JW's use Rose colored glasses to see each other.
by The Lone Ranger inhave you ever noticed how jws look at each other through rose coloured glasses.
no jw can do any wrong in the eyes of other jws.
even when its obvious that a jw has done wrong, they are always righteous to other jw"s, as long as a jw gos to meeting and does field service then he must be right with god and therefore must be right in the eyes of others jws.

They try to appear as if they have Rose colored glasses, and some truly believe what they want to see. But they are extremely judgemental and critical of each other. It all depends if they keep it to themselves or decide or they want to make themselves look good by bringing it to the attention of others. Very selfish motives.

My son has been going trick or treating for the past few years since we quit. But this will be the first year I will be giving out candy from my door. I can't wait! One year, my son, got a Bill Clinton mask and dressed in his suit. Instead of saying "Trick or Treat", he said, "I didn't cheat on my wife". People would laugh and he would get extra candy!

Suggestions needed?
by jc1985 in.
well ive been raised in the truth for 20 years, and serve as an ms, but have overtime realized that its not actually the "truth".. any thoughts on how to best let it be known that im not interested in being a witness, and once thats accomplished how to assimilate myself into.
the "world", since ive been shut off from it for my whole life and programmed to believe every non witness is only interested in hurting others.. any thoughts would be helpful.

When I was a teenager, I made a new dress for the Memorial from some old fabric my Mom had. During the meeting, my dress started ripping because the fabric was so old. A sister had to lend me her sweater.

I HAVE MADE A DECISION TO LEAVE
by Maddie ini haven't been on jwd for the last few days as my good friend had her mum die suddenly and i have been spending time just being there for my friend.. i was shocked and saddened to hear that trevor and linda was a sham.
it's sometimes hard not to become cynical with life and not trust anyone when this sort of thing happens.. i have made a big decision and i hope that i don't live to regret it.
i have posted that i have been trying to "fade" as my son and his family are jw's and i don't want to lose them because of being shunned.

Be strong and confident. You have weighed your decision carefully and you know you are doing the best thing. Your relationship with God will get better when you have freedom to think for yourself without guilt or fear.

This is quite thought provoking, so here's my two cents. Some people in the congregations can get pretty scary with their comments. They are taught we all deserve to die. Brooklyn has proudly illustrated in publications that we are condemned to a gruesome death. Comments from the "platform" and the audience can be very hateful that all "apostates" should and will die a vicious and cruel death. We would wish that we had never been born, as they say. Of course, it extends to all non-JWs too. Sometimes the hatred they are taught makes you wonder. They love to use experiences of those who deserved the bad things that happened to them because they did not follow Brooklyn. And, they say those that serve Jehovah should rejoice that these unworthy ones were brought to justice.
Interesting that they won't celebrate Halloween.
