JW at work hitting on me!! (for real)
by Free!! inon another thread i mentioned i met some jws at work within the past 2 months.
well, 2 of them became particularly interested and getting to know me (a lady and a guy) the lady is really nice, and the only reason i know she is a jw is because she mentioned something about no b-days or christmas and that was it... she has not tried to preach to me or anything.... .
on the other hand... this young guy, well he is making sure he becomes my friend, asked me to be my fb friend and messages me everyday at work or on fb... now the funny thing is he told me he is a jw and about 3 times already he had suggested i read my bible (whenever i post status about being bored or unable to concentrate on homework), well yesterday he sent me a message that said "i would like to talk to you tonite, maybe we can hit it up" my reaction was .

Sounds like he wants to make you part of his three-fold cord. Just you, him, and Jehovah all having wild scripturally acceptable sexy time together.

New career at 30 - suggestions/ideas?
by i_drank_the_wine ini'm in need of a career change, or at the very least a new job that i can make money at while i continue to work on computer related side-projects.
i'm burnt as hell at computer programming, and being that i am self-taught and have very little corporate experience i am not looking into doing this anymore as it's all i've done as a career for the last 10 years.. long story short, bad money crunch, no degree of any sort, a gamble to try and make my own business failed - so i need to find a new career or job.
searching the papers is somewhat dis-heartening so far.. any ideas, suggestions, or advice for this daunting task of trying to find some way to keep from going bankrupt with a new job.

Thanks for all the great feedback guys! Yes I would love to go back to college but there's no way I'll qualify for financial aid this year, as the first few months were really good. I'm wracked with debt that I'm trying to pay down, but with my business income dropping so bad I'm about a month away from not being able to pay the bills!

Further proof of no real message in OCCUPY
by free2beme ini went by a protest today.
someone was holding a sign to "stop big banks now," basically saying they agree with the government taking control of the banks and what they do.
next to this person, was a person holding a sign that said, "make marijuana legal!

She prayed for me.... and I spent the afternoon puking my guts out
by Scully ini recently did a favour for one of my co-workers by exchanging a shift with her so she could have a day off when she needed it for a family event.. we worked together last night, and she was so excited about the family event that happened a couple of days ago - she really appreciated being able to go.
so this morning, at the end of our shift, she tells me that she is going to church before she goes home to sleep, and she is going to pray for me to have many good things from god for doing this favour for her.. i'm flattered that she thinks it was such a big deal, but i told her "no really, that is not necessary... you really don't have to pray for me!
" she was insistent!!

Mulder would say that this is simply a coincidence, no conspiracy here :-)
Jokes aside, that's a terrible coincidence. Feel better!

If someone is a true apostate, meaning that they have actually left their former set of beliefs in exchange for new ones, then it would be hard for someone to go back IMO. I always liken it to humankind learning that the earth isn't flat - once people learned that the earth is round they couldn't really go back.
People that leave the JW's or get DF'd and never bother to take the time to find a new set of beliefs aren't really apostates though IMO. Yes, they may have left the official rank and file of the JW's, but if they never fill it with anything else. These are the people that I could easily see returning at some point, or at the very least praying to Yahweh from their deathbeds.

I guess all that time studying evolution and natural selection after I left the JW's was wasted :-( Now I have no choice but to believe that the invisible prickish Old Testament invisible Hebrew sky-daddy Yahweh and his pacifist alter ego are out there ruling it for reals.

I Got My Mail At Work Today & I Recieved A Package With White Powder in It!
by minimus ini called the police and they brought the fire department and police to retrieve the post office package.
i found out that in the last month at least 2 other businesses got this type of package.
the white powder was in a plastic that was placed inside a pack of orbit gum.. the contents were taken and were then brought to the town postmaster.. wish me luck!.

Proof of God or Christ without a holy book
by Awen inin some previous posts i have asked certain questions that still haven't been answered.
so without going back to those threads and possibly de-railing them i thought it best to make a new topic.
please bear with me.. i have asked certain ones to prove the existence of god or christ without referencing any biblical writings or characters.
