Hello, I am new

i am not a jehovah's witness but i am very interested, i have many questions and hope they can be answered here.. i do believe in god, privately.

i do say my prayers daily and do believe god helps me in countless ways.

but i don't go to any church.. i have always been impressed at how smart, polite and nice jehovah's witnesses are and i always make time to speak to them when they call at my door.

no, we havent.

on the contrary, when we have discovered that our beliefs were not completely in line with the bible, we have changed our beliefs.. is this correct?.

What was the most rebellious thing you did while you were a devout jw?
by DuvanMuvan in

2. friends
i was just thinking about how humans being imperfect and satan's influence was the root of everything bad that anyone has ever done.

well i know that apparently everyone is vulnerable which got me thinking about what "bad" things people have done while they were a jw.

i'll start it off.

Avoid Going back to the JW's - Educate Yourself about Mind Control
by flipper in
1. jw
2. friends
i've talked with some good friends on the board about this before and we seem to be in agreement : one reason ( among many ) that some disfellowshipped jw's go back and return to the wt organization is because they are full of uneeded guilt or uneeded fear because they haven't educated themselves about how the wt society uses mind control tactics to deceive them into thinking they have " nowhere else to go " .

i understand that some dfed ones may go back to the organization for family and friends- however- it's an exrecise in futility because once you learn the truth about the truth you cannot undo what you heard.

so some may just go back and live a fake jw life to appease family- but just think of how that can damage a person's emotional and mental health playing the fake jw game the rest of their lives !

i remember reading a thread when my exit was starting, about inspirational songs.

someone posted a link to the "shins" for a fool.

Great Music
by Berengaria in
1. social
2. entertainment
it appears that many of the best music threads have been purged.

i can't imagine the formula that would eliminate such wonderousness while preserving "involuntary muscular contractions", but so it is.. the first offering.
