  by LOLS in

  2. experiences

  i was just wondering , why would my jw husband return to been a full blown baptized jw after 20 years of fading?.

  he has spent 20 years of his life been a worldly person , with a worldly wife & kids & worldly friends .... to joining the borg full time , to getting baptized , to getting new brothers & sisters .... and to writing off most of his worldly friends (some his known his whole life ) , to trying to convince me & our children how wonderful this org is ......and anyone else who will listen :(.

  has anyone ever experienced this ...... oh and he seems to be in it 110% and no-one can say anything about this crazy org or show him proof that it all bs...... his such a clever independent , successful guy , why on earth would he go back to this , after been out for so many years & change into this domineering , opinionated fool ..... oh and his entire family also went back ... father , mother , brother & sister .

  so our family fade is well under way.

  we changed congregations as regular attenders and left in good standing with those giving hugs and kisses simply knowing we "needed a change".

  we moved to a neighboring congregation that is out of our original region knowing we would see no one and the two boe's wouldn't really have immediate dealings.

  Do you remember when you realised it was all bulls£&t

  i remember when my faith left me.

  i used to enjoy meetings and used to participate but then all of a sudden i was finding myself bored shitless at meetings.

  i was taken off the theocratic ministry school for not attending when i was due to give a talk and not long after did something naughty and got disfellowshiped.

  as a kid i knew it had to be right because we ( the family ) was in it. then it dawned on me that was no reason.

  i left school as soon as i could--went pioneering because i was guilted into it by DO Drage at an assembly. subsequently i realised i was only in it to please others. i did not believe in god and couldnt care less what the bible was supposed to be telling me.

  by then i was trapped in a loveless marriage to a born in fanatic with a crazy mother dub.

  i hated the cult and wanted out. i finally resigned when i was 23.---and have no regrets.

  i was a thriving regular pioneer, doing all thr things wholeheartedly, had 16 bible studies, 7 attending meetings regularly, 11 magazine routes and 100's of rv's.

  you can imagine i was always runnin out of literature and always a good list of books to order every month.

  (not bragging,just stating facts.all this is wasted anyway).

  Just reflecting on how oblivious I was to WT

  i’m just sitting by the beach and i was thinking at just how oblivious i was to the religion that i followed.

  i have mentioned this in past posts and am using this experience as an example not so much to demonstrate what happened but more of my reaction to it:.

  there was a kh in my local area that 5 years previous had internal renovations done it.
