Sadly, I dont think 2014 is going to matter to the average rank and file J-dub. I was talking to a sister this weekend at the hotel where I work and she is just as brainwashed as ever. Hopefully some people will start to wake up and just simply leave. And not waste any more time for this so called religion.

Hubby found out about me celebrating my kids birthday...
by cognac intold on me of course.
apparently, the other jw thought he was kidding.. i just said, you tell on me and take my family from me, we are done.
we will get a divorce and you will lose me, your home, and more then likely won't get to see your kids everyday the way you get to now.

That is so childish that your husband would go back and tell people at the hall. Good for standing up for what you believe in. I AM SO HAPPY to be out of that wack ass legalistic cult.

I'm so sorry about your experience. I have pretty good teeth and I am trying to maintain them. Its really important to focus on your health and not take it for granted if its good. One of the dangerous things that JW's teach is that the world is gonna end at any moment. It is BY FAR the most dangerous teaching EEEEEVER, besides many others. You give up on living in this world, and you take the good in the present for granted. Wish I hadnt, I'm 30 years old, and while I've done a lot of things with my life, havent even done a quarter of the stuff that I want to do. My brother is still stuck on it, so is my parents. I get emotional because I was stuck on that for so long. I lay in bed and think about it all the time. Thats why I must expose this cult for what it is! I warn someone WHENEVER I talk to them! Anyone, black, white, young, old, ANYONE. Cause I dont want ANYONE wasting there time in that. THERE SO MUCH TO LIFE THEN THAT WACK ASS RELIGION! People take there good health and time for granted, and by the time they realize that they wasted time, thats when bad things start to happen. I just feel bad because most dubs are just brainwashed and it just takes a question to really get them to open themselves to the reality of the wachtowers lies, deceit, etc.
Best of luck to you and your surgery. I'm gonna go and brush my teeth right now.

I understand why he did it, but sometimes Christians want it both ways: They want freedom of religion, but they dont like free speech. (No Offense to Christians on here). Kinda reminds me something, or somebody...mmmmmmm.
