Anybody here a Jane Austen fan?
by Bonnie_Clyde innever thought i would be, but now i've watched 3 versions of sense and sensibility, 2 versions of pride and prejudice, 2 of persuasion, and 2 of emma.
also saw one of mansfield park, but i didn't like it that much.

The elders came last night and i stood my NEW ground!!! be proud!
by New light for you inso yes, the brothers came for "encouragement" and of course, my husband is out of town on business... so it was me and the kids.. so i did let them in, i like these brothers...these are some things we discussed.... 1. i went over how that stupid "obey" email got all this started, got me to divulge to my girlfriend how i was feeling about the whole religion.
about how at the end of the call she said that she can't associate with me anymore, and then right after that call/ 30seconds later while i'm crying a pioneer called and asked "do you consider yourself one of jeh witnesses anymore??
" and i thought that was crazy for someone to try to trap me when i was sitting crying on the phone, upset with the last call... i told them that for all purposes i am already dfed since noone will talk to me anymore, and only one friend called to see what happened, everyone else just listened to the gossip of whatever spread, and wrote me off even though i'm technically in good standing.

I was reading about the different policies in Malawi vs. Mexico last night in COC... I know there is a lot of talk about suing the WTS, but if I were a Malawi woman raped and beaten in the 1970's, couldn't I make a case in International Court that I was subject to abuse due to WTS policies that were not applied equally? I'm sure this has been discussed before...

What Would You Like to Tell The Governing Body?
by AK - Jeff inwe assume that they or their dupes read this forum, or parts of it, right?
address your comments to them.
do so kindly, and respectfully, remembering that it is their religion, and they can run it like they like.

BonaFide, I don't think I said welcome! So Welcome! It is very refreshing for me to see more and more people come here... I'm not a JW, but a friend of mine is... He recently branded me as a "bad association" and isn't talking to me but I hope he'll come around someday... I don't envy the position you are in, but know you have much support here... I really think there should be a grass root movements to start a "Real Life" support group for JW Survivors, because really you are all survivors... Congratulations and I look forward to reading more about you!

BETTER/WORSE than a worldly person?"
by chuckyy inafter your own personal experiences within the jws, do you conclude that the normal rank and file jw is worse than a person in the "world", better, or no different.
what do you base your conclusions on???.
chukyy.

Yay Rob!!!! It feels very odd to be called "worldly"! LOL I'm just a plain ol' ordinary person... I found it very strange that us non-JW's have the whole "worldly" moniker...
