JW kids with Bebo & other such accounts. Its scandelous!
by jambon1 infor those who dont know, bebo is a kind of free web site thing that you can use to put lots of info about yourself, friends & pictures etc.
i think its a bit like myspace or whatever its called.. anyway, i got asked to look at an individuals page and of course it had links etc to this persons friends.
all were jw`s.. if i were still a witness, the stuff that is put on these websites would have concerned me.

my jw teens have accounts and i encourage it. any normalcy they can find in their lives that will help them fit in is ok with me.
what other choice do some have other than to live that double life?
Dont misunderstand me. I have no problem with the sites, as long as you are confident that they are OK. But from a JW viewpoint, the things that are posted there are quite shocking.

If I were still a witness, the stuff that is put on these websites would have concerned me. The young JW`s seem to be very, very immoral. They had pics of drunkeness & stories & other comments which were extreemly 'inappropriate'.
The funny thing is that most of these people were children of elders or those that came from other 'spriritual' families.
What a joke! Can just imagine them answering up at the meetings with their little dresses and suits on, looking all nice and spiritual.
Seperate, cleansed & set apart from the world? Pfffft! They are just the same as everyone else!

But i believe this is because i am going to meetings and trying to come back. If i totally said i was never going back,,,might be different story
Welcome.
If the above is not a strong reason to doubt the WTS then I dont know what is!
You see, no-one in their right mind would shun a child simply for disagreeing with a religion, yet the WTS makes it a 'kind, loving thing to do, for their benefit'. I mean, how sick is that?
My main reason for leaving the org was down to this practise and I never have been d/fd. I just felt so strongly about it. It is cruel, heartless and unnecessary.
Your family wont admit it but even if you did come clean, they wouldnt WANT to shun you. They would probobly do it because it is expected of them. Again, it is sick!
Be true to yourself and if they shun you then use it as an opportunity to 'teach them, dicipline them' that shunning is unnatural and cruel. They will come round eventually.

If You've Faded, Do You Still Consider Yourself a Dub?
by brunnhilde ini've been thinking about this a lot, because i've chosen to fade and i would never refer to myself as a jdub, but i've read postings from others who do.
i would have written a letter a year ago but i've got older parents who are upset enough about me just not attending.
on another thread someone is also leaving and they were advised to tell the jc to do whatever, to not acknowledge that they have any authority.

Same here.
I would write a letter but I have good reasons not to. I consider myself as an ex-witness with no interest at all now. The cong probobly still think I will come back one day.
No chance.

Brothers speaking about love (identifying mark) from the platform and me nodding in agreement only to walk breezily past a disfellowshipped sister and her 3 kids without even raising a smile.
