17 Days: One Final Adventure
by Merry Magdalene ini once posted here a copy of my empassioned plea to the watchtower society--i want my mother back.
well, i just wanted to let all of you know that i got her back for a whole 17 days, and we had one final adventure together before she died, and there wasn't a damned thing they could do about it.. my mother is, was, a long-term loyal jw and i was her disfellowshipped daughter.
i believe she was in an almost constant state of conflict over me because her very strong maternal instincts demanded she behave openly and lovingly toward me, while her wts-trained conscience demanded the opposite.

So....here's my story....
by CordyC inhey guys, it's me- cordy, again with my life story of being in the jws.
i've lived in new york city almost all of my life and have been associated with the jws way too long- since i was a little kid- 8 years old in 1987, plus my mom studied as early as 1983. my mom didn't get baptized until 1995 and i myself got baptized at the age of 17 iin 1996. i know we were probably on a list at some point as a "non-progressive" bible study since it took us so long to get baptized.
my mom and dad split in 1993 and that year was great because we were barely at meetings....then we got a shepherding call and my mom got sucked right back in.

I asked why did the wise men bring Jesus gifts on his birthday?
by MsMcDucket inman, did i get that evil look from everyone around me.
they said because he was to be king, and all of the kings received gifts on their birthday, and how dare i presume to be like jesus.
i was confused.

Do you think that JW's are integrating more into society these days?
by JH indo you think that jw's are integrating more into society these days or not making any progress?.
i went to a rock concert in a park on satuday night, and i saw 2 young jw's there.
their parents are jw's and the father is an elder and they go to every meeting and go out in the service regularly.. that concert was to raise money for ex-alcoholics and ex drug attics and people following therapy for this.. i've been going to that concert to raise money once a year, since over 10 years, and never saw 1 jw there in the past.. i was very surprised to see them there.

It's official. God doesn't exist.
by Jourles inlink to article
kiev (reuters) - a man shouting that god would keep him safe was mauled to death by a lioness in kiev zoo after he crept into the animal's enclosure, a zoo official said on monday.
"the man shouted 'god will save me, if he exists', lowered himself by a rope into the enclosure, took his shoes off and went up to the lions," the official said.. "a lioness went straight for him, knocked him down and severed his carotid artery.".
