  hi everyone, i've just registered and thought i might introduce myself and tell my experience.

  my name's raquel.. i was born into a jw family.

  i started leading a double life around 14y/o and got caught drinking by another sister when i was 15 and saw that as my opportunity to quit the panthomime and stopped going to the meetings.

  Raque said, "... i have been on the bringe of returning (about 6/7 times over the space of 16 years) "

  I wonder if each one of those times you were worried that Armageddon was "SO close" and yet 16 years have gone by, and >nothing<.

  Remember 1914? "Pastor" Russell originally predicted that in that year the Theocracy would be fully in charge of the Paradise Earth. He kept having to change his predictions because, as the Monty Python skit puts it, "SUDDENLY... nothing happened." And "nothing" is going to keep happening with each year the JWs pick.

  Some suggest you read books by other XJWs. I'm going to suggest you DON'T read those books unless you want to. The reason why I say this is because you already know that The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society is a snare and a racket -- what else do you need to know?

  Hi Raquel!

  You said, in part, "... I stumbled across john ceddars videos about a month ago."

  Which proves the old saying that even a jackass can be useful if his nose is pointed in the right direction.

  Eventually you will realize that John Cedars is about as big a self-serving blockhead as a self-serving blockhead can get, but if he has helped you to see "The Truth About 'The Truth'" then he has done a good deed.

  Let me offer you some soothing balm:

  Yes, WETBACK. Embrace it as su hermanas y hermanos do...

  Wetback

  "Wetback is a term used to describe Mexicans who have immigrated illegally to the United States by swimming or wading across the Rio Grande--the river that separates the U.S. from Mexico. U.S. Border Patrol began using the word in 1944 to refer to illegal Mexican immigrants who were easily identifiable by their wet clothing.

  In 1954, the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service made the word "wetback" official by naming the mission to remove illegal immigrants from the United States, Operation Wetback . In response to the increase of immigrants during the early 1950s, the agency developed the program to force immigrants (particularly Mexicans) back to their home countries. Aproximately one million Mexican Americans were deported in one year.

  Today the term "wetback" is often used to express animosity towards Central American or Latin American immigrants--legal and illegal--who do not speak English. Meanwhile, in an attempt to reclaim the word, some Mexican-Americans call themselves Los Mojados, meaning "the wet ones."
  

  Azor gets maximum mileage from minimum facts.

  How many of Los Mojados are self-bigoted and self-loathing? Que lastima!

  simply disgusted with that double standard by our system at times.

  cutting ads that question trumps bigoted wall, yet allowing a cult ad in.

  wtf..

  Azor, who brought up the matter of an uncle who fought in WWII? Was he fighting invaders from Dimension X, or Nazis, like all the other allied combatants did?

  Azor, YOU may be willing to break the law on the excuse that doing so provides a better life for your children, but don't presume that I would.

  It is almost funny the way you avoid using the correct term: we're talking about "illegal aliens," not immigrants. The LEGAL processes for becoming a US Citizen remain in place. Wetbacks who cross the border under cover of darkness or other subterfuge are CRIMINALS, just as they would be if they were US citizens going south into Mexico without complying with Mexico's laws.

  Your "apples and oranges" are wormy in fact and as an analogy.

  Immigrants are people who follow the laws pertaining to immigration.

  Spoletta said, " if I thought there was a way to give my children a better life, or protect their lives by going somewhere else, I wouldn't worry too much about the legality of it."

  Would you feel as generous if a criminal was robbing YOU to "give his children a better life," or does that apply only when SOMEONE ELSE is being robbed?

  You are morally bankrupt.

  Azor, you are inaccurate. I said, "I'm a bigot if I don't support criminals? OK, put me down as bigot."

  So apparently YOU feel that it is BIGOTED to not support criminals. With your admitted family history, I can see why you might feel that way.

  I'm glad your grandmother's son fought to help the Allies win WWII and defeat nazism. Spain and many South American countries were either collaborators with the Nazis or looked the other way when the Nazis sought refuge in those countries after WWII. Were many of your family Nazis?

  Azor pointed out, " In fact the infrastructure needed to build the wall will just give illegals an easier path into the country."

  Then why would you not fully support it? Are you a bigot?
