I totally agree. Funny thing is that now that I don't go to meetings they like to call me and complain about how bad they are treated. I just listen and tell them "whatever".

Current Witnesses That Bitch, Moan & Complain
by minimus ini think there's a lot of them.
they realize that they are not being treated so good.
they might've been elders and ministerial servants or pioneers or bethelites in the past.

Elders really can keep personal matters confidential, right?
by oompa inless than one week after meeting with two elders who had been told of my visiting this site, a good friend called me.
he said his mother (age 73), in a different city from me, called him and told him she heard i was now an apostate.
now how the hell did that happen?

Give an Elder a couple of beers and he'll tell you everything. I used to know about people getting DF even before they had a Committeee meeting.

God is Not Great
by bluesapphire inhas anyone read this book?
while the author's writing style is pedantic and he seems to be too full of himself, he makes some very interesting points about religion.
i'm about half way through.

Has anyone found dating as an EX JW difficult?
by sweetstuff injust curious as to what difficulties have faced people dating as an ex jw.
myself, i have noticed the glazed over look in a guy's eyes when you try to explain why your family doesn't celebrate the holidays with you etc.
new to this board, so if this has been well covered before, please forgive me.

I really don't get into the JW stuff. If religion comes up I just mention that at one point in my life I was a JW but, since I was the only person in my family that was a JW I don't mind telling them that I do all the holiday stuff with my family. However, I do think it would be easy to date an ex-JW since they might understand my position on religion.

As a JW were you ever counseled about clothes you wore, or lack thereof ?
by flipper inthought this could get interesting discussing experiences.
i for one was trying to reach out for ministerial servant again in the early 90's , had been one before, and was assigned to carry the microphones one meeting.
had an elder call me in the back room and say , " brother flipper, i noticed looking down towards your shoes that you are wearing white socks today.

I was told that some of my ties were too "loud" and I should look at the WT's and see what kind of ties those brothers wore.
