Planning A Fade. Need Ideas
by Doubtfully Yours inthis double life is slowly eating away at me.
i'm planning to fade away and need all the ideas i can get.. it needs to be a fade because my parents, who i care deeply about are heavily into it and my poor hubby is wanting to obtain more privileges in the cong.
me, on the other hand, can't stand going to so many meetings and service and giving parts, etc.. very much appreciate your ideas and support.

So unfair. So cruel. And certainly baffling if he is referring to your df status. I'm thinking it may be best to put him out of your mind--and encourage your sister to do the same--and focus on helping her do what she can to feel better. But I know that's easy for me to say. Hugs.

So called "Theocratic Warfare"
by Mysterious ini've heard others talk about it but i've never been in the middle of it before until now.
mom was peeved at me for not being very theocractic (not doing anything wrong, just not being dub enough) and she started talking about how it was with my dad.
she totally spun a tale to me about how he slowly drifted away.

My brother died last night
by doodle-v inmy brother turned 21 on september 24th, a month later the doctor told him that his leukimia had returned and he had a 10% chance of surviving.
ten days before he died he spent four days at my house.
he had already made up his mind that he wasnt going to take blood.

Got outta hospital today
by Brummie injust wanted to say thanks for the pms, i'll spend more time online in the near future.
i went into hospital early tuesday morning, had surgery wednesday and had to have a flamin pipe stook up through my gum travelling into the back of my nose.

My wife stole my books!!!!
by dmouse ini had an interesting conversation with a jw last week, who insisted that she was not 'brainwashed' and would be prepared to look at any evidence i had that the 'truth' was not the one true truth.. so i went to my book cupboard to get my copies of 'crisis of conscience' and 'signs of the last days - when?
' in order to lend them to her.. and they are gone!!!!
i am absolutely certain they were there only a few weeks ago.. i can only assume that my jw wife (whom i'm not on the best of terms with) has taken them.

No advice, dmouse, just lots and lots of good wishes. I hope you won't have to continue to deal with this much longer.

FAT PEOPLE = BAD ASSOCIATION
by Funchback ini carry a few extra pounds but i generally don't overeat.
however, i enjoy a good meal.
but, the organization that says, "let us not judge others" is giving it's members free reign to judge those who are overweight (in the judger's eyes).

Wow. Do you think this will be like smoking? A deadline will be set for "christians" to achieve their ideal weight and if they fail they will be disfellowshipped? Wow.

So the elders want to meet with me....

You might want to ask your dad if he thinks it will make it any easier/better for him and your mom if you talk to the elders? I wonder if they're pressuring him? If he thinks it will make it easier, you might ask him to talk it through with you since you have no intention of saying anything the elders want to hear. If he doesn't care, don't talk to them.
