Victor,
A slow day in the office?
now comes the exjws
they are a curious breed of humans each at a different place and level of personal evolution to put their past sales job behind so they can focus on creating a better quality of life.
they are world class debaters.
Victor,
A slow day in the office?
the following are the rules for the new anti-religion known as the bowenites:
LOL LT! Are you an official member?
i was wondering if this is seen as wrong in the eyes of jehovah and wether it would produce unusual children.
i was just interested.
also wether it is legal in britian (where i live).
But Freddie, marrying your cousin or even your sister was instituted by God according to the bible. You nor I nor anyone of us would be here today (according to the bible) if it wasn't for this wonderful arrangement of marrying your sister/brother and procreating. Are you saying that something instituted by God makes you want to vomit?
we all probably know already that jws don't celebrate christmas, labeling it a pagan holiday and telling its whole sordid history to anyone who'll listen.
however, i found out that wedding rings are pagan in origin.
the jws know it but they include the exchange of rings during the wedding ceremony, explaining that rings are exchanged as an outward symbol to everyone that this couple is married, thus justifying the pagan origin of the whole thing.
The Honeymoon is also pagan. Embalming of the body after death is pagan. The days of the week are pagan, named after pagan gods. Almost everything has a pagan origin.
i faithfully attended all the meetings at the local kingdom hall...someone was studying with me...i went out in field service.but i never got invited to any of their social events.this hurt me so bad i stopped going to meetings.just curious,anyone else ever experience shunning?
Yep me too. I was invited to more social events when I was studying then when I actually became a witness. The cliques and all is just ridiculous and thus why it was not hard at all for me to put those people behind me. I'm not df or da'd but I could care less of what any of them think of me or if any of them ever spoke to me again.
gonna go see episode ii today!
...i know i know..it's been such a long time since it came out but i havn't gotten the time to do that stuff especially 2 hours out of a day on a busy work schedule.
but i wanted to get people's opinion...what did people think of the star wars episode ii compared to the other 4 that have come out already.
Are you kidding me? Go watch it! Then go watch again!!!
Maximum,
Not enough time on the love story.
some of you have seen my previous postings on this ongoing battle i am having for the heart and soul of my loved ones, a battle now focused on my 13-yearold.
here is part two.
* see theocratic war strategy at my house link below .
Nanoprobe what great advise! I know a couple, she's a JW, he's not. He has always been support of her being a JW because he loves her (and he doesn't realize it's a cult), although he does realize their theology is crap. He's always bitten his tongue when needed and has been very support of her and allowed her to take the kids to the KH. Their 2 kids are now grown and guess what? Neither are JWs. One disfellowshipped for years and the other never baptized.
Freeman, I'm sorry you have to be in this situation. I don't have kids but just living with my JW husband is hard enough for me. I can not imagine how much more difficult and frustrating it must be with children involved.
I know it's difficult to be patient with these people, trust me I know. Nanoprobe is right though, the best way to keep your children out of the borg. is to be patient with the whole situation and not become the JW opposer in your children's eyes. Remember that the society teaches that Satan controls people in this way to attack JWs and be opposers. If they see you in this way, they will see the society as being correct and you could lose them in the long run.
I can't express how much I wish not one person had to go through these kinds of things.
I wish you the best ((((((((((((((((((((freeman))))))))))))))))). Hang in there.
