by Amazing inwhoops ... i didn't see randy's post before i sent this one off ... so if the mods want to tank my post, that is okay.. well, we always really knew that jws were among the lower wage earners ... you know, high school graduates at best ... taking all those janitorial jobs ... but now its official:.

I would love to hear from anyone who grew up in the truth and is gay
by Ragnarökkr inhi.. after lurking for a number of months i have decided to join in and hopefully connect with a few people who will know what it has been like to grow up as me.
i left the truth a number of years ago for two reasons, one of which was my sexuality, which i knew to be unacceptable to my brothers and sisters.
since then i have alone in my isolation, hopefully through this site i can rectify that.

The Inquisition. Have you been a victim?
by hambeak inreading crisis of conscience, the part of the inquisition of the chairmans committee is very disturbing to me.
has anyone here been before the jc and treated in such a secretive and destructive manner?
with my temperment i would probably tell them go to hell and walk out.

Jeff I agree with you I was reviewing that part of the book again today and that is what prompted this topic. I think also maybe because of the level of responsibility that Ray and Rene had the GB was fearful of losing their almighty power.

It never ceases to amaze me how these fellows think they can do this and cause so much hurt and harm. I think at one time maybe the org had some truths and now they have deviated from truth and are losing the rank and file and would like us to shut up. Truth is a constant and never changes. at least that is my opinion

If You Don't Believe In Jehovah's Organization You Can't Believe In Jehovah
by minimus inso said my brother to my mother the other day while she was in the hospital.
he asked her why i wasn't coming back to the "truth".
she suggested that i wanted to enjoy a worldly life of fun.

Funny, people believed in Jehovah long before there was any Watchtower society or governing body interpreting scripture. Sorry to hear about your mom and the people from her hall that didn't visit. Unless she is part of a unique clicke in the hall don't ever expect anything from them they are to busy trying to get converts. As for your brother consider the source and pity him, because one day he will wake up and maybe be quite angry about the phony front the org puts on as there is no real love shown amongst them
