Have you ever wanted to punch a Circuit Overseer or his wife?
by Nellie ini was reading another post about a "dear old circuit overseers wife" and it immediately brought back to mind an experience i had with one that wasn't so dear at all .
.. i "knew" this woman before she went into the circuit work with her husband.
granted, i didn't know her well - but i had moved into her congregation a few weeks before she and her husband left to go into the circuit work.

Christianity, Satan & Halloween
by Nellie inforget about being a witness - i never, ever understood how mainstream christian people could justify participating in a celebration that is so overtly satanic.
while i recognize the ability to dress up in non-satanic costumes, the participation aspect bothers me.
of course, now, my kids want to trick or treat, but i just can't bring myself to say "yes.

Greetings from Post-Wilma Survivor in Florida
by Nellie inhey all - glad to be back .
in case you've been wondering (and since i haven't been on - no power obviously), the damage down here in fort lauderdale is quite extensive.
i've been hearing from others that the media has been downplaying the severity of the the hit - but for those of us going through it, it was quite impressive.

CoC Review - "Power Corrupts, Ultimate Power Corrupts Ultimately"
by Nellie ini just finished reading crisis of conscience.
i don't know if it was a record or anything, but i just received it the other day and i'm finished!
my criticisms - surely brother franz knows who spearheaded the attacks he so eloquently discusses in his book, both the witchhunt against him personally and those he witnessed during the years.

NYC Witnesses vs. others
by Nellie inrather than hijack another thread, i thought about this ..... when you live in ny and having a bethelite in your congregation is commonplace - bethel, the gb, cos, etc.
don't have that same "mysticism" or "it factor" that they have in other parts of the country.
i grew up with these people, knew many of them and guess what - they're just people!.

The Blue Pill?
by Nellie init can't all be wrong, can it?
put the principles aside - is everything we learned and believed wrong?
what is the armageddon the bible talks about?

Halloween - Are you celebrating?
by Nellie in.
of all the holidays that witnesses shun, this was the one i could understand most.
but after leaving the organization, how do you feel about it now?
