Have You Ever Gone To Meetings While Under The Influence Of Booze Or Drugs?

by minimus in

i had an italian elder friend that regularly drank his wine (daily) and it was obvious that on some thursday or tuesday evenings, he was clearly under the influence of alcohol.

quite often, we would have a 3:00 sunday afternoon elder's meeting and once again, i could tell he had been drinking.. nobody ever brought it up but i knew him well and he loved his vino and martinis!.

we had a number of people on meds that would either act like zombies at the meetings or cry or get aggressive.

I used to go out in service stoned sometimes. It sure made the whole experience a lot funner...Meet for service, strike out on my own because I was just 'doing calls' (hehe), drive out to the boonies and light up a joint. Do some sight seeing then head back to Mickey D's and meet the others to get munchies and relate my wonderful experiences to the others. It was a blast.

One time I actually went door to door in my own territory stoned off my ass. I met this hippie type dude and he invited me in. We had the most interesting conversation about Star Trek! Then I noticed he smelled like pot smoke. I asked him if he'd like to get high and he was very surprised to have a JW ask him to get stoned. I told him there was a top secret splinter JW group that felt like smoking marijuana helped us get closer to god. He bought it and swore he'd not tell on me. I got out my reserve joint and we smoked it and played his Xbox. He became a return visit I went to for a couple of years until I moved away. It was my best call ever.

Really, you're calling everyone here a mindless idiot for having been involved with the nitwitnesses including yourself.

How an original STAR TREK episode nearly cost me my first JW marriage in its first year...true story I find funny/sad

so i'm 21, just married, and raised in my fathers image and thank god he liked sci-fi...a genre i was able to escape to new worlds in.

he even took me to a trekkie covention when i was albout 12 at the greensboro coliseum and it was packed.

we had watched every episode over and over...i thought.

TimeBandit

Sorry yer wife treated you like that just for wanting to see a new episode. Even worse that she threw it in your face all those years. I would have swapped her shampoo for some hair remover cream for being such a bitch.

My younger brother quit the family pretty much when he was 16. That's when he left all the jw crap behind. Boy, I wish I had turned and left with him! Over the years I've seen him on and off. There have been stretches where I haven't seen or heard from him for years at a time. The last time I saw him face to face was in 1999.

So about a year ago he sought me out on facebook and we connected again. Previously he had told me one of the last times I talked to him on the phone that I'd have to be happy re-living my memories of him because I'd probably never hear from him again. That made me sad. I was still a jw at the time.

Now, after finding out that I have left the jws, he has become my best friend. We are very close now, and that makes me happy.

I used to be cut to the quick about my parents disowning me and all, but I have gained a lot of family since leaving the jws. Family that previously I never liked, or even really knew. Now me and that family have grown very close, celebrating Birthdays, Christmas, and LIFE together. I have lost a lot leaving the jws, but I've gained so much more...

Watchtower Covers We'd Like To See...

by TimeBandit in

this thread is a repository for anyone to submit a watchtower parody they've created.

feel free to add your take on the watchtower.

i'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

TimeBandit

I totally forgot to credit Chris Fugue for the thread idea. He's a real photoshop guru and has a thread with the same title on another forum. I figured we could get some fresh ideas for wt covers in a different forum. I truly meant to credit him in the first post, but It slipped my mind. Just thought I'd mention that.

How Does Your Family/ Friends Treat You Now That You Are Not A True Believer?

by minimus in

how do you feel about the treatment?.

TimeBandit

@FlyingHighNow : Yep, and I bet the quality of her life and all the fibers of her being would get a zero star rating too.

@flipper : Thanks my friend. I'm sorry your son is getting a raw deal concerning his JW mother. Ya know what, flipper jr has an awesome dad. I've seen pictures of you and your son out camping and it looks like you two get along pretty great. I wish I had a dad like you buddy.

So many of us have it really tough because of shunning. I wish I could give all of you a big bear hug and drink beer together.
