  radar,

  i also had no choice

  what you want to say about yourself?

  imo, those who joined as adult were persons without bible knowledge at all and/or people with limited social skills.

  A big door opened to them when joined.

  open marriages, anyone have experience?

  by Pierced Angel in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  well, my husband found out about my affair (yes, i gave in to the temptation with the soccer player and while it was fantastic, it's over now) and it's been a devestating time, we almost got divorced, but we're working through it.

  i knew telling friends and this board wasn't going to help me fight his romantic advances, but i tried.

  it was a one time thing that would have continued, but i wasn't too careful about the clues (guilty conscience i think).

  At Which Table Are You Feeding?

  by YoYoMama in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  at which table are you feeding?.

  you cannot be partaking of the table of jehovah and the table of demons.1 corinthians 10:21.. these inspired words of the apostle paul show that two figurative tables are set before mankind.

  each table is identified by the kind of symbolic food placed upon it, and all of us are eating at one or the other.

  Putting the WTS's UN Affiliation In Perspective!!!

  by MadApostate in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  after following jalward's and other's posts over the past week or so regarding how the borganization views the wts's previous un affiliation, i thought it would meaningful to consider how joe average elder in mayberry, usa perceives the congregation's responsibility to not only to keep entirely free of governmental connections, but even how far a local boe would go to avoid even an appearance of such.. thus, i pose the following hypothetical, and invite readers to give their opinion as to how they think mayberry's boe would react to receiving this letter from their local mayor:.

  MA,

  Do you know if the BOE called the WT legal dept to decide what to do?

  'we need no award, WE KNOW we are the best, but what about sending us some kind of a grant $$$'

  A New Guy from Chicago with a Story to Tell

  by Reborn2002 in

  2. experiences

  first of all id like to say hello to everyone on this website, and to thank and acknowledge each and every one of you for your individuality, personal experience, and in some cases, commitment to truth.. having read some of the heartfelt topics and posts here have served to be a great encouragement to me, more than some could imagine.

  my name is jason, and i am a recovering ex-jw.. i guess this would be an ideal time to tell my life story as an abbreviated version, so here goes.. i was "born into, or raised" in the organization.

  my grandfather was an elder for 45 years, and served as one of the very first jw in the south chicagoland suburbs.

  I think he also "tend" to do the opposite. Depending on how he feels at the moment. Also he "tend" not to take his words back when wrong.
