  Now I'm not a JW, is it ok for me to...

  by Julia Orwell in

  ...drink a lot?

  gosh i love wine.

  i like a good bottle of wine each night, and i have a high tolerance to alcohol, though i never drank much (except for a couple of times with the vodka, but i don't keep that stuff in the house anymore, way too dangerous) as a jw because getting slightly happy is a 'sin'.

  Welcome I am the mother of a gay ex JW. The brothers never realize the damage they do with their loose talk.. Go on with your life and accept your sexuality. DO NOT marry as will be suggested it doesn't help you or anyone. Best wishes Andysmiles. My son pioneered up to the day he confessed to being gay and was df'd. He says coming out was the best thing he did for himself.

  by nugget in

  my husband showed some of my work to artists exhibiting in this years open studio event and i have been asked to submit work for next year.

  as soon as the children go back to school i will be busy with the isograph pens.

  as a witness i gave up my art studies and my dream of fine art because it was not appropriate for a witness.

  how many of us have had to deal with a version of that retort?!

  it's hurtful and i suspect - for some - that's partly because of the nagging feeling that our families may have a point.. but do they?.

  i was 15 when i got baptised, is it reasonable that as the 50 year old man i'll be on my next birthday i continue to be held to a decision i made as a schoolboy?.

  Splash I was baptised 51 years ago and very few things taught are the same. I have been told you have to be at every meeting to understand all the new lights. As my family member was saying this I think she had doubts as she expressed this thought aloud.

  Gossip make it known in the congregation they don't want to tarnish Jehovah's name but be prepared for the elders to come after you but you need to shout it wide and far to protect other young ones.

  Aunt Connie I don't know you but if youare serious think of your future. How guilty will you feel when you are in your 80s and there has been no Armageddon, no new system, and you weren't there for the end of your dads life and your mom needing your emotional support. I know Jehovah and Jesus must be more loving and forgiving than JWs teach. Examine your heart.
