Fornication or loving intimacy???
by Raisputin inso, my question is (and i am posting this on the other board as well for any that know me there).. what is the difference between "fornication" and "loving intimacy"?
by loving intimacy, yes i am still talking about sex, but i am speaking of sex between two people that care about each other and are in a relationship of some sort as opposed to a one-night stand..... for me the difference would be:.
"fornication": 1 night stand.

Revenge, should I or shouldn't I.............
by Delite2k inhey everyone, i haven't been here in a while, but i thought i'd drop by say hello and ask a silly question.
i still think about my ex (a jw) still, but i'm also angry with him for hurting me emotionaly and somewhat spiritualy.
(you can read my old post under this name to get an idea of what i talked about before) i feel like i want to get him back for the way he's made me feel.

The Whore of Babylon
by Gamaliel invisiting a few jw/xjw forums lately, i'm reminded of phrases that have been never been brought to mind for 25 years.

I never thought in a million years..
by thegentleman inthat i would love a jw gal.. deep down i am a hopeless romantic at heart.
i had given her a heart-shaped necklace and i told her "that this symbolizes me giving my heart to you".
we have been through good times and bad , maybe its just me, i go all out when i'm passionate about something.

crisis of conscience
by mackey ini am not a jw but a very close friend of mine is.we are so close that i have told her that i want to marry her ( if she leaves the org).
i have researched jw's quite a bit in recent months and have realized this book is probably my only chance at reaching her ( i also have isocf ).
she has reluctantly agreed to read them because she trust's me.

Is Society Really That Degraded?
by pettygrudger ini just read this on another thread:it seems to me , that nowadays "anything goes" and thats a shame.
do any of you really believe that our societies morals are any less decrepid than any other time in history?
if so, can someone tell me of any time in history that was more "morally" righteous, pure or wholesome?.

a portion of my story
by thegentleman inhey everyone, as if you have not heard a story like this before:.
i'm currently studying for exams being a railroad conductor(one of the exams is april 17th).
while that is stressful enough , i've realized that sometimes something as simple as encouragement or support from someone you care about deeply goes a long way.
