I was called crumpet also, but my maiden name was crump, they just added the et to it. Our kingdom hall didnt have windows in them so I was always called a satanist....lol there were rumors that we had human sacrifices.

What nicknames were you given when you were a J/W by schoolmates/workmates?
by pobthespazz inespecially if you were raised as a dub like me, well i was called a muslim, holy joe, a jahoodsoon, all seems funny now but torture when you was the only dub in the whole school.

guilt feelings sometimes
by amara ini was raised as a jw from the age of 4, my father was an elder for 18 years, was a auxillary pioneer for years, been there done all that and decided to leave at age 30, i have chosen a pagan path and am very happy but sometimes i feel guilty for no reason, does anyone else ever have this problem?

thanks ex-nj-jw........ I have been reading alot of post here, I can relate so much to alot of people. I think this is an awesome place. But I say I am pagan, not because thats what the JW's call it but because thats what it is. I consider myself a solitary witch...thanks again for the welcome.

Thank you all for your kind words and your welcomes! I have been studing paganism the last year and a half, and I love what I have been learning, my parents no longer profess to be wittnesses, but they do believe what the wittnesses teach, my mom is very close minded..so I really have no one nagging at me to go back, just the ones that show up at my door now and again. I guess lately I have been having dreams of going to assemblies, and after a dream it tends to bring on feelings of guilt for being interested in paganism. I have not studied the background of the wittnesses, when I left I wanted nothing to do with them. I was so sick of they hypocrisy, and the back bitting, because I was an elders daughter for so many years, I was constantly scrutinized, it got to the point that no matter what I did it wasn't right. I have seen these people with extrodaniary faith, not usually of wittnesses but of other religions and I always wanted that but could never grasp it as a JW. I have taken what everyone has said to heart and I appreciate everyone of your opinions. I think I will delve into the background a little bit. I do not believe they have the truth at all, what is that scripture they are always quoting, you cannot get good fruit from a rotten tree. I think it pertains to them. Thank you all again and have a lovely day!
