also, i know there are so many informative books out there written by exjws, i although have not read any yet, as i just started my research, although i have a book given to me by a friend of mine, that i started reading yesterday, and i couldn't hardly put it down!!!

it's "jehovah's witnesses, watch out for the watchtower" -- written by an exjw gordon e. duggar.

i think it was published in mid 1980's, a very informative book!

i'm pretty sure i'm right about this.

i haven't been in the org for a long time, but it seems that whenever someone sneezes, you are not supposed to say "bless you" ///// why is this so??

i personaly don't see anything wrong w/saying bless you !

Salvia Divinorum Anyone?

has anyone else tried salvia?

i recently tried this herb, which is a member of the sage family, via smoking it.

i must say that it is a psychedellic not for the faint of heart or one who fears the loss of control for several minutes at a time.

i haven't posted in a while... been very busy lately.

not many of you know my story.... but for a quick run down... i'm a disf'd jw, for about 11 yrs now, i'm 28, disf'd at the tender age of 17... my mother and sister are still in the org... they only talk to me when they want to, it doesn't have to be an important event, life or death or anything.

I NEED SCANDLE INFO !! ~~
by curiouschristy in
1. jw
2. friends
ok, everyone knows i'm new here, thank you all for being so nice to me!.

i keep reading how alot of you in here talk about scandles, and how the gb is a bunch of crap, yada yada.... well, i really need to know what exactly you guys are talking about.. is there anyone that can fill me in on this, maybe give me sites to look at, or email me info that will satisfy me on this subject?.

i feel like if i get all the info i need on things like this and others, it will help me get over my " guilt" feelings, and such, so i can knock out that asshole in the back of my mind that keeps telling me i'm in the wrong here!!
