  Apostate is a strong word...

  But if the shoe fits......?

  I haven't been to a meeting in three years, but I have attended the memorial each year?

  I didn't have my publishers card forwarded to the new area where we live now so they don't know where I am??

  DO THEY????

  I guess I am beating around the bush?

  1) Not in good standing ...

  2) Don't really believe ...... so am I a A.....???

  When is it really over...................???

  i am a newcomer to this site, and a curious one at that.. i have been dating a guy who was / is to some degree, a jw.

  although he no longer attends meetings, and does not share jw's beliefs, he is active in other ways.

  for example, he is active on this site; he spends a good deal of time referencing his past life as a jw; and, he gets very angry (but not towards me) every time he hears or thinks about the jw's.

  inaweout.....

  Your insight is right on, I think? Otherwise why do all these people hang around this site, well after breaking away.

  I am having a hell of a problem with living in the real world and moving on. I don't know if I ever will?

  Maybe one day I will work it out? I am 57 now and I have struggled with it since the time the ORG said not to read the Franz books. If I have been born and lived in another country that may not have effected me so greatly. I just thought "I am living in America", the freest land in the world and the ORG says I can't read, "what". It started the downward spiral that I find myself in today.

  My trust mechanism is damaged forever?

  Probably many here will never live it down or get over it?

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i decided to start this thread, because so many time we go at each other because of difference of opinion.

  ( myself included ) but yet for me i love this place.

  i love the different opionions, they make me think, i love the freedom of expression, the friendships, and the expriences that make this a special healing place.

  I think I am a little bit betrayed when someone posts thst is not an X-JW. But really I enjoy their input also?

  I am learning a lot and I am getting some s eparation from the ORG!

  THANKS.....

  "did Iraq orchestrate the 911 attacks?"

  by breeze in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  probably no one is going to give conclusive evidence, but it would be interesting to hear what everyone thinks?.

  in a thread yesterday some stated that the first attack on the world trade center was on the anniversary of the fall of iraq?

  that is very interesting?.

  If it were conclusive that Iraq did have something to do with it, we would hear it on the news right? LOL LOL LOL LOL

  al-Qaida demands America convert to Islam

  by Reborn2002 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i found the article interesting and something which may trigger discussion.. why do i get the uneasy feeling something reminscent of 9/11 looms on the horizon?.

  it is inevitable that al-qaida will again attack the united states.

  it is also inevitable that eventually they will be successful in causing death on a massive scale (as this is their intent) much like they did when the world trade center and the pentagon was attacked.

  Perry....

  Interesting information...I looked into Islam after 911 for the first time and they are not mixing well with the rest of the world. The two worlds scenario is exactly what I had uncovered, believers & non-believers.

  If they do one more senseless act like 911, I am sure they will get their war? I am concerned that the "War on Terroism" has slowed? Why not continue the picking away at them?

  I will repeat something I put into another thread, the Moslems as a whole do feel the same about the West. In interview after interview immediatley after 911, I watched them denounce the US and all of the West over and over again? Moslem camps in each country? Look how many countries recently have been attacked by them? France, US, Russia, a number of African countries, just recenly, so they are isolating themselves more everyday. I believe some action must be taken. If they weren't some outspoken with it, maybe it could be ignored but they have been identified as the enemy and everyone seems to be saying that their extreme beliefs are just a few?

  To deal with them they must be isolated somehow from the rest of humanity. Their lack of tolerance to the so-called non-believer is not accepable in any culture today.

  If Iraq had anything to do with it, this next move I guess is the "War on Terroism"? I have seen many pros-cons on this subject. Maybe this issue deserves a post of it's own.... "did Iraq orchestrate the 911 attacks?"

  You guys teach me soooo much neat stuff....in another hundred years or so I will be smart....found this in the Yahoo dictionary: ideologies
  1. The body of ideas reflecting the social needs and aspirations of an individual, group, class, or culture.
  2. A set of doctrines or beliefs that form the basis of a political, economic, or other system.

  Maybe the "WAR ON TERROISM" was caused by this but the war itself is not.....comments please ???
