  2. scandals

  skeletons in the closet: catholics aren't the only ones with something to hide, is the name of the article in the april 25 issue of seattle weekly (a weekly news magazine).

  it mainly discusses erica rodriguez' case and several mormon lawsuits.

  bill bowen is quoted in the article as saying "our denomination is now where the catholic church was 20 years ago, right on the edge of a crisis.".

  Additon to My Story

  i posted my story here a week or so ago.

  and i left something out that i was shy about sharing, but now i have changed my mind for 2 reasons.

  1) i feel more comfortable here everyday and feel like i can say this 2) i keep reading posts by new people who struggling to adjust and i think this might help.. after i left the witnesses and got df'd i had nowhere to go, i wanted to kill myself because i was so alone and was no one to turn to.

  Continued . . . My husband is stepping down -elder

  by Prisila in

  over a week ago i shared that my husband was stepping down as an elder last wednesday.. well, for all those inquiring minds that want to know, my husband's efforts were a total bust.

  first he talked to one elder who adamantly refused to accept his resignation.

  he encouraged and demanded that he stay.

  hi everyone.while i have lurked on this board for some time this is my very first post.

  the main reason for my reluctance to post has been the fact that my job keeps me pretty busy - however i have enjoyed the board so much i felt i would love to be a more tangible presence and have decided to take the plunge.

  i will give more details of my background later.

  Well, here's my story... Like it or not.

  by staceman in

  2. experiences

  wow... i feel guilty about even being here, let alone posting my story.

  but here goes.... it was back in the late 60's that my dad (actually stepdad who adopted me and my older sister when he married our mother) got witnessed to by a guy that he worked with.

  he was invited to our house for dinner along with his wife and that was the beginning of my new life.

  in a recent topic someone mentioned how much they have drifted from god since they "left the jw's.".

  as someone brought up in the org (inactive for several years)i have found this to be similiar in my case.

  i don't know how much i believe the fan/plug analogy (remember that in the live forever book?
