The last communication was well over a hundred years ago and it was: "YOU MORONS ARE ON YOUR OWN!"
Maybe they read stool samples. That would explain a few things.

Anybody here vegan?
by Dagney ini've been considering it for awhile strictly for just general overall health.
i don't take any meds, and would like to keep it that way for as long as i can.
i am a "all things in moderation " type of person but the more i read about excluding dairy and meat, the more i think about doing it.

Hi Dagney, I thought I drop in and look at the thread you mentioned today. Like I said the change has been easy for me. I'm never hungry. I eat whatever I want when I want and as much as I want and I losing weight and have more energy. I like cooking so it has been fun finding new things to make.
I'll email you or call you as soon as I get a chance either tomorrow or Thursday. In the mean time here are a couple of good sites:

Same old crap they were worried about when I left about 30 years ago. We're all going to die of old age before anything the Watchtower has predicted ever comes true.
But for your entertainment....the Apocalypse:

You rock Flipper. I respect people who say enough is enough and don't play games.
I was kind of like Troubled Mind. I left when I just couldn't take one more BS meeting. I left to keep my sanity.

That's pretty cool noni. At one time I couldn't see any point to facebook. I only got on it because my sister wanted me to but since being on it I've had some good experience. I stumbled on a woman (I'm friends with her xjw father) who I hadn't seen since she was a baby because I left the WT while she was still a baby. She was a witness up to few years ago but is now out and we are now friend on facebook.
I also had someone on this board contact me because she recognized my real name as someone she knew in her (and my) JW days when I had Randy Watters befriend me facebook. I'd seen her posts on this board but little did I know she was a friend of mine from about 30 years ago when I was a Jdub.

Thoughts on turning 65 today
by Terry intoday is my 65th birthday.. chances are you have no idea what that means.. would you like to know?
turning 65 can only be described using these two words:.
the first: anagnorisis the moment of critical discovery; the discovery of one's own identity or true character.

Did anything significant happen in 1934?
by Paralipomenon inlooking at the 607/587 bce issue, i was wondering if the bethel could spin some new light to avoid embarassment and buy themselves an extra 25 years or so.. if it was 1935, they could claim that the call to close the doors to heaven was actually the real date of jesus' invisible reign and tie up two embarassments with one flash of light.. best i could find though, nothing really important happended then.
anyone else with better jw historical records think of an "out" for them?.
once 2014 comes, they are in for a major explanation.

I'm sure that they would appreciate any help they can get but 1934 doesn't really buy them much time and they would still have to answer what Jesus has been doing for the past 75 plus years.
Every significant event that I can think of that would relate to them has long past its value for them to spin. The invention of the hot air balloon. The flush toilet. The barf bag..... we maybe the barf bag. When was that invented?
I think they're should consider themselves fortunate to have a fan base that will eat any $h*t they shovel into the feeding trough and view it as spiritual food.

My grandmother has died - All I am thinking about is the JW funeral...
by exjehovah inmy jw grandmother passed away last night after a long battle with alzhemers disease.
she suffered a lot at the end of her life, a shell of who she ounce was, so i am happy she is at peace.
as i mentioned my brother died a short three months ago.

Sorry to hear of your loss. And sorry you have to go through the JW funeral experience. I've only been to one since leaving. Mostly the same old crap but a little better than the ones I remember from the past.
Do you have someone that can attend with you so you don't have to go alone? If you are sure you will be treated rudely by the dubs I would consider not attending. If they can't be nice even at a funeral what it the point in attending?

I am now officially an Ex-JW!!!!
by Momma-Tossed-Me ini am now officially by being announced at congregation level that i am no longer one of jehovahs wihtnesses.
that news spread like wild fire and i was dropped by all jw's on facebook, which shows the level of control the borg has in this area.
what is interesting is there was no juducial committee.
