i am new to the board and have read countless gripes and pokes at "the organization" but i fail to find one interesting question.. in preface... i was disfellowshiped myself over 5 years ago.
in that time, i had done much searching, visited many churches and faithes.. going to some for as short as one session and some as long as 6 - 8 months.
after i felt my search was in vein i stopped attempting to go to these shurches all together.. i never forgot how to pray through.

As many claim that they have learned from the WTS, and that they have come to another conclusion from questioning thier original view point... question it as well.
how far do you go questioning things before someone starts to label you as living in a fantasy world?

so, if i cant have plasma, but i can have plasma fractions, then i should be able to say to the doc,
"i cant have plasma, but i can have plasma fractions and the amount of plasma fractions i can have isnt limit ed. you know i need all the fractions of plasma, and so i'll choose to have all the plasma fractions, and to be efficient, wouldnt it be a good idea to put all these fractions into one bag. nudge nudge, wink wink."

i learned that to be a christian, you dont have to be part of a religious organisation.
isn't it nice to get a blast from the past from wts literature?
here's two great quotes i found recently, about how we can benifit from sun bathing, and how mankind can't go into space.
golden age, sept. 13, 1933, p. 777> -- "the earlier in the forenoon you take the sun bath, the greater will be the beneficial effect, because you get more of the ultra-violet rays, which are healing" .
doh! the link doesnt work, spud

The Truth Shall Make You Free, 1943, p. 285 -- "Man on earth can no more get rid of these demonic `heavens' (the organization of wicked spirits) than man can by airplane or rockets or other means get up above the air envelope which is about our earthly globe and in which man breathes."
i'm sure someone could create a comic book with WTS literature!
hey gang,.
just wanted to say 'hi' to everyone.
i've been busy and not had access to the internet for a loooong while, and just got a land line today yay, not sure how long i'll have access to this.
welcome back ven!!
funny, just this arvo i was wondering where you had got to.
i read some reports (infact the majority) and they seem to imply all jws are paedophiles!
seldom do they draw the distinction between the majority (who are not peds) and the few who are.
perhaps we need to be more balanced when we comment on these things...dont cha think?.
ooohhhhhhhhh, you bad oold putty cat!!
i have read alot on this site for a while and just have been absorbing it as i make my way.. one thing i noticed was alot said about abuse of children... i experienced the reverse...false stories told..believed by elders because of hidden agenda and 20+ years as special pioneers ..etc.
as of no count and belief in a new publisher destroyed our lives and children's lives.
the horror never stops ...some of our family is disassociated...some disfellowshipped...some inactive...some active..some on a fence...mostly because of one or two elders and the misapplication of their power and lack of love to our family.
welcome maggie!!!
I just wish there was someplace that I could enjoy the truth of christian freedom to worship my God without all the other stuff that goes on.
there is a place maggie, it's called your heart.
i'm going to be offline for quite a while.
i'm moving this weekend and the computer i use belongs to my sister.
since i will no longer be living with her i won't have daily access to a computer.
