i was wondering if this was being taught in the congregations.

my sister who is still a jw told me this the other day when i said that the wtbts has only been around for a short time, relatively speaking.. my mother, who hasn't been to a meeting in years, agrees with her.

what is being taught now with regards to this, does anyone know?

i've read alot of stories on the sextuplets, and it's great to have the media reporting 'bad' light on the no-blood policy & jws in general.

but, we need to ramp it up.

the media is missing the big story - the fraction lie.

Did feel that you were at a mental breaking point at the point of leaving?

prior to you leaving the org did you come to the conclusion that if you didnt actually take the step and leave, that you would run into serious mental difficulty.. i really feel that for 5 years proir to my finally leaving i was quite impaired mentally by the teachings and practices of the org.

it was coming to a head though when i finally announced that i was leaving.

i really felt that i was under intense mental pressure and that if i didnt get out then i may end up doing something serious.

i have a 3 year old girl, and she is wild... she has recently started completley disobeying, talking back, slamming doors, spitting at me etc.

it is getting miserable to go anywhere because she throws fits, runs around resturants screaming.

at dance class, her teacher had to send her off the floor because she was the only kid running around and woud not listen.
