1 year later
by DIM inwell its been a little over 1 year since my wife moved from pa to wa in hopes of starting a new life....its amazing how things and people change over time.
we've basically become much much happier people without the awful influence of the wts...so relaxed in fact, that my wife is now pregnant and we are starting a family...i guess my "guys" worked alot better w / out the stress of the wts....strange how people change too, one of our best friends, "collegegirl", isn't really close to us anymore and we've made a bunch of friends out here...i guess satan really does bless good people.
yeah!

JW's come knocking on Christmas
by DIM inwell, after 10 months, the jw's finally came knocking on my apartment - on christmas day!
in my head, i was going to debate with them, maybe even reason with them.....what actually happened is that for some reason, all of the emotional things inside of me came to the fore and i waited until they were leaving my apartment, i opened up my door, grabbed the tract, crumpled it into a ball, threw it at them and rattled off a string of profanities (which i won't repeat here, out of respect for simon's rules).
i was really mad at myself for doing this, but at the same time it provided an immense cartharsis for me.

DIM is an apostate
by DIM inwell, after 9 months of being out, i've learned that the rumour is out that i am apostate.
this is primarily because of things my mother has said to people.
the funny thing is that i moved 3000 miles away and have barely had any contact with any of my old friends.

carbon dating
by DIM init seems that either my computer or my wt-cdrom is not working properly, othewise i wouldn't need to post this.....anyway my pioneer mother called here ranting about how a new discovery was made that will ruin the evolution theory as we know it today and she was saying how they used carbon dating - and in her words - "which we as jw's don't believe in, since the dates are very inaccurate".
i was curious as to whether or not the wts has ever used carbon dating to support any of their theories.....i seem to have it stuck in my head that they have done this several times.
any help would be appreciated.

DIM - 8 months out
by DIM inwell, its not like i post here too often, but i still occasionally browse through the various topics and catch up on what has been going on in the xjw world....after 8 months of not attending meetings i can honestly say i am much happier.
my perceptions and views of "apostates" and people who abhor the watchtower society has gradually changed too....at first i was all for all of the movements and stuff like that.
but now it seems almost its own cult to me, with all of its own catch phrases and "elite members".

Citizen Ruth
by DIM ini think this is an excellent movie.
the main character gets pregnant before marriage and then is caught in a struggle between extreme pro-lifers and extreme pro-choicers.
reminded me of those poor bible studies who get caught in the middle of extremely brainwashed jw's and extreme anti jw groups, each groups with their own agenda and propaganda.
