Please don't tell me it's *THAT* bad...
I won't be having sex any time soon.... I'm not even sure how to go about getting a girl freind...
But I have enough control over myself not to jump in bed with the first girl I meet, restrictions or not.
Disapointing? I sure hope not!

JW restrictions on sex, lead to over hype that made sex disappointing.
by free2beme ini remember being a teenager and my hormones were on overdrive.
the young witnesses i knew, male and female, were all feeling the same thing.
we would bring up sex, in one form or another, all the time.

What were you praying about before you left the JWs?
by MegaDude ini was earnestly praying to serve jehovah and give him my all.. in short order i found i was heading toward the unthinkable.
i was on my way out of the watchtower and the only life i had ever known.
pretty ironic.

"i guess i just loved females too much."

Raising well rounded and balanced kids...what have you done right?
by My MILs worst nightmare, a nonJW inparenting is one of the most difficult yet rewarding things there is.
doesn't every parent want their children to have a good moral compass, to have good manners, to be socially adept, to be compassionate, to reach their potential and even overachieve in terms of school and career, to appreciate and understand history, science, the arts and the world as a whole, to play team sports when they are younger so they can benefit from physical activity and the comraderie of a team sport, and above all to be a critical thinkers who are strong and independent so that they will not become easy prey to abusive organizations and/or abusive people?.
as a parent i have many times felt like a real failure and at other times like i am actually helping them to reach their potential.. what do you feel that you have done right in raising well rounded and balanced kids?

Now here's me thinking ahead...
I'm hoping for a daughter (don't ask why, because I don't know.)
What I want to know is, How do I keep her away from boys!?
I just so happen to know EXACTLY what boys want, seeing as how I am one. I'm just lucky I'm 16, and have present day experience I guess.
So ironic. -

Mom nearly ate me alive!
by Anony-Mouse inwe had a major talk about jws today.
i couldn't use the un or pedophiles, as this is 'outside' information, and she would never belive me.
then she would question my source, and i'd be killed by elder firing squad.

"Anony-mouse you are really cute."
Why, thank you :P .
"1) does she know you are online?"
No. I kinda let slip that I had been looking at info online. I didn't realise that 'wikipedia' sounds like 'wiccanpedia' to the untrained ear. She probably thought I was looking at doom spells :P . So she changed the password on me. It was easy enough to change it back, get a keylogger, let her try to sign on, then change it back.
"If you think hispanic is a race your way off on evolution."
Oops :P . Maybe I was thinking more along the lines of a group of people. There are many spanish descended people in south america and north america.
"f the WTS is wrong about this date,607, then 1914 is wrong, 1919 is wrong, Christ didn't start ruling in heaven, no faithfull and discrete slave at this time, the whole premise crumbles."
She will claim the WT is correct, and everyone else is wrong. It always is....
"The line of Egyptian kings we no of date back more than 4000 years
The number of animals that could fit on the ark was very limited, once accounting for a years supply of food and water as well.
How did marsupials get to Australia. Did Koalas paddle across in canoes. Somehow they got to Aus in 4000 years without living traces and children in other countries.
There are volcanic ash mountains in France that are millions of years old. A global flood would have washed the ash away.
No wooden boat the size of an ark has or could be made as its size twists too much and would leak."
I like these. I told her that once history started getting recorded, life spans dropped to normal. As if they were never so long. But that australian thign is great, I never thought of it. I knew about the boat thing, I belive it's called hogging. The ark would split in half without an actual boat shape, along with some special ribs inside the hull.
Never heard of them...I wonder why :P. But I did some math. My uncle said at a door today that every house in the world will get the KN37 message. But only 300 million of 6.5 billion actually will. And that's if everything worked out perfect, and it never does.
"Can God lie?
Look at the masthead on page 4 of any AWAKE from 1989 until 1994.
It reads, "the Creator's promise of a peaceful and secure new order before the generation that saw the events of 1914 C.E. passes away."
Now, look at the masthead on page 4 of any AWAKE from 1996 until present.
It reads, "the Creator's promise of a peaceful and secure new world that is about to replace the present wicked, lawless system of things.""
She will go nuts about the 'light getting brighter'. I can't get past it, because she never will. It's the one thing keeping thier religion alive. I used a variation of that once.
People kept saying that 'God was making sure they were faitful.' But it says that god will not test you. And if he said that, he can't be lying. -

We had a major talk about JWs today.
I couldn't use the UN or pedophiles, as this is 'outside' information, and she would never belive me. Then she would question my source, and I'd be killed by elder firing squad.
We talked about the ark, and how it's not possible. She just ignored me, wanting 'hard evidence'. I should google it or something.
We talked a lot about variations in genetics. She said there are 3 races, white, black, and asian. I think hispanic and middle eastern are also races, but that wasn't an issue. Her theory is that jehovah 'gave' use different races and eye colors (at an unknown point in time after adam and eve) because he liked diversity.
Then we went indepth to, of all things, slantyness of eyes. My whole point was that to get enough different types of horses (i chose them at random), you would need many breeds to get the diversity of today. That would take up SPACE that would be premium on an ark. And since JWs now belive in microevolution (they put it in quotes...It's the same thing as selective breeding, but they wont admit it), but not evolution, I told her that zebras could not appear without other zebras, or AT LEAST two breeds somehow magically capable of spawning zebras after several generations.
Anyways, back to slanty eyes. My arguement was that japanese people have different eyes from chinese. Since "asians are all one race", and there can be no mutation, how did japanese get different eyes?
She squirmed her way around, and I gave up on it, because she wouldn't back down, despite not understanding the subject.
I had her on evolution though. I got a book for homeschool that has an entire chapter on the subject. And neatly summed up right there is several pages of how scientists have come to evolution as a conclusion. Naturally, she DID NOT HEAR A WORD, and irritated me. I was smart-ass about it though, so I don't entirely blame her :P .
Now she eats me alive.
She tells me that they are right, because only they do what the bible says. They are the only ones going door to door across the planets.
I stumbled around and made an ass of myself.
So I pull out my 'secret weapon'. The one thing that can destroy a JW in one shot. If 1914 was the year they were to have the 'proper food at the proper time', why were they teaching lies like the cross, blood, etc.
First off, I stumbled around that too, because I couldn't find a way to effeciently convey my words (english is not my first language, baby-talk is).
She tells me that "they were right about the big things, wrong about the little thigns. Only the big things matter".
I realised it had holes in it, and part of the reason I used it is to refine it. Now i'm going to abandon it as my 'secret weapon'.
I was scared for a little while. She actually had me beliving her! I of course clung to my science book to retain sanity :P .
Now I want something I can really argue with. Something that I could think up, so no stories or whatnot. Since I can't get on apostate websites (or the internet at all :P), I can't use anything that I couldn't think up myself.
I've got her beat in science. I happen to be good at it. I've read through the evolution magazine a thousand times, and have it analized in every way. I have deemed it foolish. My only safe haven for my own anti-jw beliefs is evolution.
And it has me feeling I might be wrong. Even though I can feel deep down I'm not.
But I DID take some good advice. Afterwards, I hugged her and told her I loved her. I want her to know that despite driving me insane, depriving me of my human rights, and dragging me through those meetings, I still love mommy.
These things I write are painfully wrong. I hope you get some sort of sick masochistic pleasure out of torturing your eyeballs reading through them :P . -

Let's go with the "sense of humor" thing instead of conceited :P .
I never said I DIDN'T have teenage superiority complex, just not on this issue.
I realise that I don't actually know everything. Not even close. But what little I do know makes me proud of myself. And so long as I don't LIFT OFF from my overinflated head, I'll be fine.
Thanks for the love! -

This is the same person, different name. God killed my normal account, apparently.
"I take it at the tender age of 16 you have left the religion already?
BTW I love your online name - its so cute! (sorry if it wasnt meant to be cute)"
I've left the religion mentally. I'm forced to go anyway physically. And I don't mind if you think the name is cute or not :P . I'm secure in my masculinity ^^ .
"I know you personally "held back" but NOBODY should be laying a hand on that woman and if someone else does and YOU dont do anything about it...then you are culpable."
I hate myself for thinking that way, but it was a tough time for me mentally and and with hormones. None in our family lived close enough to us, and she was without protection.
And, if that comment is targetted at me...I was 6 at the time. I was scared and hiding, and didn't understand what was happening. And my brother could have killed me because I was so much smaller. There is a gap in our ages, he's in his late twenties, and I'm 16. -

did you listen to the kingdom songs on CD?
by dobbie injust wondering if anyone else had the collection of kingdom melodies on tape or cd and if you ever listened to them?i ordered the whole set of 9 cds 2 yrs ago and donated over 100.00 for them!
!was just thinking i could have bought a nice winter coat with that!i used to play them at home all the time, even in the car or when we had the group meeting at our house.i used to love one particular song cos it had a full orchestra and would play it over and over again.some of them were pretty cheesy though - one song was sung in opera style but not the words she she 'ahd' it all the way through - horrible!was anyone else as sad as me and did you actually pay for them?i regret it now cos they're all in the attic and can't bear to use them ever again..

I used to listen to the...pink book is all I remember it by...before I went to bed every night.
Now that I think about it...I wonder....why?
