Goodbye from James Free
by James Free inwhen i joined jwd i still felt the need for a 'support group' and jwd was full of similar people wanting to share their experience.
now the time has come for me to leave - i am now able to put 35 years of jw living completely out of my head.. .
many factors have helped me, and jwd was an important part of that, and i will always be grateful to simon for setting up this forum.. .

Dare you have an opinion here?
by James Free ini have noticed that if someone has an opinion that does not go with the flow on this forum they often get insulted and shot down in flames.
i thought this was a discussion forum, but i am sadly dismayed to read so much intolerance of another's opinion.
if you appear to support the jw's in any way, even though people like me may disagree with you, you are entitled to your opinion.

GoverningBody.org is now up.
by James Free inwell, i finally put up the site.
the articles are nothing new - bits from wikipedia etc.
but i hope it will persuade even one 'interested' one to avoid the jw's - and even get an existing member to think.

Why was I so blind?
by James Free innow that i can see right through the crap that is the jw religion, i sometimes ask myself - how come you blindly believed all that rubbish for 30 years??!!
i am so annoyed with myself for that - i have a degree, yet i was totally duped for such a large part of my life.
and now that i can see how so full of holes it all is, i kick myself for not seeing it before.

The Gospel of Judas
by James Free injudas iscariot's reputation as one of the most notorious villains in history could be thrown into doubt with the release of an ancient text on thursday.
the gospel of judas, a papyrus document from the 3rd or 4th century ad, tells the story of jesus' death from the fallen disciple's point of view.
alleged to be a copy of an even older text, it casts judas as a benevolent figure, helping jesus to save mankind.

The field service report
by James Free inwhenever i read the bible, about prayers and giving gifts in secret, and not letting the right hand know etc.
it became clear to me that handing in a report with my name on was unscriptural.
my elder friend even agreed - but said we gotta do it anyway.

Posting a topic and saying ANY TAKERS?
by James Free inif the one creating a topic is too bored or lazy to write an opening salvo, why bother at all?
