waiting, You expressed some good food for thought
there, especially the part about being cut off. That is the absolute worst thing a parent
can do IMO. Personally, I have reached the limit as far as how much hurt I'm willing to take to keep the lines of communication open-no more. If this religion is more important to them then their own child, let "it" be a comfort to them in their old age. For my own health and well-being I'm moving on.

18Irony of "Rebellious" Youth
by Pathofthorns ini've found it quite interesting talking to several young ones who lead double lives.
the sad thing is, i don't find these ones so wicked.
i find them basically good kids who got a little messed up because no one had any time for them, or attempts to relate were rather lame.. the irony is that while talking to one while he was smoking a cigarette, out of nowhere he says, "but i still believe its the truth".

What is the WT afraid of???????????????????
by Zep inok, since it was so easy to get on here i'm assuming that this place is also over run by wts critics...but anyway!.
i've read a plenty of wt mags and got sucked in enough by the whole thing to go to a few meetings and do a bible study( which i wouldn't really call a study, since we just read one of their books).i soon broke of the whole thing and didn't even read another mag for about 6 years...6 months ago i wandered into h20 out of curiosity and ended up reading up on the arguments against the wts.. i have a simple question, and its probably very naive to ask this...but why is wts so afraid of debate?...there are plenty of sites arguing against the wts...but none for, apart the official site which doesn't address the issues raised by so called "apostates" anyway.. if the wt has the the truth why dont they just refute the the arguments against them instead of shutting up shop and labelling anyone who questions them an "apostate?
" or from satan or something.. i'm really beginning to think that all this wt business is just waste of time, that if i were to go to kh and ask questions that i have, i'm more likely to be labelled a trouble making agent of satan rather than be taken at face value as someone with serious questions.

To Beverly Thrillbilly, Welcome to the board. Your
screen name reminds me of a song I made up when I was young,sung to the tune of the classic TV show The Beverly Hillybillys:
Come and listen to the story
'bout a dub named Jed
A poor pioneer-barely kept his
family fed
*
Then one day he was readin'
spiritual food
when his brain went dead
there was nothin'he could do
*
But-field service-that is
car hoppin'
door-to-doorThat's all of it I can remember. My brother would put his hand over my mouth so our Mom and Dad wouldn't hear. LOL

waiting, Some of my favorite games for the PC are Scrabble, Hoyle Card games and Tetris. I used to play Scrabble & cribbage online and was spending 2 to 3 hrs a night. I had to finally knock it off but I really miss it.
Great Quote!!

RedhorseWoman-I had the most wonderful time riding
today even if it was in the 90's and the humidity the same. I only fell off once, lol, in the water no less. Where I made my first error was in telling the guide I had rode before(the Merry-go-round). I insisted on a red horse. They matched me up with an Appaloosa-red/white/red spots. She was a beautiful beast. The ride took 2hrs. and we went through a small canyon, over a waterfall, followed an old deer trail deep into the woods and came to a lake(where I fell in). We came to a large open meadow and followed a trail to the top of the mountain and back to the stable.
I have to tell you I really loved it, but I'm in need of a good massage and a soak in a hot bath. The horses loved the carrots and apples. I would have never tried riding if not for reading your posts about how much fun it is. Thanks. I'm going to enjoy this for a long time.

I was in OZ four years ago. What a paradise! The beaches are awesome and so were the people. I got the "best tan" of my life.
