after considering purchasing a handgun for self protection, our family decided that pepper spray would be a safer, effective, solution.. so, i went out and bought some today.. i wonder how many jw's realize that if an elder finds out that you bought pepper spray for self-defense (even against animals!
) that you would be counselled by the elders?.
i remember an elder telling me about this being in a letter to elders.

i'm interested in finding out what everyone is reading these days.. or what books have had an impact on your worldview since leaving the org.. what have you found helpful in re-constructing and broadening the way you think and feel?.
what have you found to be particularly enlightening on 'your journey?'.
thanks in advance,luv to all.tina.
Anyting by Edward Abbey.
as a witness what occupation did/do you hold?.
i was speaking with a friend of mine that is a former witness and we remarked about how many of us have worked in some sort of janitorial work.
I am also a computer programmer, and an aspiring writer and artist.
Is it time to start an ex-JW computer programmer list yet?

Thanks to all!
I have put Atlas Shrugged on my Amazon wish list.
BTW, I would HIGHLY recommend Edward Abbey's Desert Solitaire, it is one of the best books I have ever read.

i have several observation to make:.
(from the link : http://www.un.org/moreinfo/ngolink/brochure.htm).
Regardless of their justifications, this, for them, is a deal with the Devil's own right hand organization.
And, it shows that the WTS is corrupt, from the top on down.

This is truly a smoking gun, a deal with the devil, for JW's.

Has anyone emailed the WTS PR people to request a comment on this?
