Suicide - How many do you know within the JWs
by Lady Lee inthw wts likes to play games with their statistics.
one interesting but truly tragic is the number of jwhovah's witnesses who commit suicie.. now i suspect that if a person commits suicide shortly before or after they are disfellowshipped then the elders would say that person wasn't a witness or that they had done something so terrible that they were too guilty to admit it and by their action of committing suicide they pretty much declared they were no longer a jw.. yup fancy talk to make sure any crap didn't fall on them.. so my question.. do you know of cases like this?
if so then can you answer a few more questions.. had this person been dfed or in real danger of being dfed or whatever the equivalent is if they were never baptized?.

If there really are such things as angels, then that's what dogs are. Take care. Mrs. Flip
It was bad enough to read the news of panhandlegirl's loss but then to read the ^... I"m all tears right now.

It is an extremely important and stressful event. I cried like a baby for 2 days (and mourned for weeks) when my guinea pig, Pepper, died. And every once in a while I get really sad that my dogs will die, too. Pets are our family and they bring more to our lives than we ever imagine they would.
So sorry for your loss.

Higher Education... Some ideas for those that think it is too late
by adjusted knowledge inso many witnesses lost the opportunity to pursue higher education in their youths.
perhaps it took decades for many here to leave and now feel it is too late.
degree you will also earn multiple certifications from other agencies:.

Very helpful topic.
Research, research, research. And have an end game in mind.
It really is never too late to start.
And many who earned degree decades ago, come back for another round of training and education.
It's something you do for yourself.

by DATA-DOG inhave you had the pleasure of hearing this doozy??
i believe it was presented at the circuit level first, it has filtered it's way down.. the poor eldub opens with this definition of the word fantasize:.
"to conceive fanciful or extravagant notions, ideas, suppositions, ect.
