  Im sure I'll get some hate messages. But whatever. For the most part, I've moved on. (I haven't written my farewell to this site. There are some thoughts and experiences I want to share before I do.) But I just had to post the links!

  I can always delete my posts later if necessary.

  Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

  from my yahoo answers question here: .

  "the bible says of deborah: "now deborah, a prophetess, the wife of lappidoth, was judging israel at that time.

  5 she used to sit under the palm tree of deborah between ramah and bethel in the hill country of ephraim; and the sons of israel came up to her for judgment.

  i stopped to visit a sister at the hospital yesterday.

  (i'm a guy) her husband is having a health crisis of his own and i figured that if he got to the hospital to sit with her, he was doing miserably.

  what i heard was that she had had a stroke and these people would really be up against the wall if she got "shut down,".

  sometimes people make special connections to animals.

  sometimes they bond very deeply and are real friends.

  yesterday was the end of such a friendship that lasted ten wonderful years.

  Hugs... thank you for sharing your story... dogs are super special creatures. i had a chihuahua while growing up, and when she passed i was heartbroken. i even thought i could hear her walking down the hallway in the middle of the night! (we had hardwood floors, and you could hear her nails against them when she walked.)

  now i have 2 doggies, they're sisters altho they don't look anything alike. they're adorable, but not very smart. LOL i don't like to think about how long they might be around. just try to enjoy them. they're always smiling when they see me. they are very thankful for their baths even tho they don't like it at the moment. good dogs, just not too smart, haha!

  hugs to you

  I've lurked a long time: JW's produce some of the most paranoid humans

  by Unlearn in

  1. jw

  i'll keep this brief for now.. long time lurker (4 years or so).. born-in, elder, used on district level (last talk i gave before i left was the baptisimal talk), and lots of hard time put in...before i finally made the move to split.

  it's a long stoy, much like many of yours...but with it's own little interesting twists.

  more details in the future, perhaps.. as i said, ive lurked here for a while.. its funny: for a long time i'd only come on late at night.

  If you can share more of your story, please do. Inspiration to move on from the damage inflicted by this cult is what I need.

  I believe love is God.

  I don't care about the God of the Bible or any other religion anymore.

  Blown away-- where to go from here

  i stumbled upon this website a few weeks ago due to the jw.org ridiculousness, since then i haven't been able to pull myself away.

  the thoughts, feelings, and concerns i have had the past few years aren't just mine.

  it's global.

  That's a huge generalization about Hispanic congs in the US. I belonged to one for 13 of the 15 I was a jw, and one thing they all had in common-- cliques GALORE! Lol to your comment about friendship n attention for all-- that was not my experience!

  Oh, welcome AFS. I made many of the observations you did. Drove me mad.
