Starting to read 1984 by Orwell
by TimothyT ini bought the book for a number of reasons:.
1. it sounds brill.. 2. it sounds like the kind of people who read are rather clever and well educated (and i want to be one of them).. 3. i may find it interesting how it relates to the jws.. regarding the latter, does anyone have any thoughts and feeling on this point, or is there anything i should look out for when comparing what orwell writes about with the jws?.
timmy :).

A year has passed and guess what... I dont give a damn!
by TimothyT ingosh... i cannot believe i have been disfellowshipped for over a year!
its so surreal.
because of my ingrained belief that the jw organisation is the one and only true religion, i often think about everything that has happened quite often.

Missing an old JW friend! :|
by TimothyT inhi everyone.. about 5 months ago i posted about how a sister and i were talking since i was disfellowshipped.
we are still good friends and we have such a laugh together.
however for the first time since i told her that i dont want to speak about anything to do with the organisation and particularly with regards to me returning to it, today the conversation came up between her and my dad when she came round for a cup of tea.

Went to a JW funeral today!
by TimothyT intoday i (disfellowshipped gay boy) went to a jw funeral with my dad (ex-elder and not yet disfellowshipped supposed apostate), my brother (who wants nothing more to do with the org) and my mum (who was never interested anyway).
well we had a great time.
this was the first time i have seen all of them in over a year in some sort of congre'gay'tional setting, although we only went to the crem.

I believe I just removed my last tie to the borg...
by TimothyT inwell thats it ladies and gents.
i levelled with the sister who continues to chat with me, telling her i will never return to the organisation and my reasons why.
i hope i didnt hurt her but i have done what i could never do and tell her things the way they absolutely are.

A glimmer of hope for sinners from the Watchtower! :)
by TimothyT inlast week i once again had a chat with the sister who still feels she can get me back to the organisation.
she touched upon the facts in the bible, namely that god condemns homosexuality and that i cannot break gods laws and expect him to forgive me so freely.
i beg to differ.
