badolputtytat : I've had some time to think over what you asked. You likely won"t like this but I feel that since God is a spirit and we are flesh, we really have no concept of his actual being, nor should we wonder. Our place is here, by His allowing it and His is the whole universe and whatever else there is. Other than knowing man is made in his image, in that we can love, learn and participate in our choices, the only other concept I have is purity, joy and true love. I know He hears honest prayers and will be with those who follow His ways. His best example for us to understand would be Jesus' life on earth as a picture for us to try to do our best to copy ... that's it ... northern girl.

Big Tex : You sound like a real gentle man as your wife is a wonderful lady. Thanks for not being abrasive. I was surfing and found this site. I was intrigued by Poohs quest and decided to give her my five cents worth. Nothing more ... nothing less. Things kept piling on and here we are. I feel I have as much right here as any of the rest of you 'till I'm told differently by the owner. Take care ... northern girl.

Is a little constructive bantering going to get you all tied in a knot? I'm sure when Simon has had enough I'll get the boot. Haven't heard him complaining so why are you? You are here at his behest also ... northern girl.

refiners fire : Wow ... someone sure is a grouch !!!! Are you always so pleasant or just been saving it for me?
I don't think Simon started out here to be deceptive but since being df'd figures "why not?"

Sounds like a pretty sad situation around here but it really isn't. Recalling bad times can put a real pall on things. That's all in the past now and I look forward to much better days ... northern girl.
Thanks for the welcome, berylblue.

Nathan : Actually this unconditional acceptance has mostly been to bash me.
Compare this to giving up cigarettes ... no contest.
My husband was not a JW. Maybe you missed what I had mentioned ( I didn't tell the elders of the abuse ... no one else for that matter ... I wasn't even 20 years old at the time.)

Hi Nathan :
I began smoking to ease the pain of being abused by a alcoholic husband.
The elders at the time were extremely good to me ( I didn't tell them about the abuse ... lots of us don't)
I would welcome more than anything to have all the obligations you mentioned.
When I am reinstated I will most definitely defend the Truth ( I'm not really in a position to while I'm out.
I get my magazines from the elder who is looking into me being reinstated.
You wouldn't know any of my brothers.
Welcome accepted.

AlanF : I was about to thank you but now I wonder why. You just managed to play good_cop, bad-cop all by yourself. You can believe or not believe anything I say ... entirely up to you.
You are terribly mistaken to think I am not sincere. My biggest problem is not being able to take shunning and I plan to get over that .... real soon. As for all your reasoning about the JWs beliefs ... suffice to say I believe them ... northern girl.
