  Life After JWs

  i wanted to share some very cool (in my opinion) news.

  in two months i will have been gone from bethel for 14 years and attended my last meeting 11 years ago.

  i spent 11 years at bethel sacrificing all of my 20's to the borg and finding myself at age 32 with no resume or real work experience.. it has been a tough haul with the majority of my energy going into building a career.

  Johnny. Yep I do!

  "Hey Jesus/God Dude. I put my life against any of the religiously pious for good works and humanitarian treatment of other people. Only I did it because I wanted to, not out of fear of fiery torment or bribing some unseen God.

  Go ahead and judge me!"

  PS .... and please forgive me for the unclean acts with the really hot chick...... but DAYYYUM I am only human

  Well the election is over ....

  81% of the voters ...

  ELECTED ME AS VICE PRESIDENT of the Association - Canada Region.

  70% of the eligible people voted. It was the largest election victory of all the five positions that were part of the election.

  Add to that the fact that I just started dating an intelligent and beautiful former TV personality who is now a French teacher.... who actually seems to like me even!!

  There is in fact a career, nay a life after the JW's!!!

  ROCK ON EXJW's!!!! The best revenge to the WTBS is to lead a happy and full life!

  I have just had a WHOO HOO moment - a pattern in WT lies TIMING in mags

  by hamsterbait in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  april 1st, may 15th and sometimes september.. the number of huge doctrinal bombs, or manipulative deceits that have been printed regularly in those editions is incredible.. if i had the cd still i want to target those magazines to see what they put across.. the pattern is so regular it is monotonous.

  i only realised this today as i was looking up some older threads, and realised how often these months come up.. of course when they want to slip something past craftily, they prolly use a feb or nov witchtower.. anybody able to confirm??.

  do april 1, or may 15 have any special secret "pagan " or other associations??.

  Memorial season and th man created "Service year" conclusion were the two identified times when the weak or inactive generally participated in meetings etc. Often the guilt trips were heaviest to correspond with this time frame.

  Also recognizing the pagan New Year's commitments that get made, they hit the blood card and donation campaign messages during that time.

  So it isn't so much pagan connections it is just good marketing

  Who have you lost?

  i wonder if we each put up who we lost from our lives and how long ago if it would be a testament to those who might find this thread and think.

  the absurdity.. my parents: 12 years.

  my brother: 12 years (he is now married).

  None of the Canadian teams really deserved to be in the playoffs this year. It is a sad reality. Vancouver at least is going to the second round.

  Get used to it Simon, as a Toronto fan I have been waiting over 40 years for my team to do something in the playoffs.

  here is the latest:

  This strain has the potential to be the next pandemic but not right now

  There is limited mortality and most poeople infected only have mild symptoms. Also not known is how many were sick but never reported.

  However if this thing mutates with a more virulent strain, then we could be facing the global Pandemic situations that is feared.

  So now is the time to focus on personal helath and immunity including hand washing protocols and ensuring you keep up to date with your flu shots.

  I will commit to keeping this board informed. I sit on our National Pandemic committee and will do my best to keep this board informed with information as things progress

  I don't want to say this Italian Circus Overseer is lying but it is at least a distortion of the facts for his/their own purposes:

  From the Italian Red Cross who were on the scene within one hour of the initial quake assisting in search and rescue, emergency relief, feeding etc...

  The Italian Red Cross continues to provide relief to those affected by the earthquake in Italy. In shelter camps run by the Italian Red Cross, special activities were undertaken to offer comfort and psychological support during the Easter weekend. 9000 chocolate eggs donated by different companies to the Italian Red Cross were distributed to those left homeless and many recreational activities were organized especially for young children, the elderly and for those with special needs.

  Volunteers and staff of the Red Cross have organized games and various forms of entertainment. The activities were carried out not only in the Red Cross camps but also in the camps of Montereale and Castelnuovo San Pio. A group of clowns were present in the Italian Red Cross camp of San Gregorio. Two playrooms with a capacity for 100 children are now open. Inside are tables, chairs, footballs, toys, blackboards and games. The Italian Red Cross will be setting up more playrooms in the coming days.
  
  Six Advanced Medical Posts of the Red Cross are now operational and two triage tents are providing primary first aid screening.
  
  P sychological support teams are actively working with families affected by the tragedy. To date 10 volunteer psychologists and 10 volunteers are providing psychosocial support.
  
  The Italian Red Cross is running a total of 6 camps in the affected areas; two in Assergi, one in San Gregorio, one in Collemaggio and the fifth in Centicolella. More than 600 volunteers and staff of the Italian Red Cross are supporting these efforts.

  There are 5 soup kitchens run by the Italian Red Cross, providing a total of 22,000 meals each day.

  More than 30 Red Cross ambulances are operational, 12,000 blankets have been distributed, and 200 tents with a 1000-bed capacity offered by the Swiss Red Cross have been set up.

  The Canadian Red Cross continues to accept donations from Canadians wishing to help. Donations can be made at www.redcross.ca, by calling 1-800-418-1111, by mailing a cheque earmarked “Italian Earthquake” to Canadian Red Cross, 5700 Cancross Court, Mississauga, ON, L5R 3E9, or in person at any Red Cross branch.
