  Did it bother you that they taught, "miss a meeting and you'll fall away?"

  how many times did we hear that if we dont attend meetings we will leave the truth because satan will get ahold of us?

  that always bothered me.

  i thought, "if my faith isn't able to stand alone what good is it?

  Yes. As if you missed one meeting and you didn't learn where the next meeting was going to be held "during the persecution," then too bad for you. You deserve eternal destruction.

  Okaaayyyy.

  I agree...just wow.

  On the other hand...good job WBTS for keeping up the craziness! And you are watching the History Channel and highlighted 2 - 3 events out of thousands that happened that year! Don't get me started about the striking mine workers that fought for better working conditions which eventually were implemented...events that all working people benefit from today.

  Wow.

  Oh dear (((awaken)))...I know you had such hopes for your nieces. How frustrating...you've been such a great daughter/sister/aunt to everybody.

  There is no reasoning with the cult mind. The cult mind when presented with issues about their beliefs or conduct will go into defense mode and defend the lies. Their natural mind's reaction would be to discuss an issue or fact as presented.

  I'm so sorry you had to experience this. It is maddening...I know. This is the crappy cost of leaving. **sigh** I'm here for you. xx

  is it possible to raise good kids with out religious morals?

  by Princess Ashe in

  2. experiences

  making up my mind on how to teach my son values in life seems to be an on going struggle of what is right and wrong.

  being raised in a sheltered jw life until after leaving high school seems like going from one extreme to another of being over restrictive or under.

  trying to find that balance.

  ^^^ What Simon said.

  Everytime and in every situation in life, how much better for a human being to learn to act from reason, empathy, love than out of fear of a supernatural being. Every situation.

  I remember one paradise food table had a Corningware blue cornflower dish on it. Huh? we thought. Then somebody said they use references that are common to us to make it more real.

  sometimes people make special connections to animals.

  sometimes they bond very deeply and are real friends.

  yesterday was the end of such a friendship that lasted ten wonderful years.
