Looking back, did you conduct yourself in such a way that you really did feel that you were better than others?
As a JW, Did You Exhibit An Attitude of Superiority???

No I felt like an outcast from the world and I knew jw's were full of shit.
Now I feel superior to them.

I know of some wonderful "theocratic" role models who ooze an air of superiority. They think they and their families are Cleaver perfect.

The Society conditions you to do so. If you were doing "well", you wondered "what's wrong with so and so who's not?".

At least on the outside they seem perfect.
I knew of one such family the elder dad was the biggest prick on earth he literally thought his shit didn't stink and it came across loud and clear, he had this air about him, he always looked down at you and gave the most long winded talks about immorality and to much sex on tv blah blah, well he got busted watching porn on line several times, he lost his privileges and his wife left him and took the kids, he got df'd and still is to this day.

Yes, of course. Any religion who really gets you to believe they are right leads the believer to hold the attitude that you really are.

I'm afraid so. I was one arrogant liitle sob. Give me a break though. I was young and beleived I had the truth. I was a quick wit as well. I felt pretty safe shooting my mouth off cuz of my older brothers protection. I wasn't developed enough to consider other people's feelings. Deep down though, I was a nice kid. There just wern't any avenues for fun and I knew nothing else.
