a reliable source (other than the national enquirer, that is) has reported that jw venus williams has been spotted in public passionately kissing an older male called "frankie" outside a mall near palm beach gardens, florida, and then getting into a car with him.
the couple met at the art institute of fort lauderdale.... is this chaste behavior as required by the watchtower?.
how long before the 20-year old gets the chop?.

I must put my hand up and say that it was me with Venus. I was visiting
the States and heard that she liked older men, so I called her and offered
to show her my racket. Afterwards we studied a Watchtower to show that
we were repentant. Next time I want to have a go at mixed doubles with
her sister!
hello again friends!.
well it was time again for me to take my weekly dose of apostate faeces and see what it tastes like.
decided to check out randy watters this time (we all love him here) and his little testimony on freeminds.org, titled "what happened at bethel in 1980?
StiLLinTruth,
You say you are in the 'Truth.' That is grammatically impossible.
Perhaps one day you will have truth within yourself.
Now that would be something worth striving for but until then
you have my pity.
to waiting - (and all you lurkers out there - what you looking at - this is private?).
i'm little confused.
though i have no recollection of calling you hysterical, let's say i did and i've forgotten.. you say that to call you hysterical is 'a gender related criticism.
Hi Waiting,
Yes - literally. We moved from a large house to a not so large
house in a neighbourhood where people place more importance
on friendship than money. I think for a while after leaving the JWs,
I overcompensated and thought that the more money I had the
happier I would be. I found out that it dosen't work like that.
Now I'm going to travel more and ease up a bit. I've paid my dues
and I've decided to take the rest of my life off. In short experience
and living is more important than accumilating possesions.
I hope you had a good time in Texas.

Thanks waiting, 6of9 and all of ya,
I have been a bit busy lately - moved house last Monday
and just got the computer set up 10 minuites ago. It worked first time.
My god's are with me!
We moved down market. Did the big house thing -
but found it wasn't worth the candle. Snobbish neighbours and a garden
like a park. I've returned to where I belong.
it's quite amusing to read the self-exaltation contained within.
the watchtower and contrast it with the organization's sterile.
reality.
Yes metatron,
Boredom and religion go hand in hand.
The reason that religion is responsible for the worse wars fought in history is that the members got bored and decided that it was better to risk dying, than live through any more boredom. The Watchtower has kept the membership 'Awake!' with the threat of the ultimate war of all wars - Armageddon. If it dosen't come soon the members will leave out of boredom. Perhaps all the ex-members will battle with the die-hard members that refuse to leap from the Tower and the boredom will be relieved. Still that would be playing into their hands - best stay away and let the Watchtower crumble into ruin out of boredom.
Edited for spelling - God this wine's good.
went to waterworld to find out what had prompted the mildmannered simon to post as he did the other day.
simon, i genuflect in your general direction.
you are truly a decent soul.
To Simon,
For he's a jolly good fellow -
For he's a jolly good fellow -
For he's a jolly good fellow -
And so say all of us.
as most of you know i am new to the world of the internet.
therefore i am new to the discussion board forum.
when i first entered simon's place, i did not fear to speak my mind.
Wendy /Mommy,
That is a thought provoking post. There has been a lot of talk recently about how this forum has changed. It's a bit like any gathering of people, we are all so different and we all want to be accepted and in some way impress and be validated.
I started off being sincere and thoughtful and giving away something of myself but found that I was ignored in favour the more exiting and argumentative posters. I have tried humour at the risk of being naff. I have tried a more up-beat style to keep pace with the cool, with-it posters. I have probably failed and even considered starting again with a less boring name and identity and having some fun instead of trying to be sincere. I concluded that if I could not be myself then there was no point in wasting time posting here.
You have given a great deal of yourself, Wendy, genuine emotion and heartfelt response, which is appreciated by many here. It is difficult to know how much to give away, how much emotion to share, before people start to yawn. I guess you can't please everybody. Every one here is looking for something different and no one style will appeal to everyone. I am perceived as boring but I have a surprise for you - I really am as boring as I appear. You see that is my idea of a surprise. Exciting isn't it!
Sometimes it seems that some serious and well thought out threads are ignored in favour of half brained one liner insults that achieve an unbelievable number of replies. It's a jungle out there and we are all different animals. It's a case of - what are we looking for? I have had to ask myself - why am I here in the first place?
I think it is the willingness of those that do make genuine posts that make this a place worth visiting. All that glitters is not gold but you give pure gold. I hope you don't change.
Trevor
that got you to read this!
what country are you from?.
i find it encouraging to see where different posters are from in the world, especially for me, if you are from the uk or europe.
Yeah there are a few of us Anglise and Querty.
I live near Brighton in Worthing, on the south coast.
My 'e' mail is as open as my head and it's my real name.
Boring but true.
