  Witnesses Just Tried to Have Me Arrested!!!!

  well, i just got home and im piping madd.. im laughing about it as well though because i outsmarted them at their own game and got a rant off my chest.. heres what happened.

  an acquaintance i used to go to the hall with.. who is also 3 years younger than me asked me for money about 6 months ago.. at the time, i loaned him $50 to get the tires on his car fixed.

  in that time period, not only did he move out of his parents house to an undisclosed location because he decided to stop going to the kh.. but i also da myself in that time frame.. due to the fact he moved out, i havent been able to reach him.. i tried calling his parents home to discover his current location or at least to tell them if he contacts them, to be sure to have him reach me because he owes me money.. no response.

  A new year ... a new start ...

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  well, 2002 comes to a close and it's been a busy year.. we have had over 380,000 posts!

  in them we've laughed, we've cried, we've celebrated and commiserated, we've fallen out and made up and we've seen new people come and people move on.. what's to come in 2003?.

  well, some changes .... the new forum is nearly ready (though i expect will never be 'finished' lol) and i think it is a good opportinity to do some things differently and make a 'fresh start'.. i have incorporated features that will allow me to give other people the chance to get involved running the site so it becomes less 'mine' and more 'ours'.

  My Message To You

  by OrbitingTheSun in

  to many people, the new year symbolizes hope--a chance to cast away that which has bothered us, and to cultivate all of the things we have dreamt about throughout the year (but never found the energy to do).

  i both believe in and love the spirit of the new year, but it is vital for us to remember that the hope we feel now is merely the result of a collective belief in ourselves and in each other.

  there is no more opportunity on january 1st than there is on any other day of the year, yet we feel inspired and motivated to change our lives.

  taming of a beast.

  it was back in 1993, the last day of work before christmas.

  70 of us were laid off that day (after 6 months notice), and left at lunch, never to go back.

  RobotNM,

  I'm soo glad that you and your wife are out of the Organization. You are very encouraging as to your attitude; staying positive although being in the org for many years. That's a great attitude to have. There's nothing any of us can do about our years lost in the "LIE". I'm so happy that you are here and for you sharing your story with all of us. Look forward to more of your posts! Welcome to the JWD board! Happy Holidays!!!!!!!!!

  then i ask for a mag ,and how much ... you know the line to pay for the printing and so on.. at this point i give 10 cents and ask for 3 cents change... and get it lol... as this is a all black cong.. i go into all the racist that was taught by the wt ... the girls are getting upset... i let them know the wt said that if they pray hard enough they could become white... a couple of the bro's came over ,one was intersted in what i said ,,i slipped him my phone # he said he would call...after the sisters ran away the leader of this pack saw me talking to this bro and chased him off... then i started with him telling the kids he was with that by following the elder he was leading them to death.

  that he should put a millstone around his neck and jump into the hudson river for stumbling the childeren what these false prophecies... he asked me to give him a date of false prophecy...ho ho i threw about 20 at him and asked him which one he wanted to study.. as we are at the hall now lets check out the library ... well his head started spinning... i said come on you are calling me a liar in front of your cong.. now back it up... all the while i'm telling the kids the wt is satan... well i shut him up fast, he was running in and out of the hall fumbling for his keys... and i didn't let up the whole time.... i left a lot of food for thought only hope a few may open their eyes..... john
