Intelligence of Witness Material
by choosing life inwhen i started attending the meetings, i was in college.
i would use any excuse i could to get out of the watchtower study.
i couldn't believe they wanted me to read the article at home and underline the answers and then i had to sit and listen to them read it aloud again and give the same exact answers they underlined in the magazine.

Song Lyrics That Remind You Of The Watchtower
by Arthur ini was listening to a song today by rush.
i had heard the song a few times before, but today i really listened closely to the lyrics.
i read the lyrics off of the cd jacket and the words remind me so much of how i felt in the watchtower organization - never being allowed to ask serious questions or raise any kinds of objections to organizational practices.

Caught Wife Cheating
by roflcopter inso i posted a while back about my marriage problems.... whole new gambit thrown into the mix.
i've had suspicions all along that something like this might be happening... but only just not confirmed that she's been cheating on me... with another jw that she works with!
she could have been more discreet about it rather than leave all the text messages on her phone.

My first and hopefully last vent on JWD
by nvrgnbk ini was talking to my trying-to-exit-the-cult fraternal twin brother yesterday about life, the jehovah's witness cult, and our jw parents.. he repeated, calmly and succintly, that he hates our parents.
i could not argue with him.
i used to, being a parent myself.

just one more week
by mathilde injeps,just one more week and i m off to africa,ghana.. my first vacation on my own.
well, not really,i m going with a friend who is married to a man from ghana, and her daughter - but anyhow, for the first time none of my boy s with me.. the boy s don t like it very much,i had to promise not to become florence nightingale (i do that,always trying to save the world,stupid,i know) not to have sex ( no,but thats not on my to do list -and not at all in a continent full of aids) never to go out without my friends,be carefull with what i eat and drink and the list goes on and on,it s like i m the child and they the parent-its sweet in a way but also a bit irritating.
well, at least now they know what it feels like for me when they are out there in the big wide world-i tell myself they can take care of themselves but i m also not happy until the have returned home safely.. mike went on the camino 2 years ago-walking through spain on his own-i didn t like that at all.the youngest is planning to go and visit our family in new zealand and australia-good for him but i ll be happy when he is safe back home .. .

by ninja inwe all know there is no mention of cats in the bible...not one....but another thing that's weird is that there is no reference to any people in the old testament taking their kids down to the beach to make sandcastles and stuff...why?

Albums, Tapes, or Videos You Had to Throw Away?
by WTWizard inthere are so many songs that the watchtower society says are "bad".
they are the ones that hint on sexual immorality, violence, drugs, or that have reference to devil worship.
or the ones that have swearing in them, which seems to be common these days.. what really gets me is how they find such petty things wrong with songs that they basically want to clean out your whole library and make you listen to kingdumb s*** all the time.
