i'm not suicidal just fed up.. i did think of suicide (briefly), but as there is no painless way and it's not something i would willingly do just in case things would have been better the day after.
i do have a slight grain of hope.. money problems.....problems at home (that's another matter with a son up court for something he is adamant he didn't do.
first offence but the pigs police and the cps have got charges made.

next week's wt is full of helpful encouragement not to believe satanic propaganda that might tell us that the world is getting to be a better place to live in.. .
well, i stumbled across this article here, that contains lots of so-called 'facts' and 'figures', i'm sure glad i read my wt first so i can recognise that this is nothing but lies, all lies.. .

Space Madness,

Horrible, if the document proves to be true!
It is in full support of serving in the military and avows to have given no instructions to the contrary. And this during the WW II!
Incredible...

it's with regards to disfellowshipping.. is disfellowshipping a legal procedure?
like is there something i can use to prevent this from happening to me if it does happen.. no jokes about me being a bad little boy.
i need honest answers to this.
Jgnat: Comments that usually belittle "learning" among Witnesses - even when the subject does not warrant such references - show a certain degree of preconception and bias. Could some have read a heap of literary works without coming across "Alice in Wonderland"?
In the end, some in the non-JW or ex-JW community do take themselves - or their "education" - too seriously. I know you sought to draw an analogy, but it could still have been done without the allusion to little "learning" among Witnesses.

is anyone here following what is happening with the trial in south africa.
what are your thoughts?
how are the media handling this?
Afrikanman,
Ignorance may be bliss to you, but facts are unassailable. Read up a little about your history, get some enlightenment, it will not hurt. Apartheid was not only white empowerment, it enslaved a whole people and found all sorts of reasons to legalize that enslavement.
As for throwing little grenades from across the Indian Ocean, that is pure hallucination!

Sorry Loubelle, but white privileges do exist in South Africa. You are writing from the perspective of a white person who formed part of a class that benefited from apartheid for decades. Despite the so-called black empowerment, the SA economy is still largely controlled by whites. Denying that obvious truth would not change it in any way.
Yes, I happen to have family in SA and I do know a little bit of what I am talking about.

Assuming he felt threatened by an intruder, could he not have called the police? I simply don't buy any of his arguments. He "seems" distraught because he wants to save his neck (in the sense of not spending a long time in prison; I gather SA does not have the death sentence). It is difficult for me personally to empathize with this individual.

myself and my family have had some odd experiences in our current congregation.
i have'nt been to meetings since september because of this.. 1. the co told the elder who was studying with my husband that he was doing it as an "academic exercise.
" my husband is very intelligent, been in the military, has a degree and a masters and a good job.
You guys and girls just scared her away, finally! Good Lord.

the priest acted as if he was the reason why people were there.
he was about 80 and totally disinterested in the affair although he married the deceased and her husband 15 years earlier.. his sermon's gist was that we need faith to accept that the reason why god has us die is so that we can go to heaven.
and that's it.. the only interesting (touching) time was when the grandkids gave testimonials about their beloved grandma.. oh, and one more thing.
