  Do you ever shed the Jw experience?

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have been out for 5 years.

  my wife and i left together.

  she saw the sham long before i did - though neither of us could 'put our finger on' what was wrong until we read coc, found the internet, etc.. i believe my wife leans toward atheism more than i do - i consider myself agnostic of the whole matter at this point.

  i don't get much chance to post on jwd, err, jwn anymore thanks to a major tightening of web policies where i work.. .

  this place was a lifesaver for me.

  i owe simon and the heavy-lifter posters of yore an enormous debt.. .

  this evil ...wicked.....rotton system of things.....NOT!!!!.........

  by oompa in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  of course anyone not a jw is "worldly""...i think that mentally this is the hardest part to overcome if you are born in..... you should have seen the look on my wife's face recently when i told her that i feel that things are prob about as good as it gets.....no evil wicked system of things exists........ ya..... i know times are tough here in usa as far as employment.....but damm....this ain't like the great depression or wwi or ww2!!

  !.......life in the middle ages used to be 38 years......now it is 88 years!!!.......

  i can walk just about any neighborhood without fear...if the "world" were as bad as they say...there would be a prisons every 1000 meters!!!
