i live in the des moines iowa area , i would be interested in doing a kingdom hall crash after watching some on youtube, i would love to do that with a group of people.
i haven't meet any other ex jw around here.
i was never baptized, i always knew i could never live up to jehovah's standard so i never did even consider baptizing.
I remember when i was a kid an elders wife got disfellowshipped for "apostacy". A few weeks later she walked into the KH shouting about how evil the org was and the us JWs were being mislead.
You know what we all thought at the time? - "What a nut! See, the org is right, apostates ARE bitter and angry".

If one of the GB also is made to stand trial, I wonder if the rest of the GB will hang him out to dry and abandon him??
Of course they would Stuck. They'd make like Tony Morris' pants and split.
ectopic pregnancies, when detected, are usually treated by surgically removing them.
i always understood that this procedure was ok for jehovah's witnesses.
but the subject came up during pioneer school.
My ex-wife had an ectopic pregnancy in the first year of our marriage. She was given methotrexate to "flush out" the embyro.
We never consulted any elder nor researched Watchtower library. It's absolutely absurd to put the mother in danger when the embryo wont develop naturally anyway.
vivian nicholson.
everybody called her “viv.”she worked in a factory as a mother of 4 kids.
she lived in yorkshire.now viv was not yet a jehovah’s witness when what happened...happened.it was after what happened she turned to the cult for solace.what horrible event had ruined her life you ask?viv’s husband had bought a winning lottery ticket and won $5.5 million.in the u.k. they call it playing the “ football pools.”they were the biggest winners in history (at the time) and the year was 1961.the first question winners are asked is: “what will you do with all that cash?”viv’s honest reply later became the title of her book (and a musical!
Is that Brucie on the right in the picture there holding the cheque?
It always surprises me that some people squander so much money on nothing.
well, its that time where i have to go to the boring convention.
so, i wanted to know if anyone had any good ideas on how too pass the time (i cant just try and listen i fall will asleep and i cant let that happen).. (only got a few weeks before i have to go its going too kill me but i got too do it).
.
Damn i remember being in my teens in the boring conventions. I used to invent games on paper with my brother: word searches, crossword puzzles, anagrams. But that's hardly sustainable for 7 freakin' hours for 3 days!!
Take binoculars and check out the hotties (we've all done it).
saw this great video today showing the evolutionary process of humans in 3 minutes.
the fossil record shows that 400 million years ago our ancestors were a type of fish.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsszn4biwzg.
also, check out the below chart.
I genuinely feel like I've missed out on 31 years of education. This is a fascinating subject.
jesus christ, the son of the most high god, jehovah has this to say: "if the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
if you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own.
now because you are no part of the world, but i have chosen you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you.
Some people seem to be so fascinated about members of the governing body. They forget that only one is our leader, Christ. And only one is our God, Jehovah.
Right... and it's the Governing Body that happens to be the ones that tell you what Jehovah is saying.
You know the Catholics dont follow the pope right? They "follow god" the pope is just the middle man.
Your governing body is the same thing.

Also, check out the below chart. Humans are relatively new to the earth. Now THAT is humbling in my opinion.
The smurph myth reached us here in liverpool, UK too. Same story of one getting up and walking out of a KH. I was told that papa smurph was a demon who turned into a tree? Don't even understand that one.

Our heart conditions are reflected in these posts. It's almost as if some were waiting for something like this to be posted. You can see the vulture angrily hovering, looking down to tear the rabbit in pieces.
Didn't your god create vultures to tear up rabbits?
Jehovah knows where I am, if the best he can send me is you then he's more incompetent than i thought.
