I want a wife
by hamsterbait inhas anybody got a copy of this very witty article by judy brady?.
i read it years ago as a student.
along with "a room of one's own" by virginia woolf, it should be requiired reading for all the ignorant witlesses with penises.. hopefully they will then start to see women as people instead of challenges, servants and whores.. don't bother getting up your hopes.... hb.

It's tough letting go
by B_Deserter inyou know, we all like to talk about how awful the congregations we attended were, but at the end of the day, most of us are here because we need support letting go of our friends and family.
personally, i had and still do have occasionally (because i haven't faded yet) great times with some of my friends.
yeah, it's all based on our religion and they wouldn't be my friends if i didn't believe it.

Lovers who need a Holiday
by YoursChelbie ini think there's a song somewhere that mentions that sometimes lovers need a holiday, time away from each other.. does it help two people to see things more clearly when they spend some time away?
has it helped you ?.
after the dust settles, you either move on and forget all about them or you gain a different perspective on the whole relationship.

Watchtower teachings
by jacethespace ina while ago i did a thread about the nephillim and was wondering whether the fallen angels were physical beings.. some here mentioned the watchtower reasoning about how the fallen angels who had children with the women [ in genesis 6] took on human bodies then discarded them when god sent the flood over the earth.. i thought about this and looked at the scriptures and realised that there is no scripture to back the watchtowers reasoning up on " the sons of god" taking fleshly bodies.then discarding them in the flood.this shows how the tower has an "answer for everything" mentally.. is there any other beliefs that the watchtower has gotten us to believe in which cant be backed up by scripture?.
while i was studying i was intrested to know what happened to enoch.in genesis 5:24- and enoch walked with god and he was not for god took him.i was told that god put enoch to sleep to spare him from the wicked around him that would have killed him.although there is no evidence either in the scriptures for this.it just shows how the watchtower interprets things for themselves..

how can I try to find a lost freind that may have been DF'd?
by Alex Delta incan anyone tell me how they may approach this situation?
you've been out for a while and you move far away.
plenty of time passes by and you know by the odds at least some of those friends you had growing up as a witness should be df'd or they've disassociated them selves.

whats it like going on the "work" ministery
by looloo ina lot of ex dubs i know have said they did not enjoy it at all , and i certainly got the impression it was more of a duty than a privelidge by ones who are still in it , they even asked if they could use me to get thier time in !!!

i used to think to myself that at least the born agains look as though they actually enjoy worshipping god considering they are serving satan !!!!!!

how do you handle relatives questions on your jw status?
by atpeace ini was curious how others handled the questions like - so, when is your convention, how many publishers do you have now, etc.
these questions always come up with the once a year visit to jw relatives.
usually it's asked in earshot of my jw parents.

who is your mediator
by buffalosrfree ini often wondered how people couldn't see that the society was taking away everything from the jws.
the "meek" don't even inherit the earth, according to them, the "annointed" do though they will never live on it.
