misbehaving elders treated with understanding.
weve had a few cases of elders being accused of serious stuff around here over the last few years.
if you are a "mere" publisher, not currently occupying a position, dont try fooling around like this.

i was at work tonight and we were joking around and talking about old shows we used to watch while growing up.
i thought it would be fun if we wrote a line from a show and see if we could guess what show it came from.
my name is lenny, and if i ain't got it, there isn't any.

i'm hoping you all can help.. an active jehovah's witness joined us in chat tonight and was dismayed that this site slams witnesses for trying to follow the bible in matters such as disfellowshipping.
this chatter feels that many people here complain about the society's policies without offering evidence that the policies are without scriptural backing.. i must be at work very early monday morning, so i could not stay in chat as long as i wished.
i told the chatter i would start this thread so that s/he could gather information and opinions from several sources.. in chat i was trying to present a point that i remembered from in search of christian freedom, about how disfellowshipping was meant to be a personal choice, not a decision forced on the congregation by a small committee.
You Know, I am so glad that I do not have to answer to you for my sins and instead answer to God. For God forgives in an instant, unlike man. Once I ask forgiveness and mean it, in Gods eyes it is forgotten.
Nuff Said.

hello all.. i really do love to post here.
i love getting responses more than anything.
well, my mom pissed me off today.
My Dearest Katie,
It will not always be like it is now. Saying Happy Birthday is not that important.
You have to look at it this way. You were born into the religion. Being outside is like being in a whole new world. It will take time to be like you say "Normal". Heck, it took me from 92 to 95 to even think like a jw. It was much easier going back to normal seeing I was born "Worldy" Give youself some time. Things will fall into place.
If you want to go back to school. Check into fafsa.(Not sure if thats the correct spelling. Also look into pale grants. You can get money to go back to school. I want to go back myself but with my children in school and me being the only one supporting them and having to work three jobs, isn't easy. I don't know when, but I will go back one day. I want to be an RN. I always liked working in that field. My first job was as an CNA, so I know a bit about nursing from that.
Just take your time and things will fall into place.
BTW, nice pic, can't wait till I post the full view for all here to see. You hottie you.

I can't believe I am going to tell you this............Once when I was at the meeting. I was wearing a long dress as JW women often do. I went to the restroom and when I finished, pulled my panty hose up and didn't realize that I had the back of my dress tucked in also. I did however realize it before getting all the way back to my seat.

[h3]here is the watchtower's official explanations on the un scandal![/h3.
the letter is, naturally - on the watchtower observer as well!.
yachyd da.
They (WTBTS) know just how well they have brainwashed their follows. I bet most if not all believe their story hook line and sinker. It is plain to see that they only reason they resigned is because of all the calls they had regarding this matter. SUCH HYPOCRITES!
"I don't want someone in my life I can live with, I want someone in my life I can't live without."
question to throw out to anyone who cares to answer.. what do jw's believe happens when they die.
jon always told me that when life was over, that was it, no heaven no hell just nothingness.. is that what jw's really believe?
he didn't like to talk about it with me because he thought it would upset me.. thanks for any input,.
teejay, don't let Jan see that. lol

LDH, I could hardly walk the last two months of my pregnancy, much less have sex.
