    First, let me say it is scary posting here for me. If my past self could see me now! I am a MS, been so for about 12 years. For the last few pressured to be an Elder. I have been having my own crisis, and have been disolusioned for about a year with the "truth" Seeing the way people are treated (Pharisees!!! Hello!) not to mention the disgusting scandels (UN etc). My wife has no idea, but fortunately is a typical R&F and has no problem missing meetings and service. I am in a really weird place right now,

    Welcome tresdecu! You both sound like hubby and me some years ago before I woke up like he did. You're in for the rollercoaster of your life!

    Thank you, scarred for life. (I hope you're not really scarred for life) By your screen name I assume you were a JW......and I'm so glad you escaped their clutches.

    Turkey- Isn't it great saying no because you don't give a sh*t about the consequences?

    Hi, im also an (ex)MS, and i too have just posted my first comment on here, and seems to me we both started investigating the 'truth' after being disheartend by the way people are treated. I am totally convinced now that this isnt the truth but the shunning and ignorance of people makes this a very difficult time, and im with u when u say you are stressed and sick to the stomach. I wish u all the best my dear bro! regards, dhand.

    Actually, I come up with the BEST excuses. Why, no, I can't handle the mikes 'cause I'm bad with names. :D

    I remember when it was such a spiritual privelege to handle the mics.I was always jealous of the guys they got to run around and I

    had to sit in my seat and pretend I was paying attention.I'd take the mic job,thats just me. You don't even have to make comments on the mics. at

    least thats what I remember?! LOL!
