Flipper, you raised two really good girls. You have the right idea, just keep trying with love, they know your out there.Keep telling them how much you love them. Never lose hope..............I would tell my daughter.....What ever you do, don't do any research on the internet..she would.. lol but that's just MY daughter.....she takes after me....inquiring minds what to know.....just have to look behind the curtain.........lol Maybe when she's a little older, and wiser, she will start to do her own thinking . I hope so, and beleive she will....a good chance one of them will .

Andres' Example In the March 1,2010 Watchtower
by EmptyInside inwell, i never really paid attention before,until it was brought to my attention here on jwn,but andre sure has a lot going on in his life.. i happened to see in the march 1,2010 watchtower on page 21, the box on remarriage,the article is about the death of a marriage mate,andres,was against his father remarrying.
but,then, he realized marriage cheered his father up again.. i think finding andre is a new fun game and makes it even worth glancing through the magazines again.
lol.

What's up with the rings on the right hand?
by drewcoul ini noticed two of these guys (losch, and the one to h is left) both have rings on their right hand ring finger.
i have known several co's and do's to wear rings on their right hand.....david biegler i think wore one.
i don't find many r&f male jw's or average "worldly" men wearing rings on their right hand.

DO WE NEED TO BELONG TO A RELIGION TO BE A "SPIRITUAL PERSON"?
by foodalls ini have been noticing people posting on this site have a "deep" spiritual desire, but don't quite know how to find it, or where it is at.. this beg the question...do we need to be involved with a "religion" to find "spirituality"...especially an "organized religion"???.
anyone that has there eyes open can see that all religion is loosing their influence over people around the world...i spent 47 years thinking i was in the "truth" being one of jw's!
and now that i am out...and looking back from the "outside"...all i see is that its just another religion...filled with all the "control-grid" stuff found in any other group.. worse yet...they are worse than other religions...so it begs an answer..is there such thing as a "true religion"???.

I asked my best friend how the GB makes its decsions last night...
by dontplaceliterature inmy best friend does not know about my recent mental defection from the watchtower, but i am having trouble keeping my feelings from him completely....so, last night, i asked my him if he thought the governing body was always in 100% agreement about every policy/doctrine decision they make.
" i asked him how he thought they went about making those decisions and he said that, "they probably discuss it as a group, research it, read the bible together, and discuss it some more until they come to a conclusion...just like a boe would when deciding a judicial matter.
" i said: "don't you think that if they were jehovah's 'mouth-piece' and they are indeed being guided by jesus christ and holy spirit, that there would be no doubt about what the right course of action is?

countrys. or the millions of other vaccinations the witnesses take every year....take...take...take....that's alot of sinning.............
