many times i have asked my jw relatives questions that they've been unable to answer with anything other than, "good question, i'll get back to you on that.

" for some reason, they never actually do get back to me on them.

so, now here's the opportunity for the jehovah's witnesses and their supporters on this forum to either answer some of these questions or concede that they have no answer.

In about two months here you have allowed strangers to undo all the love and teaching that your parents have put into you.

no... in two years.

But its true that this site has pushed things faster.

Your comment mentions the exact thing I was worried about:

1. Maybe the JWs are wrong and have been brainwashin me, so therefore its good that I have come to this site to confirm that theyre wrong.

2. Maybe JWs are right, and Im being brainwashed by this site.

Im beginning to feel the doubt all over again. Its so difficult.

I've got a question for them: Why is it okay to drink alcohol "in moderation", but it's not okay to buy a lottery ticket "in moderation"?

let me guess... because they "say so" ?

you also get addicted to coffee. Maybe, a long time ago in the ancient village Kafé in Africa, where coffee origins from, they were using coffee in a spritual ceremony to open up for the demons... lol

I think they drink A LOT of coffe on bethel, while studying 10 hours per day...

WHERE IS filip, anyways?

sorry I havent been here. I went to sleep at about page 7, and now its up on 12!

for the moment Im doing pretty good. Since last monday, me and my parents havent talked about me and my worries.

I&P:

Filip, you have a PM

Do you mean, that YOU sent me a PM? Cause I havent got one from you in my inbox.

About sexual abuse: This is a topic we have long been talking about in our family, and I have always gotten the impression that all the statements about sexual abuse within the org. are false. Is that correct?

Also, my parents have always warned me, that if I ever would have any problems with them, I should NEVER go to the local communities, or my school counseler etc. cause they were afraid that the local comunities then would come and take me and my little brother away from them, as a result of them thinking my parents were treating me badly.

Can I seek the school counseler and talk with him about this, not being afraid that Im going to be removed from my family?

afin what do you mean? just because I replied to logansrun topic about phone sex, that has nothing to do with me getting involved with porn.

youre right, I am not sorry for my "gutter" talk, cause I was being sarcastic. I dont think "gutter" talk is wrong, so what do I have to be sorry for.

I dont think this site only is for adults. I can think for myself as much as anybody else, even if Im only 15 years old, and for the matter of fact, I think most 15 year olds can.

I dont have any hard feelings afin, I know you want me to listen to the bible and JW, but the ones on this site wants me to the opposite. In the end it all comes down to the faith. Were all just people, someone have one oppinion, others have another opnion, especially with religion.

Its just for me to find out.
