Dis, from what I can tell, you always knew deep in your heart that most JWs were full of sh*t.

After growing up in a family with only one parent a JW and being avoided as weak spiritually, I vowed that I would not treat other JWs like that when I became an adult. And I kept that vow. Judge not, lest ye be judged, eh?

All the elders, ministerial servants, and pioneers thought so, yes. OHHHHH! You mean toward those on the outside. No, I wasn't.

Inside too....Being raised in the "truth", it's easy to be arrogant. I do realize that I was never ever better than anyone else. That's why my attitude toward elders is, "you're no better than me".

Quite the opposite. I was very shy and quiet with great anxiety about life. I've had to work very hard and making myself think I am worth anything.
I did know lots of arrogant JW's though.

No I never had such an attitude problem either towards the JWs or the so called worldly people.
Blondie was growing up among the dubs with only one parent as a JW creating serious problems for you, did they look down upon you socially?
