Go to the store now and get a test. There are some that are 2 per box. Clearblue Easy worked well (and fast) for me.

for someone who was raised in the "truth" for 17 years it was a very hard and a very scary decision when my father finnally had the "you must choose a side of the fence" speech and when i chose not to do it anymore he flipped his lid and i so "tormented" by my decsion i latched on to "maryjane" to fill the "need".

after living with my parents for two years and then on my own for two more years crying everynoght cause i was alone not knowing way i felt this way this way, i felt a spirtual need at 3:30am i drove to my dads house and beged him to let me came home because the "voices" were drivin me crazy and i needed "guidance" he said well get you a meeting with elders and a "bible study".

so i move back in, had a talk with the elders where they used the bible to call me stupid and i went to there meeting where they used what i said in private and made a whole new talk based around it i broke down crying and prayed to god for the guidacne to make me strong and make the tears stop and the holy spirt led me to this site i moved in with my brother and told my parents i can know longer belive the "truth".

You Know You Are a Cult if you...

by myself in

jw
friends

you know you are a redneck in a cult if you:

are cut off from your family or friends because they are considered a danger to your cult-like beliefs.

are taught everything through repetition,repetition,repetition.. are taught to fear for your life (everlasting) if you leave it.. question its teachings you are doomed.. everything outside of its organization is a tool of satan.

LOL! Keep them coming!

... have "gatherings" on major holidays, but don't "celebrate" them: ; ;after all, you "have the day off and it's a good time to get together. Besides, turkeys were only 39 cents/lb. this week!"

It can't be a "gathering" with any non-jw family you know. Then it would be a (gasp)party jehova doesn't approve of.

a letter to my wife: .

i just want to say a few things to you.

i am writing to you since we just don't get to talk enough.

lonelysheep

I can't imagine not having to work!

I must admit working full time and meetings made my life hell. Top that with an UBM, and you got yourself a miserable bitch.

Or tell her that she shouldn't let the fact that I am not a witness cause her to assume I am a bad person.

She shouldn't feel that way, I agree. But there is a constant emotional conflict that goes on when they push at meetings how bad it is to be wordly and forcefeed us into believing your mate shouldn't be worldly either. So even though you try to keep a happy medium, the wts is doing just the opposite.
