at this point I'd really rather not have known.
I don't understand why people tell you things that 1) are in the past 2) they know will hurt you 3) will irreperably damage the relationship ???

This is probably very immature of me, but
by Crumpet inlast night my ex boyfriend finally admitted to me that he cheated on me whilst we were going out.
we split up about 7 years ago.
what is irking me most is that i've asked him before if he had and he totally denied it.

new light and old testament/new testament differences
by rebel8 inthe wts claims that jws have been around since abel, right?
so this means, throughout history, jws have existed.....by jws i mean "god's true people".
therefore, jws were first just regular jws.

Once you get them to realize it is not god that's leading the WTS, then everything else can fall into place after that.
Once I realized that 'new light' was just a bunch of bullsh*t nobody had to tell me to leave. The GB are such incredible liars - Abel was the first JW, puhleeezzzzzzzzzze

Put your head down and trudge ahead sinis. You're right, no degree = dead end job + poverty in your old age!If I left my job of 5 years to look for something comparable WITHOUT a degree I'd have a very hard time. I could be a purchasing clerk, but the pay would be about 55% less than what I'm making now, even though I have over 8 years of experience! I've been on haitas trying to figure out what I want to do. But I'm going back in the fall to finish the last 10 required classes for a degree in business management. I have 5 electives I can either test out of or take at community college. But come heller-highwater I got to get that piece of paper!
Witlesses live in a fantasy world. How many seniorsin the borg are living with the harsh reality of not planning for retirement? Maybe your wife should speak to some of the olders ones in the congreation to get a clearer picture.

Crumpet - here is my two cents. Friendship to me is about trust and loyalty. His not telling you about his extracurricular activities AFTER you admitted YOURS and asked him again if he did the same is blatant dishonesty. Then to shun you adds insult to injury.
I'm picky about my friends but I also realize that real friends are hard to find so I don't discard them casually. Some questions to ask yourself; if you called on him for bail would he be there? If you were sick and needed a bowl of chicken soup would he bring it over? Would he ever betray your confidence? In other words, does this friendship have something to offer you besides someone to talk to and hang out with once in a while? If it doesn't, give him a piece of your mind and move on. If it does, give him a piece of your mind and move forward with the friendship. We all do stupid things sometimes. I'd give him just a teensy bit of credit for finally coming clean. That indicates that you mean something to him.

Did you blindly accept all the JW teachings?
by JH ini was the "good jw", that accepted everything they taught, without even thinking of searching to see if it was true.
and how could i have searched to see if what they preach was true?
i don't speak hebrew or greek.

Yes I did ... hook, line and sinker. It never even occurred to me that they might be lying to me. I mean really, these are people with the highest of all moral standards. They would never blatantly lie to me - would they? I think that logic is part of the reason the R&F put up with 'new light'. They don't believe that the GB would deliberately deceive them. By the time I witnessed the third flip-flop, I didn't care if it was intentional or not - they were lying!!!!!

They wonder why they are losing people???
by LongHairGal ini have to laugh at how hard they try to bring people in by knocking on doors and rv's - but once the people are in they are pushing them out the back door with both hands!
we all remember how hard it was to stay there (even if you believed it all) - let alone the head-trips they put you through!!
listen to this.

What on earth is one to do with such a small pool to choose from? .
Again I say, if the GB would relax their standards they could retain more members along with (gasp) increasing the level of joy in the congos. Alas, they continue to preach "your happiness is not our concern, just do what
weJehovah says and that should be sufficent for you".(sweet tee of the 'so glad it ain't me' class)

Great news! Keep it up you Gutless Boobies, the more you tighten your grip the more witnoids will come to their senses and forsake the sh*t sessions altogether. Not to mention the youths who are already totally fed up with your dribble, and think their parents are NUTS for following this cult. Believe me, they're just biding their time (like dune ) escape is inevitable.

My Mom Requests They Don't Announce Her Name If She Is Sick--- On Platform
by minimus inmy mother's so disillusioned by the elders, circuit overseer and society for removing her as a pioneer for going to my daughter's wedding in which she married an "unbeliever", that she has told the elders not to even announce her name if they find out she's been sick or could use some welcomed calls.
nope!
she just wants them to stay away from her as long as is possible.

I'm glad to hear that the witlesses lack of love has finally become apparent to your mum. What a terrible way to treat someone after years (how many?) of loyal, full-time book sales! They do not know the definition of the word love - let alone how to manifest what they call 'agape' love . Your mother loved her daughter enough to be there for her special day - but the elders cannot see past the assimilation factor as regards the 'unbeliever' and felt they would 'show her' - humph. I hope for the sake your fam. that they've lost a salesperson!!!
