  JWN is enjoying a renaissance!

  by Mickey mouse in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the past few months we've welcomed a lot of newbies who have contributed a lot to this forum.

  some quality discussions are taking place, the likes of which i haven't seen here for a while.

  in addition, many are taking action to expose the watchtower society for who they really are.

  hi, i was reading on here a while ago that some of you guys and girls suffer from panic attacks.

  how common is this in the jws?

  A question for current/former elders

  by Mickey mouse in

  when you had to deal judicially with cases of apostasy, did it ever pique yout curiousity?

  did anyone ever tell you about something they had learned that shocked you and made you investigate for yourself?.

  I've lurked a long time: JW's produce some of the most paranoid humans

  by Unlearn in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'll keep this brief for now.. long time lurker (4 years or so).. born-in, elder, used on district level (last talk i gave before i left was the baptisimal talk), and lots of hard time put in...before i finally made the move to split.

  it's a long stoy, much like many of yours...but with it's own little interesting twists.

  more details in the future, perhaps.. as i said, ive lurked here for a while.. its funny: for a long time i'd only come on late at night.

  The Civil Rights Struggle: Put it to Rest

  we have been priveliged to have the first black president in the us to serve in the white house.

  with the wrestling of the 50's and 60's, king and the kennedys.

  race riots, vietnam, the drug culture of the seventies, and so on and so forth, isn't it time we all took a deep breath and take into account all that has transpired between where we are and where we've been?
