  How do you talk to a child that believes Jehovah/Armageddon is real

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i'm having some serious issues with my child, she is now 5 and her mother is teaching her all sorts of things regards god, jehovah is real, in heaven, pray if you're scared, etc.

  the problem is the kid is scared of demons at night and also conflicted that i don't believe, she also figured out jehovah doesn't actually help her not to be scared.. i've tried explaining that i'm there for her, watching over at night.

  i've tried introducing her to various churches and beliefs so she understands there is a difference in believes and she likes those churches better than kingdom hall.

  Do kids you know believe in Santa Claus?

  Why?

  Did their parents say that he's real?

  Adults say some pretty silly things don't they!

  Would You EVER Go Back To Being A Jehovah's Witness?

  i could never understand why some people who know the truth about the "truth" ever go back.

  once you understand all the hypocrisy and negatives, i would think it's almost impossible to go back!.

  Soft copy for about $30,

  There are so many problems with this story that anyone who's open to the possibility can see that its just a story!

  I researched Archeological Journals and found that there is no evidence of Sodom and Gomorrah's destruction,

  The BibleTeach Book says there is,

  In western countries, public standards as well as parents with the smallest amount of common sense prevent small children from watching frightening scenes on TV

  But, in the name of religion!

  What's next?

  Armageddon?

  How Long Out Before They leave You Alone

  many years ago i met an older man in the ministry who told me he was a baptized jw years ago, when i met him he was an alchoholic and had girlfriends, i told the elders, two came by and they told me to treat him as a regular worldly guy, my question is (i know this is a fuzzy area) about how much time needs to go by before someone (me for instance) would be looked upon as a non jw worldly person?.

  Thanks everyone for your response so far,

  One thought that struck me,

  (and mixing with my own)

  is that jws, especially family are thinking:

  Come back to Jehovah,

  meaning come out of the "mud"

  Because we are "assuredly living the life of drunken gambler"

  Rather than the life of a thinking person who can't pretend to live the lie of belief anymore,

  Thanks again,

  Let's all play a game! What does this passage of the Bible tell us about Jehovah?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  2. bible

  lets play a fun game?.

  we all know that as witnesses, we were constantly told to read the bible, and ask ourselves what the passage we read reveals about god.. as an example, here is a wt that highlights this.. may 2016 wt study edition "benefit fully from jehovah's provisions".

  8 ask questions.

  Is a born-in brought up in a JW home like being a child inmate being raised in prison?

  by Still Totally ADD in

  2. beliefs

  i bring up this subject because of all the restrictions children have to endure in the jw cult.

  they are made prisoners of mind and body.

  being forced to do things that are not natural for children to do.

  Every day I was sent off to school I was told "You know who you are"

  That meant that I was "different" and that I was representing Almighty God,

  If I misbehaved it was going to make Him look bad,

  I think that's quite a lot of responsibilty to throw on a six year old,
