And being a dub with AS is pure hell on earth! Dubs are the most image concious people as far as the eyes can see. Not to mention that an Aspie with critical thinking skills can blast through the illogic that cult has with lightining quickness that most Neurotypical JWs can't. But alas, they always hold the "You will have no friends" carrot in front of aspie dubs so most feel trapped when they figure out the whole thing's a farce. Deep down inside, growing up, the religion thing didn't make much sense to me but I stuck with it anyway because I wanted to keep my few friends and family. Now, I realize that I don't really have any true friends or family that's connected with the dub church.

JWs - using information kiosk at airport
by Jim_TX inthis past week, i travelled on business from san antonio, tx to dallas, tx.
we had a long day, and got back around 7:30pm or 8:00pm that evening.. walking through the airport here in san antonio, we go down a flight of stairs and past the luggage carousels to our exit.. on the way... at the bottom of the stairs, there was the information kiosk - that used to be upstairs.
behind the kiosk - two middle-aged jw gals.. it was funny, actually.

I got a lot of dirt on the woman at the Minneapolis/Saint Paul airport with the funny accent. You can't see the floorboards in her house, since it's so dirty and she refuses to clean it up, her youngest son is a weird manwhore that's always with some naive fat white girl. Furthermore, her oldest son is a narcicistic rageaholic and a nutcase and he's probably going to be arrested for DV sometime soon.
By the way, to Catherine's friends who lurk here: Bite me.

Mom flies into red rage because I was "attacking" the JWs...
by Kudra inbackground to the conversation:.
i called my parents excited to be having them come out for thanksgiving break.
in the conversation my dad (not a jw) brought up that michael jackson's glove just sold for $300,000 while a recently found first edition copy of darwin's on the origin of species sold for only $100,000.

JWs really don't think using logic and reasoning, they think using emotion. It's how they're programmed.

Meanwhile, the rest of us have been using this same technology for 20 years.

Your bike will hardly get stolen if you follow these steps:
Always use a U lock
Never lock your bike on something that isn't at least 2 inches (5cm) of solid metal.
If possible, get a secondary lock and lock the wheels.
Always pull your bike against the object you're locking it to so you can make sure it's locked.
I've had two bikes stolen, and the reason they got stolen was because my bitchy Jehovah's Witness brother didn't like me keeping my bike in my house and manipulated my mother into keeping it in the garage (I didn't follow step 2 because the garage didn't have someplace I could lock the bike to), and the second time was that I couldn't really concentrate and I forgot to check to see if my bike was locked to something secure. I always make sure to pull my bike against the object that I'm locking it into as hard as I can to make sure it's secure.

How Much of an Impact is Being Made by Young JW' s Leaving the Cult ?
by flipper inwe have read threads where statistics show that 2 out of every 3 people raised as jehovah's witnesses eventually leave once they get in their 20's to 30's and out on their own.
my children and my nieces and nephews are between the ages of 21 to 35 .
out of those 8 people - 4 of them have completely stopped attending meetings .

Relationships after "The Truth"
by Cthulhu ini just saw the last thread started by highdose about her date with the nonwitness gentleman (and you have both my congratulations as well as best wishes).
but then it occured to me as a single guy that i have had very little luck in the dating department since leaving the cult.
i understand why, to a large degree, this can be a problem for folks after they have had their minds and social skills depleated.

I didn't say it was a pattern for all, just a pattern for all JWs who have had overbearing parents that shelter them. However, it's easy to break that pattern if you know what to look for.
My advice would be for you to not date for at least 2 years after you leave. That way, you're wise to the ways of the outside world. Don't go to bars or clubs until after your 2 years are up. Instead, take up a hobby, particularly a safe one. And don't get obsessed about nookie. Trust me, it leads you to places where you don't want to be.
Oh, and if you're really a Satanist in the Anton LeVey sense, ignore everything I said and simply live a hedonistic lifestyle. But buyer beware: you were sheltered from society at a whole, so if you're amongst a group of hedonists, you're going to get screwed over. They love fresh meat.

Sister "Elly" vanishes
by MinisterAmos inmy daughter is 18 and goes to meetings from time-to-time basically to mess with the dubs (she always wears mini-skirts) and keep up on gossip....she actually filled me in on this but i find it amusing.. sister "elly" (we'll just call her that) the buxom vixen of our spanish congo suddenly stopped showing up to meetings.
my curiosity became aroused when not one single person asked her mom about her!.
her mom and step-dad are super-dubs, the kind who take it personally if a child draws pictures during the meeting rather than sit ram-rod straight, if a bro uses the john more than once, or if a sister "forgets" her hose.

>You're doing it wrong. Do not go for the reproduction part.
Umm, that's what sex is. It's attempted reproduction. Even the best BC fails at some time or the other, so that's why you have to look out for who you knock up. If you don't, you'll be on the hook for 18-30 years of your life with CS payments because you tried chasing some young booty. And the younger you knock them up, the less likely they will be able to take care of themselves, so guess who's paying more money. That's right: YOU!!!!!!
>Who cares about about having anything in common? If you want "something in common" give in and get a Dude!
How cute. Brother Amos is using shaming language.
>
Gee, a horny elder that checks out women that are young enough to be his daughter. Where have I heard that before?
>Once in 'da Borg. always in 'da Borg it would seem. Just because I (and every other man not mentally neutered by the Dubs) can appreciate a fine ass in a tight skirt does NOT necessarily mean that I "have lust in my heart". Umm it's built into my genes (jeans)
I can appreciate it too, however, when you get to a certian age, you shouldn't go around checking out women that could be your daughter. It's called "Maturity". Oh, and many JWs have the same feelings towards young women that you do. Bill Bowen can tell you all about it. I guess you're right, once in the borg, always in the borg.
>Want to look at my daughter? I bet she would tear you up.
Considering that I'm a highly physically active person that strength trains every day, has been training in the martial arts for the past 5 years and can cycle for 50 miles on a BMX-style bicycle, I find it very amusing that you think your daughter (Ha ha ha!) could somehow "tear me up". Here are some videos of some of the moves I was taught. [1][2][3]
Anyway, I wouldn't check out your daughter. I'm not an ass man anyway, so I wouldn't really look at her. Well, maybe I'll give her a passing look, but other than that, I would pretty much dismiss her as being too young.
>She has noooo tolerance for Dubs or Dub apologists who have bought into the "subserviant Sister" thing. As a matter of fact she walked out of her Cousins' wedding when the Dub giving the talk spoke about wives and their main duty of assisting in their Husband's ministry.
She sounds like she'd make a shitty girlfriend. Sorry. Even if you don't agree with something at somebody's wedding, you don't walk out and make a scene.
Ephebophile.
