we talked about the reasons we both left the borg, it was really great to talk to someone face to face about everything.
the best thing is she only lives 10 minutes away from me, how great is that.. she moved to melbourne about 12 months ago.

If I planned an Apostafest, would anybody come?
by Junction-Guy ini got to talking this over with my wife and she said "why dont you plan an apostafest here", to which i replied "there arent many xjw's in this state and dallas was so appropriate a location due to all the local people that attended" anyway i got to thinking we could plan a 3 day apostafest here in east tennessee, and for those that would like we could make it a camping event with all the campgrounds in the great smoky mountains im sure we could find one suitable for most people.
besides the national park we also have dollywood and gatlinburg.
for those of you not familiar with my area, the great smoky mountains is the most visited national park with 9 million visitors annually and most of these people staying in pigeon forge or gatlinburg.

Are JW teaching the truth??? Do JW's know the truth???
by JDWEEE ini recently became interested in the jw, when a classmate of mine in college, told me he was a jw, and how it changed his life.
i didnt know much about it, and asked him questions about his faith, and what it meant, and where it came from?
and i was surprised at the answers he gave me, and became very interested, and wanted to learn more.. after asking him questions off, and on, for a period of time, i decided to go to the web, and find out more.

JD, first, welcome to the board!
You are one of the lucky ones as Corvin said. When I was in the same situation as you are, I didn't try hard enough to research about the JWs. How stupid of me back then!
There was doubts but I stayed in the organization because I thought they knew the Bible so well. But later found out that many other religious people know the Bible well as well. They just don't know the JW version of Bible. You have to think or question about why they need to have their own version of it. These are the people who said that the true Christians don't go to colleges in early 1990s. Before you get baptized as one of their own, they are going to show you only the good side of them and only the bad side of other religions.
Did you know that you cannot file a law suit against a jw if you are a jw, no matter what?
Did you know that you need 2 eyewitnesses to report a rape or molestation to the elders before you go to any authority? And did you know that if you don't have those 2 eyewitnesses, your case is dismissed, and you might be liable for slander if the accused deny any wrong doing?
There are many other "rules" they didn't tell me or lied to me back then. I had to find out slowly for more than 12 years.
Are you impressed that they seem to be knowledgeable without much education? There are many people like that in the world. For example, consider Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormon. Apparently he had a very very little education, but look how big and powerful his organization is. I didn't know they were that powerful until Elizabeth Smart case.
