catholic funeral today
by jaffacake inmy dear sister in law died last week age 39 leaving 3 kids (16, 12 and 5).
we're very close and the youngest kids are staying with us, off and on, for a while.
got to know the catholic priest who has been wonderful and made all the difference to helping her accept what was happening.

by supersonic inwell ive just registered with the site and not sure what to make of it.
i feel i shouldn't be here.... anyway i'm just a normal 17 year old lad from the uk who is a bit confused at the minute.
i want nothing more than to go out and enjoy myself with my mates in the world but it proves difficult.

How many people have you SAVED from the JWs?
by kid-A inok, maybe the word "saved" is inappropriate.... in my case, i would have to count three.
two of my best friends from when i was growing up who initially resisted my questions and apostate leanings but are now free of the borg and have confided it was our conversations that led to their de-programming.
and, my sister, through pretty much the same circumstances.

Cancer has taken way to many people out of my life, how about yours?
by free2beme inrecently a female friend of mine was diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
she is 22, and has a long fight ahead of her.
in my 35 years of this life, if there was a year book that showed all the friends and family members that i have known, far to many would have a note saying "died from cancer, on such and such date.

Something significant changed in the WTS in 1984... but what was it???
by Elsewhere inlooking at this chart i can't help but notice that pre-1984 the growth statistics were extremely erratic.
then, all of the sudden in 1984 the growth statistics calmed down and have ever since fallowed a much more stable trend.
it's almost a straight line after 1984.. so what happened?

religion... science...atheism...religion
by jaffacake insomeone on a recent thread observed that jwism seems to be a route to atheism.
but many other religions fail people too after which atheism appears to be the most plausible answer.
driving to work last week i heard thought for the day on my car radio, which made a link between religion & atheism.
