7 a second point that we can draw from peter's words is that jehovah is patient because he desires all to attain to repentance.
"consider the patience of our lord as salvation," wrote peter to fellow christians.
before I go to the meeting I always like to read your review. It helps save my sanity a little.
Same Here! But i did not get to is till after my meeting; no biggie-I worked on my term paper for lit class instead
Ah yes, patience patience patience. Sheesh Brooklyn! Haven't we heard enough?

By the way: What the heck is a CARROT??!!
so it's been five months that i've been on jwd and i've made a lot of progress.
first i want to thank everyone, wholeheartedly, for the encouragement i've recieved here.
when i first posted i was still an ms, and being used in the cong.
Well it depends on wether or not you can handle there "freak out" if you choose to D'A yourself. Do you think over time they will somewhat "get over it" and get used to the fact that you aren't going to meetings anymore? (this would apply to fading also) or would it be a never-ending battle?
If it would then its basically a damned if you do damned if you don't scenario. Although in this case maybe fading would be best because it would be less extreme. Then again, its obvious your wife still has the notion you are planning on coming back. What have you told her? You had to of given her some reason as to why all your suits are collecting dust in your closet?
P.S What the hell is a conniption?
i was having lunch with my jw friend this past week and he started talking about not being able to think as clearly as he could in the past.
i just wanted to scream out "it's that f-cking wt literature that's numbing your brain," but i kept cool.
i told him he needs to exercise his brain, that it's like a muscle - use it or lose it.
I just wanted to scream out "it's that f-cking WT literature that's numbing your brain,"
Couldn't of said it better myself! Dubs don't understand the meaning of common sense and logic unless they look it up in a bond volume first.

Hmmm..this is a question that I battle with so I am interested in what others will have to say about this. Of course each situation is different and fading is a lot easier for those who may live alone or whatnot. Can one be D'F if they express their personal views about how they really feel? Nah, I guess you would have to say something rather blunt against the WT in order for that to happen right? WoW, so you were an MS? Very interesting. Good luck!
well, i was dating this guy and its been a long time since i have even been with anyone that i thought was worthwhile.
i've been focusing on other things and with everything else going on with trying to gain my independance i just have not wanted to get caught up.
anyways, how dare the guy i was seeing call the whole jw mind-cult issue "stupid" when i tried to explain to him why i am the way i am (awful social skills, the simple excitement from just being around a new scene, etc.
In reference to MsMcDucket's response, actually he does not believe in God, well not God god but Allah or something or other. Come to think of it, it seems I am doing what I have promised myself I would not do anymore and that is rely on someone else to basically give me a pat on the back and say 'everything's gonna be okay' when I should be doing that on my own. *sigh*

Everyone makes a valid point (even you John Doe ) Well, I'm heading off to bed and we'll see if the little douchbag calls..then I'll apoligize and explain to him all about my Life as Cult Member: The Untold Story
ok, so remember this guy: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/104535/1.ashx ?.
brief overview... black college professor / lawyer, recently came in the truth... yadda yadda.. well, i worked with him out in service, and we were talking about mormanism, and he said that he knew mormanism was wrong because they once taught that black folks couldnt go to heaven, but then they magically changed and said they could.
so then i asked him how he felt about the society's old stance on black people.
