Broken Heart
by jillbedford inmy almost 17 year old daughter left to stay with her dad last thursday.
this is the second time she has left due to my strict rules, like 10p school day curfue, get to school on time, keep your grades above a c. she has not kept to my rules, so as a consequence i told her this last wednesday night she has lost driving priviledges of the car i gave her on her 16th birthday.

This board is not for me.
by Wafe inwhen i came to this board, i thought that it was for encouragement amoung people who had been treated badly by the wtbts, i did not understand that people were going to come here and bash god, his son and the bible.
i could understand some embitterment over religion but some of you people are down right insulting.
not to mention the fact that i have tried to contact others on the board and have had my messages ignored.. .

Wafe, people will be people, witnesses or not. I have never nor will I ever change my mind about my belief in a Creator. If no one likes it, tough luck!!!! Nobody puts food on my table except me.
You will have those who will stand up for their beliefs and some will not. Stick to your guns There are so many things beyond our control and we MUST submit ourselves to these (beyond) things whether we like it or not.
Continue to enjoy and make the most of your life!!! Hang in there.

Weird Watchtower article, Russell's grave worship in the background
by needproof inso just about everybody here knows that russell had some sort of obsession with the pyramids, and his gravestone serves as that embarassing reminder to his false prophecy, shaped like a pyramid itself.
and this is why i found this image on a awake!
magazine of 2005 quite disturbing.

Also, why is there a pyramid on the back side of an American one dollar bill? Is someone telling us something or is it a 'message' or a 'code' to those belonging to a secret society?

Does Knowing the Truth Make you a Happier person?
by gumby inmany of us who were once jehovah's witnesses had a measure of happiness in our lives.
for me, i had a hope in the future, i had answers as to why we are all here, i believed in a loving god who looked after me and cared about me, i had answers to all of lifes big questions.. when i found out the truth about the witnesses, i was lost in a great big world and now had no answers other than the fact that what i once believed was "the truth" in actuality wasn't the truth.i now had to start all over in my search for truth.
for me, it wasn't long before i found what i thought was the truth since i always believed in the bible.

Howdy Gumby. For me, I'm content. I've always believed in a Creator, when it comes to putting faith in people, forget it! I do not push my belief of a Creator on others, I consider it a personal matter.
View and review the book of Eccl. Is everything really vanity?

CAN YOU IDENTIFY YOUR EMOTIONS accurately???
by Terry inmany people don't know why they "feel" what they feel.
they fall in love with the wrong person.
they cry unexpectedly.

I will once again repeated what I have said over and over again about the witnesses, they are "emotional misfits". I don't need a long drawn out picture about their emotional state.
