I'd like to get out there and stop being former JWs and just be.... friends and neighbors. And mountain climbers
That will be wonderful! The thought of being ''normal'' makes me happy and warm inside. Enjoy those mountains.
Peace

Any of you folks from the awesome state of Colorado??
by SweetBabyCheezits inmy wife and i are thinking of moving our family to a better place in the us....away from jw family and out of the southern bible belt.
just curious how many of you live around co and, more specifically, near fort collins?
of course, we're open to any city that is less conservative and has awesome summer weather and outdoor activities.

New Light @ The 2011 District Convention
by dontplaceliterature in" at the bottom of the image on the back of the invitation raises some eyebrows, but last night in the routine district convention article during the service meeting, i caught that one of the paragraphs mentioned that we would be encouraged to keep a copy of the tract in hand for a discussion during sunday's last talk.
my guess is, there is going to be some new revelation about what the "?
" represents, or some other fangled idea.

That means nothing, except there's no telling what they can do to stretch out "the feet" of the image. There could be 700 more years to go.
Exactly! My FIL was getting excited, saying ''the end is so close''... Yeah it was so close when i was a child! Still no Armageddon.........

My FIL dragged Carrot in the kitchen and said that ''we'' are at the feet of the statue now.... Carrot looked at his dad and said ''yeah, so??'' Lol.
Just something for the R&F to get all excited about. Keeps them sleepy just a little longer.

For British exjws: how has your view of the Royal Family etc changed
by jean-luc picard inwith the royal wedding in the news,.
has your perspective of the royal family, her majesty the queen, the national anthem, and maybe politics in general, changed since you left the borg?.
even if you're not british, would you say you are more patriotic now?.

I have always loved the Royal family... My mom was always very patriotic, used to watch the Queens speech on xmas day and anything to do with the Royal family mom bought, watched, read it... When i was a dubbie, the WT used to make me feel like i was commiting a sin for thinking highly of them. Since i have left i have become very patriotic, feels like i can show my true colours now... Got Royal family memorabilia in the house now. Lol

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTT!
Any man that has ever tried to ''Lord'' it over me has felt my toe up his bottom!
This is why men love the bible, it gives them power over women... The fact that the bible was written by men explains it all... What these women need to do is get the bible and smack it over their domineering husbands heads. All of this is because of what the apostle Paul wrote. Christ never mentioned anything about ''headship''.
I bet he gives his wife a slap!

prana, life force, chakras? What?!
by finding my way ini went to a pranic healing class with my sister in law last week (i've been out 6 years and i'm starting to get pretty open minded).
i didn't expect to feel or experience anything "different".
i thought it was all weird but was not scared of the ideas like i would have been a few years ago.. so anyways we did a couple excercises where we held our hands a couple feet above our partners hands and visualized light in different colors beaming out of ours and hitting theres and then switched roles.

I agree with doofdaddy, raising your Kundalini energy without proper guidence is very dangerous... It does irritate me when ''new agers'' take a nonchelant view towards it.
FMW pm me if you want to ask anything.
