Yes! Well, as far as the blood transfusion thing goes. It's the one thing that I've fought with getting out of my mind since I left. When I think about someone elses blood running through my viens, if ever I needed a transfusion just totally grosses me out. Like I'd feel icky or something. My husband says its just what Ive been fed and made to believe all my life that makes me feel that way. So, I've tried really hard to agree with blood transfusions and such but I still feel that wierdness. It bugs me

When I was DF'd... briefly
by Cygnus inwhen generously given the opportunity to go before three men who, for the community of persons i grew up with and shared with, even owed my life to, would judge me as a wicked hater of righteousness, i got a word in, and maybe some day that word will be remembered, or could be of use to someone.. many of you know my story.
i'm not going into the whole thing here.
i will say, i quit the jws in 6/97 and the elders finally df'd me in 4/00.

Jen H- They just don't know any better. They are uneducated and see nothing beyond the organization. They rely so heavily upon it that they are willing to do anything to keep it, even to ignore you. Which is sad. But know that deep down they probably don't want to do it but they are threatened with excommunication if they don't follow. Just leave them alone, they'll hopefully come around.

Hey! I think we were shunned the other day...
by jgnat inhubby had a loud confrontation with the elders last week.
by pure coincidence we ran in to a few jw's this weekend while walking the dog.
the first family welcomed us with warm christian hospitality.

I personally can't wait for the challenge of being "shunned." Ill just be all, "Ohhhh my gosh how have you been? I haven't seen you in the loongest time! What have you been up to? Still waisting your time at the meetings? Gosh..Im doing great me and my worldy husband do worldy things all day long and partake in pagan rituals and such. It was great to see you and I hope you have a really sh**ty day!!" And trot off with a big smile on my face. Maybe next time you see her when you're walking your dog, you should pick the dog up in protection from such a hienous hose-beast, and cover his eyes.

When I left the org. I felt like a cloud had been lifted from my head. I could see clearly and it was like a lightning bolt had revived my mind back into working! It makes me really sad to be around my mom and see how uneducated and unhappy she is. But I feel that if I try to reason with her about things on improving her life she dismisses it and would rather wallow in her own misery. I just hate seeing her like that. I remember when I was fighting my way out she told me that my brain was being brainwashed by someone else and thats why I wanted out. I said, "IM being brainwashed?!!!" and laughed. I just wonder if that stuck with her and she hasn't the education to actively question the thing that she's been fed all these years. The frustration with the pure ignorance of the whole this is almost too much. I've thought about writing a book about it all to relieve my mind of all these horrible realizations.

CHEATING ON FIELD SERVICE
by chuckyy intowards the end of my time as a jw, i must confess to cheating whilst out on field service.. 1. i would turn up at the field service arrangement with my wife, and we would say that we were working together that day to do return visits.
as everyone went out, we would simply get into our car and drive home.
(hypocritical i know).

I don't know if this is considered cheating but my buddy and I would change our names at the door. We would say, "Hello, my name is Penelope and this is my friend Conchita." I would also just flat out add hours onto my slip. Ohh I think I did around 8 hours...4 mags looks good..10 tracts...I hated going out in service.

My mom knows I pry won't be going back to the meetings but I get this feeling like she wants to ask me about it. My grandma who seems to be getting more cukoo by the minute, is a little more bold. She hummed Kingdom Melodies the WHOLE time I was around her and at one point said, "It's funny how those songs stay in your head isn't it?" I wanted to say, "I've burned those out of my memory completely!!" She kept talking about people at the cong. and whatnot. It just got really annoying!! I wonder when the day will come when they ask me if Ill come back or even if I want to go to the memorial. What will I say without hurting their feelings? I was also downtown with some friends and happened to park right in front of a little old couple witnessing on the street. I told my buddies to make no eye contact and to run into the store. As we did that I could here them say, "hellooo.." I kinda felt bad! Maybe it was because they were so old.
