  The plants that JW's love to hate

  by Mindchild in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  most people who have any sustained contact with jehovahs witnesses soon discover that this organization is rather tough on certain types of plants.

  it is easy to see that small forests have been sacrificed over the decades to make the multiple millions of publications for the evangelical work or that many plants that are commonly used for personal drug use are condemned, but most people dont know about a few lonely plants growing somewhere in california that really irk the witnesses.

  these plants have a very interesting story to tell.

  My Story ..A Walk Through The Garden. part 1

  by radar in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when jehovahs witnesses first started calling on my wife and i, we knew very little about the bible.

  the message that this world with all its wickedness and suffering was soon to end and be replaced by a new order under the rulership of christ jesus was very appealing to me.

  to believe that god had a purpose for mankind, gave my life a new direction.. acceptance of watchtower doctrine along with its rules and regulations is expected of any that wish to be baptized.

  To: Ex-JW Women - Your Side

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ex-jw women: i, and i assume other ex-jw men, would enjoy hearing your views, opinions, feelings, analysis, and conclusions about your jw experience.

  how did you feel about your husband, fathers, brothers, elders, ms's, and other women in the organizations?

  did you generally feel oppression, and why?

  Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

  by Thirdson in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm not one for christmas music generally.

  mrs thirdson has been playing various cds at home and in my car when we are together and i appreciate some of the music but at this time of year i tend to hear too much.

  of course growing up i despised christmas music because it was either pagan or just too commercialized.. today i was deeply moved by james taylor's melancholy version of the oft recorded song of this title.

  Yet Another New Member

  by BadAssociation in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am yet another new member to the group because, surprise surprise, being a jw makes me miserable.

  i have been raised in the "truth" and have been hating it for a very long time.

  the congregation that i attend is a snake pit, full of judgemental, brain-washed witnesses who will report your every move.
