  i am so ashamed to admit that i waz called a jehovahs witnesses, that sometimes i want to move & change my name!.

  how many of you feel the same, or do you share the camp of those who say, "everything happens for a purpose"?

  even though i have been out for about 3 yrs., i still can't believe i waz that stupid!

  Hey Mr. Ben...interesting you bring up the point about how being a JW helped you quit smoking. My 6 year old daughter and I were discussing smoking yesterday and how bad it is for you...I related to her that both her grandparents used to smoke but that they gave it up...she wanted to know why and I explained to her that when they became JW's they were required to quit...we then reflected on the fact that some good came out of the JW experience for them...and that some good can come out of ANY experience..it just depends on how you view it and what you personally take from it.

  So while I would never recommend joining the JW's to quit smoking it is nice to know that something good came out of the experience.

  born in toronto, canada in 1952, i lived with my parents and three younger brothers until i was ten years old.

  there was a lot of violence in our home.

  my father was an abusive, rageful man who took out all his frustrations on his family.

  Has Ray considered switching to romance novels??? You know the ones with women with heaving breasts on the covers?? Then Lucy would steal those...read them...get all hot and bothered...and quite possibly break some JW sex rules!!!!!

  Well it could happen!!!

  they wont leave me alone!

  i have a problem..i have been df'd for like 6 or 7 years i lose count but point is my parents are still stuck in the alternate dimension called jw and they seem to think that there is still a "chance" for me.

  lol..funny shit i think but anyway, the town i live in just happens to house some of my friggin elder pop's elder friends...like i thought when i got df'd that meant they would leave me alone but now that i have a wife and kid that arent jw related at all my parents seem to think that my wife will "convert" i trust my wife better than that and i know that there is no way that she would ever do that..she is as cynical as i am..my prob is that they have infiltrated me at my work and i dont want to have to be an asshole about it but i just need them to leave me be...anybody got any ideas on things i can do shy of buying a fully automatic weapon and perching myself on my front doorstep?

  anyway..i can hear the psychiatrist callin my name...lol..

  I have had a couple of JW stop by the house a few times to try and get me back to the meetings (I am not d/f or d/a yet)...what has worked for me is when they ask one of their leading questions...you know the kind..uuummm with all the world events going to don't you feel like we are in the last days??? I respond with NO I don't...every effort they make to draw me in is met with a negative...and then I express just how happy I am NOW...funny they have quit coming by....

  nelly's advice on putting the silent lamb/freeminds stickers on the WT & Awake mags they leave is truly inspired!!!! Bravo nelly!
