  2. friends

  ive notice that ive seem to developed quite an obsessive personality.

  with food, tv, a certain type of herbel substance, and my ex-girlfreind.

  not that i want to blame the jw's for the whole thing, i know there was a lot of factors(ie my family).

  Does JWD fill a VOID in your life?

  by ballistic in

  does jwd fill a void in your life or does the internet in general do so?.

  or do you think life is made up of lots of little voids we fill with tv, internet and so on.. what would you be doing if it wasn't for tv or the internet?.

  is the issue how much time you spend on one thing?

  Ahhhhhhhhh That felt good - great

  2. experiences

  i am a firm believer that information is power.

  throughout my entire childhood and early adulthood either my parents, foster parent, and the wts did a great job of controlling the information i had.

  by controlling the information, they controlled me.

  for someone who was raised in the "truth" for 17 years it was a very hard and a very scary decision when my father finnally had the "you must choose a side of the fence" speech and when i chose not to do it anymore he flipped his lid and i so "tormented" by my decsion i latched on to "maryjane" to fill the "need".

  after living with my parents for two years and then on my own for two more years crying everynoght cause i was alone not knowing way i felt this way this way, i felt a spirtual need at 3:30am i drove to my dads house and beged him to let me came home because the "voices" were drivin me crazy and i needed "guidance" he said well get you a meeting with elders and a "bible study".

  so i move back in, had a talk with the elders where they used the bible to call me stupid and i went to there meeting where they used what i said in private and made a whole new talk based around it i broke down crying and prayed to god for the guidacne to make me strong and make the tears stop and the holy spirt led me to this site i moved in with my brother and told my parents i can know longer belive the "truth".

  Dungeons and Dragons game & JW urban legends

  by rebel8 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  does anyone remember this game from (i think) the early '80s?

  it's a role playing game of some sort that included some violent imagery or something.. i remember jws (and the media, come to think of it) making a big, big deal of it.

  something like it was demonized or made kids murder people.

  JWS leading a double life

  by greendawn in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  do you know (or have you ever known) of apparently loyal or even fanatical jws that lead a double life?

  they may appear godly and obedient but in secret they bend the rules eg by fornication, cheating etc
