  I feel the wind's effect on my body and my emotional state and the world around me. Too bad I have never felt the same from your god.

  Guilty conscience

  by lazuli in

  my ex-bf is a baptized jw, i've been studying for about ten months already and i'm about to start in the school.

  when we were together, we were very intimate, there was never any penetration, but there was pretty much everythings besides that.

  not that its anyone's business but this included oral sex and such.

  This is a really screwed up situation. I realize the need to purge the weight on your soul, but the elders™ have you trapped in a damned-if-you, damned-if-you-don't mindset.
  
  Think about it down the road, if you're an informant now, about what happened in the past, before you got really serious about this religion, you will be expected to continue to rat out your brothers™ and sisters™. How does that build trusting relationships? Is that the life you want for yourself?

  was your old congregation one of those that got together and publicly, noisily, happily destroyed your records?

  mine was.

  it was pretty dumb because most of us replaced our albums within about a year after missing music that we liked in the first place.

  Hi Serendipity,
  
  I also seem to remember some months later the publications™ praising such behaviors on the part of the brothers. When I saw it in print, I felt like such a nazi.
  
  If my music (or whatever) bothered me, I should have disposed of it quietly and made it a matter between me and god rather than turning it into a display of self-righteousness.

  I think it was a talk at the DC about 'music that debases' in the early 80's that got us all fired up.
  
  We had a picnic at an elder's house and brought in armfuls of records, although I think the smart kids brought old, scratched to hell records for destruction.
  
  WE partied dub-style while sledge hammering away.
  
  God, I was dumb...

  2. friends

  not too long ago, i would have told you that the proper way of spelling shiraz was to leave the "raz" off and replace it with a "t.".

  sorry all you aussies out there.

  alas i freely admit i was wrong as i sip a victorian 03 by greenpoint.

  The both start with an "s" and when indulged in from time to time you can get a warm, fuzzy feeling.

  Married to it JW

  by mydiscounts in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  my personal experience is being married to a man who grew up in a very bad situation at home with jw being very strict.

  this has damaged his mind to a point where he believes what ever they tell him, he is the kind of guy who will not got to a meeting for a year and his first day back his hand is up in a watchtower study.. he then wants to try that s^%$ on my children and then we are in a fight, i am afraid i am just married too it being that i lost my dad early in life not to death but he just left and i grew up with out him in my life i feel bad spliting up.

  my youngest son tells me all the time how much he hates his father, i hate to say deep inside if i were him i would also hate my husband.

  It's no wonder I am out.
  
  I would have been totally embarassed to have this dolt speak on my behalf, saying I would have been offended by hot cross buns.
  
  It's extremism taken to the stupid end of the pool.
