what about those of us that were baptized before the change in baptizm questions?

i am now a jedi, so trust me on this.. .
why dis-associate, you are just playing by the wts rules?
how can you dis-associate anyway, you never thought you were baptised as a watchtower society member, you thought your dedication was to god, so why formally disassociate from something you did not formally join?

according to the restored church of god:.
there is so much more that could be said on this subject that i could go on and on and fill 100 pages!
every woman who wants that deceitfulness and wickedness removed from her heart is going to remove that physical colored dirt from her face, once and for all!
i remember pulling up to the little house gate thing at the entrance to the canadian betherl, around 87
wel there were 2 gals in the little house(box)

ohhh .. you crazy crazy fundies.
trading spouses margaret freaking out.
something tells me this person could have been a graduate of awake!
i, too, thought it was major child abuse and the ministry (or whatever it is called there) should have stepped in, she should not have received adulation (ie jay leno show) for her behaviour

There are some here that are simply forgetting that many of us who are still in are still very young and live at home.
"um, 22 is not very young,,,,13 or 14 is...."
Those of you who live on your own, can take care of yourselves financially wether you get D'F or not..well some of us are not that lucky.
"many of us do not live alone when we leave,,,we leave knowing we will be totally alone.......yet honest to ourselves...."
I know plenty my age who were not prepared to leave the WT yet, ended up doing it anyway and are not left off to fend for themselves and being able to go to school is just not an option.
"fending for oneselves,,,,now that is the real world....going to school is always an option,,it just takes time to arrange the options for oneselves"
There have been plenty of times where I have been offered a place to live (usually by some guy it seemed that I was getting serious with at the time) but I just cannot think like that. I shudder at the thought of having to be dependant on a man.
I want to do it on my own
"if so, then why are you waiting for your parents to GIVE you a car,,,that is not doing it on your own"
"sorry, i just seem to have a hard time with some younger ones who want life given to them on a platter
go ahead, get angry with me all, but that is the way i see it"

i just found out today (from my sister) that crooklyn will not be making any more bound volumes of the watchtower or awake magazines after this year------instead, they're all going to be on audio tape only.
she does not have a computer so i generously
i think this could very well be yet another tactic of the gb trying to keep a lid on their "embarassing" quotes of yesterday.
i think there was a binder type book you could buy that would hold your magazines in a clip,,,,,maybe the will be re-issuing those

i just got the local paper for chilliwack, there was a supreme court case here regarding a jw, i will do a bit of the first few paragraphs, for more go to www.chilliwacktimes.com and you should be able to find the whole article.
doctor cleared in death.
supreme court judge has determined a release form signed by a local jehovah's witnes woman who died following a hysterectomy is enough to clear the doctor in the case from paying damages............ btw.
bttt
court overturns hobbs decision .
by mike chouinard .
it was almost a decade ago daphine hobbs died following a hysterectomy at chilliwack general hospital, but a case that followed might still be far from over.
