So every man that is not a JW is a wife beating, HIV ridden hypocrite?
LOL.
Such a wholesome view of life they have.
this is making the rounds.
he doesn't serve jehovah.
i'd like to tell you a story, about true love at last.

and does it seem like it is getting harder to keep in with each and every day?.

Gave up a while ago with my wife. She gets defensive & more or less
puts her fingers in her ears & shouts la-la-la-la-la like a child. Either that or she tells me I'm attacking her.
People have to work things out for themselves.
The only people I will be pro-active with now is my kids so as to save them from the guilt complex that
inevitably comes from growing up in the org.
it has come to my attention that there was a time when the wt magazine or some other wt.
publication actually printed an article(s) relating to black people being 'cursed' or unworthy of gods blessing.. .
if so, is there any reliable copies of this text?.

If true I find it astonishing.
the past three weeks having been so stressful and very sad.
my ex husband died after being in hospital for just over a week in intensive care.. i was just 18 and he was 21 when we first met and after a whirlwind romance we married 6 months later and have two sons together who are now adults.
although our marriage ended after 25 years and i remarried 7 years ago, he was my first love and i knew him for most of my life.
Maddie. That is a terrible shame that you have had to go through grief and rejection all at the same time.
I cannot even conceive of not having contact with my childrens children. It is one of the cruelest things about the
WTS. One of the foremost things that I hate the most about the religion. How people can treat their own flesh & blood
like this is simply beyond me. To hand the toys back? How utterly horrible. I wish you well & hope the situatuation
changes. Regards. J
Seems rather odd to me really.
one day as we were leaving the kh on a sunday, my jw group overseer (who was a right sanctimonious ba****d).
was standing at the f**king door.
he said 'bye now, pay later'.

I wish I had said "look you f**king specky ba***rd, I am taking an old sister home. I also have a very hungry 6 month
old baby who wants to have a bit milk from my wifes t!t. Now, are you f**king going to deny the old girl a lift home & my
wee girl some f**king good food so that we can go boosting your fu*king ego & trail around knocking on empty doors?
Well, are ya?"
Sheesh, some memories are just terrible. That actually happene.
?
new here, lurked for a while, glad to be able to join.. my introduction from jw recovery:.
"i am new to the board, so a short introduction is in order.
i am 26 years old and just out for about a month (update: four and a half months).
.
Welcome to the board.
Hopefully things will even out eventually with your JW relatives. It is very cruel how blood realatives shun people.
Testimony to the fact that the religion is a crock of shit really. I mean, seriously, who would do such a thing?
Anyway. Good luck & best wishes.

i recognized, when i first started searching the web, that there are tons of information regarding jehovah's witnesses.
most is negative toward the religion.. coming onto jwd/jwn gives one a different perspective.
you get to interact with those thinking about leaving, those who have already left and even some who never were in the cult but are fascinated by the experiences of those that were in the "truth".. when you are on this site, how does it affect you??
.
At one time, visiting the site & discussing matter which I had never openly spoke about was
literally life saving to me.
Sometimes I would get angry about all the horrible things that had happened to people.
I like to look in now to see how everyone is doing & to read newcomers experiences.
i was raised in a non religious household that was very stable & loving.. through circumstances, i bacame a jw.. .

I wasn't raised a JW. I was raised in a non religious household that was very stable & loving.
Through circumstances, I bacame a JW.
During the 10 years that I had the misfortune to practice the religion, my young energetic & happy
mind became negative, worried & depressed.
My negative outlook brought me to the stage of contemplating suicide. I was totally paranoid
& although I was depressed, I didn't have any reason to be other than my major dilema about
whether or not to stay a JW. I actually had an awful lot of things going for me at the time.
My non JW family began to notice how I always looked at life & the future with a negative outlook.
The religion ****ed me up. Something I will never forgive them for. Something I will make sure
doesn't happen to my kids.
How did it effect you?
