Yay!
Merry Christmas.....

Anyone here a vegetarian?
by crownboy inhow many of you guys are vegetarians?
in my personal experience, i've only known of two jw vegetarians, and both were so for health reasons.
so i'd like to see how the x-jw community compares.

ConnieLynn
Yes, vegetarian, but recently converted. My husband & I both converted for health reasons. I can tell a HUGE difference in how I feel too. I don't think I knew any vegetarian JW's in my day.

President Bush's speech
by Mulan ini wanted to hear the president's speech tonight, but can't stand listening to the man.
he has a prepared speech but he keeps saying nuc-you-lar instead of nuc-le-ar.
i can't stand it.. you would think his people would walk him through correct pronunciation.

While I don't particularly want to get in the middle of this political turmoil - Geoff Nunberg wrote an article on this "nuclear" issue if you are interested in reading it.

It's true, Bush mispronounces words pretty often. He isn't as slick behind the podium as Bill Clinton, but at least I believe what he's saying...

Congrats Rachel! I've been running for years and can tell you it's addictive. Nothing makes me feel as "high" as a good run. Steve and I have a Hood to Coast team down here in Portland. Maybe we can talk you into signing up for next August?

Did you have to de-program yourself?
by LyinEyes ini am awaiting some material on how to free yourself from cult issues, and mind control.
i was wondering if any of your have read any good books on this, and if you find it has helped in your recovery after leaving jw?.
i am sure that the wt is not god's organization and all that goes with identifying myself as an ex jw.

Dede:
Releasing the Bonds, by is a good book. I really enjoyed it, it advocates thinking for yourself.
I found that after leaving the JW's I tended to be easily manipulated. Or, I guess a better way to explain it was I metamorphosized easily depending on who I was around. I had to Learn to trust my instincts and think for myself. It took me a while to figure out who I was; this book gave me some good exercises to do that.

Wrong ASSumptions from apostates
by bomatt6 inthe apostates here have so many wrong assumptions.
anyone that posts against them they assume is defending the society.. i'm neutral towards the society.
i don't defend it nor do i attack it.

Bomatt - I think Trauma pretty much sums it up....
Here's some reality, the WTBS splits familys apart, they turn they're back on victims of child molestors, they make false prophecy's, they lie to they're members, they teach false doctrines. How much reality do you want,
That's why most of us are angry at the WTBS....these aren't ASSumptions, they're facts.
