  Depressed and doubting...

  i've been out for 8 years, and for the first time in my life i am doubting.. not big doubts, but little ones.

  it's all the middle east and the "peace and security" talk.

  i feel like armageddon is coming.. the brainwashing never ends.

  The pope and hepatitis

  by dura-luxe in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  i was recently reminded of the jw line that "even the pope" once got contaminated blood.

  you know, what they say when they run out of scriptures and try to pretend that their stance is really about health and not about fear of dying armageddon (like they'd let their child die if they weren't jw's.

  so i decided to do something that no jehovah's witness ever does, which is actually double check some facts.

  ok, mike and i went to the circuit assembly today at the mca at the university of maine (where i go to school).

  we made it through the first half and it went faster than i thought.. .

  this is me and my friend jenn (another ex-jw) the night before the assembly at 10:30pm getting drunk before heading out to the bar where we got really drunk and danced and had a great time.

  Problem recieving Watchtower & Awake "again"

  by Dolllie in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i posted earlier in the summer about some "racist" witnesses who told me that i could not recieve the watchtower & awake magazines, or attend the kingdom hall, because i was black & blacks were not able to understand the bible, "it was not for them".. i wrote a letter to the watchtower society & got a response!.

  i moved out of that immediate area, a couple of towns(about 40 minutes away).

  i contacted the watchtower society after moving here to have someone bring me the watchtower & awake.

  They hired a JW at my job

  2. friends

  a new girl was hired at my job, and within 4 days it came out that she was a jehovah's witness.

  amazing how you could go years without knowing another coworker's religion, but we all had to know about this girl within 4 days.

  they had an assembly this weekend, and of course, we all knew exactly why she was taking the day off.

  Need some advice

  by dura-luxe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i knew this was coming.

  mom's been going back to the kingdom hall for about a year now, and i figured that, much like my father, i would have to cut off all contact with her at some point.

  it looks like now might be that time.
