    You can't teach me anything, love. Still as you're also the only JW to whom I can direct my anger, and not very smart, I'm going to be rude and you probably won't even realise.

    Why do so many people think they have to have a stab at "jw"? It's like an angry mob. "What's your name and congregation?" DOH! I don't see many of us posting our names and congregations??? How do you know jw's, especially ones that haven't been to a meeting in over a year aren't going to come to their senses on this board?

    JW I'm glad to hear that you are happy, But STOP, THINK FOR YOUR SELF,what if your children,

    when they move out of your home decide they want no part of the jw's. Are you prepared to not

    speak to or see them again because they are not of the jw's "world"? You see I was almost

    sucked in by them then I really started having alot of questions, when questions were asked they

    were very much frowned upon and avoided. Then I learned some of "Their Rules". One is that if I

    become jw I would not be aloud to speak to family that are not of jw's this includes my children

    (ages 16 & 17) because they do not live in my home. I really thank everyone on this site who helped

    me come to my senses before it was to late. So really think about what I said. Only you can make

    that choice of were you want to be! But my opinion, if you are on this site you must be looking for

    answers and help also. Look into other religions study,read the Bible on your own, not with others or with the help of their books. then if jw's is were you truly want to be good for you.

    No one will be able to change your mind. Just think about it ON YOUR OWN! not with other jw's because they will make sure that you do what they want not what you want.

    Good Luck in your journey.

    GOD BLESS YOU and Be With You!

    Hmmmmm JW moved into a house with all the possessions still in it, including a lot of literature that only a dub would own. Why would a dub leave such literature and possessions behind, they wouldn't unless they DIED THERE !!!

    Obviously this evil spirit that was walking your house at night and trying to take your child away was the lost soul of some paedophile DUB that couldn't rest.

    Who you gonna call?

    GHOSTBUSTERS!

    Welcome, jw. In case you were wondering, I was the one who originally posted a series of questions, out of my curiosity. I think you answered very well. I am a little ashamed of some of the answers you received. Guys (JWD board), you ARE being nosy and rude. OF COURSE jw should not reveal her congregation. I haven't either.

    First of All , I was ask to share by a member of this board and he expects to tear me down.

    Now, I do take exception with this, jw. You already decided my goal was to tear you down. It was not. I urge you to keep an open mind and not pre-judge every member of this board. We all come here for different reasons.

    JW said:

    I do not partake in the door to door preaching. My family comes first.

    How do the Elders in the congregation react to this?

    What about your monthly report?

    How can you call yourself a JW when the door to door work is the outstanding mark of a JW.

    From reading your posts it seems to me that you really have no knowledge of JW teachings or procedures.

    Hi, force, here's how to handle unreasonable fear. If the end were to come in a couple hours, you can mark it on your calendar and put a note by your bedside. The note should read, "See? You were afraid for no good reason. For what man by worrying can add a single day? Tomorrow, go live life. "

    Now, for starting a new thread, go back to the main directory, pick a section (like "Friends"), and click on "New Topic".
