  moved all over the united states growing up so that my stepfather could outrun his "reputation".

  he always blamed it on me and my sisters saying that we tarnished his rep with lies about him.

  they weren't lies they were the truth and we didn't even have to tell anyone they figured it out on their own.. anyway, went from one coast to the other and back.

  I need HELP!!!!!!!!!

  2. friends

  can anyone relate and help with the nagging doubts that it really was the"truth" and we are all doing the wrong thing and being misled.

  i have read a lot of information to sway me from the witnesses and to think it is only a man made religion, but still i fear i could be wrong and going against god.

  how do you all deal with this feeling that surely most have experienced.

  hi i was just wondering, is it really different being in the witness religion as a full- fledged member than when you are studying with them.

  are you treated differently or is all this "control" people talk about over exaggerated?

  my wife is absolutely amazed that i don't know any christmas carols.

  she's asked me if i know the words to hallmark the harold angel something and i say "no".

  as a child, i was exposed to them in elementary, but like a good jw, i blocked them all out.

  it didn't seem to me this should be on the politics forum as it's not about a politician, lol.

  anyway, it seemed worthy of consideration by all.. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.

  i think this makes a very good point that all of us ladies should remember.
