Also I follow a protestant am station while in my work van driving from job to job. Most talk of an earthly promise.I think most people would be surprised at what is being taught. I find it very encouraging and helped me not to loose faith.

Man's Indefinite Domain
by Maze inthe purpose is that you may walk in the way of good people and that the paths of the righteous ones you may keep.
for the upright are the ones that will reside in the earth, and the blameless are the ones that will be left over in it.
as regards the wicked, they will be cut off from the very earth; and as for the treacherous, they will be torn away from it.

Welcome I disagree with most of jw doctrine as well the above mentioned lack of love. I used to be a jw but having done research I see a lot of good and love coming from many main stream protestant faiths. And you'd be surprised that at the things taught not as cut and dry as has been made up to be.

Any of you folks from the awesome state of Colorado??
by SweetBabyCheezits inmy wife and i are thinking of moving our family to a better place in the us....away from jw family and out of the southern bible belt.
just curious how many of you live around co and, more specifically, near fort collins?
of course, we're open to any city that is less conservative and has awesome summer weather and outdoor activities.

Hello from NW USA
by Haulin Oats inhey there, gang.. i'm haulin oats.
i came to full awareness recently after finding a work-mate who also had "seen the light" finally.. i was born/raised a jw, having made some pretty big sacrifices in the name of the organization, even moving to where the need was greater before the start of high school.
needless to say, small mid-west farm towns don't look too highly on jw's.

Jehovahs Witness Suicides
by sister x inim noticing that alot of witnesses commit suicide.
one sister i knew a few yrs back, in her early 40's, was having marriage problems in the hall for yrs and everyone knew it.
they only told her to rely on jehovah and asked the elders for guidance.

"So I broke the kid's arm, it was his fault really"
by sabastious inevery now and then growing up a woman with the first name of guadalupe would come into my life.
this is a story of one of those times.. she was always refered to as a "friend of grandma's.
" that was why we were supposed to overlook the crazy things she did or at least i guessed that was the way it worked.
