Born in. Loved it so much I was baptized at 13 and fully woke up at 27 and abruptly left. I am responsible for not leaving sooner. I just wanted to believe sooooo bad.

It's a vacation! You can miss a meeting! Come on.
Yeah, I never understood that one. No one is keeping track of the fact that you're attending each and every meeting. What? You think you get brownie points?

What movie did you walk out on when a jw? Have you seen it since? What changed?
by Wasanelder Once inok i walked out on austin powers because i thought it was so crude and god dishonoring.
since the fade i think it is very funny, still not a favorite but not the end of the world either.
any movies that were a big sin are nothing now?

So, my husband would not even meet the elders who just happened to drop by this morning.
by Julia Orwell inhe stayed inside and kept going about his business like they weren't even there.
i engaged them on the verandah hut politely explained that they'd caught us at a bad time as we were doing a big cleanup of the house.
the elders had even bought a pack of chocolate cookies around, so they were expecting to be invited in and offered coffee.

I went heavily buzzed a few times back when I drank. Once it was when they still had book study in the home. During the last prayer I had a silent burp and after my wife said, "Wow, you really smell like alcohol." After the meeting. No one else ever said anything.

professing christians
by unstopableravens inif one claims to be a christain, a follower of jesus, should we not listen to his commands?
he said to love those who are hating and persucuting you, did he not say if some one asked you to go one mile go two?
if someone who is not a believer says something mean or rude ,does that open a door to reviel in return??
