  when you were in the truth did you find websites like this and read what the other side has to say?

  i am in that stage and i feel as if i'm seeking out the ttatt.

  i feel the wt society is hiding way too much.

  "I'm thinking of getting reinstated just so I can get my family back."

  by Julia Orwell in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  this was just said to me by a friend who was disfellowshipped just over 2 years ago.

  she just had a miscarriage, and her partner dumped her rather than supported her through this process.

  she told her jw parents, and they refuse to even call her or offer her any emotional support.

  JW religion is not all that bad really

  by veen in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know we all have issues with the borg, but really i think there are far more despicable religions on the go, namely american style evangelical christianity.

  i'm watching a film called 'jesus camp' as i type and all i can say is any of you idiots who post on here who say you left the jw's and have now found jesus are totally retarded.

  you really need to get a grip on reality and stop needing religion as a crutch.

  To the Christians...

  by VoidEater in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  to the christians on the board:.

  thank you for living up to the best your beliefs have to offer.

  with very few exceptions, my flailings and rantings as i refine my own "truth" have been greeted with patience and kindness, or kindly ignored.. i do not foresee that i will ever return to a belief system that you hold dear, yet i do respect your beliefs - and appreciate your insights.

  Have I become like those I despise?

  by Hortensia in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  well, yes, as a matter of fact.

  i have become a desperate, needy, clingy burden on my friends, so depressed i don't know what to do.

  every day i say, pull up your socks, put one foot in front of the other.

  Witness Kids - Scared silly by the WTBTS

  by misspeaches in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i wonder if anyone else who grew up as a jw can relate with me on this subject.. i grew up hearing stories of 'faithful brothers & sisters' being tortured to a point where they were almost dead.

  all they had to do to be set free was renounce jehovah and their religon.

  the stories i heard of torture were graphic in nature and to this day i can not handle hearing about torture or watch it being portrayed in movies.

  Why did Death not stop as soon as the RANSOM was paid?

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  terry's recent thread about god's love made me start wondering the above question.

  normally a ransom is done as a swap, the payment is made on exchange.

  2000 years ago jesus made payment by dieing.
