First year with baby!

by Darkknight757 in

i wanted to share a few recent pics of izabella with everyone.

this week marks her one year since her coming home from nicu.

she has been growing and changing so much these last few months in particular.

What would you do or say?

by Butyoucanneverleave in

a brother who is not baptized ( so there's still hope for him ) had a sister recently run into him at a store.

show wanted to know if he's going to the kingdom hall.

she asked him to write a letter for her to give to his mother ( who's deceased) in the paradise explaining why he didn't make it.

I would have said I'd rather be dead than live in a spiritual North Korea with a bunch of smug, self righteous assholes.

What immodest clothing have you got in trouble for wearing?

by Addison0998 in

i personally have a very distinct sense of style and fashion which many of the fellow jdubs frown upon.

recently, i was told by a few specially self righteous ones that i looked like a prostitute in a pair of white boots!

a pair of 3 inch heeled, just a little taller than the ankle boots, with skirt that came down to my knees and a black long sleeve shirt that came up to my collarbone.

I was counseled for looking "too old" for my age. I was 14, the brothers said I looked 18 to 20 years old. They talked to my dad, an elder. He said that he knew that I was well groomed, bathed frequently, used lotions, etc. They told him that maybe I shouldn't do that. The real problem was that I turned them on and they couldn't do anything about it. What a bunch of self righteous assholes!

What I wish I had known at 18

the financial times had an article with the above question.

the author asked various people to answer the question.. https://www.ft.com/content/169705e4-b4dd-11e8-b3ef-799c8613f4a1.

while i was not interviewed, if i was asked this question i would say that i wish i had known in 1975, when i was 18, that i was raised in a cult and that the continued focus on armageddon over my lifetime was a cruel joke.

If I knew at 18 what I know now, I would have joined the armed forces on my birthday, served my time, and gone to college on th GI bill to become a teacher. If I had done this, I would already be retired, with a nice pension. But, still have to work a few more years.

J.W.`s and Paradise and the Reality of it.

by smiddy3 in

when god created adam and eve and put them in the garden of eden it was then up to them to cultivate and take care of it ,god had no further hand in it .the responsibility rested with adam/eve and their offspring.. the same would be true in the paradise to come ,god gets rid of all of us wicked people ,but then it is up to j.w.~s who are left on this earth to restore such a paradise.?

without god`s intervention.. think of it , this system is gone with all its infrastructure.. 8 million + j.w.`s scattered throughout the earth with.

no communication systems operating .

Didn't someone say that in the new system, we no longer would have genitals? So, if everyone is naked, so what? Lol

i think trump will be the nominee for the republicans and the democrats... i have no clue.

i hope bernie sanders runs again and wonder if hillary would dare go for a rematch..

Biahi

Simon, I want to thank you so much for your work on keeping this forum going, we all appreciate it very much. However, as I understand it, you live in Canada? You have national health care, and now legal marijuana. I think voting democratic is the way to get those 2 things here in the good old USA.

a few years back i was in a meeting between fades and it was the co visit.

i don't remember the talk but he asked this question.. what if this isn't the truth?

Respectful observer, spot on!

What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?

by ILoveTTATT2 in

i had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.

i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.

however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

Biahi

I did the same exact thing as On The Way Out. Thank you, Randy Watters !
