When we quit, I was the target of most of the calls and phone calls. In their warped way maybe they thought that they could circumvent the "head of the household" and get me to go against him. Maybe they thought I'd be more sympathetic, or guilty? I dunno, didn't work. LOL!

What is your favorite WT quotation?
by AliveinChrist ingreetings group.
i was just reading over some old literature and found some amazing quotes made by the watchtower; i think my head really hurts now.

The one that says reading the Awake is equivalent to a college education.

Meeting a poster
by purplesofa ini want to tell everyone what a joy it was to meet dantheman over the weekend.. i have never felt more comfortable with who i am.
there certainly is an unspoken understanding amongst people that have come away from the jw experiance.
in particular i think we find it difficult to be mean and judgemental to each other.. an unconditional love that we all crave.

Did Masonic Judges Sabotage Lawrences Hughes Case To Protect The WT?
by Gumbley inmost people who are familiar with how the system works, know that most judges are masons.
that is how you get to the next level, by being initiated into the 32 or 33rd degree of freemasonry.
were the masonic judges dealing with lawrence hughes attempt to sue the watchtower acting in accordance with masonic law to protect the best interest of the brotherhood?

Evil plan or slip-back to brainsuck? :(
by merfi ini da'd in march.
i've done enough research and know enough about the org to know that i could never never believe that crap again.
i doubt the bible... i despise the label of "religion" in general and have found such wonderful freedom in my... freedom.

If you were resented and picked on by the elders, some of whom may have personal issues with you, how do you know you will be able to fade after being reinstated, without them coming after you again, or at least watching you constantly for a slip-up? And also, why are you so sure that it would only be a year? I dunno, only you can decide if it would be good for you to do it or not. I say, try to hook up with some friends outside of the Org first and see how that goes.

Her friend is on her way to being DF'd

PS: you are wise not to fall into the trap of competing with Gracy. That would be a serious wedge in your relationship, even if you did "win."

From all appearances, Gracy and Lynda have an extremely co-dependent relationship. Now that Lynda is df'd, Gracy is using it as competition with kgav8r, by letting Lynda drag her down and get her disfellowshipped. I do NOT see this as a "sticking by her friend" situation, and as it plays out, seems like Gracy will be laying on the guilt trip. "You got me disfellowshipped, this never would have happened if you had given up your bf, now you have to help me get reinstated, by doing it with me, and that means giving up your bf."
Is that what you mean kgav8r? Either way, I am sorry for you. Gracy and Lynda don't seem to be healthy for each other, no matter how devoted to each other they are. And their relationship muddies the waters, so it seems like you may not have an opportunity to help Lynda get out of the Org intact, because of the developing situation with Gracy's possible df'ing, and the confusion and guilt that is going to create with Lynda. :( -

Don't Like Your Avatar, Don't Like You!
by bigmouth insome time ago i attracted some really agressive responses that surprised me because i had no intention of offending so i had to learn a lot about how to word things on this forum, smiley faces etc so others would know i was pulling their leg, but i oftened wondered if a posters nickname or avatar puts you off instantly??
you know, first impressions.
i would think someone like satanus or mouthy would be intimidating but miss peaches was as nice as pie and this thinking might reflect how i would reply.
