  out of the organization.

  my history as a jehovahs witness could easily be summed .

  Wanderer,

  I always felt like the JW's were a tuxedo and I was a pair of brown shoes. I never fit in, as I thought too much.

  The first inkling was when I was about nine years old. I sat next to a friend at the Sunday meeting that happened to be morbidly obese. The KH I attended had folding chairs set really close together, and he took up more than his share. One of the Congregation Servants (before elder arrangement) talked to us about being homosexual. I had no clue what he was talking about, as I had no clue at that point about sex at all.

  It went downhill from there. I tried to justify the plethera of rules and regulations as a means to guide the nearly retarded brotherhood (lowest common denominator). In the end, I couldn't take it anymore.

  2. beliefs

  nutshell premise: the central doctrine of christianity is that jesus christ died in order to atone for and secure god's grace for the sins of all mankind.. then what is the central doctrine of jws?

  (it most surely is not the above.).

  iow, what, essentially, is 'the truth'?.

  Packing ?

  just curious if any other xjw's carry concealed weapons on a regular basis ?

  because of my work (job that pays the bills) and my business (will pay the bills somday) i got into the habit shortly after leaving the dubs.

  now i am a solid supporter of a law abiding, qualified citizen's right to legally carry.

  it is understandable how someone who has been a jehovahs witness .

  for a number of years could become complacent and except their lot in life.

  YES!

  After getting free from the cult, I got my associates and bachelor's degrees in 3 1/2 years. Got my BS with a 4.0 GPA.

  Pray that you can overcome the "in the box" mentality you were trained to have.

  the governing body allows the running rumor to gather speed, and pushes it along.

  that "armageddon is so close, we really mean it this time.

  what is their advantage in doing so?.

  Did you ever 'Turn Someone In' to the elders? Do you regret it now?

  by AK - Jeff in

  2. friends

  i am not proud of that, for i know the pain i caused someone as i look back.. i turned in 4 people for 'gross sins' over my tenure as a jw.

  i wish i could take it back now.

  were these people guilty of 'sin' as defined by the wts?

  Dear Jeff,

  My dear friend, do not beat yourself up! We were TRAINED to be SOB's!

  I had a freind who had been "cut off" from his wife for years tell me that he was offered (and received) a BJ from someone. I told him that he needed to tell his elders, or I would have to. He did and had his nuts cut off. Thought I did the right thing at the time. (I was a self righteous A-hole)

  I remember when they were having marital problems, and I thought, thank God that will never happen to me. My ex wife ended up having numerous afffairs, and we divorced. Before I left the Borg, I had 3 marriages and divorces. Got DF'd twice, not for immorality, thank God the last one stuck.

  Lets play golf dude!

  JWs and Love towards their families

  by R.F. in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  this is something that just popped in my mind suddenly.. but i was thinking about over the years the many comments of jws about loved ones.

  for instance, one sister was speaking of her disgust with her children not accepting the "truth".

  she gladly tells anyone of what she told them; that if they don't accept it before armageddon that it's too bad.

  Witness love is conditional.

  Witness love is not "agape," it is "a gape."

  Pray for them, because they are mind controlled. Just like Stephen said, "Forgive them, for they do not know what they do."
