The Hermit's story PART 1

by The Hermit in

my great-grandmother was a jw, my grandmother is a jw, my mother and two of my aunts are jws.

in 1983 mom, then 18 years old married my father, a wordly man and was baptized later the same year at a district convention.

i was born in 1984.. my bedtime stories consisted of the bible stories and you can live forever books.

Your mother sounds like my ex wife's mother. She was a raving Rutherfordite...used to fill my kids heads with evil spirit nonsense. Total poison dwarf.

Returning

by Doubtfully Yours in

i was a member of this community a long time ago and have lurked for years.

well, i am back and still thoroughly conflicted, with my heart/loyalties as divided as ever.

please welcome me back, hear me out, and make me feel as welcomed as before.. the wtbts has changed so very much in recent years that i feel trapped in a completely different religion altogether.

welcome back to the site.

I can honestly say that in the congregations I am not alone so we of like minds keep each other company while enduring the misery of the Organization.

just brilliant---imagine if an entire congregation felt the same way lol

this article suggests that there are projects being halted, but chelmsford isn't one of them.

To all JDub lurkers: How can you continue to preach knowing that you are telling lies?

by macys in

this is a damn serious question.

you must know by now that jerusalem was not destroyed in 607 bce and that 607 was initially picked by ct russell by using his "pyramid scheme" measurements.

there is no hiding these facts yet you continue to preach this nonsense.

i must admit--after i quit in 1971--i used to occasionally attend just to keep the wife halfway endurable---but i hated it--and it must have been obvious. and it was even more obvious that several elders did NOT want me there either.

i really do think if a fader can make a clean break its best all round--or youre only postponing the inevitable.

Anytime you set foot in a KH and attend meetings and are counted while being seated you are in effect preaching this BS by your actions; you are in effect showing others around you that you endorse this bullshit weather you are going to keep ties with friends and family or not.

i totally agree.
