  i just found out my father died today...he had a heart attack in the middle of the night.

  he was 63, one month shy of his 64th birthday.

  after years of hard drug use, my boyfriend (now husband) and i finally quit when i got pregnant.

  i went strictly to "marijuana maintenance.

  " while staying home with my new baby, a witness started calling on me and eventually offered me a bible study.

  Hi Dinky,

  Sorry to hear your story, hope you continue on the road to recovery. How typical of the Society...you can drink and drug yourself into oblivion if you keep it private, but god help you if someone sees you smoking an ordinary cigarette in public! Damn hypocrisy, so sickening.

  we have a thread that asks why we became jw's, so i became curious as to why some of us have left.

  what was the last straw for you?.

  mine was the treatment of my wife.

  A lot of events and thoughts that I had pushed to the back of my mind until one day I knew I couldn't do it anymore. Being embarrassed by the Society always blowing their own horn, seeing that it was just a numbers game-no one really interested is us, just our field service reports.

  Last Public Talk - 1994 when a young snot of a brother gave a talk and used as an example a worldly person we had both worked for. Here was a woman, up in years, good education, beautiful home, and an active lifestyle that I couldn't have kept up with, even tho I was 25 years younger than her. He painted her as a lonely, pathetic old woman, wasting time on a hobby that was of no benefit.(There are specific details about her life that he used so I know it was her.) My face was burning, my heart pounded hard as I heard his talk. I felt ashamed,sick, sorry and embarrased for all of us.

  Last Memorial-Three years ago when a brother walked up to my husband and snidely said. "OH, you decided to make it." The tone in his voice was unmistakable.(The same brother who committed fornication with my girlfriend.)

  Last Shepherding call - 1994 or 95. Total bull in a china shop routine. Makes me sick to even think of it.

  Getting on the internet in 98 and reading freeminds and others. Coming here and learning about the change in 1995, sheep and goats, and generation of 1914.

  Sorry to go on for long, but this has been really bugging me.

  Amazing,

  Thank you so much for printing these stories. I have been e-mailing each installment to a non-witness friend, and she is entralled.
  At the risk of sounding like an "Amazing groupie," this stuff is just awesome. Thank you.

  part 2: torn between two worlds .

  in late november 1989 we decided to visit our new town, and see our new house.

  we scoped out the small town for its amenities, and this included a visit to the kingdom hall where we would eventually attend.. hindsight, being 20-20, i regret now that i did not try to get my family out of the organization before the move.
