Help me come up with some Elder comeback lines...

for the moment at least, my muse has been revived, and i'm wrapping up my book for "unbelieving mates".

i had started to compose a list of common jw excuses and manipulative questions, and their retorts.

it is not finished.

Jgnat-WOW!
Those are all such great responses. Wish I had them a few months ago when my family and I were getting harassed by the elders. No doubt I'll still be able to use some when I run into some old "friends". Thanks for sharing!

Why Do Inactive Ones Sometimes Go Back To The Organization?

I think some may leave the religion because of "hurt feelings" or a disagreement they may have with someone.
I know at first I thought it was localized problem. That with time the issues would go away or God would step in. I had the misconception that by moving and going to another hall it would get better......
You have to open your eyes and notice it's on a grander scale and this religion is just all around corrupt.

Help With Insomnia
by metatron in
1. jw
2. friends
i frequently have insomnia - but have found some help in getting back to sleep.. first, stop talking to yourself in your head!

if you get up to go to the bathroom, don't allow any internal dialog.. second, try doing the "wave".

you pretend that a gentle wave is moving your body in bed.

Down a nice mug of hot chamomile tea before hitting the sack....works for me everytime!

What rebellious actions did you or other do in your congregation?
by JH in
1. jw
2. friends
what rebellious actions did you or other do in your congregation, not enough to be disfellowshipped, but went a little too far.

sometimes we have to unwind .

i remember sitting in a brothers car.

HOLD ON TO YOUR HATS!!!!!!
I sat NEXT to my boyfriend during the meetings and sometimes we would hold hands! LOL!
Ohhh and I would sometimes wear skirts that were ABOVE my knees! Can't get any more rebellious than that!

Not quite sure where else to go, I'll give this place a try.

i'll introduce myself:

i'm a person who'd like to remain anonymous.

i'm 16, and recently confessed to my mother my disbelief in her religion (jehovah's witnesses, obviously so).

(((((((((HUGS))))))))
You've gotten some great suggestions already and I can't really add much more but a BIG WARM WELCOME!
Just to reiterate, hold tight until you are 18. It seems like a long time, but I promise the 2 years will go by fast.
Bottom line though, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do NOT give up on life. There is so much to enjoy when you DO break Free from this religion. Don't let them win....you are stronger than that!

JH: Then you are the one they wrote about in the box on page 21. Remember the storm clouds of Armageddon are swiftly approaching. And you don't want to be caught with a terminal illness. LOL!
I'm going to go throw up now...excuse me!
