  Definitely would have left SOONER ! Fear really kept me back for far too long .

  I would not have discussed my doubts with anyone else besides my husband and children . I would have told him earlier about my doubts and shared things with him sooner. Again fear of the unknown response held me back .

  I made the mistake of saying too much to soon to my sister in law ,neice and brother ....but it really wouldn't have mattered much the outcome would have eventually been the same with them .

  Otherwise I am satisfied with the way I left .

  grotzinger says they recently put a soil sample in sam, and the analysis shows something earthshaking.

  "this data is gonna be one for the history books.

  non believers what if your wrong ?

  by unstopableravens in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i do not wish to debate anything here like i have said in the past i have much respect for most on this forum (believers and non believers) i am simply wondering if the atheist or non god believers every worry about what if your wrong?

  it seems that many who were jw for so many years attach jehovah/yahweh with the watchtower and since the wt is wrong than god does not exist.

  i ask this question only because i care about people and salvation thats why i want to help as many as possable come out of this cult,and since i truly believe in god i dont know what is in the cinscience of those who dont.

  unstopableravens ......

  Are you assuming just because some one no longer believes in God that they are living a life of guilty pleasure and sin ?

  When I was a JW I lived a life of fear, and guilt always worried I might make Jehovah 'sad' because of some minor rule infraction . I no longer feel that way today ,and it is wonderful to not worry constantly .

  How I am as a person has not changed just because I do not believe in a higher power examining my every move . I am still a loving caring person interested in others well being . I am a faithful wife , a good Mother,a caring daughter ,hard worker, and a fun friend that enjoys a good laugh . I just no longer talk to invisible friends or feel like I am going to insult the universe if I laugh at a naughty joke .

  So what happens if God really does exisit ??? NO ONE KNOWS ....but I for one will have a lot of questions for that extratrestrial . Such as if you are so all powerful and benevolent why do you keep it all to yourself ? If you are a loving Father figure ,how come you only come by for a visit every couple thousand yrs or so ?

  This is how I feel about life ...I do not remember what it was like before I was born ,and I figure it will be the same after I die .So make the most of the inbetween time .

  Live a good ,happy life .Help your children to enjoy life to the fullest ,do not have regrets .Life is not perfect, and never will be ,do the best with what you got .
