It's sad, but I have to agree with OUTLAW's last post here. Dan (and the wife) really needs to see a shrink already! If not, the drama merry-go-round will continue...

Perhaps human civilization is on a downswing for now and things may continue to be that way for a few generations to come. So wat? These things with human civilizations come and go in cycles, as we've seen in aeons of history previous. We might be headed for a certain type of dark ages again, but with every dark age there's a renaissance. The best we can do is to preserve modern history for future generations so that hopefully they can learn from OUR mistakes when the next upswing happens. Mankind is NOT doomed. Get a grip of yourself, d!

Dan,
I don't know quite what to say except that I'm sorry this is all happening to you and I hope you get through this with your sanity intact. We're here for you. Don't give up!

the bible or the jw,s veiw of paradise is not realistic, only.
if everyone conform to their standards, therefor not your.
personal paradise.
I'd like to be happy with lots of happy friends, family and other people around with a spacious home and plenty of things to share with everyone...
(but I'm not a happy person so it flees from me...)

i guess the title says it all, but i'll expand.. recently met this beautiful girl who through another party expressed her interest in me which was quite flattering to be honest.
im a 27 year old guy and truth is that i have really struggled with this kind of stuff since leaving the dubs a few years back now.
i guess i still have their theories floating around in my head, you know, all the old rubbish about dating some of which goes back to that youth book.. we spoke today for the first time properly and i think it's game on.
If anything would kill this thread, it would be the stench emanating from the presence of his royal highness, Estephan. I hope he gets banned again, soon!

back when i was about 14 i was approached by an elder that i considered a friend.
in hindsight it is obvious that he was "assigned to me" to encourage baptism.
he told me that he got baptized because it was the "right thing to do.
When I was a teen, I didn't buy into the "right thing to do ('cuz everybody else is doing it)" bullcrap at all. I just couldn't. Too bad i got suckered into it a decade later...

have you ever heard of anonymous?.
anonymous is an amorphos underground collective of internet activists - interactivists.
many of their activities are illegal, or at least reside in the grey area of legality.
I would be counseled for preaching the Wrong shit..There's New Shit now..
Did someone say something about the New Shit ?
THIS IS THE NEW SHIT!!!

I can't say that I have much practical experience when it comes to dating but I know one thing; lying and pretentiousness will lead to disaster in the end. Be the best YOU that you can be. Don't pretend to be what you're not. And of course, take your time to get to know the girl: don't be in a rush.
I'm too new here to have any clue what this Estephan douchebag has been up to before, but common sense will tell you that he's right crazy. He's a freaking nutter. Don't listen to a damn thing he says. UGH!

Sorry Nickolas, the WTS is simply not on the radar when it comes to the grand scheme of things. Hardly anyone out there even gives enough of a damn about JWs to even run a search on google, as daily search statistics bear out (discussed on another thread). Sure, the WTS and the leadership at the top are guilty as sin but the general populace just doesn't give a shit. Until the WTS launches an unprecedented assault on freedom of speech or the like, Anonymous simply isn't going to care.
Anonymous isn't all the purity and light that many seem them as either. Anonymous is not a formal organization with structure and leadership: if anything, they're merely a collective consciousness that resides on the internet, their actions being fuelled by memes. (Perhaps a good thing when it came to fighting the ever litigious Scientology leadership.) Its hard to get them mobilized and organized to do much of anything. Also, it has been consistently rumoured that many among Anonymous are identity thieves, child porn enthusiasts, etc; not exactly admirable types of people.
