I agree with ESTEE! LOL!
I know I feel a hell of a lot better since I stopped bringing all that literature into the house!

i cannot believe how credulous many jws are regarding the religions near obsession with supernatural beings.
apparently young kids misbehaving is a result of demons.
what irritates me the most is that this woman was more concerned with an alleged person with a "dangerous mind" placing the tract she left back on the car, than the fact that she left two children alone in a parked car.

hey all,.
there is a new msn groups website for xjws that are interested in psychic stuff, like tarot readings, astrology, numerology and the like.
it was created for those who are interested or are actively involved in the field and want to discuss and share experiences without the fear of being verbally bashed.
Every so often the subject comes up here when someone asks about spirits or experiences they have had and they always get a lot of negative feedback and sometimes it is quite upsetting to the poster when they have serious concerns. It will be nice to have a place to discuss this subject with others who have a sincere interest. I will be there for sure.

i remember watching people so well back when i was growing up and going to the meetings.
one thing as i look back on was the ban on the bathroom.. you just did not leave your seat to use the bathroom.
you went before the meeting started, or after.
I remember that Drama, probably because the people in it were from my hall. There were no restrictions on the bathroom at our hall. People were always going. No one thought much of it

after leaving chat last night, i was in bed snuggled next to thunderrider thinking.
one of the group had been doing blurbs of kingdom songs, i don't remember any songs, or any scriptures or hardly any names of the books, i don't remember quotes from the stage or comments made by others.
have any of you ever felt this way?

this is my first time posting here or on any ex-jw forum but i want to know if anybody else is not sure what to believe anymore.
paradise on earth sounds great and it was drilled into me for 11 years, it's just kinda hard to shake.
what about armageddon?
Chris:
Welcome to the board! We have all been in your shoes, some still are. Some of us know what NOT to beleive but we are not sure what we SHOULD beleive, and then some of us have it all figured out. Be patient and do a lot of reading here. This kind of transition takes time. And ask all the questions you want.

That would make a nice little slogan to put on it right above the name. Or there are other slogans that would work well to for the golfer, he could have a matching slogan for the golf towel and the penis warmer. "Golfers have lots of balls" is always a good one.
I remember seeing a picture of a golf bag and some balls and it said"When I die, bury my balls next to the old bag".
Yep, this could be big.
Millie
this is an email received today.
what do you make of it?
a bit dodgy or what!
Yep, I have had that one a couple of times in the last week

i do beleive in some sort of higher power, but am not sure what it is.
i sure don't know what to think about jesus since i do not beleive the bible.
it isn't something i dwell on so i find it very odd that i would dream about jesus.

In this dream there are a group of JWs and a young child, a girl, and the JWs are shunning her. Next I see a very old lady and again the JWs are shunning her. Then I see Jesus in the background watching and he is very angry. He says that shunning is not something her ever approved of and it is not a loving thing to do. He is even angrier that they say they are doing it for him.
I have a lot of unusual dreams but this one really surprised me. I do not have anything to do with any religion anymore and I sure don't think a lot about Jesus.
Then there was the dream about the black sheep eating my hair curlers.........................

I machine embroider golf towels with designs and I personalize them with the man's first name. What do you think about a matching penis warmer? They could be personalized as well. Golf courses can be chilly for those very early morning golfers, you know.

i waited and waited for the dvd to come out for "signs".
i was so looking forward to it.
i had my feet propped up, a bowl of popcorn and bottle of soda.
What made no sense at all to me is when Mel Gibson walked into the house and saw that there was an alien in the pantry and he just goes home and does not report it to anyone. He knows they are out to get people but he just leaves it there. Also, the pantry door opened IN so how was the alien stuck in there. They had no trouble getting through doors in his own house. Stupid. Really stupid.
