Are you baptized?
It doesnt sound like it, if you are not baptized then they have no sanctions they can use against you so why are you making any effort at all to quit, just quit.
well, it has come to another fork in the road.
i have been going to other meetings and skipping more.
car groups and two bros tried stopping by my house recently but i was not home or gates were locked.

Everyone over the age of 5 years old should be mandated to carry a fully loaded assault rifle, a pump action 12 guage and a 9mm pistol. Failure to do so at all times would lead to a brain labotomy to remove all traces of a sense of humour.
Humour is from Satan, guns are from God.
Problem solved!
i googled "who was buddha," and read that buddha is a title meaning one who has awakened to reality.. sounds good!.
marina.
So you're not a buddhist, you're a buddha. That's even better.
i have been following the oscar pistorius trial, and as some of you would know, the way he grew up is said to have affected his psychy.
he's said to traumatised and disturbed by his past.
do we know if there are any ex-jws who were also diagnosed with the same or similar kind of mental illness/disorder?
I've followed the trial closely and must admit the GAD stuff struck a real cord with me. I'm not diagnosed and likely never will be but i see a lot of the signs in myself.
Sometimes, there are no icons at all when I post on here apart from: font size drop down box / select background colour / insert non breaking space.
This has happened now so i can look and see what options I have available and those 3 are it.
If this happens, which it does about 50% of the time, i just submit the post anyway and then immediately edit it and then magically ALL the options become available like emoticons / picture insertion etc ect.
So it could be you have no option to put a picture in until you submit and then edit the post.

Page 6, and only page 6, of this thread is giving me a malware warning. Anyone else getting that?
Yes me too, it said there was content from a known malware infected site, (an image meme site) so someone linked to an image there. It doesnt mean it is infected just that it could be.
she said, "so, what made you decide to study this book?
at this point, she opened with a prayer.
"...and some decide that such questions are best left to religious leaders and teachers.

a few of my buds are hanging out tonight, and i rarely get the oppurtunity to hang with my "worldly" friends.
really, i'm only able to if my parents aren't around.
my parents know i don't believe in the truth, and that i'm moving out in around two weeks.
"Rarely" would be under your current circumstances, right? But in a few weeks time you will be out of their house and you can adjust those odds, correct?
No harm in being patient about it then really and not just giving your parents the finger tonight eh.
