CORRECT ME IF AM WRONG!
by tresbella ini just stumbled on something at the bookstudy last week!
o.k as you all know we are studying the draw close to god book and in chapter 15: "jesus sets justice in the earth" read paragraph 10 on page 152 and tell me if you do not see a correlation: (and i quote)
the religious leaders buried god's law under a mass of man-made rules and regualtions.

My wife has joined me in leaving the Watchtower!!!
by AlmostAtheist ini had posted a few times since my awakening asking how best to talk to my wife about my new take on things.

ANYONE KNOW A GOOD THERAPIST?
by tresbella ino.k, so i have major issues people.
issues with my low-self esteem, issues with my previous abusive relationship that i once blamed on the fact that i deserved for sinning,while dating a non wiittness.
issues with the control the society has had on me and the control they instilled onto my parents to have on me way before i even knew better and i was wondering if anyone knew of any sites or possible online therapists that specialize in helping former jw's or people like me who are still young and live at home and so therefore have no choice but to live that "double life.

No Trespassing!! Breaking news for local JW's.
by Mulan inthis week at the book study, at all congregations in the u.s., a letter was read saying if you go to a house or property with a "no trespassing" sign, you must not enter, or knock on the door.
you have to leave immediately.
a sign saying "no solicitors" is too ambiguous, and they are to use their own judgment, and don't have to knock.
