  from there i joined a brass band, but recently we moved house and it was some way from the band i played in.

  so, i searched for a new band and found one more local to me... they even have their own band room.

  Today was the first time to see an elder since 5 months ago

  it was surprising , i was in my building drinking something in a cafe downstairs and there they were, an elder and a young sister preaching.. maybe return visit, they were from the congregation i was attending when i started fading.

  what was really shocking was the fact that we passed by each other and they didnt noticed me!!

  they were having a conversation and i think they didnt notice me, or they just ignored me ???

  Zid has to say "goodbye"... For now...

  my computer-support service has checked my computer because it's been rather "glitchy" lately, and the hard drive is failing.... so, i'll end up being cut-off from the board, for a while.... some of you have my personal phone number, if you need to get in touch.... **********************************************************************.

  here's something else that's been bothering me.... we're going to fly out to see the in-laws soon - and i'm very uneasy about flying.... if something should happen to me, could you people please help find good homes for my animals???

  they are all indoors animals, have been spayed/neutered, and are pretty good with dogs.... there are six cats - the seventh one, minx, will have to be "put down", as she is slowly dying of feline leukemia, and is far too "high-maintenance" for anyone else to care for.... but there's chomper - a neutered male, six-toed cat, somewhat feral but ferociously loyal to anyone who will be patient with him - and feed him wet food... he's a big, short-haired grey-and-black tabby... unfortunately, in the process of the hard-drive decay, my computer no longer recognizes my crappy printer, and so i can't load a pix of chomper... but he's a big cutie!!.

  australia, breaking news: police launch investigation into the rape and molestation of a number of children with the traralgon congregation of jehovah's witnesses.

  jw news can report that victoria police have launched an investigation into the rape and molestation of a number of children within the traralgon congregation of jehovah's witnesses over the past two years.

  according to initial reports,... the body of elders were strictly ordered by the watchtower bible and tract society of australia to cover-up the multiple rapes of a number of children within the traralgon congregation allegedly committed by a fellow member of the jehovah's witness religion.

  losing my religion

  by Evidently Apostate in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  have you kept your faith in god?

  i know this has been discussed but i am suprised at my change in beliefs.

  imo pretty much all of the hebrew scriptures are about an angry god who reminds me of an abusive father.
