Far out, what else has changed ??

there have been a few threads on the missing chapters in the new book, worship the only true god compared with the old united in worship book (first published 1983).
with the missing chapters you can draw your own conclusions as to why they have been omitted at least there isnt any ambiguity.. other chapters of the book are almost identical to the old, with some bits being omitted, other being re-worded and others being copied word for word.
so heres where the problems comes in.

i guess it's time for me to tell my story on this forum.
my parents came into contact with the "truth" during their engagement and so i was born into a borg family and quickly "assimilated.
" the congregation i grew up in however had very liberal views on many subjects, such as higher education, secular careers, and the like.
Mackin,
Thanks for posting your story of borg life. Truly a remarkable life within the borg. Yet no matter how high a person works their way into the borg, the fact is it is not the truth as they tell you. I found that where I grew up it was a not what you know but who you know that allowed a person to progress
Many of us have in some way shared in what you have been and are going thru. There are many good people here and it is indeed a place of learning and healing.
I hope we can have a good chat about our lives and how this is the beginning of a new frontier, one without lies and rules.
Take care and look forward to hearing from you.

Zanex, knock one back for me, cheers.
I know the feeling all too well, I gave a bottle of tequila a beating and then sat with my Joho mother and let her and jehoover and her BS religion have it.
Nothing like a good drop to let off some steam.

well, my best friend is getting married next summer.
i'm very excited for her!
she's an inactive jw and everyone on her father's side are active jws as well as her sister.
Hey Mony,
You truly show that you are the bigger, better and more thoughtful and considerate person. Stepping aside so as not offend her joho sister. As Andi said, if her folks don't have a problem, then tough shit for the sister.
Altho it is a time of joy, she obviously doesn't get into the joho way now by asking you and her cousin who are no longer active members. As a loving and caring friend you will take the back seat, but what does she want ?? If you guys were to be part of each others weddings and you missed the first one, then why miss the second. Her sister needs to snap out of her joho buzz and see the reason for getting together.
I'd be rather peeved myself at how the borg can still screw with peoples lives long after they have left it.
I hope that in the course of time things settle down and the sister chills out to the idea.

yesterday evening my daughter had the worst fright of her life.
she was taking a nap with emily, her 15 mo.
old daughter, she woke up when emily began shaking.
I'm glad that she was ok Ken. What a most frightening thing to happen. Sounds like it something that does happen to some children. Now I'm scared...
Altho I am always on red alert with my 2 girls. How much can you do to make sure they are ok without going around the bend. I'm almost at the same point as your daughter is, I am always going to her crib to make sure she is breathing despite having a breathing monitor on her.
I hope she settles down and is able to get some proper rest and enjoy her baby.
Hugs to you all

This can go overseas, yet to try that one out
hello all- recently joined, had some probs getting logged in, but here at last.... anyway, the question is: for those that can relate, when your heart feels heavy from the hurt, pain, regret, sorrow, bitterness, anger... and the lost years, stolen time, forsaken friends, broken relationships, wasted energies, abandonment, and lost love weighs on you --> caused by wt org.
stress.... how do you get past it?
what heals you, brings you relief, rescues you from total worthless feelings of inadequacy, comforts your wounds, keeps you from jumping on the train tracks?.
Mackin & 'shun,
Having someone to talk to you makes a big difference, especially if they have been down this very road you are on.
For many years I never had anyone who could relate to the crap that was going thru my head, I would bottle it up and try and put what pieces of my life were left back together. I had to leave town for a while and try a fresh start in life, but I still carried the wrong mental attitude. I got a job and a place to live and joined a local community radio station that needed volunteers to be DJs. I really enjoyed that, it took my mind off what I was continually bumming out on and gave me something I really enjoyed, music. Not only that, but as time went on I felt good about myself, I was getting a good response from the listeners, got a prime time slot and ended up doing Saturday nights 7pm-midnight with another guy. It made me feel good inside, that I was finally accepted by other people, despite the fact that my family shunned me and I was the scum of the earth.
I am still wary of developing friendships as it hurt to lose them all, but now I have a wonderful, understanding partner who cares, and 2 little girls who's lives depend on me. My partner goes to great lengths to understand how it was for me, and I have a friend who is exJW that visits and she will talk to him and see the common factors between us. I enjoy my discussions with him and it helps me just as it must help him.
