Punished by our “friends” for the letter we sent.
by LennyinBluemont insome of you may have read our exit letter from august of last year which we sent to about 50 of our close jw "friends", many of whom we had been very close to for decades.
we just told them what we had learned regarding the un scandal and provided all the documentation.
we never disassociated ourselves, nor have we been disfellowshipped.

OK, Your Opinion: Are Witnesses Who Practice Their Religion "Bad"?
by minimus inif a jw is an ardent believer, and faithfully practices his or her religion, are they, in your mind, "bad" or "evil", in reality?

I have a few JW friends who pratice it faithfully, and they are good people however, I think good people are good regardless of religion. I tried to practice it faithfully but it only lead to disappointment.

I'm glad I got my degrees while in the WTS. I used to get a hard time from from Elders, one told me that reading the WT for two year was equal to a BA I know that was a bunch of BS. I was asked to give a part at the MS school on how my degree did ot compare to the WTS education I said "no" .

What strange lifestyle choices have you seen copied in your congs????
by mtsgrad ini guess that most congs have some strange habitual behaviour.
i have kept a mental list of the strange copycat behaviuor i have seen.. brothers buying the same style suit from the same suppliers......... sisters getting the same hairstyle.......... brothers and sisters getting the same ministry bags, folders etc..... brothers marrying sisters from certain countries or districts...................... brothers learning the same trade............. brothers getting the same jobs............... sisters all getting kids at the same time................ brothers and sisters getting the same health stuff.......... teaching kids at home............. .

EX-NJ-JW, he indicated that he's just hanging on for his wife and uses the excuse that he's "ill" so not able to go to meetings or service. However, he looked fine to me and we enjoyed some drinks together.

Anything interseting thing he mentioned, he was a 1975er. He remenbers feel that it was his fault he thought the end would come and not the WTS now, he feel's like he was mis-lead.

Getting thoughs calls are the worst, I got two calls last night from elders asking while I did not go to meetings and that my ex-wife mentioned I'm growing a beard. I felt like crap after I spoke with them so I kknow I have to cut them off. You should try to do the same. Hang in there!!!!!!

He does not beleieve in having committee meetings and feels like they are a popularity contest and we should not judge. 2. The ministry, does not see the point in it since most JW's don't know the bible and they are fake. 3. He know this is a cult and he feels like he's wasted so much time. WOW, it was really interesting talking with him.

I just stop going to meeetings three months ago and have too lost my family. I have a hard time on my old meeting nights so I just keep myself busy doing stuff like reading. Hang in there, I'm looking forward to my new life. Try something new everyday, learn who you are. Take care of yourself.
