  I hope some JW's post this so I can comment on how ridiculous it is to pursue this lawsuit and what reproach this bring on JW's in eyes of local community and doctors.

  "The Curious case of Benjamin Button" -Brad Pitt was good!

  by Witness 007 in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  the movie about a baby born old and growing younger each year sounds silly, but the film pulls it off very well.

  brad pitt was good and i enjoyed the film.

  cate blanchet is brilliant, a very enjoyable thought provoking film.....did anyone else see it?.

  New World Translation 2013 on EBay

  there are several of the new bibles on ebay, but here you can buy the whole box of 32. i don't know if this link will show the original listing, you may have to click on that to see the description.

  i wonder where these came from, the description seems a bit strange.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/case-of-32-2013-new-world-translation-of-the-holy-scriptures-watchtower-bible-/261362288068?pt=lh_defaultdomain_0&hash=item3cda6805c4&nma=true&si=cb4ceo6bt8tstei2ousxlhx8hva%253d&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557.

  Most aggravating religious group

  look i don't care what you believe, i really don't.

  just leave me out of it.

  if i were interested in your beliefs i would pursue them, but trying to force your literature and views onto people is just rude.

  i need the permission of erick (and i guess those who appear in the videos) to translate and subtitle the videos to spanish.

  the spanish exjw's i know think it's revolutionary to record jc's.. .

  i want to inspire them, so if you give me your permission, i will go ahead.

  Were People Surprised When You Left The Witnesses?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  mine was a gradual going away.

  but once it dawned on them, i think people were shocked that i left the religion i espoused from youth.. were people "in the truth" and "in the world" surprised by your departure?.

  Do you have something to prove?

  by freeflyingfaerie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  sometimes i have to recheck my motives for doing things.. sometimes i do things for the pure joy of it...dance, yoga, nature walk, listen to music, read something interesting, etc.

  but, sometimes when i am engaged in something, like college studies(which i do for the end result and also enrichment), i get flashes of my past that creep in that remind me of a negative message, and it makes me wonder if one of my motives is to also prove something about my self.

  at times i recall my ex-husband calling me 'stupid' or 'dumb'.

  Quite a touching post. In the words of Scarlett, "Tomorrow is another day". I hope you find some peace. I have replaced JW "friends" with those I have met volunteering and at bookclub. It takes time, but these are people that have been there more for me than any JW. My still in family sees how well we are doing as they are on my Facebook. Yes, I feel a need to point it out that we are enjoying life. Wishing you well.

  Meme competition 2014

  simple.... .

  watchtower + meme !.

  anything is acceptable, but make your meme your own, hand written scrawls on microsoft paint are just as funny so don't worry about quality.
