in the article he uses a fantastic quote from a 1994 awake!

magazine which reads as follows.... .

Do You Ever Look Back? Should We?

by Joe Grundy in

i'm a bit unusual here, never was a jw, don't suffer from the ex- or leaving jw stuff, but i surely can sympathise with those who do.. .

tomorrow ( 2 august) my divorce decree absolute is issued, disolving the marriage with my filipina princess.

i'm not sad about that, per se, it will be good to get the whole sorry episode over and done with.

exs are exs for a reason - I'm not a fan of second chances for failed relationships

just ron got a phone call from the an elder today...they want to "meet" with us.

lol like that's gonna happen, right?

anyway, at least they had the good sense to have brother hasn't pissed us off yet call instead of brother thinks we shouldn't feed our kids or brother beat our kid.

just Ron

Well I prayed about the matter to Jehovah. I asked Jah to have them call me back by 5 pm central time if they really are reps. for the true religion and guess what no phone call. I'm so relieved I made the right desision to leave. So my sign was no sign.

5.1 Eathquake hits near Melbourne Australia last night...is the end near? Or should I just have another beer?

by Witness 007 in

9pm i was sitting in my recliner when i literally felt my ass vibrating....as there was no other reason for this i turned to my wife on the couch and said: "did you feel that...i think it was a tremor..." "yeah i did feel something.".

i guess this is a huge sign that the the end is near or......we live on a planet that has shifting plates and australia is slowly moving north.

jesus said earthquakes, pestilence and wars would increase, but isn't that like saying "the weather will be hot....and freezing cold....then it will get very hot again...." very obvious "signs" from a carpenter in the first century.. alot of witnesses will be going out in field service this morning..

What do apostates really want?

by Mr Facts in

i'm just wondering what the whole apostate propaganda is all about?.

do you think you can do some sort of justice to the wt for the pains they have caused you?, what actualy are your motives?.

i dont get it.

Who or what are you most angry at, when it comes to your situation in relation to JW Org?

i've been receiving very bitter messages from jws i know, mostly my mother, but also others that know how to contact me electronically.

sometimes i find myself mad at her, though not displaying it.

but i know it's really not her or my fathers fault.

just Ron

Myself for not making more of a stand over the issues and letting them take 12 years of my life.
