i consider all who post here as my family.we have all been hurt in some way.my brother died today.. blueblades,who has six sisters left.mom,dad,one sister and two brothers died.i'm the only man in the family now.

Lutece

Blueblades,

I lost my only brother 11 years ago and I will never forget the pain or forget how much he is missed. I'm so sorry you have to go through this, try to remember all the good times and his qualities and absorb as many of those as you can to honor his memory, that's what I try to do and it helps a little.

so i'm in school, and make a crack about my fanatic parents.

i've made other little comments to this lady before, but this time she stopped, looked at me and said: "what religion did you belong to?

" i told her the jws.

How about how they try to interfere with a couple's sex life, such as "oral" is a no-no and other dumb things......

ok, i'm sure this topic has been covered before, but i'm new here, so indulge me.

what do everyone's screen names mean?

some are pretty self-explanatory, but a few have me intrigued.

Lutece was the name of the city of Paris before the GrecoRoman culture and a fine restaurant in Paris.

Paris is one of my favorite cities to visit, along with Toronto and San Francisco.....I love to travel

i am a jehovah?s witness that has had a lot of doubts the past 5 or 6 months.

i don?t know where to turn or what to do.

i have given my all to jehovah and am scared that if this is not the truth then where will i go.

Welcome!

As you have courage to really learn and study this religion you may go through some serious shocks, hang in there, it is better than being in the dark. I remember finding out certain things that brought me to my knees (even vomiting a few times) it was so sad to burst the bubble I'd lived in for years. Once you realize it's not any different than any other religion you feel so cheated, so betrayed and so stupid, at least I did. Eventually, the things I was learning, it was like a fire burning in my belly, I had to do something about it, I had to tell people. I disassociated myself and moved on and am a much happier, positive person and not judgemental and self righteous like I was as a Witness. I'm free and I am very thankful for that and so are my children, BIG TIME. Good luck on your journey, this board is useful, so use it as you can!
