Stirred: If I had witness that no amount of money would have stopped me from knocking
on folks doors, you know they were JW's not Jesus followers, that's what I was told.
you are on guard at jesus sealed tomb.
all of a sudden a great earthquake occurs and an angel.
wearing a dazzling outfit descends from above like lightning and this angel single handedly rolls away.

You are on guard at Jesus sealed tomb. All of a sudden a great earthquake occurs and an angel
wearing a dazzling outfit descends from above like lightning and this angel single handedly rolls away
the stone of the sealed tomb and no Jesus. You see this and fall to the ground "like dead men" scared sh--tless.
You had a front row seat to the most important and impressive miracle of all time, but you don't however start worshiping
the obvious God- Man. And then there's another quake where all these dead saints are walking around in the city.
So you see all this and what do you do, run to the priest that sent you and tell them everything that happen.
The priests tell you to "LIE" about what you saw, here's some money.
I call BS... The angel sat on the stone folks...

6 open carry my fire arm every where (legal here also).
"Why anyone would let mental midgets control all aspects of their life is beyond me".
It s hard for non-JW's to understand that, you are told how to act in the marriage bed.
Oh Boy I wish, oh how I wish some JW tell me my life style is not approved by the GB.
You know what I would tell them? I will not say in mixed company.

I became a Freemason , sing in the Church choir, gave blood and sing the National Anthem.
Holy smoke I went full blown "Worldly". No Paradise for me.

What a tough mob. In a way it may be good thing for S & L.
Who remember the movie "Good Morning Viet Nam" when R. William was speaking to
the guys in a convoy heading up north. He was asking their names and where they lived
in the states. They looked so young and so afraid, no idea what was ahead. He told them be careful
out there, what could be worst than that.

Deuteronomy 23;2 No Bastards may enter the church.
OK, so who in the hell can enter the church??? I'm sure a lot of those old guys had some kind
of defect in their eyes.
That's a God I would love to emulate, but today I would be know as bigot, racist in fact a Hitler..

"I work for a brother cleaning offices". I know of a brother who is a elder employed by
the school district as a supervisor because of his years in the janitor work and his
communication skills. Just a thought for you.

I slept in my car a few nights before I was able to get on my feet. I had family members
who were not JW, ask me to stay with them until I got on my feet. I lived in motels, worked
two jobs. As long as I have my health and single, I can do this. Divorced, lost my kids (to borg),
devastated. My health failed, where do I go from here. After two or three years I gain control
of my PTSD, extreme anxiety disorder and alcohol dependence, I got full custody of my 12 year old
son and my oldest son and his family left the borg. Looking back it wasn't easy but the experience
I wouldn't trade it for any thing.
Get out there and take a hold of life my friend, it can be beautiful.
