One year ago this week I left the JWs...
by logansrun inwell, it's my anniversary.
one year ago this week i left the organization and have only been to one meeting --a funeral for a dear friend.
i didn't get disfellowshipped or write the letter announcing my apostacy, just a complete vanishing act from the crummy religion which was mine the first twenty-five years of my life.

Are there any teachers on this board?
by logansrun inso, i'm thinking about becoming a high school teacher.
i'm finishing up a summer course at my community college and will be going to northeaster illinois university in the fall.
i've been thinking about majoring in biology and secondary education (instead of history and secondary ed.).

Who is your least favorite GB member?
by logansrun inokay, i always look with suspicion on topics that talk about how evil certain jws are, but i am a little curious about this -- who are the "bad guys" on the gb and who are the "good guys" (if any)?
my experience: ted jaracz -- the bad guy.
i've discussed a little of my contact with him in the past.

Why can't I just shut up about the JWs?
by logansrun inyou know, i'm pretty smart and pretty dumb all rolled up into one.
i have a pretty decent relationship with my jw mother who basically never says anything about religion one or the other.
well, i got into conversation with her about hindu music and how i really liked it (ravi shankar is awesome!).

Non Christian Theists
by logansrun inare there any non-christian theists on this board?
i ask because it seems that there are two polarities for the members here: either some form of evangelicalized christian or atheist.
but, has anyone managed to go a different route?

Flashbacks of JW frustration...
by logansrun inthis post is going to be somewhat disconnected, my apologies.... for the first time in a long while, i'm really mad at this organzition.
you know, i had lost a lot of my "bitterness" a few months ago when i started to absorb myself in other activities.
lately, i feel like i've had a "delayed reaction" of sorts when it comes to my association with the jws.

Your favorite Watchtower oddities
by logansrun inyou know, there are some things phrased that are just so, so....watchtoweresque.
what are some things you see that remind you of some wt foibles?
one thing that always cracks me up is when an article or book (or post) uses too many exclamation points.
