J-Dubs and hypocrisy.
by corproal ini went to reno for father's day week-end and stayed at the grand sierra resort (formerly know as reno hilton or the mgm grand many years ago) and i happen to decided to head downstairs to do a little bowling and lo and behold i saw all of these men and women walking back and forth in ill fitting suits and dresses and was wondering what was going on.
i decided to investigate and found out they were having a conventian at the hotel and casino.
i though it a bit hypocritical for them to have the convention at this place so i went over and asked a guy who looked as if he were an elder and asked him why out of all places they decided to have a convention at a casino.his answer was there was no ther space available for that particular week-end .i know this to be an all out lie.the convention center is down the street a few miles and i inquired about availability and was told that there was space but the group that originally requested ,decided to go elsewhere.. so my question is doesn't this sound a bit weird?you should have seen how miserable the teenagers were having to sit through hours of boredom.. by the way i'm not a witness,my wife was ,but decided not to go back after being disfellowshipped for the last 15 years..

New method of witnessing.
by corproal in.
i recently was at a bagel shop here in san jose,ca and while waiting i noticed something weird.at the back of the bagel shop was a little area that had one of those clear file holders,i was curious and went to investigate,to my surprise there were two issues of awake one in english and the other in an asian language.inside the awake was a copy of the watchtower.printed on the file holder was a message that basically said if you need any more information on starting that if you're interested in a bible study to call such and such number.i found this rather odd,the other curious thing is i haven't seen any witnesses in my neighborhood in almost 6 months.i guess they figured out that door to door work osn;t as effective.. craig

OK believers, time to put up or shut up...
by Gregor inapparently, a large percentage of xjw's who post on this site have embraced some other form of god/jesus belief to replace the wt doctrine.
most of them fall into the "i accept the lord jesus christ as my personal savior" class.
they are still extremely attached to the old "forgiveness of sin through the shed blood of jc" line.

Look at the Heart.
by mdb inwho knows the heart of men?
the scriptures say that only god knows the hearts of men.... yhwh.
but the lord said to samuel, do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because i have refused him.

Got in an argument with fiances family
by corproal inhere is an example of how brainwashed witnesses are even if the facts are in front of their faces.. .
re: read this if you have the guts.. body:how dare you speak like that to my sister.
plus 99% of the things you read on the internet about the witnesses is false and i should know that because i am one.

The funeral
by MadamDefiance ini guess you could say i grew up as a lamb in the organization.
encouraged to get baptized at age 14 so i followed the crowd of eager robots thinking it would impress mom.
(such a fine christian sister) hey that's all i knew at that time.

"Cornered" a street cornerer today
by Jez inthought today that i would try to get some questions answered.
i wanted to see if he could answer my concerns and was looking forward to a nice discussion or some peace regarding some things that are driving me crazy.. so, i saw this older 'wise' looking gentleman on the street holding up some mags.
so, i approached him.

My story
by beachbugg init's really good to read stories of other people that have experienced some of the same things i have.
i haven't ever posted or even talked to another ex-jw except for my uncle who i have just recently started a relationship with.
the sad thing is that i am 30 years old and i am still struggling with the past....i'm soo sick of it.
