JWs just not important in this world no matter what they/we want to believe

by restrangled in

jw
friends

for most of us raised in the "truth" and i hate to use that term, we were brought up/and or taught to believe we were very important in this world.

the message being preached, god's chosen people, yadda yadda.. so as we leave this religion, the things we can point to as being news worthy, those breaking the law in the ranks, coverups etc....its really small potatoes in the world at large, although to this group it is huge.. i believe that part of the letting go of the witness mentality is recognizing that in the end its all just a small cult that captured your soul, or you were born in and had no choice.

it sucks bigtime, its larger than life for most of us, but in the bigger picture of life its a very small blip.. there is no question this religion has ruined/destroyed many lives, but to the world at large it isn't big enough to make a differnece to those not involved.. in reality, to use a horrible analolgy.....the jw's are just a pimple on the butt of the world.. .

the JW's are just a pimple on the butt of the world.

I wish someone would come along and squeeze the ... out of this pimple! Your so right though. It's only big news to us.

Mum's need help with possible pregnancy questions

by LaniB in

well as you see from my avatar i already have one, she's about to turn two.

i found out about the pregnancy at just past 4 weeks.

always was clockwork regular, but i'd just had a feeling in myself that month that something was, you know, different but couldn't put my finger on it.

Mrs Smith

I too lost weight when i was pregnant with my son. It's not that strange. Go get a test and put your mind at ease. If it's negative go to the doctor, sound like your body's trying to tell you something.

Baptism of minors - scriptural evidence?

by rose petal in

hi, i have done a search on previous posts, and couldn't find anything since 2002. is there any scriptural evidence for baptising children early?

how do the dub's justify this?.

my son takes his 7yo & 4yo to the meetings, against my daughter in law's wishes.

Babies get shunned

my sister was recently disfellowshipped and she told me that she was eating in a restaurant yesterday when the elder that disfellowshipped her was seated at the table next to her.

of course they would not breathe a word to her.

but her son (4 years old) had kept saying hello over and over to the elder and his wife and they both refused to acknowledge him, smile of even say hello back.
