Scooby and SoJ. I hope you realise some day and decide to read your back posts, you'll have a damn good laugh.
Post your loving council below 'brothers'.
i don't think we're anything alike from what i've read of your posts.
i'm interested to know what you think...... an old saying comes to mind though:.
"you laugh at me coz i'm different, but i laugh coz you're all the same" .

how did you find this site?
did you make a search in google for jw's, or did someone tell you about this forum?.
how did you end up here?
Angels led me to freeminds and freeminds led me here ...sorry, that demons of the apostate world.
did i get your attention?
heeeeee hee heh!
me and the missus were rolling about on the floor with these, enjoy........
I love this guy, he's as funny as hell - love to go and see him.
i think that witnesses think that satan is actually more the one we have to reckon with.
if we believe jehovah god is so powerful, why worry so much about satan and his demons.
the angels of god are supposed to be much stronger and powerful than any demon, so why are jw's consumed with the demons??
If we go by the bible's view then everyone with mental conditions that the world has grown to treat and help would be viewed as demon possessed, shunned by society and probebly left in a dark room somewhere. Gimme a break!
If it wasn't for the dummy wordly's as the JW's view them we would still harbour the same attitudes today. I think we should be proud of ourselves and how far we have come with facing a lot of issues, although things are far from perfect I think they are much better than years ago. If things were left up to the JW's ...well, perish the thought.
often we see pictures of each other on this forum, but often we only see the face and not the rest.
i stand 5' 8" tall barefeet, at 138 lbs naked .
so, how tall are you?.
I'm 6ft, 2.
As for weight my brother used to call me skelator (off of Heman), haven't changed but gonna work on it someday if I can get off my skinny butt - call me old fashioned but I don't think these things matter as much as some people would like us to believe, well they don't to me anyway.
it worries me when i hear of governments discussing jws in their countries with the thoughts of banning them!
i disagree with banning them.
they are a determined people who will suffer greatly for their fanaticism, i think they should be closely monitored but not banned.
Don't ban - prosecute!
The WTS are responsible for so much it makes me sick!
Everyone has the right to religious freedom but what happens when they over step that mark - they should have to answer to someone, to humanity. It's our responsability.
Did Man Get Here By Marriage or by Fornication?
One of the earlier posts but this was sooooo funny!
that is, daing myself.
i have been reading coc, and am just disgusted right now.
how can my name be attached to this man-made cult?
Hello shamus,
Keep your friends and family as long as you can. The longer you're "in," the better you can help them.
This is very true, sometimes I tell my JW mum what I know and think. She gets really stressed about it when I ever talk about it but just a little now and again and you can see the logic just prying on her. I just want her to think logically so when ever she’s sat in a meeting or at an assembly and that extremism is being lashed out about apostates or silent lambs or anything else the unbiased logic that I have tried to explain to her will come into play.
I went through exactly the same thing and I thought like many here- why play by their rules and I didn’t want to give them the satisfaction and make it easy for them. I’m of much better use so-called in than out, especially from a family point of view. I can be there for my young nieces and nephews, as they get older. I’ll do it for them not for closure.
Life isn’t a game it’s for real; I think that’s one thing we’ve all learned – just play your best hand.
hi i'm marilyn!.
i just found this board today via a link from randy at free minds.
yea!
Hi Marilyn and WELCOME!
Great site isn’t it at free minds, there’s so much I haven’t even touched on there yet. Lookin’ forward to hearing more from you.
be wise.
hi everyone, i want to let you know that sometimes i feel ashamed of what i fell for regarding the jws.
its so clear now sometimes i actually feel embarrassed.
when i listen to recordings of assemblys - you know when they really get off on one, you cant help but see and feel the underlying cult propagated information thats being taught.
Hi Marianne , sometimes this is the way I feel about my music. I feel embarrassed because I know eventually people are gonna hear it who haven't got a clue about where it is coming from, but now I just think f#+k it, it was a part of my life and I'm moving on.
I think it’s admirable that you talked to someone openly about it, even though you may have felt uncomfortable after because of his or her reaction to it, it makes it even clearer to you, which is only a good thing really!
