What Used To Bother Your Conscience? (page 2)

I freaked out when my hubby brought home From Dusk to Dawn because it had vampires and vampires were demonic.

Yea, but the scene with Salma Hayek made it up for it

But, yea, I had the same issue with "demons". I couldn't watch anything that might be demonic.

I missed all the big "demon thriller" movies of the 70s and 80s. There was no way I could ever watch The Exorcist. Well, since I've figured out that it's all baloney, I watched The Exorcist this past year. I was disappointed. It didn't scare me at all. I thought it was comical. And now I love vampire movies.

I have always had a defective conscience. I suppose at times people were able to whip it up with a huge guilt trip, but mostly, I was simply worried about getting caught.

That a ministerial servant had ripped off one of his nephews in a business deal by abusing family trust.

That someone was made an elder, though clearly not mature enough for the post, because he was the son in law of the presiding elder.

When I came off pioneering for health reasons, I knew I would never be able to go back to it, but it still bothered me quite a bit, especially when one or two asked me if I was going back on.

Also, shunning people I had known for years bothered me a lot as well.

607BCE bothered me. After I researched the date and found it to be baloney I was out of there immediately!

Almost everything bothered my conscience because none of my efforts were enough by WTS standards.

Everything bothered me because I found it hypocritical. They read those scriptures about obeying in the smallest things means loyalty in the biggest things (something like that), sitting on the fence, obeying Caesar, etc.

It bothered me when ppl who claimed to be better than everyone else would break laws (traffic laws, etc., etc.) and not consider it a violation of their own teachings. I sat in on bible studies where we'd tell people you must obey laws but then the conductor would go right outside and speed through school zones.

At the time I felt it was evidence they were not God's people, because they pretended to be something they weren't. I was right.

I had a very acute conscience.

Not pre - studying used to make me feel guilty.

Opening my eyes in the prayer made me feel bad.

Dirty thoughts.

walking a long way between doors to bump my time up, and knocking doors I knew were empty. I was always in a total guilt trip about getting pioneer hours in, because I didnt have a car, but when I walked places and counted the time I felt guilty for spinning it out. On the other hand when people gave me a lift it robbed me of maybe an hour. It was an agonising dilemma.

When I was younger my mom brought us to a Drive-Thru for dinner. When she checked the bag, she noticed that there was an extra cheeseburger packed in it. She went into the restaurant to pay for it.

I still laugh at it when I think back.
