  Since he definitely was not a legitimate judge, I guess that would leave the alternative.

  For the born-in/raised in, you ever get resentful upon seeing kids involved with organized sports?

  this past saturday, i was watching the georgetown/syracuse game, and a nike commercial was played during one of the breaks.

  i couldn't locate the exact commercial, but below is a variation of it that has scenes from the same one that aired on saturday.

  man did i feel some heavy resentment towards the wt during and especially after the commercial aired.

  A little off the subject Theocratic Sedition, but I am so going for Georgetown to go all the way this year (My Buffs just cannot get the job done :) That was an awesome game. Heading to Vegas in one week for March Madness - can't wait!!!!

  And yes, there are a lot of things in my youth I would have loved to have done....like going to a Friday night high school football game would have been unbelievably awesome. However, I probably would have gotten drunk, taken drugs and then slept with the whole football team and ultimately brought shame on Jehovah's clean organization. So happy I had to stay home and study my red Youth book instead.

  1974 - can divorce your marriage mate if they insist on oral / anal intercourse.

  1978 - can still divorce your marriage mate if they insist on oral / anal intercourse.

  1983 - cannot divorce your marriage mate if they insist on oral / anal intercourse.

  so my husband (who was never a jw) saw a christian bumper sticker today and asked me if the witnesses have any.

  i said no (not that i know of anyway) so here are a few he came up with.. 'honk if you're a zombie'.

  'my other car is noah's ark'.

  Evil Elderettes, the true Hounds of Hell!

  my wife was told a brother was going to be disfellowshiped, "how do you know this is going to happen?

  " sister so-so said "he was not repentant or humble to the brother's kindness.

  " instead of engaging into a heated debate, she knew who the leak was, so-so's husband.

  L.I.T.S. I can relate 100% to everything you just said. The only purpose I served as a wife was to improve his image as an elder. So, so happy that part of my life is long gone.

  Not all elder's wives are in the know. My elder husband of 20 years NEVER, EVER breathed a word of ANYTHING to me. He truly was as silent as the grave.

  Who pioneered with the promise of having 'Jehovah provide' and ended up dirt poor anyway?

  i ask this because the wt always bangs on about if you trust in jehovah and make that leap into pioneering, you will always be provided for.

  at the time i joined the cult, a friend was continuous aux.

  pioneering.

  In the 10 years I pioneered I looked as if I had just escaped from a Nazi concentration camp. I was absolute skin and bones - always hungry and exhausted.

  What happened immediately after your Judicial Committee was over?

  by civicsi00 in

  2. experiences

  whenever i went to my judicial committee (over 3 years ago), the elders opened with a prayer for jehbooboo's guidance.

  then they followed up with their loyalty question, "do you believe in the faithful and discreet slave?".

  of course i answered "no", and shortly thereafter i handed over my disassociation letter.

  I refused to show up. What went on with the man I dated for a number of years did not concern anyone other than my ex-husband, who was duly informed that he had grounds to remarry. Those 3 elders needed to get their erection somewhere other than the back room.
