Jehovah's witnesses are just standing there with egg on their faces once again! Makes you want to give those bobble-heads a shake.....
wake-up for dogs sake!
In 1960's the "doctrine of the heavenlies going down" was rampant!
Really ...this idea of the number going down until it was 0 ....was a very BIG DEAL! We were counting on it! But now, as with all the rest of their whims........ it too has backfired on them ........but ....oh well, they just make up something else to fill in the void!
AAhhhhhhh yes ......... jehobas happy deluded people!
phheewwww.......omg am i finally on???????.
what an ordeal ......enough to kill an old lady off!.
wow where is everybody and how do i reply to a post?.
Guess I shouldn't complain ... at least I got to keep my
yellow belly undercover costume! ha ha and with those eight legs

Feels like we are each in a little solitary room, talking to ourselves.
Anyway I miss the old site Simon (sorry) & all the action.
Wishing everyone here .....and those still fumbling around
trying to figure it out...............................
a Very Happy New year!

Watching the movie Philidelphia tonight, really
affected me. Not only for the sadness of
Tom Hanks charactor but also the haunting
music at the end ...

Don't turn your back on me,

While watching the show, I became the one alone
& hurting, cast aside because I am now
different from jw family & old friends ... just for
my lifestyle. My new lifestyle, where I think
critically, ask questions & show love to everybody...
otherwise known as the'worldly people' and dare
to speak out about it!

if you read jw literature, the world has been progressively getting "worse and worse" since 1914.. is that really the case?.
for a more rational analysis, look here:.
a few highlights:.
Isle of Lewis.......... right on!
Welcome!
so most would now know of the vile act in sydney last week where a man held hostage over 17 people in the lindt cafe in the middle of sydney.. two people were murdered...a beautiful, educated lawyer,loving mother of three, and a brave, loving young man working as the cafe manager.. this senseless and cruel act has touched everyone deeply, especially in the communities of sydney.
the outpouring of grief and support for the victims and their families has been immense.. i was therefore outraged to have the following comment made by a witness in conversation at the kingdom hall:.
"well, we dont need to be sad, because at least now they (the two victims) will get a ressurection.
Using jw thinking ......it would be a great idea
to just shoot people instead of preaching to them,
because then they will get reserrected. Whereas
those who get preached to ...and reject message,
will die forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG ......why didn't we see this right away!
i was thinking what to get you all for christmas this year to say thanks for all of the great thoughtful posts, for lending a helping hand to those who needed it, defending the community of ex witnesses when necessary and always sharing ideas and questions.. i looked for something that was a 'one size fits all' but also personal enough to put a smile on your faces, to ease your troubles and a gift you could share with others.. on a personal note i being of a more advanced age sometimes wake up with a little cloud over my head.
time is running out on our one precious moment on this planet and it's easy to get a bit 'under the weather especially around the holidays.. so the following may come at a good time......use it well and thoughtfully.. the address tells you what you will find but it doesn't tell you how funny and richly awarding it will prove to be.. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/21/sports/football/at-107-a-buffalo-bills-fan-who-sees-it-all.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=homepage&module=mini-mothion=top-stories-below&wt.nav=top-stories-below.

Hi Giordano .....how are you guys.
That was a lovely gift ...thanks so much!
The older I get the more I treasure memories
of the past, especially the simple things, and
friends & family who are still around!
Wishing you a merry xmas and the best new year
ever!

we live in democratic, not theocratic times.. churches no longer imprison, torture or execute.. cults have absolutely no authority over non members.
we don't have to obey.
we don't have to subject our selves.
Thank you so much for your help Ajax ...
and Rebel.
It is one thing to be undercover and thinking
about what may happen in the future ........
and when the sh%t actually hits the fan and
your brain frantically tries to think of what to do!

Prepare ahead for the eventuallity, while you are
relatively calm. These dignified suggestions are
brilliant and can be shifted a bit to suit yourselves.
There are many more on board here, but are much
longer ..... such as Doc Bob ........do a google search.
