  What one sentence could you say to a JW that would stick with them?

  by AlmostAtheist in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  you've probably heard sentences that stuck with you.

  quotes, one-liners.

  you hear them and they make so much sense or touch you so personally at the time that they become part of you.

  Men who drive around with a blow-up woman in the car.

  i saw something very disturbing this morning.

  i parked my car in the downtown dallas area and in the parking lot across the street i see a grey ford mustang.... with a fake redhead woman sitting in the passenger seat.

  it was painfully obvious that this guy was using "her" so he could drive in the hov lane.

  hubby 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.

  how long did it take?

  by mjs mouse, ben in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  newbie here, a lil about me......grew up around the jw religion, never was baptized but i did get to the level of "unbaptized publisher" once, as of now i dont attend any "meetings", but still get the watchtowers and awakes pushed to me by family members.

  it's actually been 3 years since i realized that it wasnt the "truth", even though i've probably have known it all along.

  my question to the groups is, how long did it take you to stop calling it "the truth"?
