DOES ANYONE STILL NOT CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS???
by chuckyy injust wondering if anyone still does not celebrate xmas since leaving jws.....or like me do you think"to hell with it", and join in the festivities.

elders and alcohol
by chuckyy inwhen i was an elder most of the rest of the body drank like fish, some would regularly get drunk and it was always ignored.
then these very same elders would reprove a young lad for excessive drinking!

striking similarities to the pharisees?
by chuckyy inis it just me or do jw elders seem to parallel the pharisses of christs day?
certainly, the excessive laws (written and oral), are a heavy burden for all jws, impossible to keep, leading to feelings of guilt.
the elders enforce these laws , and, just like the pharisees of christs day, render these laws as having greater importance than mercy/love.

MY LITTLE GIRLS HEART PROBLEM
by chuckyy ini am very angry at this time.. i took my 7 yr old little girl to the hospital yesterday....she has had heart problems since birth.
i explained that we were no longer jw,s and would accept blood if necessary during open heart surgery.
the doctor told me that if that was the case, the operation must proceed without delay.
