  The Pain of Coming to a Decision

  2. friends

  it's been at least a couple years since i've posted anything on here, and much longer than that since when i was active.

  ten years ago i first came here all in turmoil over my disillusionment of my beliefs.

  i've been through lots of ups and downs since then.

  hey all, it's been a long time since i've posted anything here.

  this may be of interest to some people, or not.

  and i'm not sure if this has been announced in the congregations, even, because thankfully i have not attended any meetings in quite some time.

  Belief is Irrelevant to Watchtower Leadership

  by daniel-p in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the more i see what watchtower leadership does, the more i think doctrine matters less and less.

  it used to be you had all these people in leadership positions constantly pondering the big questions.

  watchtower articles routinely delved into complicated explanations of doctrine.

  Help: What percentage of your income do you pay on rent/mortgage?

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so i'm trying to find a place to rent on the other side of the country, sight unseen.

  i have a friend and real estate agent helping me, but it's pretty much a nightmare.

  they've done several walkthroughs and sent pictures of some places, but things are looking grim.
