Wondering about Jesus?
by meat pie in.
this may or may not help, so if you don't want to question everything you thought you believed about jesus, don't look.... http://www.bartleby.com/196/.
especially look down the list of contents and read the section on human scapegoats.. i have no axe to grind, i have geat respect for what we believe we know about jesus.but remember these examples are mainly long pre-christian traditions.. also please excuse the very non-pc language, it is an old book.. shirley.

Inane question of the year...so far.
by meat pie inhello everyone, this question was asked of me by a 'tame' jw today, 'have you thought of starting smoking?'.
the question was put as if now that i don't go to meetings any more, i'd want to take up smoking!
as i'm middle-aged and packed in the fags yonks ago, it was especially stupid.my reply was, 'good god no, why would i?'.

Meat Pie still on the menu...
by meat pie inwell it's been a couple of months since my elder's visit.
i was quick to tell quite a few jws that i thought i might get df'd and if i did it would not be for scriptural reasons and they had my permission to ask.. so what do you think... not df'd but sort of half and half.
most jws when cornered say hello but are terribly busy/answering mobiles etc.some rush by looking the other way(some times i shout hello!)..

Got my elders visit yesterday...
by meat pie ini've been off-line for a bit, broken what-not in the computer,just got back on so i thought i'd tell you what happened yesterday.elder d rang to ask if 'we' could visit, ok says i, the other is the old ms who i studied with.
meantime i'd got my file on un/wts ready(it's been ready for ages) and primed husband to witness the entertainment.this went on for about an hour and a half.i was utterly in control of myself and the entire interrogation(me of them).neither of them would look at any of my evidence of the wt's blasphemous hypocrisy, so i read it out to them,(you come to my house so i'm going to tell you this) they tried to wriggle their way out but i wanted them to admit their weakness.
i really let them have it.they parried i thrusted.

Looking for a scripture for CO/Elders visit...
by meat pie in.
can anyone help me please, i think i remember a scripture something like; 'if a man tells you to do something and doesn't do it himself, don't listen to him'.
i cannot find it, i thought it was in proverbs(nwt) but maybe i imagined it.. anyway, it is possible that the co might visit me late december, i have made a few informal requests, and i'd like to be massively prepared.i have a whole array of un documents/info ready.. if you can help with the above scripture i'd be thrilled.. ta, meaty.

I saw my medical records the other day....
by meat pie in.
.....and inside was the letter i sent to my doctor a few months ago, asking for my health care advance directive to be removed, as i no longer shared the beliefs of jws.
attached was a note stating that my letter had been acted upon.. what really caught my attention though was what was on the front cover, above my name were the words'jehovah's witness' crossed out.. a funny feeling, then release.
