  I Did a Stupid Thing Recently

  by 30 years out in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  facebook has been a valuable tool for finding old friends and catching up on years lost making a living and pursuing our own visions of happiness.

  in one of my less inspired moments i decided to look up an old witness friend and roommate from my days in the church.

  he had never impressed me as being particularly strong in the faith so i was truly interested to find out what he had been up to for nearly 30 years and if he was still "in".. i located him through his sister's fb page and sent a message to his account stating who i was and that i would be very interested in hearing from him and catching up.

  2. friends

  he is/was a big man, intelligent affable and charming at times and yet inconstant and scary at other times.. years later in explanation to me he said.... "you know i loved you.".

  i said in reply:.

  "what does that matter if i didn't feel loved?".

  i am finally on board after lurking here for quite some time.

  i have been impressed and depressed by what i have seen here and hope i can add something meaningful.

  a little personal history: i was born the son of the then "congregation servant" and his wife.

  My Trip to the Unitarian Universal Church

  by NewChapter in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so, pretty much i no longer care to believe in a god.

  but, either because of my 20 years in a jw daze, or because humans just desire this, i miss the community.

  so, i went to a unitarian church this morning.

  could your son be gay???

  by searchfothetruth in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  how would you react if doctors come up with a test that could determine if your son would turn out to be gay when he grows up?

  how would you react?

  i personally, having two young sons myself, would not want to know.
