Can you even stomach the name "Jehovah"?
by logansrun ini can't.
in the few times i have prayed since leaving the dubs i notice i catch myself -- "dear heavenly god jeh----......" there's just so much emotional baggage connected to the name.
i wish to leave it behind altogether.. b.

I wondered why I was not at ease being a Witness.
by PinTail ini wondered why i was not at ease being a witness till i learned what a cult is from many sorces, and stopped being so scared from day to day what god will do to me.
i am still scared of what he will do to me from being raised a witness, its weird they did not teach a firey hell, but they put the same kind of fear in me.
everytime some national problem comes along i freek, even when i no longer go to them meetings or read the tower.

It hit the fan tonite...
by beaker ini picked up my kids from my ex (still jw) tonite.
she wanted to come and get them back off me on sunday morning so she could take the meeting and every sunday meeting.
of course i wasn't going to agree to that so she said that she wanted them every second weekend so they could go to the meeting.

Do you lie about your age in your profile???
by frankiespeakin inwe all have to be careful about how much information we give out over the net,,it is wise and prudent in some areas,, but what about age???.
now i know many women don't like to admit they are over 29 what do you think is the percentage of correct profiles in reguards to age??.
this is private information and i don't want this to be a prying type of thread just reasonable discussion.

Where would we be now????
by beaker inthe wts has always maintained that given "the issue of universal sovereignty" makind has been allowed to prove whether he can sucessfully rule himself.
that's why we have so much pain and suffering in the world.
but has mankind been given a fair chance to prove that he can run things without god?.

JWs gladly benefit from war yet refuse to honour the dead
by catlady inas i learn more about the borg i am continually shocked by what i discover.
i knew early on that they were pacifists but i had no idea that this included not honouring (or dishonouring) those that have died under war conditions.
i find it so hypocritical that the dubs are quite happy to benefit from the principles (ie freedom, liberty, justice, etc) that these men & women fought for & yet refuse to pay tribute to them.

Just thought I'd introduce myself, finally!
by TrailBlazer04 ini was never "in" the wts, but my husband's x-wife and children are jw.
he never was...it's a long story, but between the "religion" and other stuff, she's managed to inflict so much damage and pain on him that at one point he was suicidal...so much for "christian love", ya know?.
looking forward to talking more, if that's ok with everybody!.
