There's no doubt in mind that this will soon happen.

Welcome.
Just don't try to be so deprogrammed that you 'throw away the baby with the bath water'.
You can still be a good human being without being a JW; just surround yourself with good, honorable people.
Again, welcome.

One step closer towards.....
by Doubtfully Yours injust yesterday i told my hubby, ever so casual and over a nice dinner conversation, that i had outgrown the organization.
that after being brought up in it and having heard the same stuff over and over again, it just didn't appeal to me anymore; and that the few meetings i did attend were pure torture.. i confessed to him i felt sorry that i couldn't help him attain privileges because of my behavior, but that if it was up to me i wouldn't step foot in another meeting for the rest of my life.. he took it well.
it felt good to get it out of my chest.

Craig,
I've made my choice, but only mentally. You see, I love my parents dearly and they're so entrapped by this cult that I feel I'll lose them if I withdraw totally. I'll lose my marriage for sure and this my husband told me also yesterday, ever so casually too.

the "annointed" witnesses
by dustyb ini just realized that the annointed won't die off.
i mean, the original annointed will die off within the next 10 years or so, but then there are the younger people that think they are annointed, but don't fall under the rules and guidelines of an annointed person (per jw).
i personally don't believe in the annointed, but something struck my fancy at the memorial.

The few "anointed" witnesses I've met have all been looneys. No one that I or any of my peers considered in their right mind.

Just one step closer towards the longest fade in JW history.
Any thoughts or other similar stories???

Looooong Prayers!
by BigJ inok, who remembers all those long prayers?
especially at the district conventions!.
we had our convetions at a small hockey arena and the stairs were really steep.

There's a brother in the hall that whenever they send him to make the prayer, if I happen to have heels on I take them off because it'll be that long!!!

How Many Reveal Themselves Totally On This Board?
by minimus insome feel that you should put out a history of who you are, what your life was and is like now and express it in a very simple way so that everyone can "know" you.
we've had posters say they were elders, elder's sisters, hurt jws, etc.
it could all be a little fantasy.
