most religions indoctrinate a standard sexual 'morality' into their followers.
sex before marriage is wrong, gay sex is wrong, same sex marriage is wrong, masturbation is wrong.. let's not turn this into another religion bashing thread (too easy), i was wondering how much of that pre-packaged thinking you still hold to?.
i still value marriage, more than ever.
We made it! Checked into our room........... laid down on a bed together for the first time ever and..... fell asleep in one another's arms.
HaHaHa Giordano .....me too!!!Hot stuff didn't happen until the next day! I wonder how many stressed out exhausted couples this actually happens too...a fair few I'm willing to bet!
hello and thanks to everyone for participating on this forum it has really been of much value, for those of you that post here know that your words are not lost you never know who is reading your expressions, lives are being changed and nonsense challenged.
i’m not much of a writer so excuse my untrained writing style and grammar but i want to share my story to help anyone who is visiting here to see that we are real people, fathers, mothers, sons and daughters who have come here for answers, there is no agenda, just searching for truth.
i hope my story will help others as so many here have helped me..
anyways what are the odds that they would show up as I'm typing my delusional ramblings about my awaking. I just thought it bizarre, if they where writing this story they would of said the angles sent them...LOL. So I Got a meeting with the new CO any thoughts?
If they showed up at a random motel miles away from anywhere remotely connected to you and found you posting at 03.00 am...maybe then you might have reason to suspect the angel connection....NB drug dealers usually turn up at peoples doors just when they are trying to get clean too!!!
Beautiful share...relate to not being " allowed" to truly grieve as a JW, its seen as a weakness. So glad to know you...any friends you make here are unconditional xxxxx
hey everyone!!
i hope everyone is doing good today.
i don't share or comment often, but i'm in the mood to do that today.

I was wondering when someone was going to post some kind of eulogy to Bowie...
Je.suis.oisif.I felt such a terrible pain when I heard, he's been such a big part of my life...the magical part anyway, it hurts to think that amazing piece of sentient energy we knew as David Bowie no longer exists. Its not surprising his death, in particular, brings on existential angst for a bunch of music loving dubs who've just learnt this cruel but beautiful universe is profoundly unconcerned about the death even of a creative giant like Bowie, who means so much to us.🌹
Cry away. I'm joining you xxx
i'm in a crazy situation.
about a year ago, i was going to get baptized.
it was all planned and arranged until ttatt was learned.
OK you have to buy yourself time - don't worry about principals your situation is far too precarious right now, effectively you are being blackmailed and you need time until you are ready to SAFELY move on with your life.
Baptism should be avoided at all costs, it will complicate things later and as u only have one functioning parent AT THE MOMENT try to keep things as calm as possible.
Its a good idea to mention calling in the elders, say your fear around your mum is affecting your mental state at that u have to be sure you are not going to betray Jehovah by ending up like your mum. Say u know alcoholism is genetic so your fears are grounded. Yes its BS but if it buys u time till u get finish your education and move out, in other words gets your dad off your case for a bit its all good.
And please DO reach out to your mum, do it safely but do try, if u can. Goodness knows what she has gone thru with this cult. She needs help, perhaps if she knows you will be waiting for her if she cleans herself up it may be the motivation she needs. I don't know your situation of course, but I do know noons becomes a homeless alcoholic unless they are hurting like hell.
Anyway do anything u can to buy time, talk to a school counsellor and check out Secular refuge/safe houses.
this is a damn serious question.
you must know by now that jerusalem was not destroyed in 607 bce and that 607 was initially picked by ct russell by using his "pyramid scheme" measurements.
there is no hiding these facts yet you continue to preach this nonsense.
How about this for an idea - I empathize with your predicament- where I live younger folk, on their daily run, call in to older people do shopping/ run errands/ check on them if they live alone, as part of a scheme. The pensioner acts as a kind of coach/ encourager for the youngster's fitness activity. Could u do similar , marking it down as fs but just do good deeds instead - OK maybe give 'em a bible or an innocuous Awake about ' gods lovely world' sort of thing maybe?
That way you put in hours to help with your reinstatement/ fade but salve your conscience at the same time. If they try to pressure you to do fs in pairs the traditional way you could either 1. Refuse saying you get better results doing it your way or 2 take another youngster to 'RV' your elderly neighbours who may need some yard work doing etc - you get my drift anyway, maybe worth a try in terms of loo!ing really keen and doing exemplary hours?!
given recent posts on the forum and discussion, maybe we could play this game: would i lie to you?
in the uk we have this tv programme where minor celebrities tell weird or embarrassing stories about themselves and the rest of the participants have to guess if it is a true story or made up.
when the others have voted then the person reveals if the story is true or false.
Lostwon...its a game! Dudess!!
