I think the entire video was terrific. He is very well spoken and I can tell that he has spent a lot of time doing his research. Yeah, the bunker thing was funny, but I enjoyed his thoughtful and kind presentation more.

Hey barbie, I'm from the south. Lived all over it. My southern accent is almost gone, but not completely...People still comment on it though so I guess it's still audible. I notice though that when I get emotional my accent gets really pronounced. Also, If I happen to be talking to someone else with a good southern accent then mine sort of wakes up and before I know it I sound like they do. Does that happen to you?

Cool ideas sparky. I made these a few years ago and then life kept me from doing anything further. I hope to get back into it sometime soon.

Can you relate?
by TimeBandit ini used to try really hard to fit in when i was an active, true blue jw.
somehow it hardly ever paid off.
time after time i attempted to mingle and make jw friends.

For a while I thought I was treated that way because I had a sign on my back that said kick me.

Keeping your sanity while stuck as an active JW
by oldskool ini pass along this advice as a new topic, to get it past one off comments that may not get as much attention.. i exited the jehovah's witnesses about a decade ago.
like many, my personal situation felt to restrained to act on my impulse and get out quickly.
i took about a year and a half to two years to leave via da.. i empathize with anybody leaving the watchtower who finds it difficult to falsify dedication, interest, and belief in both their personal and public life.

Ding "What did you do about going out in service when you knew you didn't believe it anymore?"
I made sure I had a remote rural territory, said I had my own arrangements so I could be alone.Then I' stop by the house and smoke a doobie before heading on out with my picnic lunch and go sight seeing.

slimboyfat joins the Mormons!
by slimboyfat ini know that some people on the board have experience of being mormons, so i would be interested in your feedback.
at church this afternoon it was an uncanny experience.
in the past i've read a lot about mormons, so i thought i was prepared in general for what it would be like.

Mormons scare me a little...I think it's the idea of religious people running around in powerful and mystical undergarments. Power like that is a BIG responsibility and ought be well regulated by the government...Like with background checks and such.

Gum power chewers chewing powerfully at meetings
by TimeBandit inever been at a meeting and had a power gum chewer in attendance?
i mean, you can hear them smacking that gum from across the hall?
one time i saw her loading up.

"TimeBandit That is so funny! Did your mom let you chew gum during the meetings too?"
Actually her power chewing gradually escalated after I was grown up and had gotten married. I suppose she did let us have gum at meetings once and a while.
I think the power chewing might be a subconscious way of dealing with her crappy JW life and her borderline personality.

Sometimes I feel like I Should Believe something...
by freemamaof3 inhas anyone else felt like they should believe something after leaving wt?
i am an agnostic atheist and its so so hard for me to believe in a god or higher power.
it just doesn't make sense.

I think I can see what you mean. I am more agnostic than anything, but there's a little atheist in me too. The thing that makes me wonder sometimes is that I've actually seen stuff with my own eyes that I felt were undeniably spiritual in nature.
I don't really think there is a god, but something made the events I witnessed happen. One thing is for sure in my book, there is more that we don't know about life than we do know. I try to be open minded when my brain allows it...
