  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  personally, i'm feeling better about things.

  i don't cringe when i see a witness now.

  i may still try to avoid contact with certain ones but now i feel more than ever before that jws are crackpots and whether they look down on me or not, they are the ones with the issues----not me!

  ARE YOU UPSET THAT YOU DIDN"T GO TO COLLEGE?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have read of some people's bitterness because they were denied the opportunity to go to college.

  during the 60's and 70's the society really discouraged any education other than what was necessary.

  since the end was so near, especially around 1975, anybody that decided to go to "higher education" was considered very weak and unbalanced.
