Satan overkill
by Switch ini remember in my teen years thinking about the constant warnings of satan "transforming himself into an angel of light" and wondering how in the world did i stand a chance against a demon?!
a demon thats had thousands of years to suss things out and trick people in various different ways without them even knowing.
he led angels to rebellion.

Funerals and Disfellowshipped Individuals
by lepermessiah innot to "hijack" dogpatch's recent thread, but the experience he relayed in the above topic struck a nerve and i was curious for more input.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/188715/1/my-aunts-funeral-at-the-kingdom-hall.
if there is ever a time when a shred of human dignity and compassion is deserved, it is at a funeral.. i am appalled by the way disfellowshipped individuals are treated, but especially at witness funerals.. the flesh and blood relatives have the right to be there if they choose.
if you are a witness and you are offended by a disfellowshipped person attending, dont let the door hit you in the @$$ on the way out.

my family that are not even jws get annoyed about me coming on jwd
by looloo indo any of you have this problem ?
my hub is disfellowshipped and not in the least bit interested in this site , which i find amazing considering everything that has happened , its not even a case of him being to scared to mix with apostates because he doesnt like jws and does not believe they have the truth , when i try to tell him anything , he tells me hes not interested, end of conversation .
there is so much i want to discuss with him (regarding the child abuse thing that has affected our lives ) do any of you identify with this ?

Lets pour out a lil thanksgiving liquor for those working at Bethel
by darth frosty inholidays was the worst time in the world when i was at bethel.
i never realized how important they were till i was at bethel and forced to work the holidays.. before i went to bethel i wouldn't mind working the holidays because typically it meant double or triple time pay.
but at bethel when the reality set in that hey we dont recognize holidays and its just like any other day, well that was depressing.

Leaving bethel References ?
by leo999 ini would like to know from anyone who has left bethel .
do the brothers give the people leaving bethel an employment reference , and how is it worded ?
i would prefer to think that if someone is asked to leave due to downsizing , or restructuring , that the bros do everything they can to enable that one to find employment and cope outside .
