Anyone Else from Canada?
by Miss 8572 ini'm really intrigued by that fact that i may know some of you and yet not know that i know you.
i just want to know how many people from canada are here.
if you don't mind and don't care about posting your province (cause i'm too timid to) we could all get an idea of just how many canucks are really out there.

What the C.O. said right there on the Platform
by Uncertain inhe started his talk before rev.bookstudy with all the gloom and doom news and then dropped the (to me) bombshell that he reads the news on line.
yup, i could hear an intake of breath through the hall.
i can't for the life of me remember what the rest of his talk was, although he used a box of crayolas as a prop.

Paganism- Bonnie style
by Hobo insince i posted recently about tolerance and acceptance, i've had requests to explain the way i feel/think.
basically, this is the abridged version- .
paganism is not a cut-and-dried kind of faith- i'm not really sure it's even a faith, more of a lifestyle.

This good news is being speard...by this site
by lesterd inyou know before this marvelous age of communication, you would say that i had to go looking for dirt on the society, but i was thinking about that.
isolationizm was a great thing for the society, because no knew what was going on, the people who study and questioned were put out with no one ever to hear from them again, what were they to do?, take out an add in the local newspaper to be heard and have a fair hearing?
but now people can compare and learn from their research and inspiration.

Is it weird that I don't miss it?
by bluesbreaker59 inok, other than my father, i don't miss anything about being a dub at all.
seriously, i love my life right now, its great, thinking for myself, doing what i want, etc., etc.. i've only been out 3 months, officially, and i find no "void" or anything.
i've got a bunch of great friends on the outside, that i had for years while being jw, and then i have my mother and all her family supporting me.
