Smelly Onions,

Many on this forum can't conform to the WT's high moral standards, so of course they'll use whatever they can to justify their own messed up behavior.

I just read a thread of a couple them describing their drugged out stages, with pictures and all.

Then, of course, these are the same people that are ever so ready to blame the WBTS for all their misery.

GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!!!!!

What Was THE Straw That Broke Your "Camel'...

by Francois in

there are lots of outrageous things that have happened to each of us in our longer or shorter association with the jay-dubs.

but it's amazing sometimes what teeny things have been the final straw.. being raised as a jw, i swallowed most stuff whole my entire life.

then, as a teen began to question some things, but waited patiently for jehovah to straightened things out.

The '1914 generation' doctrine change, back in 1995, did me in big time!

Never been the same since, and don't think it'll ever quite the same ever again.

Why would someone who has disassociated allow their child to be taken to KH

by Agnes in

jw
friends

i just read the listeners post about baptisms at the district conventions and didn't want to disrupt the thread.

i'm curious, why would someone allow their child to attend the kh or district convention and possibly be pressured into getting baptized?

agnes

These are the type of nonsense people whose children become the easiest targets of abusers because they're not supervised and rather deposited into anyone's hand in the name of 'free babysitting'.

Of course, if anything happens to their 'precious child' while the 'free babysitting' is going on, they're more than ready to blame the WBTS when the real reason why their child has been abused or coerced in any way, shape or form is because the PARENTS/GUARDIANS have neglected their responsibility.

2005 "Godly Obedience" District Convention Report

by CyrusThePersian in

i don't post much and this is the first thread i've ever started so please bear with me.

i wanted to give my obsevations on the 2005 "godly obedience" district convention.if the things i say are redundant, i apologize.

anyways, i was coerced into going by my daughter.

I'm sure not looking forward to this boredom fest. I must attend, though, for now.

I'll go Saturday and Sunday, I guess. It's somewhat mentally painful to sit through a whole session these days. I suffer enough as it is when attending a regular meeting, and much more so when I have to sit a whole day and listen to the same old thing.

when that gut feeling turns out to be right.............

by happehanna in

.

i was concerned about my friend and worried as they hadn't returned my calls or emails, so i thought i would travel to see him, and find out if my bad feeling was nothing to worry about.. he had died and i will miss him, i knew, my insides knew and it hurts.. he was my secret and it seems to hurt more as i have no-one to share the grief with.

Doubtfully Yours

Happehanna,

Sorry about your loss.

I need some help. How do you deal with your JW family

by Apostanator in

my whole family is in the troof.

i am at a point were i want to present them a book on cults.

i have nothing to lose as they have dis-owned me for years and have only recently came back into my life as a result of my moms illness ( alzeimers ) these people are driving me nuts!!!

Doubtfully Yours

Apostanator,

I feel your pain. Most of my relatives are JWs, and such the nice bunch of people that I really enjoy outside of their JWism. Therefore, in order to keep communication with them, I play their game and stay semi-JW, otherwise they'd all alienate me.

I have high hopes for reform in this regard, since the die-hard JW generation is literally dying off.
