  Where did God go??

  by fairchild in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it has been over 10 months now since i stopped going to the kingdom hall.

  i had imagined how i would really find my way to god now that i was no longer being misled by the wts ( for - profit) publishing company.

  i kept reading the bible, because people on jwd had told me how i would see it in a different light.

  Fairchild, I was raised a JW but was never baptized. I left when I was 18 and it has been over 20 years that I have been away from it. During that time I went through cycles of disbelief, being p.o.'d at God, apathy, you name it.

  I think its like what people always tell you about romance, when you try to force it, that doesn't work, and when you least expect it romance blooms. I think being spiritual can be the same way, when you try and force it, or think it has to be a certain way, the more you try the farther you get away from it. I think maybe just trying to be and let your spirituality come naturally is a much better way to go.

  gawd, i forgot how immersed jw's are.

  everything you see has some part of the wts involved with it, from the calendar on the fridge to the pictures on the walls, you can't get away from it.

  of course i love my brother to death, but i tell ya, i've only been here overnight and it's already getting to me.

  Those calanders are just so bad because they are like posters for the Stepford Witnesses. The pictures are just so lame, with the little families talking to the enraptured householders, or pictures of some frog eyed kid NOT getting eaten by a lion while it pulls its tail, with all the little scriptures all over. Those things are demon posessed if anything ever was, they just scream "You are getting sleepy, sleepy, you have no will, the WBTS knows what's best for you, obey, obey."

  WLG,

  I just had a flash of you like some poor Viet Nam vet having a flashback about being back in the jungle fighting Charlie.

  I can see you running out of the house screaming, "I won't go back"

  2. bible

  recent posts have encouraged us all to be more tolerant of others beliefs whether those are religious, atheist or anything in the middle.

  fair enough.

  still, that doesn't mean i'm going to go easy on all you believers, yes even you jw lurkers who are reading this.. .
