hi folks.
that's right, the new june 15th 2013 study edition is out now on this link.... http://download.jw.org/files/media_magazines/28/w_e_20130615.pdf.
the following quote caught my eye, from the final study article on page 28.... .
Because they can't find any other experience to use where JWs are really shunning their family. Everyone I know uses the "family business" loophole anytime it's convenient for them. Including elders.
Not so! My mother and brother haven't checked up on me in nearly 9 years. Of course, I'm worse than a disfellowshipped person - I DA'd myself.
i have been out of the "truth" for about 13 years, but 9 of those years i was someone who was out but thinking i would probably go back at some point...out but not all the way out mentally.
my family are still active members and i am a little bit shunned, not invited to family get togethers, that sort of thing.
i was one of those people that left and then did drugs and partied for a while.
Welcome Iriddle!
this is the famous quote spanish jw parents quote their children before some serious spanking!.
proverbs 29:15 (asv)15 the rod and reproof give wisdom; but a child left to himself causeth shame to his mother.. .
let me share the secret behind latin jw's parenting techniques.... .
Totally took me by surprise! LOL!
i have been out of commission for several weeks.
back around the first of the year i developed an infection in my left foot.
due to diabetes and poor circulation the doctors were unable to save my foot and so i received a below the knee amputation.
Best wishes for improved health!

This is why I always lock my door immediately after closing it. That a-hole has some nerve. Be sure you lock your door at home!

judge orders archdiocese to restore names in abuse filesthe public's right to know how the church handled molestation allegations outweighs officials' privacy rights, court rules.q: haven't several states extended the statutes of limitation in response to the abuse scandal?.
Well, when Jim Jones and his cult fled to Jonestown when he was exposed for abusing his followers. Less than a year and a half later the Kool-Aid came out.
i came across an article in the feb 1, 1955 watchtower (questions from readers) which discusses 1976 as being 6,000 years since the creation of adam.
the question being addressed was -.
what are the reasons for changing the date of adams creation first from 4028 b.c.
Well, 1976 was quite a year here in the U.S. It was the nation's bicentennial and the merchandizing element went nuckin' futs. We had bicentennial-themed everything right down to garbage bags and toilet paper.
