I'm not hurting.
Are you sure you're being completely honest with yourself here?
If this happened to me i would be emotionally wounded.

Yesterday my father informed me that he will shun me...
by nvrgnbk inbut only if a judicial committee tells him to.. if they say i'm inactive and let me be, he can still talk to me.. it's meaningless, because i would never meet with a jc, but he let me know where he stands.. he's dead to me.. i'm not hurting.. lost tons of respect for the man.. i told him he was brainwashed and left him without saying goodbye.. to no longer live for his approval was liberating, but this is even better.. i told him that i couldn't do that to my son.. his response?.
unconditional love is a lie.. you only get unconditional love from a dog.. sick, brainwashed, emotionally bankrupt man.. p.s.- not looking for cyber hugs.
just sharing the experience for others going through similar things and for lurkers to see what this cult does to people.. regards,.

JW's not the only one preaching the end is near. Born agains are doing it.
by jaguarbass ini get this news letter daily from a biker friend who used to sing with my band.
he is a born again type and has a ministry to outlaw bikers called the prodigal sons.the wactower is not the only group that preaches the end is near.
i think its a biblical message that people that read the bible tune in too.i think the problem with the wactower and the end of the world is they or i took it seriously, and they tell you not to get an education and make provisions for living in this system, which is also somewhat biblical.

FemaleThinking?
by R.Crusoe ini have often heard women speak about men who think with their meat and two veg!.
it is as if they lay claim to a theory that all male agendas form as thoughts which mainly travel down the cerabal cortex and out through the zipper before coming to life in the real world.. but how do men think women think?.

"Bad association, spoils useful habits" - Gag!
by WingCommander inanyone who was raised a jw like myself, immediately cringes at the site or sound of this quotation (from 1 cor i believe?).
as a child and especially a teenager, this quote even above others was most rammed down my throat like bad medicine.
it was the end-all, be-all quote to stop any discussion that might lead to any kind of fun or "normal" childhood activity outside of jw's.
