Here is an important lesson for this special day ....
Four worms were placed into four separate jars. The first
worm was put into a jar of alcohol. The second worm was put
into a jar of cigarette smoke. The third worm was put into a
jar of sperm. The fourth worm was put into a jar of soil.
After one day:
The first worm, in alcohol---dead.
Second worm, in cigarette smoke---dead.
Third worm, in sperm---dead.
Fourth worm, in soil---alive.
Lesson:
As long as you drink, smoke and have sex, you won't get
worms.
i would like to ask ew-jws jw a question.
when you read the book crisis of conscience how instrumental was that book in getting you to leave the organisation.. i have a gf who is an active jw.... i by the way am wordly.
this religion thing is putting strain on our relationship.. she condems me for obtaining information about the watchtower from apostates or just about anyone who has something yo say about the org.
Just leave the book out where she can see it. Don't mention anything about it. Make sure she is alone in the room with it for a bit. Her curiosity will get the best of her if she thinks no one is looking.

PS. It had a big impact on me. It reallly helped my son decide to leave the borg.
the big headlines in the phoenix paper are about the priests in tucson.
"church hid abuse, victims say".
it was covered over and the priests were moved around and promoted.
The big headlines in the Phoenix paper are about the priests in Tucson. "Church hid abuse, victims say". It was covered over and the priests were moved around and promoted. Now the Diocese settled the suit for $15 Mil. Now my question is, I sent them the press releases from Silentlambs and nothing was printed about that. Why not? They like printing that kind of stuff about the Catholic church and the Mormons here. Why are they ignoring the scandal about the JWs? None of the other newspapers I sent it to printed it either. Do they all employ JWs or something? Maybe I should send it to the "Enquirer". They will print anything.

i used to love the comments archie bunker made about the bible.
i remember when he was talking about adam and eve and how it was all her fault that they ate the apple and then god got mad and told them to "get their clothes on and get the hell out of there.
" and then there was samson who "found a jawbone in the grass and went and slew the philippines.".

What ones do you remember?

PS: Saw a plaque once that said "The jawbone of an ass is still a dangerous weapon." How true.

Well, thanks to my genealogy efforts, you can now respond in an
intellectual way.
Jack Schitt is the only son of Awe Schitt. Awe Schitt, the
fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt,
Inc.They had one son, Jack.
In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt. The deeply religious couple
produced six children: Holie Schitt, Giva Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Bull
Schitt, and the twins Deap Schitt and Dip Schitt.
Against her parents' objections, Deap Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a
high
school dropout.
After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt
later married Ted Sherlock, and, because her kids were living with
them,
she wanted to keep her previous name. She was then known as Noe Schitt
Sherlock.
Meanwhile, Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt, and they produced a
son with a rather nervous disposition named Chicken Schitt.
Two of the other six children, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, were
inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens
brothers in a dual ceremony.
The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the
Schitt-Happens Nuptials. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd,
and Hoarse.
Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He
recently returned from Italy with his new Italian bride, PisaSchitt.
Now when someone says, "You don't know Jack Schitt, " you can correct
them.
Sincerely,
Crock O. Schitt
i had a letter today from the idiot jw "friend" back in wisconsin who was spreading all the gossip about us and she said something that is so stupid, but yet so jwish.
she said that "even if it were to turn out that everything the society has taught is wrong and armageddon never comes, the organization is still the best place to be.
" people with that mindset never will wake up.
I had a letter today from the idiot JW "friend" back in Wisconsin who was spreading all the gossip about us and she said something that is so stupid, but yet so JWish. She said that "Even if it were to turn out that everything the Society has taught is wrong and Armageddon never comes, the Organization is still the best place to be." People with that mindset never will wake up. My daughter-in-law said it is because some people NEED to be led. They don't want to think and make decisions. They don't want to be responsible. No doubt if they had been told to kill themselves to follow a comet, a good many of them would have.
I have cut the last ties to people in the Borg and my son and his family have finally come to the conclusion that they have to do that also. It is the only way to move on. Because they were still "friends" with some, they were not comfortable doing birthdays or holidays. They were not living their lives the way they wanted. He couldn't tell any of them that he takes Kung Fu and loves it and is doing extrememly well at it. They finally had their fill. "The End" has come. It feels damn good!

you could be earning money from your hobby, from the very thing that you enjoy as a past time in life.
you may not be aware how to do so, but others here can assist you in showing ways forwards.
what have you got to lose by stating your hobby / interest here?.
I do machine embroidery. I sell a lot of embroidered baby products on my daughter-in-law's web site. .www.babyminestore.com and I also do golf towels with pictures and then the name. In the Phoenix area here I can get in on tournaments at any one of the 300 golf courses here.

i recently admitted to a jw back in wisconsin that we no longer go to meetings.
i told her that we have not disassociated but we do not think of ourselves as jws anymore.
i had been close friends with this person since 1974. .
Well, this is an update. They had the two day assembly in Janesville, Wisconsin. They have a big fancy expensive assembly hall there. Well, it seems that my family was the subject of gossip the whole weekend, only now it had progressed to us being apostate Satan Worshippers. My son was so mad that he called the sister back there who started it all and he ripped her a new asshole. She often referred to herself as my daughter-in-laws second Mom. She shuns her own daughter, who is disfellowship based on her mother and fathers testomony to the elders about what they "heard". They didn't see anything. My son told her that she wrecked her own family and now she was messing with his. He really ripped on her. Her response was, get this, she was only telling people so they could "encourage us". She told people in other congregations who have no contact with us so that was an outright lie. Well he ended it by telling her that they never want to hear from her again. He said she had betrayed them.
I have never seen non JWs do backstabbing like the JWs. They relish it. When they hear something bad about someone, it is like and animal with the scent of blood. Nothing will stop them. It does not matter if it is family or best friend. Yep, real Christian Love there alright. Really makes you want to believe it is the Truth.
