Do You Still Think & Act Like A Witness??
by minimus in
1. jw
2. friends
one of the criticisms i see on this board, especially if one points out a similarity between jws and jwd or other similar discussion boards, is that a person is still seeing things in the eye of a jehovah's witness.

what's your take on that?

?

I just finished Crisis of Conscience...

thanks to ray franz for writing it.

parts of the book have been talked about on the board before, but holy $#!+...seeing page upon page of evidence kept my jaw in a constant drop.... a few thoughts.... >franz seems to have little malice for the org, and it shows in the book.. >i looked at it with a very skeptical eye (as i do everything) and tried to see it from the perspective of a witness who sincerely believed.

i was still floored by the callousness of the comments of these people.. > control really does seem to be the watchword for these folks, and they've trained the rank and file well.

Hi

i am not a former jw, but my mother has been one for years and as you all know, that affected me as well.

i was raised catholic in a nice part of queens ny, and for the most part i never had a problem with my faith.

when i turned ten or so, my mother became entrenched in the jehova witnesses, and has not looked back since.

i cant bring myself to get into voting.

i am registered, but when its time to vote, i just really never fell the urge to get there and get it done.

my husband is very political, and is always talking politics and about the importance of voting.

Hi everybody! ^^

i must say that i have been lurking around this place for a good long while.

to know that you are not alone in your quest to escape the watchtower is one of the best ways to actually do it.. right now i'm 18, but became an unbaptized publisher at 12. i blew those elders away with my skill at parroting back the wts doctrine, and for a while, i was faithful enough in service, which i didn't really enjoy, but i had to do it to live, right?

we went to meetings regularly, even thosugh i simply dreaded the boredom and the inevitable guilt i would feel.

just came from the assembly.

they critisized us for going house to house implying that it was cheating the system and just a way to get fs hours with out talking to people.

now they want jws to do mostly bus and business witnesses in the afternoon during weekdays.
