"So I became disillusioned, disbelieved in God, depressed, then theistic again. I swear I went through these cycles at least once a month." in response to the above--- i, too, went thru this, but the difference is, i am still going thru it.....educating myself has made the emotional rollercoaster lessen now....so instead of every other month, its more like every 3 months....lol anyway, thank you for sharing ur story....hearing things like this continually help me to heal....i am 5 years out and i still struggle between guilt for not staying in and happiness for leaving.... sin

My Story: My Current Religious Experience from Birth to the Present
by the_classicist ini don't believe i've said anything about myself here, so here goes.. i was raised a jehovah's witness from birth.
my family's invovlement in this particular religion began with my great grandmother, a rather lovely woman who lived a long life who made homemade oreos which i had the occasion to enjoy once; she died firm in her beliefs.
my grandmother was subsequently raised in this religion, although not all of her brothers and sisters were, as far as i can reckon.

for some, like me, makes u feel like u r a part of something....u feel important, ppl are nice, u almost immediately have lots of friends.....i can honestly say that a few were truly my friends, even trying to contact me for sheer conversation after i left
my mom says that the organization is for those who have severe emotional problems....i used to disagree even as a df'd person, but now i seem to be agreeing more and more with her

Who REALLY controls Jehovah's Witnesses..????
by Darkside999 inlet me begin by saying i was raised in a witness household.. now that i am older i like to question things and see where they really come from.
i always found it strange that so many people would blinding think they the society has any real power or knowledge.. first of all the origins are probably evil.
as russel was a 33rd degree mason, and founed skull and bones an evil satanic cult and jehovah's witnesses?

it would be quite contradictory if jws were still associated with freemasonry because to them anything with pagan origin would be something they would be against....ex: christmas, easter, so on....
according to the things ive seen on here....somehow if they were in some way, it would not be surprising

Does the Rainbow Covenant Disprove the Flood?
by Severus inthe story goes that god provided the rainbow as a symbol of his promise to never again destroy the world by flood.. noah and his family saw the rainbow after they left the ark.
after the waters had receeded.
after it had stopped raining for months.... yet a rainbow is simply sunlight spread out into its spectrum of colors and diverted to the eye of the observer by water droplets.

What was the puspose of the flood? Why kill all the land going animals and leave the sharks alive? If he just wanted to kill the people, why not just create a virus, or wave his figurative hand and make them all disappear? What was the purpose of the flood? To catbert---regarding the above.....maybe it has something to do with the symbolism of water as a rebirth type of thing.....almost like baptism....submerging completely in water as to wash clean and become something new i dont know....just a thought
