  Do I bring anything of worth to this board?

  by sooner7nc in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i sometimes fell that i don't.

  i mean that i don't put out the long thought provoking posts of some, such as atjeff, and i don't delve deep into the socio-political arguments that are always flaring up between the cons and libs.

  as a matter of fact, except for smartass comments, or contributions to fluff posts, i don't really add anything that matters.

  How I learned to mind my own business

  by RR in

  1. social
  2. humour

  i was walking past the mental hospital the other day, .

  and all the patients were outside shouting, '13....13.....13.

  the fence was too high to see over, but i saw a little gap in the planks, so i looked through to see what was going on..... .

  Living With Regret - what do YOU regret about being in the org?

  by babygirl30 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  1. getting baptized at 14 and not knowing what the heck i was 'signing' up for.

  2. dating worthless, lazy, no work ethic, selfish 'brothers' who were supposedly approved all because they were baptized - but in the end - were a waste of my time and younger years in dating.. 3. subjecting my bf (back in the day) who was a non-jw to the whole jw experience!

  i demanded that he study, i demanded that he change his religion in order to be with me, i made him sit with my parents and listened to them berate him (and myself) while they fed him all their haughty beliefs and requirements in order to date their jw daughter.

  don't marry that unbaptized meeting going sister, or loose your privileges

  by DaCheech in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i've got one of those forever single friend.. he tries to be friends with every kind of "spiritual" sister out there.

  they use him for gifts, rides, and paying their diner meals when the friends go out.. he's in his late 40's and has himself been used by 5 sisters in a 15 years span.. he says he's found a good one, but she goes to meetings and is studying the "troof".

  his elders and nosybody acquantences have told him to lay off of her until she's baptized and then some (2-3 years for prooving herself in the lord) or else loose his priviliges.. i tried to nonchalantly telling him that was hogwash, but the pharasees have a grip on him.

  he couldnt bring the olympics to chicago but he accomplished this coveted award after only a few months in office.

  this is one of the first major incidents that made me start questioning.. our hall had 5 elders and 2 ms's.

  we also had various other brothers, all doing fine.

  some of the brothers who didn't have priveledges did magazines, literature, etc.. one day, the elders decided the brothers were not reaching out enough.
