1.Your physical attractiveness.

I'm going with a 7 here. I modify my body to appear as I desire... but I'm not done. So a 7 for incompleteness.

2.Your intelligence.

I make mistakes, but I learn from them. 8 for evolutionary inconsistencies.

3.Your Personality.

9. I LOVE me, but sometimes other people don't seem to see eye to eye with me on that. But my opinion matters to me.

Who got a FREE PASS in your Kingdom Hall

by NotaNess in

this has probably been a topic before, but why not re-hash?!.

who in your kindom hall got away with the way they acted or things they did, just because they were a jw, and what was it?.

In the congregation I used to belong to, a 17 year old baptized elder's son was recently caught smoking marijuana while at school. His friends ratted him out as a dealer, and the police actually conducted a huge search of his house and found felony amounts of marijuana.

If this kid was an adult, he'd be looking at a big prison sentence. But he isn't.

Guess what he got???

How much have you changed since you left the JWs..........

by fifi40 in

jw
friends

the reason that i ask this question is for two reasons mainly.. firstly, my experience as a jw and within the various congregations i was part of, was that they were a very mixed bag.

there were those who were very devout, studious and appeared to be very humble and placid in nature.

there were those that were very judgemental of others.

RichieRich

As a JW, I was under tons of stress, and never comfortable at home or at the Kingdom Hall. I fought depression because of the anxiety I felt about living a double life. I was submissive, yet irritable.

Now, I am free to do what I want. I'm surrounded by people who love and support me. When someone fails to meet thos qualifications, I have no problem telling them what's wrong, and where to go. My self worth is more than likely unnecessarily high, and I'm happy to wake up every morning and look in the mirror.

I still think the Watchtower should be brought down, but I don't take so much time to bother with it any more. Don't mistake that for Apathy, however. I'm just busy living the good life.
