  The "Pop-In"

  by Mr. Falcon in

  so last night the wife is working, the kids are getting ready for bed and i'm watching futurama.

  doorbell rings.

  now it's dark, snowing and i live on a back road, so it's very odd to have a visitor.

  i have only had one pop in. they wanted to know when i was coming back. i was honest and said never. then i got the line "you KNOW this is the truth". i said i'm not too sure about that one. then i got the "you dont want u and your kids to die at armageddon do u?" I said i dont think we will. any god that would destroy billions of people is not a god i want to worship and if the people in the new world are as loving as the witnesses i have known then i would rather my family die than be stuck with them for eternity.

  i pushed the envelope to be sure but nothing else has come of it. plus i have the added benefit of not caring if something does.

  2 sisters came to the door and since i dont live in the territory they dont know me and i got to say "i'm not interested" for the first time :).

  it felt awesome.

  didnt have a chance to engage in conversation as i was quite busy but it was a nice first for me..

  so i started a reply on the topic of "what's your status?

  " and it made me think about my df hearing (sorry i can't remember the exact term for what happened).. so i was fading, living in a different country, working & making rare appearances at my kingdom hall.

  i was flat sharing with a sister though.

  how in the hell does God care about whether or not it was good???? Sick, twisted, sex-starved men getting their jollies.

  the brother i was dating (and physically involved with) was asked by his commitee to critique certain...ahem...skills i possess. in detail. i was beyond horrified and grossed out.

  and i do realize they are not my sisters. i used the designation to indicate their gender only.

  tater- didnt mean to make it sound like yet another guilt trip. we have all been on way too many. i am glad u r better now :)

  tater- i totally agree that force feeding that stuff is wrong. the guilt and fear is instilled from the beginning and is horrible. the violent images imposed on young ones in the name of the "truth" is sickening.
