years ago i had a friend tell me that he hated sushi.

he said that it tasted terrible, and it made him sick.

he then went into, how eating something that is raw is terrible for you and is a risk to your health.

Isnt sushi great! I love spider and yellow tail tuna rolls.

first off, i want to give prop's to "dantheman"......that post inspired me to share my experience, and thanks to everyone that responded to my first post under "desperately seeking"....that was a nice welcome.

this might ramble ..... i was born and bred into the borg....my dad was/is an elder, i had a big family, two older sisters, three younger bro's....i was baptized at 15 (i'm 25 now) and tried to pioneer...give talks...have repsonsibilities...but the wrong feeling that had been welling up in my stomach and kept getting stronger as time went on.. when i moved away from my hometown at 17, my life really started to change.....i met an awesome girl (another jw)....and we fell in love pretty quickly...and i also left home and got my own apt.

(much to my fathers sadness).

UN & Df'ing

by Tashawaa in

i'm curious... does anyone know of situations where jw inquiring into the un have been df'd?

i did all the research and got info from the original sources (so when i show my family there's no doubt).

i wrote the society once, then got the "usual" reply (2 weeks later) - wrote again, this time pointing out specifics and wanting answers, but instead i got df'd (hmmm, 3 weeks later) for living with my sister (who was disassociated for some time, and was no big secret here in my congregation).
