Did becoming a JW influence you to give up something you enjoyed ?

by smiddy3 in

when i was a teenager a younger fellow workmate was involved in the sport of judo.i got interested and went along to a number of sessions and took to it like a sponge to water ,and as a sport i was happy participating in.. not that much longer another workmate was getting re-activated in the religion of jw`s.

which i had never heard o before and then got interested in that .. conflict : was judo a sport that was compatible with j.w beliefs?

sadly i decided it was not and stopped any further involvement.. to this day i resent that decision i made back then .and i`m 82 years old now.. it was a sport i was comfortable doing and i enjoyed it.and i gave it up because of the religion .who knows what i may have achieved had i continued with it.

the JW cult influenced me to give up masturbating, as a young teenager.

I failed

i think anyone who looks forward to a mass execution of the vast majority of humankind is seriously mentally diseased.

Starting September 01, 2022, the Angels will help in the ministry work

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

2022 governing body update # 6. what exciting news david splane has for all jehovah's witnesses ( who for the last three years were spared the house-to-house preaching work ) '' that we'll return to the ministry september 01, 2022. just in time for our world wide campaign to start bible studies.

and, i'm sure the angels are excited too, because it will give them opportunities to help us with our ministry.''.

not only will the witnesses be rusty in their return to the field ministry, the angels in heaven have been sitting idle while the pandemic stopped the house-to-house ministry.

question/s for the PIMO

by enoughisenough in

to maintain the facade of being a jw, when doing the ministry, are you not advocating for the gb?

the bible studies, after all are to get people to understand they can't gain life without the "faithful slave" ( you have to be baptized as jw to survive) .how does it make you feel?

if you are parroting an answer in a paragraph that you know is wrong, how does it make you feel?

i tried being pimo 50 years ago--long before it became the IN word amongst the ex jw fraternity. It didnt work for me--in fact i hated it--and was glad to be out completely--and be called "apostate" in an announcement in the k-hall ( i wasnt there--in fact--never been since ).

But i can understand why some choose to stay PIMO for the sake of family--and not wanting to go through what i had to. But a PIMO elder---? that really is a bridge too far.
