did you report others that you either suspected of doing something wrong or knew of that had committed some "wrongdoing"?.
the elders regularly tried to lay a "guilt trip" on members by telling them they could personally "hinder god's holy spirit" if they didn't come forward to the elders and either fink on themselves or someone else.. did you buy into this crap??

Hi, minimus, supreme one!
It's been awhile. Fortunately I didn't go through "keeping the congregation clean" fiesco. They were rather secretive, which made it more suspicious.
Anyway I hope everything is going well with you, you drinking-dancing red dot.
i got dragged to the convention with my folks again because i got a court order stating i have to be with my mother at all times.
so tomorrow, i'm playing a prank.
only a few people on this board know what that prank is.
No post from Cold Red Rain yet. Maybe he got caught.
i've been absent from this board from some time, as i've been through alot the past few months.
firstly, my mother passed away after complications from her surgery.
so i've lost my entire family since 1999. i'm an only child.
Hi, Wing Commander, I'm so sorry about your mom. I can only imagine what you are going through now. You do what you think it is the best. Based on your post, I assume you are just an inactive member? Otherwise they (jws) wouldn't even talk to you. I've had some bitterness toward the jws and the watchtower society. I'm trying to make peace and move on. But sometimes it is not easy. I'm still thinking about what I will do. I've thought of attending other churches, but so far none of them has struck me as a true worship place. I'm having some issues with God. I don't think He is really nice. I'll probably go with an organization/ faith that can teach me that God the Almighty is really a loving God. Good luck to you and Happy Living! Cheers! sunshineToo

i am so grateful to have a place where my experiences being treated like one of the walking dead can be understood and empathized with.. i was opening my mail last night and there was a bill from local hospital.
i opened it a bit confused because i have not been in a hospital in 2 years.
it was a detailed bill for my stepson.

I do understand what you are going through. They, the jws, could be very inhumane. By the way why do you have to take care of their bill? Especially since they didn't want you to be involved in the first place. Is your Ex paying at least half of it?
reading hortensia's topic "menu" made my mouth water.
i remember in the 70's (when we used to be able to have lots of jw social get-togethers like picnics and parties) some of the friends would bring pot-luck specialties that were to die for!.
everyone has a dish they consider their "specialty" which gets high praise and generally requests for the recipe.
My specialty: Grilled chicken and Eggplant Parmesan, Roast Chicken with vegetables, steamed mussels, and Beef Stew.
my mom said that according to the society non of jws died.
she was very proud of it.

my brother, who got baptized not too long ago, sent me an email that recently many ex-jws are coming back to the organization and that he want me to come back as well.
he also told me that he's going to be an aux.
pioneer next month.

To be honest I've been having some problem reading the Bible. For me reading the Bible means believing in God. But the God that the jws painted is so self-centered and immature, I'm still debating whether I should follow him or not. True, perhaps the jws got it all wrong. Maybe I should look into other venues.
I just wanted to vent out.
i've been enjoying her cooking show on food network.
