Talk to rebel8. She thinks AA may not be the best step for those exiting JW's and one of the other tratment options would be better. I concur.

To any ex JW's in Aloholic's Anonomous
by digderidoo ini know there's a handful here.. could you pm me to get in touch or respond to this thread.
for any who have my email or facebook listing could you contact me as i have some questions with regards to how you have worked step 3.. i am at a place now where i am wondering if aa is going to work for me anymore, 18 months in and i seem to be going around in circles on step 3 and could do with a bit of advice from those of you who can identify with this.
it's not just the god thing, it's also the idea of 'handing your will over', i just cannot conceive the idea of handing my will over to something else as i've done that for years as a jw.

How could have Rutherford been a 'drunk'?
by wholewheat ini feel that the apostate's claims that rutherford was a drunk to be far fetched.
on the one hand, they claim that he was so drunk that the brothers at bethel shipped him to san diego to beth sarim, where he stayed drunk out of his mind, then on the other hand, they claimed that he ruled the society with an iron fist, that he was a dictator.
no drunk could have ruled the society like a dictator.

Michael Jackson murdered?
by besty inhttp://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/08/lethal-levels-of-anesthetic-propofol-killed-michael-jackson.html.
michael jackson died of "lethal levels" of the powerful anesthetic propofol, according to a search warrant affidavit unsealed today in houston.. .
the court documents quote the l.a. county coroner's office as reaching that conclusion after an autopsy of the pop star.. .

That's a hell of a lot of Benzodiazapines BEFORE the Propofol. Regardless of tolerance, he did'nt weigh much. Large doses of those meds will shut your body down.

I pose as Sam Davidow, but I'm really Steve Cuda, elder in the Albany OR cong. posing as an agent provacateur to show just how bad them apostates really are. I'm posing as Sam, because he's the brother of a man who sued me and the N. Albany cong. of JW's as well as the Watchtower bible and tract society and the N. Corvallis Congregation of Jehovah's witnesses. How dare people sue me, a Prince in the New System, an elder appointed by Jah. I really make This Sam guy look bad, huh?

No, SoM, "heeled" as in where we likely got the term "well heeled". It means armed.
