Marriage Proposal.
by Englishman ini just found out today that my jw mum has turned down a proposal of marriage for the fourth time.
none of the proposals were from the same guy either, although all 4 were jw's.
i'm also told that mum's considered quite a dish for an octogenarian.. however, i'm also reliably informed that one of the main reasons for her refusals is because of the df'd "state" of my kid brother and myself.. see, she's considered a mature dub, one of the elite, and she also gets her own quiet ration of new light.

finally reading "Crisis of Conscience"
by glenwoodswoman ini never had the desire to read the book in all the years i have been "liberated".
joining this board got me curious about the book and i am finally reading it....and i am blown away by it!.
i left for reasons of my own- the society and i could not agree on who should run my life- them or me-i always felt that this life style works for some people, but not for me.. now that i am reading coc, i see the whole issue in a much bigger light!

Wicca information...
by Quentin inmy daughter renee wishes to practice wicca, as she feels it is where she needs to be spiritually.
this is serious business for herit is not a whim, or passing fancy.
she did some internet research and began observing some of the things she found: phases of the moon, burning certain candles for various situations and so forth.
