i had a few dreams that really scared the crap out of me. it was always a demon trying to suck out my soul. the brothers asked if i had anything that might invite demons. i reluctantly said i had the davinci code and angels and demons by Dan Brown and there was a statue of a little angel that was my landlord's in the room i was renting.
they looked at me like i was crazy.
i told them i'd give them away to someone.
they said no you would invite demons in their house.
i told them i'd throw them out.
they said no someone may stumble upon them and take them home.
they said the best thing to do was burn them....
WTF???? where? was i supposed to do a sacrificial chant and dance as well?
i threw them away and by god i didn't have the dream for a long time. then they came back. now having a clearer mind to analyze that recurring dream i understand that it only meant i felt someone was trying to take over my life and i was losing control.......demons or the WTS??
when i started freeing my mind from the JW the dream would come still and i wouldn't be scared of the demon anymore. he was just a part of my life but didn't frighten me anymore even when he approached me to suck my soul.
not spooky because i repeat : it had nothing to do with demons.

Did You Ever Think The Demons Were Bothering You?
by minimus inwhen i was younger i used to have terrible convulsions and hear "voices".
my mom was convinced that it must be "the demons".
the congregation prayed over me and eventually i went to a doctor that was able to figure out why i was so sickly and presto: everyone's prayers were answered..

people were surprised i was a JW.they thought i was too normal....
for all you guys that got that a lot did the people in the cong ever tell you "when worldly people think you're like them then you have to consider if you act like a christian in your everyday life"
they always told me it was something wrong that i was doing i.e. accepting people for who they were and listening without judging???
i lived my life thinking if i want people to be tolerant towards me as a jw then i must show the same tolerance.
one thing i still can't get rid of of the JWs:
i can't wear a skirt above the knee!! i still can't do it! how odd! the only time i wore a skirt was when a boyfriend bought me one and i only wore it with him and kept tugging at it....it was only a few centimeters above the knee. nothing major.
can i just say MINIMUS i think you put out some of the best posts on this forum.
cheers. -

Did You Purposely Avoid Certain People In Your Hall???
by minimus ini knew of some elders that were very intimidated by a certain elder's wife.
she regularly wrote letters to the society and circuit overseer telling them about the foibles of certain elders.
she was the type that when she raised her hand for a comment that you better call on her or you'd be approached by her right after the meeting.
