  since being out mentally and missing meetings my children mention people from the hall and i cant help but feel bad that they are missing the association.

  my daughters are 4 and 2 and we live in a small town with not a whole lot to do.

  what activities did you do with your kids?

  Hi Blondie, You made me laugh. Certainly. They are so morally upright, of course, would tell the truth about participation in child abuse. (sarcasm)

  Those poor unsupecting JW children

  i am so happy to be out of the cult.

  i would never go back!

  i don't know some still could accept this religion, be here, regularly and not just get out..

  It was very hard to leave OZ and enter the into the unknown. It felt floundering for quite a while, but I knew it was the ethical thing to do. Contentment and happiness is worth the journey.

  Does this mean that the C.O. has access to the abuser database and check the name before appointment?

  Or does he just pick any brown-noser that he chooses?

  Hey....where's my invitiation ???

  i was in my company truck again today, pulled over to the side of the road in a neighborhood, doing some measuring and looking for some survey markers.. a group of jw's were working their way down the street toward me.

  the 2 middle aged ladies were smartly dressed, one had brightly colored highly styled auburn hair and was wearing large noticeable jewlry.

  the brother was late 50's hispanic also smartly dressed in a black top coat and seemed like he might be elder material.

  Great story! It's always amusing to get a little laugh in. But they didn't get it, did they? Humor and field service do not usually go hand in hand. Thanks for posting.

  I know that in years past they had an official designated travel agency (usually ran by jdubs) but heard they discontinued using professional services. Who is arranging yhe ground tours etc and getting paid? Is the WT now in the tour business?

  i don't know if this was mentioned but i spoke with a jw from atlanta, georgia that informed me that the great gb has approved jw auditions.. yes, you read that right!

  now the jw's will have their own jw idol, jw voice, and dancing with jw stars, lol.. they are using an assembly hall in atlanta and jw's from all over are auditioning from 8am till 6pm.. supposedly the idea is to have live entertainment for the delegates traveling from overseas for the international conventions.. he said they have had jw's who can play all the hits from the beatles, play merengue, salsa, sing, dance, etc.. the gb is trying hard to make their cult look normal.. some of the questions this rises are,.

  will it work?

  Another stream of income? Well if they found good talent and the gb got them under contract.....another side business...just sayin......With the way things are getting more bizarre every day nothing would shock me.

  i know there are some here that are going through some tough times.

  some of you do not believe in god.

  some are not sure.. i was told recently by a friend to pray to god for help and he would comfort me.. my first impulse is to pray.
