Name one thing the JW's would like to see changed in their religion?
by JH inlets say the jw's were allowed to write down on a piece of paper, without anyone knowing who wrote what, one thing that they would like changed in their religion, what do you think most jw's would want changed?

Evolution of Richie: Post JW
by RichieRich ini have many hopes for this post.
ideally, it will be an eloquent explanation of my actions, more for myself than anyone else.
also, i hope that there are tons of others out there who have, or have had similar feelings and experiences who can contribute insight to the discussion.. as a witness, my mind was relatively closed.

I understand where you are coming from on many points. However, I've always been open to accept people for who they are, gay, straight, whatever. But, since I left the WTS I don't trust people. I spent 20 years of my life trusting those JW's around me only to feel like a victium of fraud. I'm sure I'll learn to trust again but it will take time. I try to see good in all people and not judge them maybe that's why I would bump heads with the Elders.

"There's nothing else out there"

his reason is "there's nothing else out there" (meaning out in the world).
if i had a dollar for every time i've heard a jw say this.

S. Thanks you sooooo much. I'm just trying to figure out a number of things since I never thought I'd be in this situation. I did note realize that my eyes being opened to thw WTS would cost my family.

Thanks Grouper. In case you guys are woundering, Grouper is my Best Friend. I try to do things with my girls but my Ex-wife plans all these fun things to do and I work all week so, when i get off of work my kids are tired and have already ate. On weekends she plan trips out of town and other fun stuff so when I go to pick them up my kids are excited to go out of town and if I say no, they get upset. I tell them I love them 100 times a day and hug adn kiss them the time I spend with them. He parents are not nice people adn always talk bad about me.

Were your prayers ever answered while being a JW
by Grouper indid any of your prayers ever get answered while being a jw even if they where small maybe insignificant?
pesonnally i never really needed my prayers to be answered but one time while the co visited us i was going to work with him durining saturady service i get there at 0930 but service started at 0900. i felt i missed my chance to work with him and show i was commited and i wanted to asked him how i can reconcile the fact i did not believe that noah's flood existed globally with the way the society views it.
i left the kingdom hall pissed off thinking i fu*ked things up, so i kinda said to jah well i messed up gettin some clarity to to my quandry.

I remenber one Elder used to say that the "friends" were not praying enough that's why the "end" has not come. What a bunch of crap.

statistics
by dust inhello friends.
we've been to the district convention and heard some statistics: 6.5 million publishers, 1.3 billion hours in 2006, 28.5 million copies of the wt.
this supposedly proves that the witnesses are the real followers of christ.

Who cares about those number. I'd lie all the time about my time and mags. placed as did my ex-pioneer wife. I know tons of pioneers that lie about thier time. How about these numbers, 607 vs. 587 or how about 1975!!!!!!!!!!!
