The most useless thing you ever purchased
by Nosferatu inso, what's the most useless thing you ever purchased?
i'm not sure about mine, but for a while i was wanting to buy the "video nag".
it was a $10 vhs tape, featuring 23 minutes of some ugly hag continually bitching.. btw, this is a recycled post.

Introduction
by indoubt ini am new to this discussion forum and i wanted to introduce myself.
my story is rather ordinary when compared to other members of this board.. first of, i am still a baptized (irregular) jw.
as many jws, i started having doubts when viewing the dateline show regarding child molestation withing the jws.

Welcome Indoubt!!! Glad to have you here.
Your story about your "doubts" were exactly as mine...Dateline pedophile special about 2 years ago, started it all for me. I only went in the door to door for 2 more times after that...it was just to embarrassing to say we have the "true" religion when we are guilty of things that the Catholic Church has done.
We relocated over a year ago, as of last June, I officially started fading here, my husband had already been a meeting "submarine"...lol...We feel the same way about being "lied to by the WTBS"...and we were both raised in the "truth". I started "lurking" at this site about 1 year ago....petrified to post for months!!!
You have had some great advise concerning your question: faking it...is the best!!! After my divorce, I had some dating activitiy that "bothered my conscience"..so I did what your wife did: turned myself in. IT was the worst thing I could have ever done. Although only 2 elders gave me private reproof...I had enough guilt BEFORE they showed up....and Jehovah already knew my heart. I regret ever calling the elders and would NEVER give them the priviledge of knowing something that I had already confessed to Jehovah.

Did The "Ressurection Hope" Keep You Involved As A Witness?
by minimus ini know a number of persons that remained as jws because they desperately wanted to see their loved ones come back from the grave and be there to welcome them.
they were afraid that if they died at armageddon or were not totally faithful that there would be a great possibility of never seeing them again........was that "ressurection hope" a big draw for you remaining a witness?
-
codeblue
Yes it did!!! But, I can't say it was the "only factor" to keep me involved. I was a very young teen when my Mom died, the resurrection hope was a great comfort for me....I desperately wanted to see her again..

Why I don't celebrate Easter. Warning: pity party going on in this thread
by CeriseRose ini think back to when i was a kid...a non-jw one.
easter was the time of new dresses, chocolate bunnies (you had to bite the ears off first to make sure it was the solid kind), ham with the little cloves stuck right in it, and peaceful family time.. during my jw years i didn't 'celebrate' it, but it slowly but surely became a 'family' time.
my flesh and blood sister (jw) and all my step family (non-jw) would congregate at the parents' place and we'd play games and eat and laugh.

(((Cerise))) I was a young teen when my Mom died...although many years has passed and I have learned to cope with her loss, it hurts my heart that others like yourself are going thru this pain. Please know that my thoughts are truly with you at this time, and please know that with time comes healing.
