  one of the common responses i received was "i'm sorry you were stumbled.

  some of you have asked me where the name "tall penguin" comes from.

  well, i came across a book called "animal attraction" about 5 years ago.

  it is a personality test which pegs you as a particular animal.

  my journey to find a religion i could believe in wholeheartedly started as a young adult.

  i was raised as a catholic but couldn't say for certain that i believed all that i was taught..

  i had a mother who was a catholic and a father who was a divorced protestant.

  i'm new to these boards.

  i'll introduce myself.. i was raised a jw, baptized at 13, pioneer at 15, married at 18, divorced at 21, disfellowshipped and pregnant at 22, and here i am.

  i gave birth to a beautiful baby boy about five months ago, and i've never been happier, but that has required a lot of sacrifice and hurt.

  Trusting ourselves vs trusting the org

  by Lady Lee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in my discussion with estee yesterday the subject of how the wts edits their own literature came up.

  it wasn't until after i left that i began to realize the extent of these edits or that they even occurred.. an example i gave is how i could clearly remember having read something in a magazine.

  i could recall clearly where it even appeared on the page even if i could not recall what issue it was in.
