  Reverse Shunning

  by exwhyzee in

  2. bible

  someting happened yesterday that i thought might be noteworty enough to relate to you here.. mrs. eyz and i were invited to my new boss's home for his annual end of summer party.

  it's a pretty big deal....his is a name known locally (i'll call him j.r.) a really nice interesting guy who's held a number of high level and politically connected jobs.

  there was to be music, dancing, wine and reprotedly lots of well dressed, well educated, well to do and influential people (oh yes...and us) in attendance.. anyway we thought we'd make an occasion out of it and got ourselves spiffed up which involved new outfits and extra mirror time before we left home.

  What a great uplifting story, an example for all of us in how to take your dignity back and let them be the underdog. Well done!

  Dubs - Paradoxes From Hell

  by Farkel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  dubs - paradoxes from hell.

  jesus said his yoke was kindly and light.. dubs brag their religion is the "hardest religion in the world.".

  the bible tells children to honor their parents.. the wts tells children to betray their parents.. if dubs really live in a "spiritual paradise," why do their lives have to be threatened to stay in it?.

  here is my best jesus story .

  .. i lived in some apartments some years back.. the apartments were a kind of "retirement" atmosphere of ancient conviviality.. once a week there would be a coffee and doughnuts get-together so you would know who your neighbors were.. well .

  .. i went to one and didn't go for month or so.

  In the basis they often had good material, but the way they presented it was too much for me. And useless to show to still in JW's.

  It's my birthday today

  by Bruja-del-Sol in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ... but most of my new (post jw) friends either don't know my birth date (if people don't specifically ask i won't tell them), or they are 2500 kilometers away in the netherlands... so all that's left to celebrate with me are my hubby, the two doggies, cat and my two rabbits... mixed feelings, i miss my friends and family around and haven't found friends in spain yet.

  luckily our daughter will visit us the end of the month... and yesterday we've found a new rental house and we're moving into it next month already!

  i'm thrilled and really looking forward to it, then we will finally be able to let all the rest of our belongings come to spain (2/3 of our stuff is stored in the netherlands).. so with this in mind, i'll just say 'happy birthday to me' and will enjoy my third birthday in espana .

  How old were you when baptized?

  by Coded Logic in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was baptized at the age of 11. like most of us, my commitment wasnt to honor god but rather i was gang pressed into the service of the wtbts.

  and, at such a young age, it was impossible for me to appreciate the enormity of my actions.

  honestly, how could i possibly have known any better?

  3rd generation born in, dunked age 16 because my dad sent my worldly boyfriend away and I felt that by getting baptized I didn't lose my love for nothing. Another reason was that most of the kids my age would be baptized that same assembly, so I hoped that they would finally accept me... but they didn't. A year and a half later, age 18, I was married to an elder's son, finally away from home.

  The most idiotic thing my dad said after I got divorced and DF'd at age 33: "I can understand that when you get married at such young age, it's possible you've made a wrong choice and want to change it. But I cannot understand that you've left Jehovah".... I was even younger when I got dunked, why can't it be possible to rethink such a decision made at a way too young age???

  Like Oubliette always says: "Let's review: It's a cult!"

  It had a happy ending after all, since I found my long lost boyfriend after nearly 18 years and we're happily married now
