My conversation with my semi-dub doctor
by willyloman ina doctor i visited is married to a dub from my old hall.
he is one of those husbands who was never baptized but comes to some meetings and "talks the talk," or at least some of it and professes belief but never goes all in.. i acquired him as part of a surgical team and only found out he was on that team when i went in for surgery.
he's been handling my follow up visits.

Radical Protestant Sect of One
by willyloman ini've been reading "jesus and yahweh: the names divine" by harold bloom, a professor and noted literary critic, and came across a great line which was originally used to describe the religious status of john milton, a 17th century poet.. he is described as a radical protestant sect of one.
i really like that.
it pretty much summarizes my current relgious status.. radical: not mainstream.. protestant: not catholic.. sect: offshoot of an established religion.. one: each journey is unique.. i think rpso fits many of the posters here on jwd.. --willy loman (of the rpso class)..

What I've Learned After 2,000 Posts!
by willyloman inive been watching my number of posts climb towards 2,000 in recent days.. it seemed a good time to contemplate what ive learned in the two years, seven months and five days (according to my profile) since i joined the interactive fray although i lurked here for more than a year while i was a jw elder.
during that time, i read every single post starting with the first page and caught up.
of course, its impossible to read every one now, its so big, but it's been quite an education.
