  If You Weren't A Witness, What Would You Be Today?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many of us are or were witnesses because we were born into the religion.

  others became witnesses because they really thought it was the truth.

  so many wish that they never had a jehovah's witness come to their door or their parents' door.

  Were You Ever a Member of the Secret Police?

  by Swan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a lot of experiences have been written about elders spying on people, tailing them in cars, etc.

  i think this may have once happened to me, but am not sure if my intuition was correct or if my mind was just playing tricks.

  i sometimes have some paranoia as a result of the trauma of being in the jws, so i am not sure what to believe.

  To give you a little background info before I delve into my story. My step-dad and mom recently seperated, about a month ago now. My dad is taking this real hard because he really does love her and my mom seems to have gone off the deep end. She recently found out that she has cancer, for those of you familiar with the terms, she is at a C1. Basically it means she is pretty advanced. They are telling her that she has a 70% shot at making it another 5 years. Anyhow, upon learning this, she decides that she doesnt have alot of time left in this world so she seperates from my step-dad. 2 weeks later, the guy I have been taking guitar lessons from moves into the house.

  Because of this dad is feeling pretty lonely. Because he tried to be a good witness he never really made friends with people at work or anywhere else. He is not the brightest of fellows when it comes to things of a scholarly nature but he does notice that things are not quite right in the troof. He decides to stop going to the meetings because of this. Now, because of his borg programming, he has not made any friends outside of those in the troof. (If you can call them friends)

  Sunday morning I decided to pay him a visit at a his new house. As I am walking in I see him dressed up in a suit and tie. When I ask him what he is doing he tells me that he is going to the meeting. I ask him to sit down and we begin to talk. I asked him why he is going to the meeting. His reply was that he felt that things were not getting any better for him since he quit so he might as well go back. I pointed out that he stopped going for a reason and asked him what his reason was for stopping in the first place. He said that it was because of things he had seen such as business practices, hypocrasy and the such. I asked him to remember what it was like for me when I first decided to leave the troof. How the elders were soooo loving that they would whisper poison into my mothers ear which in turn caused her to disown me. By this time I had tears in my eyes, having to relive what I went through because of the WT. I asked him again why he would go back to a place that would encourage the destruction of a family as it did ours. His responce was that he was lonely.

  At this point I was feeling quite bad for him as he is just now having to go through what so many of us have. The feeling that you are alone and noone really cares. I told him that there were soooo many people in the world today that are in the exact same position as he is right now. The same position I have been for the past year. I encouraged him to start making friends at work, especially one guy he works with that he gets along with real well. He happens to be an ex-dub himself. He felt better about everything and said that he knows that the troof is not right and was just looking for answers. He promised me that he and his ex-dub friend would go out fishing soon.

  I just wanted to share with you all what happened. Thanks for taking the time to read all this. *hugs*

  The Two Towers

  by Xander in

  2. entertainment

  just saw this.. great movie.

  not as good as book, but about matches it roughly as good as fellowship matched the book.. gollum is class act - for those worried the little cgi creature wouldn't work, don't be!

  he looks great - and the voice acting is dead one.. won't say too much, as spoilers might ruin it for some, but you really, really should see the extended edition dvd of the fellowship before seeing this movie.

  I love the books, I have read them no less than 15 times through. Although the movie is ommiting things (due to time constraints, I'm sure) they so far have been excellent. The CGI Gollum was hysterical. I cannot wait for the 3rd instalment to come out.

  Anyone heard of people dressing up like wizards, dwarves, hobbits, or elves to go to the movies like those nutters do for Star Wars?

  No offense intended to any in-house nutters with my above comment.
