  Muslim Shopkeeper Murdered for Wishing Friends a Happy Easter on Twitter

  by cofty in

  2. current

  horrible crime in glasgow on thursday evening when a well loved muslim shop keeper asad shah was stabbed to death by at least one other muslim man.

  mohammad faisal, a family friend, said a bearded muslim wearing a long religious robe entered mr shah’s shop and spoke to him in his native language before stabbing him in the head with a kitchen knife.. mr shah had posted the twitter message ‘good friday and a very happy easter, especially to my beloved christian nation’.

  residents of shawlands in glasgow say he was well respected and had been known to hand out christmas cards to neighbours despite being of a different faith.. hundreds have turned out in a vigil near the crime scene....

  Very sad story..... I bet his family are suffering very much.

  He seems like a great example for others to follow....it's so very sad he lost his life for being nice.

  Be nice everyone

  who cares?.

  the first time i was in distress with the watchtower, i was fortunate to find this place.

  my ego thought ,i was somehow special, that my posts were reaching a worldwide audience, and most of all i felt at ease, maybe home is a better word.

  I am here after about three years and have seen posters come and go. A few I have met in person and truly are great friends.

  It's a shame some have left though and I feel the personality of the site has changed over the years too.

  I feel good about supporting others and sharing my experiences.

  Need way more sex in a relationship and still serve Jehovah

  i have been disfellowshipped twice, and currently am- both times for sex.

  i have a high need for sex in my relationship, and after 3 marriages, keep not finding that need in the other person.

  so, i end up going out of the organization looking for it.

  Welcome to the board. You seem very caring and thoughtful. The best thing you can do right now is tell her how well she thinks for herself and how good she is at making decisions.

  This will help her support herself and leave her family home when she is stable. You can also help her make future plans.

  Take care

  Excellent Conversation At Literature Trolley

  by cofty in

  2. experiences

  yesterday my wife and i enjoyed one of our regular days out at edinburgh - movie, lunch, walk, meal etc.. in the late afternoon while mrs cofty went shopping i had an hour at the excellent museum of scotland and arranged to meet up outside the national gallery on princes street.

  on my way back i saw the jw trolley was at the usual spot on the royal mile.

  there was an older man and a young woman standing well back trying hard to look inconspicuous.

  I get you're point Cofty, but are you really trying to help him as an individual the way you helped me and many others on this site.

  You are very good at debate, but is winning the argument the best way to wake people up?

  The fact you showed me how much you cared about me got me out the WT, not the fact that a God does not exist, because I still believe in God.

  Show them how much you care, not how much you know.

  NEW BLOOD CARD w/ FORCED COMPLIANCE also LEGALISM

  by apocalypse in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have looked around and i don't see this covered, so i am starting a thread.. 1) the new "blood card" goes beyond being just a "blood card".. 2) a new edict concerning compliance.. pay attention to the changes.. first, the new card is termed "advance decision to refuse specified medical treatment".

  the big change with the card itself is that it includes an 'override' of your "power of attorney".

  this is huge.

  I have read the whole thread and understand the worry that some people have and also understand the way some have strategies not to comply.

  I have worries. My ex has custody of my son, and he does things that are against the rules but also he won't break other rules. For example he won't remarry as neither of us have committed adultery and he has been warned against it.

  I don't know how seriously he would take this, and how my son who is 14 and awake will take it. He is very adamant about not going to meetings or the memorial or assemblies. Also he is not an unbaptised publisher and doesn't go door to door. So in reality I am hoping that the elders view him as a non witness and will leave him be, but his dad might be controlling in that aspect.

  This does indeed concern me.

  Any other teenagers on here?

  by BlackWolf in

  2. friends

  i'm 16 and it seems like most the people on this forum are adults.

  i would think since most teenagers have tablets/smartphones there would be more on here but maybe not?

  it would be nice to meet some other young people.

  My son is 14 and he might be interested in getting an account.....he has similar circumstances to you and you both might be able to support one another

  I would rather be in the JW cult than the ex-jw cult

  by questioningmyfaith in

  2. friends

  i have posted one other time on this website.

  just for the mere fact that i wasn't anger and bitter and ready to declare the gb the sociopathic criminals that so many here ascribe to, my initial question digressed to bickering over ad hominem attacks against the gb and not my beliefs that i'm questioning.

  some did give me some help on my questions.

  I suppose people come and go on this site.....some with bold statements others just die off.

  With different people you get a different site. I have found it's very different here from when I first came.

  But I am still here, trying to support others who need my support and ranting about my problems when I need to rant.

  i am just venting because my sister has put on facebook that i am no longer "in the truth"!

  i have kept a very low profile for years and have silently faded.

  many witnesses i have bumped into are very friendly towards me, some from other congregations may not even be aware that i dont go anymore.
