"I just messed up"
by hillbilly ineven when you have good intentions, it is possible to make a complete wreck of the situation.
it is normal to cast about for something to blame, i.e., "the horse ducked his head.
" "i hit a pothole.

no meetings this week
by missy04 ini feel kind of silly posting next to you guys who were in the organization for much longer, like i know what i'm talking about or something, lol, i don't.. but i think it's really sad..all of these people, mostly really good people, who spend their whole lives or at least alot of it trying to do things..field service, studying, giving talks, giving up good jobs, ect.
for this religion.
i am really sad that i can't just save 'em from it.. i haven't been to any meetings this week and i think i finally might have the guts to tell them i'm done.. wow, it must have been realllllyyyy hard for all those who have family in the org.

Slip of the tongue and other embarrassments
by target inlove it when someone is trying to say something and the tongue chooses to rearrange the wording.
i think my favorite was one sunday a particular ms who had a thing for perfectionism was announcing the song to be sung "jehovah's happy people".
it came out "jehovah's happy peepee".

What Made Things Finally "Click" With You To Know This Was Not The Truth?
by minimus infor me it was the realization that there was no "faithful & discreet slave", that all the prophecies "proving" that jehovah's witnesses are the only religion approved by god is bogus and the realization that this is a "cult" and there is no real normal sense of love and affection in the "truth".

FEAR!! PANIC!! ALARM!!
by Terry ini use to be afraid of the dark.i would feel the ___presence__of unseen things.
creepy stuff.. but, when i became agnostic and left all things religious behind me a very strange side effect took place in my life.
just this: nothing makes me afraid anymore!.

Does the Bible scare anyone else here sometimes?
by missy04 inmaybe i'm just messed up, but i get really freaked out sometimes.
i can't understand the bible,.....in some places it seems like it's saying all you have to do is one or two things, then it seems like it's saying you have to do different things to be saved.... so many different people and religions have so many different takes on the bible.
i don't know which to beleive, and it scares me that if i beleived the wrong thing that i could go to hell, or just go to sleep forever as the witnesses say.

QUIRKS; what are yours?
by Terry innot everybody is quirky.
but, we all know people who are....really...really quirky.. in school you can call them nerds.
in society we can avoid them, make fun of them and laugh.. but, each of us have certain quirks.
