Seeing JWs in a positive light.
by ScoobySnax innot a new light, just a positive light.. sometimes on here i worry that all jws are painted with a bad brush when i know that not to be the case.
today i was looking after a jw patient on the ward and she was the most wonderful old girl you could meet, she really made me smile, and she was bright as a button.
later her family came in, who i didn't recognise and they were just as pleasent.

I'm sure there must be some nice ones out there, but i haven't met one yet. That doesn't mean they don't exist- it just means that the ones i have dealt with were heartless. Sad but true.

Is country music more approved than any other for a witness?
by wordlywife inmy husband has recently started listening almost exclusively to country.
occasionally we would listen to it before, but every time i get in a car he has driven or we are riding he has it on, when before we always had classic rock on.
i don't mind country music, but this recent change of listening habits in light of his having commenting priveledges back again makes me wonder if listening to anything but country is frowned upon by wt ordinances?

Hi worldly wife---- I sang with a Jw for 5 years in a local country band. The elders told him to stop singing with me-- too much association with a non -witness you know. But they never said a word about the songs that we sang- and my partner sang a lot of conway twitty songs such as i've already loved you in my mind and tight fittin jeans. Hard to understand isn't it.... Sugarbritches

When does the "anger" subside.....?
by ScoobySnax inhaving never felt "anger" as such toward jws or the organisation myself, it is apparent that many here do.
sometimes just by reading the thread title it is clear in many how they feel, so for more seasoned posters, or maybe those who have been out longer, how long does this anger take to fade, if it ever does.
maybe you never felt like that anyway.

HI- i hate to admit it but i am still angry after a little less than 2 years- i realize that's not very long really but at first i was just hurt and then when the hurt started becoming less- i felt the anger set in and it has yet to lessen or go away. Still. I do feel agreat sense of relief. It's so great to know those people have no control over me and my life anymore.. sugarbritches

What was your turning point?
by jeanniebeanz inwhat was it that was the real eye opener for you?.
for me, it was after watching the video, "jehovah's witnesses; a non-prophet organization," and the point on how the org puts itself in a place between jesus and mankind.
a position which does not exist scripturally.

Hi seeitallclearlynow--- and everyone. You said that the reinstatement is more painful that the disfellowshiping- how is that? I have a friend who is about to be reinstated and I'm just curious. Thanks- Sugarbritches

shunning
by sugarbritches inthe witnesses have all told me that they aren't allowed to talk to a df'd person because the bible says to treat him as a man of the nations, as a tax collector-- yet they talk to men of the nations, they talk to tax collectors.
so where does it say they are to shun a df'd person- that they have to treat the person as though he isn't even in the room?
to me, this is so cruel.-sugarbritches
