kurtbethel: LOL - "one who has not defiled himself" comes to mind. I guess I would have a smile like that if I had that on my neck!

So what is all the talk I hear about "Beware the Enemies of the Kingdom"? Just a symposium and not a book? When was the Kids DVD reelased?

can someone confirm the exact listing of 2012 DC releases? Any pdf of the book "Beware of the Enemies of the Kingdom"?
it seems they can't even let you get disfellowshipped in peace !
i've been out for three years now, and i heard that i'm a whack job, i'm gay ( i'm married with a son ), that i lied on a judicial committee, and these rumors were started by my ex-fiance and her meddling congregation.
when i heard about these things i called my p.o or c.o.t.b.e ( mind you i'm disfellowshipped when i called ) .
I was too proud to go to meetings because I stepped aside as an elder.
i haven't attended the kingdom hall in over 3 months now.
it really is a great feeling.
no dreading the thursday night or feeling like your weekend is wasted because of sunday morning.
Well done!! I have now been clean for 29 months (I think of organized religion as an addiction). It will get easier and easier as time progresses. Importantly I have finally shed the fundemental indoctrination/brainwashing and have a relationship with God that is much more meaningful. I read the Bible more often now than I ever did as a dub and elder. Keep on going, you will feel a huge release. Remember to come back here when you need encouragement, ones like Blondie, Mouthy and Mr Flipper and the humour of Outlaw will help you though any challenges you will face - there are many others too that are very helpful on a wide range of topics. Contrary to popular belief everyone on this board is not miserable, bitter, angry and unhappy. The friends you have here will help you more than any dub ever will. All the best!
divorce is not, by nature, something pleasant or 'nice' in general.
that said, i do wonder if there is a trend in the world that transcends the "truth".. i can hardly read anything biographical these days without encountering someone who has gone thru an amicable divorce - at least, amicable in the outcome, anyway.
they may 'still be friends' and simply come to see it as another step in their personal evolution.
KS: Sad, no wonder many run to dull the reality they are in with prescription drugs and anti depressants. For a group of people that are to be the happiest on the face of the earth, reality says otherwise. I know my wife and I have a much better realationship post dubdom. Especially now she is not a dubdame!
she did it again.. i'm waiting for someone to come out and give a prayer.. rub a dub.
Yea, Chris Evert, had a bad crush on her in the 70's!!
