Cute and apostate! What a dangerous combination for the likes of you... one who is in his early twenties (right?), has not dated much, and is still a poor jw virgin boy.... Heartbreaking!

NYT,
YOU? Go on a date a little apostate girl? What would the elders say?!
Being raised a jw too, I could really mess up your mind. Talk about corruption!
Manhattan is a bit far from California... darn it!

NYTel, when are you gonna figure it out???? Honey, we've got to be affecting you somehow, all of this evil association with ex cult members....
you begin to respect other peoples opinions more...even that fred guy..... .
you begin to appreciate the world more ... and the variety of it all.
you feel special.
Logi, that's exactly what I thought when I saw that image.... cheer up!
hey guys.
i got an idea as to why there is the same bitterness by many/not all, on this board twards christians like there is to dubs.
you feel you have found it to be a crock just as the borg is and it makes you madder than crap to see people duped a second time.
Kinda funny, after I left the JWs I was shown christianity. I lived it and believed in mainstream christianity for a few years. I used to have this -need- to help other ex-jws who I was so sure were very lost without the "real Jesus", without the way the truth and the life. I would have been on this site doing the same thing these people here were doing.
Not to put down what anyone believes. Because I know that many do these things out of their own concern for others, because they believe they have lifesaving information. Just like we all did as jws.
But I no longer think this way. Like many others here, I was put to the place of researching what I believed, and even researching the ideas that were opposite of mine. And with what I found, perhaps I lost "faith". Because nothing that I learned, could be upheld by facts and truth. And I'm sorry, but I have the power of reasoning, and I wont live my life not using it. My reasoning brought me to the conclusion that I was perhaps being blind, yet again, to facts.
I no longer consider myself a christian. I thrive on the questions in life. The path I have taken so far has been wonderful. Every day brings more questions, and my thoughts and ideas change with every experience that I have. Why do we have to think that we know what a god or creator wants from us? Revealed religions? Revealed holy books? They just dont work for me.
Why does everyone think theirs is the correct version of the truth? Kind of interesting.
I have no point, just rambling.

if someone posted this horrible quote i apologize.
what a sick mindset these people (of whom i'm ashamed i was once one of) have.. quote from wol:.
sunnyday .
I think we just have to remember, that it is not this individual who is "sick". They are just taught this way. I dont think any jw is overjoyed at the destruction that they are seeing. Just remember the fear we all felt as jws. It's a tool that the SICK organization uses to keep jws loyal. So again, its the org that is sick, not the individuals in the org. If i still believed in the jw theology, I'd be scared and loyal as of today also, seeing those images in my mind, imagining the end of the world. I know, it's really sad.
So glad I'm out, especially with the events that are happening.

we have been informed in dayton that gas prices will go up by midnight by 4 dollars a gallon.
i hope this is another false alarm, but i am filling up in either case.
Prices have remained stable in the Bay Area (CA). On Monday, we were at $1.89 a gallon, today we are at the same.
We shall see if it remains....

Does anyone know if this is true?
reports are coming in (bbc) of tracer fire and explosions in kabul, afghanistan.. this is of course wher osama bin laden is holed up - have the fbi/cia managed to successfully pin this atrocity on him already?.
nic'
CNN is reporting that it is not known who is bombing Kabul, or where that video is coming from. They are saying it is not US sponsored. It is very confusing right now.
Crazy.
one thing i have noticed, both in my own reportoire of personal habits and in those of others posting on xjw boards, is the tendency to argue.. i contrast this to a few other boards i've frequented on a variety of topics.
obviously there are disagreements, but xdub boards can get really crazy at times.. there is this tendancy for xjw's to argue like rabid dogs; hell, it's not just the x's who do it, current jw's are just as bad.. this is over and above the normal 'spit on the mat and call the cat a bastard' atmosphere that often prevails on discussion boards (although if you ever want to see a really polite board i suggest you go to a lifestyle bdsmer's board!!)..
are we all psychos?.
Like I said in another post.... *sigh* why cant we all just get along???
Ok, the arguements can be a little fun sometimes. But can also get old quick. I say, no one can change another persons world. We all live in our own little world within our brains, and everyone is different. So I guess it's bound to happen. Live and let live, with a few "discussions" along the way. I guess that makes it kinda fun.
Peace to you all,
Stacey
