Self love
by Cath inis there anyone out there who remembers being taught by the wt that love of the self was sinful?
if so will you please point me to a piece of literature which contains that teaching, preferably a scan if possible.
i have a vague memory of hearing something along those lines as a child and don't know if it was part of jw teaching or just something my family taught us.

What "SIN" do elders respond to fastest?
by Dismembered in.
maybe it's just me but, it seem like "elders" respond extremely quickly to "sexual misconduct" as long as it does not involve their own family members.
true or false?

The Merry Widows/Widowers of Dubdum
by Room 215 inhi all,.
maybe this is a local phenomenon, but does it aver occur to you that jws whose mate dies often remarry in what society in general regards as an ``unseemly'' short time after the death of their spouses?
i guess the most prominent example of this is audrey knorr, who tied the knot a second time not long after ``pappy'' knorr was interred in 1977.. just wondering.

Thank you and goodbye.
by Cath ini have been coming to this forum since around september 2001 and although i haven't had much to say i have gained a lot by just coming here and reading.
i have laughed and cried and got really angry along with posters here and have enjoyed most of my time here.
now i am moving to the country to be with my daughter and her kids and i won't have internet access there which is a good thing because it will get me out from behind this screen.

Fight with daughter
by Cath ini don't post too often and this is really hard for me to do but i just have to vent about this.. i have had my answering machine take any incoming calls for the last couple of days because i am really not in the mood for talking to anyone apart from my daughters at this point in time, so i pick up only if it is one of them.. well i picked up tonight as it was my eldest and us being very close i always tell her what is going on in my life/head etc.
she is a mother herself but never was a jw as i swore i would never force that on my girls or anyone else.
she thanks me for that because her three children are free of fear and normal well adjusted kids.

I MAY HAVE HIT BOTTOM
by BONEZZ ini thought i'd hit it several times before...as i have been thru the divorce over the past couple of years...lost all my so-called friends...lost my belief in what i thought was the "truth"....and now my own loving daughter, being the good little dub she is has told me she doesn't want me to walk her down the aisle at her wedding.
she told me today at lunch.
i almost threw up.
