  How I felt I lived my life

  by duffy in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  to the lowest common denominator; if there was even one ignorant soul who believed long hair or an earring on a man meant they were homosexual, or a beard made one a "filthy commie" like fidel castro, we had to groom ourselves to impress that slack-jawed yokel.

  i actually heard these reasons come out of an elder's mouth even though we were in an area that was pretty progressive for the 70's, college town and all.

  glad to be living my life for me, duffy of the "gettin' my next piercing and first tattoo in two weeks" class

  Candy

  2. beliefs

  years ago, while i was still in, i heard coworkers talk about jws leaving candy on their porch.

  i had to tell them i knew nothing about that practice and that i thought it sounded kind of cheesy to be honest.

  over the years i 've heard the same comments about jws leaving candy behind when they find no one at home...

  when did you stop believing?

  by cherryblossomgirl in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the light faded for me when i was twelve.

  i asked my uncle what happened to all the people who couldn't be reached by the "truth" in far off lands, or little kids whose parents didn't believe...ect... "would they still die in armagedon?

  " he answered yes, and from there on, whether it was bs or not, i couldn't believe.
