The Worst Public Talk Ever
by onesong inwhat was the absolute worst pt you had to sit thru?.
i was thinking that for me the worst outline is "get a firm hold on the real life".

What Role Does JWD Play in Your Social Life?
by onesong in.
sometimes i feel like i spend to much time visiting the forum but then i remember that when i left the org.

UNDER THE BANNER OF HEAVEN
by onesong ini wanted to mention this book by jon krakauer.
it is an excellent piece of journalism about the mormons and was critical in helping me find my way out of the borg.
because it deals with a different religion it certainly doesn't seem to threaten yours as a jw.

Anyone seen "The Island"
by onesong in.

What names have you been called?
by onesong infor those of you who are out (or going that way) are there any names or terms that dubs have used to describe you that you make you laugh?.
my personal favorite (out of many) is that i'm an "enemy of everlasting life" .
by a former elder and friend.. yup, that's me...i want to see everyone die!!!!!!

"he who joyfully marches in rank and file has already earned my contempt.he has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal

Great Quotes About JW'S
by onesong ini just picked up "the american religion" by harold bloom.
he reviews and critiques american born religions and has a chapter on jw's.. here's some quotes i loved:.
