we went to the ice skating rink yesterday to take our daughter to a birthday party and we saw some dubs we hadn't seen in a couple of yrs.
we xena said hello the first thing r said was "i'm disfellowshipped" xena said: "so" i told her we haven't been to the kh in about 2 yrs and she says: "ya'll really should go back" now here is a woman who is currently living in sin with her df'd boyfriend.
they were both in crappy marriages and they ran away together.
Thanks Harmony,
I'm hoping that soon we can start a dialogue with them. They have a couple of children near the same age as ours. He was very involved in the KH (sign language) but was never respected. He was a black man married to a white women. We should get to talk a little before the wedding.
They didn't say anything about the party. They were just there to skate as a family. They really are nice folks. I hate to see them suffering like that.

They were both in crappy marriages and they ran away together. We both told her that we were happy for her and she said she would send us an invitation to thier wedding in a couple of months. Meanwhile he never came up and said hello. Poor thing. He was trying to avoid us because he thinks we're still JDubs.
I just feel sorry for these people who are estranged from a life that's ultimatly bad for them and they want to get back. They have to run around like puppies with their tails between their legs until someone decides they've had enough punishment.

interesting article about this.
one thing that surprised me was that people confuse morning after pills with ru-486 (or the abortion pill) which it is not.
as this is my local paper, the stats are all about minnesota and south dakota :) .
Wow! great article. Not that I'll ever need it. I do know some people who could use the info. Thanks Harmony

this is straight from today's sunday times.
my guess is that what is written here pretty well typifies how most europeans regard america.. is it fair?

Expat,
It was worth it! Age old question. What's more important? Fun or Sleep? Sleep always loses!
It will be interesting to see what happens in the future. The world has changed so much in the last 100 years. With the advancements in communications, transportation and human rights the world has almost become one nation with different states. We can no longer ignore the problems of our neighbors on the other side of the globe. What will dominence mean in the future?

That's cool ExPat,
I just woke up from a very late night and there was still a little piss in my system. Sorry I didn't see your humor. Great comeback!
I wonder what the rest of the world thinks that the Americans feel. Do they think we feel superior? Do they think we feel compassionate? Do they think we want to conquer the whole world?

EXPat,
What's your problem? Do I have to spell everything out for you? Do you know how to carry on a conversation? I guess not. Ok look. Let me spell it out for you. As long as the US has had the power they have acted as the police of the world and the world was glad to have us. Now, go ahead pick that apart. Let your jealousy shine.

Wow! While it's hard to personify a whole nation I do believe that was pretty close. This nation has always taken on the responsibility of protecting the whole world and sometime the world is grateful. Sometimes it isn't.

PW: Proplog, I'm glad to be living in Babylon the Great. Aren't you? Or do you hate the things this country does for you?
i am still fairly new to this site (was raised a jw from 4 til i just stopped going to meetings and moved out of the parents' house @ 17 in 1985).. fortunately i have a good relationship with my parents (i am an only child, which probably helps, not to mention the fact that they continually can't wait to see their grandchildren --3yr old boy and 7 mth old girl) even though they still diligently are full fledged dubs (my dad was an elder for many years before stepping down due to the extremely heavy load of preparing for talks, elders meetings etc, due to time it was taking away from our family).. after reviewing the numerous sites on the web and learning the truth and hypocrisy surrounding the watchtower, there are so many issues that i want to raise with the folks yet haven't mustered up the courage to do so, but that's another topic.. my question for you all is this: what do you think about the idea of anonymously dropping off incriminating documentation at the front door of the kh?
imo there are so many down in the ranks have no clue the stuff about the un, silentlambs info, etc.
someone would be bound to see this stuff, and it could cause a domino effect if received in the right wavering hands (of course the opposite i know could occur with a devout jw who immediately sees it as apostate and discards it down the toitet).. love to hear your thoughts!
How about dropping little pieces of paper with only a web address for an apostate site about the size of a fortune from a fortune cookie.
Or write it on the bathroom wall.
Or slip it inside a book in the literature Dept.
No explainations just the web address. That way the curiosity is peeked and they will check it out.

gal 1:8. we have the apostle paul clearly warning the galatians, to the extent of invoking a divine curse, about believing other versions of the good news than what paul had originally published.. the question is which good news should i believe?
the one published by the apostle paul from tarsus, or the one from charles taze russell from allegheny, pennsylvania?.
john 6: 53,54. we have none other than jesus christ himself, our supposed leader, telling us in no uncertain terms that unless we eat his flesh and drink his blood, we will not have everlasting life.. the question is whom should i trust with my everlasting prospects?
? So Jesus told his disiples to EAT ME! ? I like that. Maybe he was Gay....
