  Met my first Elder after diassociation

  by aud8 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  well i met my first witness (and it would have to be an elder who i always got on well with) last night after my disassociation 3 weeks ago and i was not prepared for how hard it felt.

  i had the most human reaction of recognising someone i knew and had to stop myself saying hi.

  he just rushed past me.

  i took this pic last week on the family farm in bonnie scotland.

  her ladyship is busily munching on her toast and marmalade whilst 2 of the dogs watch and drool.. my question is this: both the dogs are top pedigree animals and weigh in at 140 pounds each.

  can you identify the breed?.

  what about the biblical truths explined by the witnesses?

  yes there are many things wrong with the organisation, but they did get a lot right - trinity, hell etc etc is anyone grateful for some of the teachings they received whilst being a witness?.

  2. friends

  i have a question:.

  if the wtbts is so into deceiving everyone and trying to reel in as many newcomers as possible, what does it actually have to gain from this?

  why are they always trying to switch teachings to make themselves look "believable"?

  2. friends

  if you remember, i've been inquiring about how to discuss jw issues with my boyfriend's sister.

  it appears she is accepting the watchtower driven interpretations of the bible, but we are still not giving up.
