"DF'd JWs speak out against practice"
by Ephanyminitas inshirley jackson was "disfellowshipped," or excommunicated, from the jehovah's witnesses in 1995 after being associated with the church for 30 years.
jackson is speaking out against the organization because "i don't want anybody to go through what i went through.".

The desire to return just for family's sake
by Ephanyminitas inthose of you who have close witness family members -- how hard has it been not to just throw up your hands and just return to the society, just for appearance's sake?

i no longer believe anything the society says, but oh how tempting it would be to just go back and fake my way through, knowing that i could give my parents peace.

"Super Smash Bros. Melee": "Gree...
by Ephanyminitas into those of you that are big "super smash bros. melee" fans (as am i!
but i'm sitting at a computer right now (duh) listening to the green greens theme -- the orchestration of classic nintendo themes is excellent -- and i just noticed that it sounds a bit like a kingdom melody.
of course, it's tons catchier than a k.m., but you get the point.. while i'm on the topic, are there any other ssb:m fans in the audience?
