I’m also proud of the term “fader”. I successfully faded 10 yrs ago – something which took much strategic planning. I still have access to my family but I’m not harassed by the JWs.
So far so good.

I don't like the term "Fader" and I think it's unnecessarily self deprecating
by gubberningbody inthey faded, and that was it..... they were illusory, whereas i am real.

Howard felt unconditionally loved. The light was the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Christ Jesus the Savior. He had substance and was indescribably wonderful: goodness, power, knowledge, and love. He held me and caressed me like a mother with her baby. Next, they both rose upward, gradually at first, and then like a rocket - out of that detestable hell.
When there is a sudden change from third person to first person…. It makes you go “hmmm” about the story…

My kitty is having kittens soon and Im stressing about it. Advice?
by WuzLovesDubs inlike i dont have enough going on right now...my kitty is expecting and im not sure when she actually got pregnant but im thinking her due date might be around 5/10.
i have read online a bit about the process and i hope she can handle this.
i made a secure and private kittening box for her and she seems to like it in there with ripped up rags she can pile up into a nest.

Did you carry any No Blood paraphernalia around?
by cult classic ini never really carried anything on me.
it was always fun getting the card signed and all (a welcome change of pace at the service meeting).
but i always thought it looked too weird to have that in my wallet.

I always carried it on me. I was fully brainwashed so I would have felt guilty if I went anywhere without it.
Once I left, I learnt the real story about the whole blood doctrine and destroyed the little card. It felt very liberating to tear it into small pieces.

What is your "INTUITION" about THE SECRET "law of attraction"?
by Terry inever hear somebody say, "trust your gut..."?.
or, like obe wan kenobe: "trust your feelings...."?.
have you ever followed that "little voice" that whispers to you that you should or should not do something?.

My intuition tells me that “The Secret” is a load of rubbish.

I used to like, and believe in the song and the expression, “Make The Truth Your Own”. Although the melody had some weird notes which were hard to get.
Interesting point that some of those who did MTTYO, are now out. Maybe because we wanted a r’ship with God, rather than be mindless robots. At least, that’s how I felt. When I was baptised, although I baptised under the new wording, I felt I was dedicating myself to God, not an org. And when I left the Borg, I did so because at the time my conscience bothered me when I felt I had to chose between serving God or the Borg.
Is that song in the new songbook?

Were You Ever Snubbed In The Hall & Didn't Know Why???
by minimus inwere you ever treated by the elders, their families and "the friends" in a way that made you feel you were unwanted?.
there's probably nothing worse than realizing that you are not being treated with the same dignity and love as others.
once we come out of the organization, we expect better but sadly the real world can be cruel too.

Minimus, I’m referring to Page 1 of this thread.
My rebuttal of LaniB’s allegations against me are in this thread, which she started: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/experiences/130977/1/By-their-deeds-you-shall-know-them-aka-JWs-who-aint-that-christian

Funny how some ppl think it’s better to throw a jug of cold water over a person than ask if the gossip she was supposedly perpetrating was actually true.
BTW, the cold jug of water was nothing compared to the other stupid things Ellani used to do. Like grab my steering wheel while I was driving and trying to turn a corner. We almost had an accident. And she wondered why I didn’t want to socialise with her.
