  hello, i am new to this board in a way.

  i have been reading messages for about a month now and just got the nerve up to register an account so i can give my "two cents" once in a while.

  i was raised a jw, but just recently expressed openly that i do not have plans on associating with them any longer.. anyways, not going to type my story out right now, as i do not know if any one wants to hear it.

  WERE YOU AFRAID OF THE ELDERS?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  lately, i see a trend going on regarding how congregation members view the elders.

  more and more, i hear people say "i wouldn't tell anything to the elders if they questioned me.years ago all an elder had to say is "we want to talk with you" and a meeting commenced.

  now, there is a view that the elders can't tell me what to do anymore.

  greetings cliff......it's been over 26 years since we lived next door to you on hall.i'm just wondering how your doing now days?still a watchtower follower?

  (witness)today i'm an ordained minister and i follow after christ.never really liked the idea of following a man made org.. remember when we last talked?about 1987 or 1988?you moved,i believe, over to cyn crest area?remember when you told me how many people left because they were disfellowshipped or walked away from jehovah?well they really left the watchtower and not jehovah god.how do i know?simple,watchtower lies to all of their members in order to control them.. just one more thought.......luke 24:39,tells us that christ came back not as a spirit,but as he left to die.it's called resurrection.if christ came back in any other form he would have been reincarnation.. check it out........with christ......

  Sent my DA letters out

  by Cicatrix in

  finally got up the nerve to send my da letters out yesterday.i sent them in lovely scarlet envelopes(in homage to nathaniel hawthorne's "the scarlet letter")with american flag stamps hehe.i wrote the letters on my hound dog stationary.thought it was fitting, having heard the old "dog returning to its vomit" speech a few gazillion times(hey, my lab and dal eat lots of vomit and they love horse manure-vet says they're the healthiest doggies around:)).. then i went out and bought a little christmas tree and some teeny tiny ornaments.yeah, i know, i'm rushing it a bit.but i really really missed celebrating christmas, and i didn't even admit that to myself until just recently.my kids were absolutely thrilled!

  !this year will be their first everything.i'm going to buy them all "my first christmas" ornaments.. but first we have halloween and a few birthdays to do.my sons already got their first invitations to a birthday party.

  my kids want me to go trick-or-treating with them.maybe i'll dress up as cruella deville and take my dalmatian puppy,sidhe, with me.. my,my, i'm running on and on like a kid at christmas...and halloween...and ..... it's good to be free.i don't care what the org boogeymen try now.i've said my piece to them,now i'm done with them.i don't have to sneak around and worry about whose seeing me do this or that.i'm the one who has chosen to leave-and you bet your boots i will hold certain ones to their own rules about not speaking to me lol.in this case, what comes around, goes around.i'm just glad to be off the org carousel.i'm a little dizzy yet, but still standing.. hehe-i'm getting punchy.i'm going to go to bed and sleep in on a sunday morning!!!

  (((((((Biggs)))))& all the support group.

  Dont DA yourself....Just ride!! If you dont go to meetings,Still tell wifey how much you love her,

  Dont knock "MOTHER" they will leave you alone- but if you do go to meetings you will be marked.

  They will look for every excuse to DF you.

  Two of my kids just drifted.They still spoke to them in the Street-

  But what ever you do dont knock Mother( THE BORG)Else your wife will leave.

  Leave that to those of us -like me- who dont give a damn what they say or do....

  They have a lot to answer for .I wish I had a list of all those who killed themselves because of the Borg.

  Coming Out; A Question.

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  i'm intrigued to see that prisca has decided to "come out" and posted her real pic, (even her car has turned up in a post by stephanaus).

  termite has said "sod 'em all" with the result that her titian locks are visible in umpteen posts, and li'l toe put up his pic right from day one.. my question (to everyone) is this: do you feel that revealing your real identity on this site is an essential part of your departure from the religion of jehovah's witnesses, or do you feel that it doesn't make any difference to your personal growth whether or not you ever reveal who you really are?.

  Affection

  by restorebeauty in

  2. friends

  i have dated a non-active (from birth) jw off and on for the past 3 years and i have noticed that he is not very affectionate at all.

  i'm wondering was it part of the upbringing?

  could it be that since the relationships were shallow this never was an issue.. has anyone else experienced this.. very curious

  restore beauty ! My advice to you is run dont walk to another man. They are devoid of emotion if a true Jehovahs Witness.

  Sex is an absolute No! No before marriage. So even if he feels like it- It is evil for him to entertain the thought.....

  I have to say( sorry exJWS) I think when we leave the "lie" ( truth to them) none of us are unscathed mentally.

  You may not want my advice but as an old woman I am giving it to you- take it or leave it- But I warn you- Your in for a let down if you get "hooked" up with this robot
