I guess you could say I grew up as a lamb in the organization. Encouraged to get baptized at age 14 so I followed the crowd of eager robots thinking it would impress mom. (such a fine christian sister) Hey that's all I knew at that time. No one listened about the problem with my step-father because he was a witness.Suddenly I got kicked out at fifteen going sixteen. I was set up and ratted out by an elite click of silverspooned elder teenage lambs. Soon the congregation had talks about following Jezebel ways. Left Tx moved to Cali. Began living with my Gran-mother (non-J.W.) Gran-mother loved me as her own and accepted me fully. I miss granny. I had a wonderful life with her .
Later Granny died, my mother (remains a J.W.) took over the funeral arrangements. Now, not only did my family in california have to travel to Tx for the funeral (non-J.W.)
But My mom gave my gran-mother a Jehovah's Witness funeral. All my mom's friends from the kingdomhall was there. They stared me down like zombies. Not even a word was spoken to me. The elder giving the funeral talk says only J. W. will get into the kingdom of God but for non- believers there can be hope of a resurrection..... Now I repeat my gran-mother was not a witness! She was a devote believer of the trinity.
I bought a beautiful flower arrangement on a large stand for my gran-mother. The only flower from my mother's J.W. friends was one flower pot from the grocery store. I kid you not.........
Most of the non- J.W. family remain upset and offended today.
