i'm wondering if you still attend meetings?
do you hold out hope for the watchtower organization?
if you've left entirely, have you found another form of worship?
Sass,

2 of them maintain no contact, one because i'm an evil apostate, the other is two faced about it(nice on the phone 2x a year, but does not let anyone know about the contact) the 3rd is pretty cool about it, we e-mail alot and i call monthly( all live 1200 miles away).

Hi struggle,
I haven't seen any posts from you since 01/01/01. are you still out there? Been thinking about your situation alot and also didn't want to see this thread get "buried".
Let us know how you've been.

went to an interesting site the other day concerning 1914 and the wtbts.
it seems well researched and true.
hope you'll visit it and comment here.. http://home.online.no/~jansh/wteng/chron.html.

found this on h2o:.
1/3/01 it was announced at morning worship today that brother karl klein, a member of the governing body, has passed away.
he was 95 years old.
Feel so stupid asking this. Is Fred Franz still living. Wondering?

i have read a number of post here and the pain and suffering that wt has inflicted on so many folks is truly sad.
awhile back a poster made the following comments about wt abuses and i wanted to share them with you for they are so true and so sad.
enjoy.
JT,
I totally agree with you. Right now as we speak I know a girl who will be sixteen in February. I have the dubious honor of having brought her "family into the truth". Not proud. She is on the net and very disgusted with the hypocrisy. One of the first things she asked me "What is all this about 1975" Just wait till she reads the rest of it. She says "When I turn eighteen, I'm outta' here". Unfortunately she is baptized.

hey all, hope you're having a great year so far.. before witnet was closed down, there was an interesting discussion regarding the fds and their failed prophecies.
i asked a question, but unfortunately there wasn't enought time to get everyone's view.. so i'll rephrase my posts, and wait to hear from y'all.. if we are so quick to say that the fds is a false prophet because of some failed prophecies (even tho they say they don't prophecy, we all know better) then how would you explain the bible book of jonah?.
a faithful prophet, jonah, followed (after much trial and tribulation to himself) jehovah's command to declare destruction on the city of nineveh.
Larc,
That was my old thinking. I don't think there is a F&DS class either. Don't think God would work that way. Just mentioning how I used to feel.
And if there is one it certainly isn't found in the GB or annoited class such as the WTBTS teaches.
