Christopher, hang in there. I can feel your resentment and desperatation not for yourself, but for what you are being pulled and pushed through. The bullshit of this organization is deep, warm, and stinky. Sorry you are in the middle of the poo man, really sorry.

Let slip the dogs of war...
by sd-7 inthe calm before session 2 of borg court is a chilling one.
quietly, our units go about their duties, but deep down, they're wondering: can we match swords with the very powers-that-be?
we are fighting against mount olympus itself, the elders, the organization--with our beloved wife and child looking on.

Do you have a Jezebel photo?
by feenx inalright, so i am sharing some fun tidbits with my fiance about things i remember as a kid growing up.
we were trying to remember the woman from the old testament who murdered a king (she went to a christian school so we both got hammered with the bible) and we couldn't.
inevitably when you're talking about any women from the old testament jezebel comes up.

Funny story about the wild beast harlot...the daughter of a CO posed for that picture, his name was Barr...not GB Barr, just a circuit overseer. Anyway, one day meeting for field service he made a joke about how proud he was that his daughter was the original harlot.

A JW in X-Factor!
by bohm ini saw today that one of the contstants in the danish x-factor is a jw, and she is quite good!
a tabloid had a newspaper where she described her faith, she sounded quite nice and said she had never been teased by her faith.

Which Websites Helped You Leave the WT?
by FreudianSlip inthe website that finally opened my eyes to the wt's lies was this one: http://www.towerwatch.com/testimonies/judicial_committee_meeting.htm.
it is an excellent read.
i even wrote to the guy, james caputo, to show appreciation for his courage to post his story on the www all those years ago when there weren't yet a ton of ex-jw sites.

Without doubt, JWfacts opened my eyes to the things I always thought were a bit fishy....and then this site as well. I remember feeling so bad, so guilty looking at the sites, but now they make me happy, and proud, and stronger. The truth really DID set me free.

Glad to "see" you back, and glad everything went well for you :) It's refreshing to me to see how you can take what your parents give you with humor and looking at it with objectivity. I wish I could do that....maybe with time. Heal fast!

2 JW's in the parking lot...
by White Dove inthey met me as i was getting out of my car at my apts.. after stating a few of my newfound beliefs in possibilities, the one lady kept quoting the bible to me after i said that i had no respect for it and didn't believe in it.. i told them both that i thought it was simply a book with interesting stories rewritten over and over again from mythology.. i mentioned epona taking elish(j)a to heaven in a flaming chariot.. i told them that the jesus story has been rewritten many times before the supposed event even happened (egyptian god horus).. every time she brought up something new, i countered it with why i thought it was not believable.. the best one was when i got to tell them of my relatives who passed away at an old age and did die.
i told them that truth doesn't change.. that truth should never have been taught as a fact to be counted on.
when it did change, i said that you have to take a step back and say come on!

I'm always impressed when I read the experiences of you all that encounter the JWs out and about, or ever at your homes. Your arguements or points are always so well made, I'm amazed the witnesses before you don't just stand there slackjaw. Good for you, good for all of you. I'm still in a hide and avoid mode, even though no one has tried to approach our home or us in public.
