Is there a transcript of this show? I'm on dial up right now, and am having probs
listening to it!
what happened in bonham, texas?
: the body of elders and the majority of the congregation decided to leave the watch tower organization.
and with that, they took the kingdom hall.

i am not sure if this is some kind of abuse, child abuse maybe?.
there is a case where a daughter is being "tormented" (as she describes) by her mother because she is slacking in her spiritual activities.
it has been increasing and she is deeply disturbed by it.
You mentioned she was being "threatened" with abuse....is this child here in the US??
Like jamie asked, where is the father?
How old is the child?
so, i am officially disassociated, am working toward my ged and higher education with full cooperation of my mother, and thankfully have the most part of my life ahead of me.
(narcissistic claps inserted here).. .
anyways, hello to those of whom i haven't met or spoken to yet .
We have people in st louis and KC, so....maybe we can get one going here...
I'd be willing to drive either way!!
I'm glad to hear ur mom isn't shunning you!!
My sisters would come if it was here....in the middle!
but damm it can be tough on the outside!!
!.....hi old friends....it would be sooooo much easier if you work for a company...with normal people around you....but damm if you have your own biz for thirty years with five jw employees out of 15 that pretty much run your company.....well just crap!!
!....anyhwho.....good luck to all moving on....it can be a bitch...but it is worth it....and damm divorce is a bitch...and so is settlement...and so is fukkin alimony!!!!!!
glad to see you posting! been wondering how u were!!
BTW....i'm pretty sure you spent more than 3 hours a day here, sometimes! LOL
luvs ya!
shelley
shamus i miss you-.
cagey you need to come back- we've got a poster challenging another to a smackdown.
i think we need a real cage fighter here!.
Monkey man is busy with our werewolf game....any of u are invited to play the next one!
He's still giving kisses and ripping off faces!! LOL
not sex.
my sister is taking care of the sex and condoms talk, thank goodness.. my only nephew (and likely the closest i will get to having a kid) turns 16 next month.
his mom is inactive, doesn't know if she is going back.
Talk to him about what he sees in his future. That should give you an idea of what he
believes! Is he involved in any school activities? That's a conversation hard to plan...
my father was a cop for 30+yrs.
he was a tuff and ruff cop.
his sence of humor was awsome.
I am sorry to hear this. I have been a nurse for years, too...and have taken extra good
care of alot of those who have served the public...Is he on any medication to slow it down?
Make sure you take care of yourself, too. There are good support boards for caregivers, and
family of those suffering from this cruel disease. You aren't alone, so don't carry the burden alone.
Let us know what we can do! Vent, cry, rant...whatever you need.
Life as come full circle for your family, and that's not easy!!
i tried to get ahold of you last week!
spent a couple days in kc..... met up with one ex jw....will be back there again next week!.

at our service meeting it was announced that there is a change in the manner in which magazines are now to be delivered to the congregations.. up until now, magazines were sent to each kingdom hall via ups.
in years past magazines were sent to each congregation po's home address via ups.. going forward, magazines will be sent only as far as the assembly hall.
it is the responsibility of each kingdom hall to send brother(s) twice a month to drive out there, pick up the magazines, and return.. this of course saves a little bit of money for the society - shipping larger packages to fewer addresses will cost less.. however, what about the expense to the local congregations?.
from here in mid mo...it's 122 miles to the st louis convention center...(that i was there
when it was built)....there are alot of congregations around here that makes it even further.
I can see it now at the end of a service meeting..."brothers and sisters..we need donations
to get our spiritual food" (insert puke).....they will make money going to get them!!
so some background -- i have two jw relatives.
my grandma is something like 85 yrs old and has been a jw for most of her life.
she pretty much believes everything from the wt and has dedicated her life to it.
but is that how it is here in the US????
where's blondie when we need her? or mary???
