Dear Zoiks, how right you are! Do you remember guys when (was it around September?) you all started to excitedly discuss the new interpretation and many of us thought such an utterly ridiculous explanation would finally open up the eyes of many (although some of you were rightly skeptical about it)? Well, it's very disappointing for me to realize how little of a fuss it has created among the brothers, my own sister included (although I still have the hope this has really hit her inside only she's not telling me yet). Oh, well... Everything is so crazy...

Generation 'New Light' is Actually Working
by zoiks inas ridiculous as it seems to me and most of you, the infamous 'generation' update has every jw that i know in a tizzy.
they're all worked up about how 'exciting' it all is.
i just received a letter from my mom (she only communicates through letters now), and she brought it up - how they carefully explained it at the convention, and how it shows that we are so close to the end.. unbelievable.

by undercover inin the september 15th wt koolaid edition, the study article "christian unity glorifies god" in paragraph 10 this is stated:.
"the immoral world in which we live threatens our unity.
people joke about fornication, sing about it, watch it for entertainment, and practice it either in secret or openly.

Dear Think about it, I'd love to tell. But since there are other people involved... And I'm not talking about just one case, but at least four cases of BLATANT flirtation at its worst (in three of these cases, elders in good standing, in VERY good standing, are involved). Nearly all of them are currently extremely unhappy they can't make their dream come true. And I'd better not add anything else, since I want to continue to consider myself a discreet woman. Love, OLGA.

JWs pretended to be someone else at my door.
by myusername inthis is probably in the wrong section, but i couldn't decide where to put it.
i was raised a jw and i still suffer effects from that kind of upbringing.. anyway, they said they were local community volunteers and they wanted to give me something related to the community.
i didn't open the door but they put a jw tract through it.. i don't think it's right to be so devious about recruitment.

Think about it said: "Probably far more flirting and affairs by married persons goes on inside the KHs than at work".
If only I spoke...!

What difference does it make if we are born in?
by wanderlustguy inborn in, what difference does it make?.
i was thinking about this one a lot over the last few weeks.
what difference does it make whether you were born into a cult or were brought in as a teen or adult?

Dear Wonderlustguy, this is one of the best posts I've read lately. How well you have described it! I can't wait to read it to my 11-year old son, who, having been liberated only one year ago, will also be able to relate to a lot of it, plus it will help him appreciate even more the freedom he enjoys now compared to what his teenage years would have been like had I not woken up. Thank you very much indeed!

Thank you, Darth frosty, for posting this. I skipped the curse words in my mind as I read along, as I always do, so nothing would detract from the very reasonable argumentation of this talented writer. Thanks for sharing. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Hello, four candles! Nice to hear from you. I'm glad you decided to start your own very first thread. And since an image is worth more than 1.000 words, your video does help to highlight the absurdity of that Bible passage. Although I think it would have been far more striking if kids had been used instead of adults, don't you think? Hugs, OLGA.

Whatever happened to kindness?
by Terry inlately i've notice how few people i'm around practice kindness.. it is, frankly, apalling to me.. i don't see any reason to be rude.
there is too much of that already.. when somebody makes a mistake i try to let it drop and not mention it or give them a dig.. why?
how hard is it to be kind?.
