  Do Jehovah's Witnesses crave an 'Amish Paradise'?

  by Gill in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  from as long as i remember the watchtower society has painted an idyllic rural scene for their future existence on the planet earth, free from the non jehovah servers that live now.. my mother regularly talks about her 'little donkey and cart' that she's going to own in the 'new system of things'.. so do the jehovah's witnesses dream of living in an 'amish paradise' minus the amish, of course?.

  do they have any idea what kind of nightmare existence that entails, especially adding on top of that five meetings a week, continuing fs, studying etc?.

  I have lived in northern Indiana in a small very Amish and Mennonite (sp?) community.. I was a JW at the time so I also called on many of them out in service...

  they really live a different life than the dubs do..

  JH, I'm really sorry to hear about your dad. I don't have answers from you about what happens after death. All the beliefs confuse me now. We were always taught everyone else's belief was wrong.. so what to believe when you lose faith in the JWS? I don't know..

  I'm also sorry that no JW came to support you..

  Faders: Would you prefer attention from the elders or not?

  by ringo5 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this question may produce some flaming, but so be it.

  i've noticed many are freaked out, annoyed, worried, or simply felt harrassed when faced with the prospect of a visit from the elders when trying to fade.

  others, or at times the same ones, complain that they recieved no inquiry from them at all or very little.

  I don't worry any more but then again they have no clue where I am and the area I live in, I never attended meetings.

  but if they did find me, I'd have much less of an anxiety attack. I'd simply ask them to leave and shut the door or hang up.

  I have no time for nonsense.. If I cared about going back I'd be willing to talk but I never will.. thus I have no time for them
