I'm still OBSESSED with this 'site' and with finding out more and more inconsistencies in the org. My BF gets irritated becasue I can be on the computer for HOURS reading and posting - but I think it's understandable! Being that I was born-in and stayed a JW until I was 30yr, there's a LOT of lies I'm trying to uncover.

Did you ever go through a period of obsession with all things WT related upon your awakening?
by miseryloveselders inwhen i was a firm believer that the wts was god's chosen organization, i didn't really research too much.
never gave much thought to other opinions.
if the insight book said so, than it was factual.

I NEVER understood this...the whole 'special talk' by a visiting Bethelite. What makes THEM so special? I swear, JWs treat Bethelites like Elvis personally made a visit to THEIR Khall - running over to the guy, wanting to 'touch' him and get his information. It's just gross. Idolatry at it's FINEST!

Get a lobster tail...they are this croissant-like pastry filled with 'liquor' flavored whipped custard..OOOOOHHHHH! I swear, when I tasted that, I saw the baby Jesus floating over my head. It was THAT GOOD! LOL hahahahahahahaha
Ace of Cakes is in Baltimore, MD - but that cake is NASTY (very dry) although his presentation is nice. But Buddy's desserts TASTE as good as they look.

he claimed he usually prayed to God to help keep thoughts of young girls from reaching his heart. However, this time he did not have time to pray.
That is sickening...really sick! But I'm sorry, that last line is freakin funny to me! This pervert didn't have TIME to pray?????? -

I know of a brother who was accused of rape! Yes - 2 pioneer sisters went forward to the elders (not the authorities - mind you) and accused this man of taking advantage of them. So he was immediately DF'd, lost his MS status, etc. He was DF'd for 2yrs...after NUMEROUS letters of reinstatement. By the 3rd yr, they reinstated him...only to find out that the 2 pioneers had LIED. They actually both had been dating him (at the same time) and in order to get 'back' at him for THEIR feeling slighted - they concocted this rape story and ran with it! Sadly, this guy NEVER recieved an apology...they labeled it an 'ooops' and claimed that Jehovah had brought the situation to light!

Conventions And Recommended Hotels
by Bangalore inwhy does the society make a list of recommended hotels for convention goers?
do they have business deals with these hotels that they do not tell the rank and file?.
bangalore.

The society would raise a big stink over JWs staying at 'unapproved hotels' because apparently that made things harder the NEXT year with the 'approved' hotels as people would stay wherever they wanted and PAY the full rate - giving the hotels the upper hand.
I'm sorry but nobody is going to tell me where I lay my head at night - shoot!!!

At a loss what to do RE: JW family and my kids
by 2pink ini have 2 small kids, ages 4 and 5 yrs and one on the way (via adoption!).
my husband and i faded/suddenly disappeared last fall, never to go back to meetings.
we outed ourselves and told our super hardcore parents/family members that we didn't believe it anymore, were choosing a different path etc.

Hi!
As I see it (and I'm not a parent) but I feel since YOU are the parent YOU need to dictate the limits of contact your children can have with their gp's. You have ever right to curb the conversations they CAN have with YOUR children! But remember, JWs are taught that no matter the circumstance, 'preaching' about Jehovah (informally also) is their duty - despite laws and regulations. SO, whether or not you tell them that they can see your kids as long as NO biblical discussions take place, prepare yourself for them to at LEAST slip in some teacihngs here and there...it's just what they do.
