The PO at my last KH was like this. He knew it was not the Truth but he did not have a choice but to stay a JW. He would alwyas tell me "what else is there?"

i had an experience a couple of days ago.

me and my bf broke up he is a jw and i am not.

we were togehter for a while and it was a good relationship and out of the blue he says to me i think its better if we just break up.

Jade and LousieAlly, I became a JW so I could marry my ex-wife. I understand your situation. I went through the emotional highs and lows before I became a JW. However because a JW was the worst decision I made. If someone wants to be a JW do it for yourself and not for anybody. Being a JW and realizing it's not the "truth" will be devistating and much more if you do it just to get married. Don't do it.

there are people who have claimed or who to claim to be jesus.. i am ignorant of any news about people claiming to be satan.. i'll do my own research but if anyone knows any incidences off the top of their head?

please share.... the threads on satan made me wonder about the phenomenon of people taking on this superior identity..

While she never claimed it, I'm pretty sure my ex-sister in law was Satan.

What is your opinion of these experiences?

by R.F. in

one thing that the jws are always proud of themselves over is the idea that they come across individuals that are low in spirits and were praying for help just as they were stopping by in the door to door magazine selling work, thus proving they have god's backing and are being led by angels.

this happened to me sometime recently.

i was out door to door and came across a man that was severly depressed.

It's the law of probability. If your knock on enough doors you'll find somebody. I remenber having a similar experience and thinking "this person must be a nut if they think I'm the answer to their prayers".

have any of you ever joined a singles club?.

i've recently moved and don't know anyone in the new area.

a friend suggested that this may be a way to better matriculate and start building a social network.. it's pretty pricey but my birthday is next week and i'm considering making this my present to myself this year.. any suggestions?
