Prince is a brilliant writer, Purple Rain Is an amazing album of the 80's (worthy of even being mentioned in the awake for it's porno content). But I wonder if his mental state is ok cos he lost his kid and maybe he feels that hes getting answers. I know that he is vulnerable and we all know that the JW's prey on the vulnerable.
I feel sorry for him, he's searching for something and got the wrong answer

are you sitting down?........PRINCE is a JW!!!!!
by lisaBObeesa inhello all, registered just to post this and see what you all had to say about this.
i, for one, am in shock.
it was anounced today on "extra" and they said we would soon see a change in his music because he was "marrying his music to his religion.

Need to vent... advice is welcome
by SlayerLayer inwhen i was 13, all of the other kids in my congregation were taking home school, getting them out of the "bad association" in public school.
they talked me into it too.. of course, at 13 trying to get me to actually do the schooling was a feat that no one could master.. i worked for a brother in the cong.
full time, and never finished the schooling.. so...flash forward.

when you go from having company to having none its a big jump and it is very lonely and bad for self-esteem. I don't think you are being fair to those who have posted of their loneliness. It takes time to adjust and if you say to people that they are lonely cos they don't like themselves then you are in effect saying your misery is your fault and its not. It makes people feel even less empowered.

Masturbation
by CoolBreeze inthe title of this thread was one of the stumbling blocks of my study.
as a single full time father(with no time for dating)of a soon to be tenage son this was a major point of imprt to me.
the point came up during a discussion on porneia(sp?).

read anything by Jack Kerouac, it makes you think a bit more than normal. It makes you want to lead an alternative lifestyle it makes you want to feel free

Does the Watchtower break up famelies?
by OlderTom inmy word it does.. when i started studying with the witlesses all of my family and inlaws deserted me for following a stupit cult.
my wife divorced me and my children won't talk to me.. that's ok because according to jdubs that proves it's the truth.. as i progressed in "the truth(tm)" all my friends started to abandon me because i was always going to those booring meetings.. when i found someone i liked in "the truth" and started associating with her, some of my witness friends tried to break up the friendship.. ie break up another family before it even starts.. after i married her without getting the elder permission, some of my jdub friends tried to df me, to show how much they loved me.. when they failed to df me some of my witless friends decided to shun me anyway even though the elders pronounced us no guilty.. i should have sued the bastards for slander.
today i'd just give him (the instigator) a good hiding.

Hi everyone,
You will no by my past posts how my boyfriends family have treated him cos he decided to try an alternative lifestyle that they disagreed with.
I can't accept any religion that tells a mother to pretend that her son doesn't exist or asks a son to pretend that he has no mother. It is not normal and hurts people so very much that it is beyond cruel. I can not accept this action and it is the one single thing that convinces me that it isn't any where near the truth.
Essie, my boyfriend had the exact same thing happen to him....now how is that a good thing???Love uni girl

Dear Wendy,
After readind azazzels comments about you, I felt compelled to write to you personally because I felt that her criticisms were unfair, I hope that you got it.
When I began lurking around this site, I was impressed by your comments and although sometimes they were forthright they were never cruel...Don't let a few people get you down. As you can see from the response many people enjoy reading your commentsJust to cheer you up

Celebrate with me today
by Esmeralda intoday, april 20th, is the fourth anniversary of a very special day in my life.. the anniversary of my rebirth.. this rebirth was not a religious experience, but it was something totally pure, amazing and healing.. it had nothing at all to do with the society, or rather, of freeing myself from it.
it was however, a giant first step in that direction.. today is the fourth anniversary of the day i got letter that changed everything.
the words on the pages were alive, and magical: they released me from my old life and for the first time.

The jokes on them as always
Does it imply that we were just looking for facilities to 'do' it or that perhaps we were shy and never got actually down to it.
Any way I got a divorce for his unreasonable behaviour and not my so-called adultery in heart.

Marijuana...should it be legalised?
by digderidoo inafter talkin in chat tonight....it has got me and a friend talkin about whether marijuana should be legalised.. my view...yes, .
i) who has the right to tell me what to do with my own body?.
ii) alcohol is a legalised drug....each year more deaths occur through alcohol abuse than marijuana usage.. iii) people smoke it anyway and the question is not bein addressed.. iv) it's great to get stoned!!!

william burrough's said it perfectly.....he'd never seen anyone hurt over tea, but drink,,,that another matter.
I don't really enjoy weed but nearly all my friends smoke, they are just so chilled all the time. I think with drugs, half the excitement is locating them if they were ready available perhaps the excitement would go JUST A THOUGHT
