  warning of a long boring post ahead.

  i feel like i need to vent my story out, as i feel quite helpless at the moment.. i'm 31 year old, married, father of toddler with another one on the way, due later this month.

  i've been serving as elder for about 4 years now in a south florida congregation.

  To be honest Punk I am all read out of exJW literature. I read COC which woke me up and CCMC to help me wake up my family. But for me personally I like reading things that are completely far removed from JW life. Sorry to say that, but there are plenty of forum members that would read your books

  Keep going strong with your projects

  Apostle Paul complex

  by Diogenesister in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  if you can, take the time to read this beautifulfully written piece on what its like to live as a gay, enforced celibate witness.

  the writer details experiences working for an organization that ostensibly lauds singleness, especially in the higher echelons and bethel , yet inevitability rewards the hard working singleton with a lonely old age and the "increasingly sinister " label of ' that weird single brother'.

  the author compares this outcome with that of " eunuch for the lord" paul pondering the silence on his later life and wondering whether he similarly died " alone, largely forgotten and desperately waiting for the paradise ".http://avoidjw.org/2016/01/apostle-paul-complex/.

  Aspeger's syndrome, ASD and Autism - How do you know if you have it?

  on another thread i was asked by fadetoblack about my asd.

  sorry ftb i didn't respond, but here is your post again and i will respond on this new thread.. i'm curious to know how you know you were born with asperger's syndrome.

  it seems to be extremely hard to clinically diagnose, but popular to self-diagnose.

  Thanks Lisa for your post. Very interesting, I have active Apsergers, I am extrovert to the extreme and say a do socially unacceptable things that embarrass others. The spectrum can also be about extremes to one end or the other and not understanding social cues.

  Hey Jacob,

  Thank for telling us the news. I am df'd and would have done things differently if I woke up before I was df'd. Why did you disassociate rather than fade?

  Thanks rebelfighter for your post. I also think that as it's a spectrum disorder some things are more challenging than others depending on the individual and sometimes it changes with circumstances. So sometimes it can be hard for a professional to always catch and might be overlooking the problems with diagnosis.

  I am SO tempted ! to join the FSM Church !

  by Phizzy in

  2. beliefs

  the netherlands has recognized the church of the flying spagetti monster as an official religion !!.

  i am so tempted to join it openly, and see what the reaction of the jw's is, surely they should df me for joining another religion?.

  but how silly would that make them look !

  What, you mean you are going to be involved in multiple religions and be polyreligious instead of loyal to one?
