i was watching steve martin "leap of faith" pg rated mind you with some witnesses.

he plays a fake faith healer.

their were a couple swear words, and the brothers asked me to switch it off.. same thing happened with christine applegate movie {pg 13} "don't tell mom the babysiters dead.

"I love you man!" - as he hugs everyone.

as a newbie here, only having discovered this site a few days ago, i wanted to share with you my early observations and impressions.. being out of touch with the witnesses the last 13 years, i didn't realize sites like this existed.. my thinking was all apostate sites were places of doctrinal discussions on the trinity, hellfire, etc... with bitter x-jw's ranting 24/7.

so i was never excited about allowing more controversy to my life nor visiting such sites.. this is different.. what i'm noticing is that most here seem to be well versed in witness doctrine, much more so than the visiting jw's.

perhaps there is a protection for the wts in keeping people ignorant?.

one thing i've realized is that witnesses love feeling better than their fellowman.

did being a witness make you feel better about yourself?.

I need help finding my father
by Megachusen in
1. jw
2. friends
i'm not even sure where to begin with this.. my father is considered an apostate and i haven't been allowed to talk to him for 14 years.

now i don't even have any connections to him.

i don't know anyone he knows and i don't even know basic things like where he lives.. any help on someplace where i could look him up would be appreciated..

HooooooooooRay! Wifey has a job!!!!
by AK - Jeff in
1. jw
2. experiences
13 months later.

probably 1500 applications/resumes online and in person.. it is not a great job - flippin' burgers - and the distance is a bit more than we wanted for her to drive - but we are thankful!

they mentioned possible management in the interview - so perhaps it can grow over time.. anyway - it will help keep the wolves off the doors.
