  probably not new to many of you but i'm gonna post it anyway!.

  i went to a circuit assembly last week at the fremont, ca assembly hall in fremont, ca to be with my wife so she could be there to 'witness' the baptism of a person she "studied" with about 2 decades ago!.

  at the main entry to the assembly hall there are 3 or 4 large double door entrances.

  Roundabouts really drive me a bit batty, but I'm slowly getting used to those things. My first encounter with one was about 5 years back, but it was not one that I drove on very often (Arkansas). Then I went to visit a relative in Missouri and really got confused, they had added one after we have moved away. Now they added another not far from where I currently live. My husband keeps hitting the curve on that one. lol

  Biahi, I was watching something the other day about a woman who left a cult called the Quiverfull, that she grew up in, and she said the Duggars are members.

  Here is the video if your interested.

  I have no desire to ever be inside a car that drives itself.

  hi i haven't posted for a while but i have a question and would appreciate any advice offered.

  i left the cult 2 years ago and i'm so happy now.

  i struggled at first and with the help of the lovely men and women on here i got stronger and started to find myself and ive grown as a person (i'm not being told who i am or who i should be anymore).

  @Freedom Rocks, there is a man who has a Youtube channel who left the JWs, and in some of his videos, he talks about what he did to help his own children and the indoctrination that they had. His children are/were still fairly young. Here is one of his videos, but there are a few others where he talks about his own children. He might have some ideas for you.

  Biahi, I haven't met any of the Duggars, but I have met several different people who know them personally and they all say the same thing, that they are all completely crazy.

  Exactly where I am living, Northwest Arkansas, United States. For the most part we have fairly mild winters, and hardly any snow.

  Stupid armageddon false alarms

  2. experiences

  when i was 5/6 i remember being in the car with my jw mom and a jw sister.

  they noticed a yellow ish glowing cloud in the sky which really freaked them out and they both declared that it must be a sign that armageddon was here!

  they then spent the whole car trip declaring that the police and army were about to come and round up all of us.

  There were too many for me to count. But here are a few that really stuck out in my memory.

  An older sister who claimed to be of the anointed said these words to me, "If we knew how close we were to the end we would just die of a heart attack."

  Several brothers from the stage (different talks) would say, "We are in the final seconds of the last hours."

  But the biggest confirmation was when George Bush said in a speech at the UN, "Today we declare peace and security."

  I'm not defending anyone, but the next person could be much worse.

  i am so sick of this cult, this religion has such a grip on her.

  since i left in 2014, things just are getting progressively worse.

  and she it's just getting deeper and deeper.

  I agree with Simon on this. When you do talk with her, make sure you keep your emotions in check and keep things calm.
