not sure if this is the right forum, if not i apologize.. last night was our first halloween.
i have to admit, the very idea that somehow it is satanic and that it makes bible god cry seemed immensely foolish as we prepared for it.
my daughter was dressed as an undead witch and my son was dressed as thomas the tank engine.
Meanwhile..... in the house of suavojr. My wife preached only til 6pm and told me to come home early from work and avoid the darkness of Halloween. Close all the doors, windows and shut off the outside lights so no kids come asking for candy.
Then my wife says she is not superstitious and has Jeho's protection...
i bethelite sent this email out - can't really give out names.
we wrote these figures as quickly as possible, but could not keep up 100%).
you get to check these figures out when you get your 2014 yearbook.
Funny how the internet is now the GB best friend and the new way to preach.
i suppose part of the fascination i have with this board is, the exotic nature of those making up the member population.
i say exotic because, as you yourselves will agree with, folks such as yourselves don't hang around the christian congregation for long upon making the decision that truth is not for you.
(rom 1:25) this "fading" thing spoken of here likely plays a role into why christians such as me find the average ex-jw to be a bit fascinating.

SFPW SAID "modified truths."
That says it all, you modify because the organization needs to survive because of false expectations.
many months ago, i shared the experience of my removal from jehovah's witnesses.
to quickly recap, i had faded from meetings as an unbaptized publisher starting at about age 14 and had later decided to attend college against the wishes of my family.
as i liked to write stories, i sought a job at the college newspaper and became a columnist.. i brought some of my newspapers home during the winter break of my sophomore year, the one time i visited my parents during college.
"One master religion is like one master race" simply perfect!
I know you miss your family and many of us here can relate. Please consider that if they can only offer you conditional love then at the is not real love. This realization hurts but it is better to face reality than to live in a fake world.
Best wishes,
suavojr

So easy to manipulate the bible, so much for being god's word.
it just came out yesterday that the nsa has spied on the vatican and pope francis.
when i went over my parents house yesterday, you could see the excitement, the energy in their eyes when they talked about it.
my dad even pumped his fist like he won something when he was talking about it.
adamah said- "Survival: the New System Edition".
lol, nice concept

So if the big A comes and billions get killed. SFPW will you be happy for eternity with a God that if you dare open your mouth or think different, he will send fire from the sky to burn you up? If you want to live under a celestial North Korea dictatorship be my guest. The nice part is that since you JW's don't beleive in hell I will be just fine sleeping.
so i am trying really hard to get my mom to open up her eyes.... here's our conversation:.
me: "so you liked the film 'the fifth estate'".
mom: yeah it was really good!.
Some don't get indirect or direct, dammit! I am slowy getting ready emotionally to detach myself if my family shuns me.
and why did you choose it?
if you have a avatar, what is it and why did you pick it?.
ok ill start.
Interesting Giordano's story...
