after reading posts on the learning from the great teacher, the part about gets playing with themselves each other makes the demons happy.
i wondered how many of us were scared to death as a youngster and even in our 20's 30's that the demons were going to attack us , in our house, furniture flying at us, if we strayed from the organization or once we left the org.
that they were waiting for us, just another scare tactic from the watchtower, what a bunch of bs.. any thoughts ??
I thought for awhile they were in my house..every little noise set my mind to thinking demons.....This was when my eyes were opening to all the WT lies and as we have all been taught demons attack us via our doubts...ahhhhhh.
Then it passed reason took over...why would a powerful spirit creature sneak around my house stepping on the occasional squeaky floorboard. Now I know it wasn't demons..it was ghosts...casper in fact..but he's a freindly ghost.
has anyone seen any publications which say santa is another name for satan...maybe the insight book?.
it was spouted at me on the weekend and i laughed..which you should never do to jw's as it gets their hair up.. .

No they didn't spout it as a joke..they said it was in the societies literature.....But I can't find it.
i had an uncomfortable experience yesterday.
i was in a barnes and noble bookstore when nature called, so i walk into the men's' room.
there are two stalls - one for wheelchair access, and one regular one.
It never hurts to ask nathan...it takes alot of guts to do that.
For me I usually have to go into the stall with my daughter when she has a pee and then I get her to wait while I use the urinal..sometimes thats not possible but I have found she asks all those numerous questions about my manhood everytime she catches a peek so I try to keep peeps to a minimum. When were in a stall you can usually sit so that its not a real peep show and for her she would rather look at me and talk then stare at the door a few inches from her face. My daughter is a real chatterbox and I'll tell you some of the questions she asks when I'm stuck in that stall with her must make my neighbours in the next stall blush, it does to me.

Bttt any help appreciated
i joined this forum a few months back and i'm just getting around to giving my personal story.
here goes: i was raised as a witness like many of you out there.
my mother was in the truth lie but my father was not.
Hi..please don't stay disheartened.....You sound like a wonderful girl.
You've made the right choice! Thanks for sharing your story..
BTW I've heard backstabbing gossip about sisters dresses being too tight or too short more than I can remember.
i just can't keep my mouth shut.... i was told on the weekend of a person who has been studying for a long time and finally made the commitment to be baptized.
how do they know this.....he shaved off his beard which he has had for forty years.
his beard covered a small growth on his neck and he always kept it nice and trim..looked great on him.. anyway i asked what publication points out that beards should not be worn...of course i know there are none specifically.

doctrines, people, elders, family, beliefs, is there a certain thing that convinces you they are wrong ???.
had a discussion with my mom the other day and she asked "how can you be so sure they are wrong ?".
i picked two topics that i had not talked to her about ( already said the pedophile, un, generation stuff.).
Truth is what it is...it does not change....Present truth is bullshit....
I could never accept how JW's attribute every good thing to Jah and every bad thing to Satan...everything.
Little things stick in your mind...At an asssembly when I was still a kid they gave the example of a man who killed his whole family and while in prison became a brother and then how Jah had accepted him. Even as a kid I thought this guy probably would have been put to death if he lived in bible times, he had committed the worst crime against God and humanity, yet to the people at that assembly he was ok now.
Its hard to imagine that they believe its worse to not accept all their teachings than to kill your family or that its on the same level as having premarital sex or smoking even.
hello to all my friends, .
the fifth estate will be rerunning their story on the problems within the jw faith on "sept 3 /03 at 9pm.".
i know that some of you missed it last january, so now you will have a chance to see the program, they will be following it with an update on my trial and how the jw's are coming after me for costs.
Hi Vicki
Do you know if they are going to include any of the recent events in the US like all the cases in California and the class action suits.

c'mon all you hockey fans...who do you think is gonna win it this year?
my prediction, as always, is the red wings.
we got the dominator back between the pipes and we lost sergei to the ducks...bah!
Aztec you truly are a gem...cute and you love hockey too...You are every Canadian males dream girl.
If you say you like fishing too I might have to take a cold shower
I have to root for the Canucks....They didn't hire anybody in the off season so well see.....They still require a little stronger defence I beleive or an outstanding goaltender...Cloutier is good but he's not outstanding.
