Know any cases from platform or audience of "apostate" remarks?
by Gregor insince leaving, one of my fantasies (after hours on the platform in the old days) is making a well planned statement, starting out subtle and building it into an outright expose of wt doctrine.
it would have to be a specific subject, (1914 generation would be good) to keep it consise and simple.
i have seen a couple of "crackpot" situations where somebody yelled from the audience, but nothing very effective.

Those here who disassociated- do you regret it?
by JimmyPage indoes anyone here who disassociated regret it?
do you wish you had just faded instead?
did disassociating give you a liberating feeling of power over your life?

No book study?
by jacethespace inis it true that the watchtower has scrapped the book study group meetings?.
i find this really funny as for years when i was in the tower i was constantly being told how jehovah has set up the book study group so that when the great tribulation starts and religion is turned on we can then all meet in our small book study groups around the world and be protected and still be instructed and spirtually poisoned i mean fed to death.but now this plan is blown out the window those still in the tower are still falling for this bull and believing no doubt that this is jehovah improving his organization.. has anyone still in asked what will happen to the congregation now when religion is banned at the end?.
also what about the scripture they always used which said 1st century christians met in there homes?does that no longer matter or apply?.

Will the tower play there power trip on me?
by jacethespace insince i have left the watchtower i have met a really great girl [ or as the tower might put it-worldly].
the thing is i think i might be in a bit of a predicament because when i left the tower i decided on the option that i would just walk away and not send a letter of dissociation.and the local elder and his wife lives right next door to me.because of this i have still saw them and other of my tower associates and been able to speak to them and they have spoke to me.. but now i have a feeling that once i start to bring my girlfriend back to my place that my neighbour/elder will take more of an intrest in whats going on and it might lead them to dissfellowshipping me.although as far as im concerned my life is none of there buisness anymore.but im just wondering how long it will take for them to visit me and announce that they are going to df me.. anyone had any similar experiences or anything?.

Autism and deveopmental delays my story
by milligal ini really need to share this story and it's in hopes someone else finds it enlightening or helpful....i know there are a lot of other people out there who have 'difficult' kids and get the third degree from teachers, relatives and friends.
here's my story, how my family worked through two huge challenges, the symptoms, the diagnoses and the practical tasks that helped us:.
my son with autism-my oldest son was an angel at home, quiet, loved to draw and from a yound age would spend hours drawing and painting.
