  Is becoming a witness the right thing for me

  by marketman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've been struggling for quite some time now about continuing my exploration of the jehovah witness faith.

  i am a "cradle" catholic and have been very involved with the church.

  i started to become disillusioned several months back with all of the tradition, habits, and teachings of the church--which i began to seriously doubt.

  My recommendation is to go back to the Bible and read it again (new testament) it wont take all that long if you are serious about your future with or without them. See what it really says and then compare to the teachings the witnesses have - you should see some major discrepancies. When reading look for : Paradise, two groups of christians (annointed - not anointed), dates of the end, governing body/organisation etc. Hope your search goes well.

  Thank you once again for your comments. One thing that stands out for me is the thing about beards - the mosaic law was for keeping it - in other words the principle was to be different from other nations around them. But today its conform to a worldly 'business man' standard! Pathetic Pharisaical people!

  Are you happier out of the org?

  by dobbie in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  hi everyone i was just wondering if those of you that have left the org for whatever reason, have found your'e much happier than when you were in it?probably a daft question but i tried to talk to a friend about how i was feeling about a few things and why i don't go to meetings and she said would i really be any happier out than in?it just got me thinking about why i joined in the first place, because i was lonely and down, although i still am several years later it seems!have you found life better on the outside?did you feel a sense of freedom or was it really hard to adjust?when i try to explain what i find hard in the religion they can always say something back that then makes me think i was wrong in the first place and it is the truth after all - aagh!

  Its a bit like the film the Matrix, life outside isnt easier in lots of ways at first, you have a big learning curve trying to find who you are and what you want, find new friends etc. Some want to return to that illusion like in the film, because you don't have to think too much. For me i'm still having feelings of anger towards the lies, I feel lonely myself in my everyday life, and yet i've now met some great people on here, which helps loads. But I could never go back, now I know the reality. As someone said Its better to be awake than asleep in someone else's dream. Life outside isnt easy to adapt to but its very possible and talking here helps a lot. Welcome to you and your new life.

  I think it would be very healthy to write your letter - its something I wished I had done myself, only did mine verbally to an Elder. I would agree with other comments here, its up to you what you want to do, they have no power over you at all (its only the brain washing that tells you they do). Spell it out what you want to them, and be strong and don't give them an inch.

  The quickest, best way to have a Witness open their eyes to being a cult

  by free2beme in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my sister was probably one of the most loyal witnesses out there.

  all her responses were pulled right from the watchtower thinking, "sorry you feel that way, but i believe jehovah's witnesses are god's people.

  " well in time we came to an agreement, "you do not bring up your negative thoughts on the religion, and i will not try to get you to come back to the religion.

  I believe it is a very good thing when someone has a break from the meetings - you stop the constant propagander entering your mind. In time the urgency and guilt trips that are constantly laid on you wear off as you're no longer reinforcing it by attending. Its funny how once you move outside of the 'ideal' that you see things that were not apparant to you before, such as extra rules above and beyond the biblical, men on power trips, double standards, politics, lack of love etc
