  I read COC in a couple of days. "In Search of Christian Freedom" was very good as well. What made the difference for me was the Mexico/Malawi double standard. To date NO witness has been able to explain it. I had my PO say he was going to come over with the CO and talk about it. They NEVER showed up. My own sister said she would look into it. NEVER got back to me. A former elder said he would look into it. NEVER got back to me. And this was all before I DA'd myself. That's got to tell you something right there.

  Blow up at an elder lately?

  by Dune in

  i consider myself to be an extremely tolerant person.

  i'm one of those people that are extremely yielding, never get into confrontations and things of that sort.. i've been fading for about two months but instead of being smart like everyone else on the board and doing it gradually, i simply just dropped off the face of the earth (by witness standards) and just focused on school and work.. theres one elder that has been calling my family asking about my whereabouts, the times i'm home, my cell # and all the good stuff.

  i wake up at 6:30 in the morning to the guy calling me, i dont bother picking up but he leaves a message.

  Here's my blow up with a couple of die-hard elders. They got a little more than they bargained for :

  He is a self righteous ass hole, and so I bypassed him entirely by contacting this elder instead.

  Hey Jeff, you are free now. I had two elders corner me at a local gas station in town. I had no problem telling both of them how I felt. I was officially DA'd by my actions that day. But I at least went out with a bang. Been feeling better by the day and months now. No regrets at all. Still adjusting to my new life of freedom. Guess time will take care of the rest. Good luck man. Always enjoy your posts.

  its time for me to move on.. some of you will know that recently ive really messed my life up.

  i met a lurker on a dub site and while we started off as just friends we became a lot more.

  over 3 months we hurt both our partners and ourselves and in the end she ended up running back to her rich boyfriend and cut me off completely.. ok i know that some of you embittered bible bashers just cant wait to reach for your keyboards and start condemning me save it!

  For a minute I thought I was reading a post about myself. Been there, done that. I took some time off from the board but found that the people here are the only people who can relate to our situation in life. I can feel your pain, and it is deep. Whatever you dicide I wish you the best. We will always be here if you need someone to talk to.

  Heard at last Sunday talk...

  i almost had to sneeze and scream bullshit when i heard this.

  the brother giving the talk said that the society has never made a prediction about when the end would come.

  he said people just read what the society published, and added their own thoughts to it!!!

  If I'm not mistaken I believe Charles Taze Russell initially said that 1914 would be the end. Then changed it when nothing happened. He also said that Christ came back in 1874, then changed it to 1914. How about the famous "Millions now living will never die" speech by Judge Rutherford. Those millions that heard that are in fact DEAD now. What a bunch of bullshit.
