can you imagine what this world would be like today , with 7 billion people , if their were never , ever a religous concept in anybodys mind ?.
wouldnt this world be such a better place to be in if it was devoid of all religion ?.
if religion never existed from the time man/woman first walked the earth until now how do you see , pros or cons , how humakind would fare today.. as i said in my o.p.
recently a jw friend that my wife & i knew 3 years ago added me on facebook, after i accepted the request she invited me to a dinner that her and her husband are holding next month.. i imagined that she was unaware of our apostasy, so i declined the invitation on the basis of not wanting to ruin her dinner after the rest of her guests fled at our presence.. i'm never sure how old friends will react when i tell them that i'm no longer a jw.. usually their response is "..... permanent-silence......".
her response went something like this, " we are all out!
everyone that is coming is out we all look forward to seeing you guys so much" it turns out that there will be 6 people at the dinner all friends of ours from a congregation that we attended a few years back.. they have all left the organization recently.. pretty crazy experience..
Oh wow that IS awesome! Warms up my heart too!
Shed a tear or 2........guess I just long to be around
people who know!

i just spent 30 minutes writing this story and lost it all before i hit submit.
i'll try to be brief.. last night a former co-worker of my wife's called saying he was on his way to the house to drop off a job he would like her to do.
we haven't seen him in over 8 years.
Question ...a big welcome to you! lots of
newbies to keep us all company...nice
to have fresh faces & minds that are opening!!!!

gb member anthony morris mentioned a letter that was sent to bethel by a concerned jw fearing the gt.
he mentioned it on the last sunday talk.
i always wondered if any letter sent to bethel ever reached gb eyes.
Oh yeah .....and what about those "go bags"?
And here's me thinking we were supposed to
trust in jehoba and not rely on protecting our
own survival!!!!!!
Have a listen to what our friends have to say! :-)

the other night, i was told about a question that a friend's bible study had asked them.
the bible study asked: "if jesus is perfect, why does he need the 144,000 to help him rule?
" this friend does not know how to answer this question.
Hey Tidalbitz ...just want to say welcome here to

is it a feeling of---oh no!!?.
are you happy to see them?.
do you have a feeling of consternation?.
Oh hell yes..after being in for 50 yrs, I can tell
they are jw from a mile away ......just look for
the cocky, I am in charge attitude!! The males
look at women like they are dirt! ....oh yeah then
there are their uniforms, suits and below the knee
dresses .........but very low cut! Guess the have
to show off one end at least!

My reaction .....can't take my eyes off them, just like
watching a car wreck!
i am sure this topic has probably been discussed many times before but,......... i would like reassurance that i am not the only one who gagged every time i heard a jw pontificating on their fantasy version of what "paradise" will be like.
particularly when it comes to the animals.
more specifically, that the animals will all become vegetarians.
Richard ....ha ha I am sniggering about that
statement .....do you know how many years
wt has been teaching that one!!!!! From away
baaaccckkkkk!!!
" "will have to wait on J and see." lol
