  They told us to turn our backs on loved ones!

  i would like to raise a subject that i bet all you long-time posties have already discussed:

  when a person enters the org having already had a life outside it, he/she is told that family and friends must take a back seat.

  further to that, some individuals will even 'council' you that total departure from those you love would be wise and indeed expected!

  Those that would never miss a meeting or field service no matter what...

  did you know a few in your congregation that would never miss a meeting, no matter what.

  even if it was 20 below zero or 100 f or if they were sick, they would be there anyways.. these people irritated me, because they wanted to show how good they were.. did you know any like that?

  JW Distinctions w/o a Difference

  by Amazing1914 in

  distinctions without a difference:

  issues regarding jw beliefs and teachings bugged me going into the religion, and bugged me until i left.

  they are those oh so all-important claims they make that other religions are doing such bad things ... yet they do the same thing ... but, they manage to draw some kind of technical distinction that really makes no difference.
