The good thing about being an XJW is that we don't have to accept the opinions that others shove on us anymore. We're finally grabbing the right to have our own opinions and even make them known to others.

Oh sure, Shana, we could go to Planned Parenthood instead, except, darn, the Right wants to shut them down, too.

The language used on the news was that it was a "closely held" corporation.
Hopefully, it doesn't apply to large, publicly traded corporations.

VERY short day at the Arlington/Dallas International Convention-My Observations
by CaptainSchmideo inokay, some good takeaway:.
i have never been to a convention quite like this before.
a very friendly vibe all around, lots of banners and posters with sayings like "sending love to all our brothers", "see you in the paradise", "ecuador sends greetings", and "jehovahs-witness.net" (okay, i lied on that last one...).

I can't imagine being that close to Six Flags and telling the kids, "Sorry, but we're just going to go to this uberboring convention instead."

Spectre, most of the time prescription coverage does not fall under the deductible and usually has its own copay.

Hobby Lobby has already lost my business.
The SCOTUS decision is a damned shame. For all the fussing the Right does about Sharia law becoming the order of the day, this decision just paved the way for employers to force their religious beliefs on their employees.
When they want Christianity to be respected, it's all well and good, but just wait until a religious business owner of another faith wants to force their religious beliefs on them. Then, look out.

The people i least get along with are EX- J.Ws
by new hope and happiness ini am not talking about posters here on this board ( otherwise i wouldn't be here would i) but in general.. si i am talking those ex j.ws in my community and we just dont get on.
well ok its a bit of an exaggeration to say i don't get on with them, we just dont associate.
this botherd me at first as i thought we would have much in common, but it wasn't so, and it's just the way it is.

Funny, a few years ago in college I sat in a class of about 2 dozen people. The further along in the semester we got, the more I thought that 2 specific individuals had JW characteristics. To say what they were, I couldn't tell you, but they felt very JWish. Finally it comes out that they were indeed XJWs. Funny, but everyone was concerned with the others'statuses. It turned out one was disfellowshipped and wanted to be reinstated and the other was a fader who had found a new Christian religion.
One day, they ended up dressing me down because I had no interest in another religion! I was cornered after class and had to make it clear, in a friendly way, that I wasn't interested in continuing that discussion. They clearly hadn't yet learned about healthy boundaries!

Thoughts of summer and ummmmm
by new hope and happiness inmaybe i still have the j.w mentality, but i am seriouse....why on hot summer days do the youngsters wear such gloomy colors?
it makes little sence,.. o.k maybe they are rebelling, and there hearts are in the right place, but why can't they rebel in cheerful bright orage tea-shirts, especially during the summer months.
but there you go ugggg beautiful girls in such dark and gloomy colors ...its summer girls make an old man feel glad.. .

Unfortunately maxi skirts are in style, the long ones that go all the way to your feet.
JWs love them.
