spiritualism
by Ellie in.
can i just ask, has anyone ever had any bad experience after buying anything from a spiritualist type shop?.
i ask because today i walked past a shop in my town that sells crystals and things and they do tarrot and that kind of thing, i picked up enough courage to go in to have a look and i saw this lovely fairy candle holder, i really liked it but i am a bit afraid to buy it as i guess i've had it drummed in to me that those things are channels for demons.

I have now felt all the tension drain away!
by AK - Jeff inwe finished franz' books just about 18 months back - and that nailed the lid shut on the watchtower coffin for wifey and i. but i just noticed in the last few weeks that i am starting to feel 'normal' - that is all the tension is gone now.
no guilt nagging in the back of my head, no concerns about being found out [we faded out].
as if it took 18 months to get the mind free and start the process of getting on with it!

Dad (elder) called yesterday.
by Es inhi all.... i have not spoken nor seen my dad for about 3months now after he would not allow me to borrow cds for my up and coming wedding to a "worldy guy" because borrowing his cds means he would be supporting my mariage.
even tho the relationship between my mum and i is now strained as a result she still keeps in contact and suggested that we all meet at the shops one day for lunch so dad could see my son.
i agreed as i felt it would be nice for my son to see his pop again...but also was a little upset as dad hasnt gone out of his way to see my son.

Welcome, Ellie!
by cruzanheart injust thought i'd give you a formal jwd "welcome"!!!
i'm glad you found the board and feel better (though probably a little cross-eyed) after reading the board all day.
it's a wonderful feeling to know that you are not alone.

Bloody disgraceful behaviour of JWs!!!!
by Gill ini think that this week i may have seriously reached the end of my tether completely with jehovah's witness, or those idiots that claim that they're the ones that are only good enough to live forever in god's new system and the rest of us are bird food!.
i have posted a couple of times this week about the horrible things that have happened to my husband's grandfather due to his money grabbing, jw daughter and that was all bad enough.. my eldest son, is now carrying on a sexual relationship with a regular full time pioneer and is staying around her house while her parents are on holiday.
i'm not happy with my son either by the way but at least he's not claiming to be anything he isn't.

What did they all do on "worldly holidays" when you were home alone?
by LongHairGal ini always hated being alone on thanksgiving or christmas.
what bothered me was that if it were known you accepted an invitation by relatives it was frowned upon.
but what got to me was this: is god more pleased that i am home looking at four walls alone rather than being over somebody's house??

I feel like a leper
by Wild_Thing ini certainly have had my share of jw stupidity for the day ... and of my family's stupidity today.
two things happened ... both completely unrelated.
as a little background, i "faded" from the witnesses almost five years ago.
