when i first starting learning the real truth about the wts i could not figure out why.
why did they make rules where some people died and others could makes bribes?
why did rutherford try to become bedfellows with hitler of all people?

list all debt other than your home.
then, if you are buying a home list that beside it.
think about what it would take to make a real difference in your life.
debt 40,000
house owe 169,000 on 400,000
assets 1,000,000.00

thanks emmy...........i had a hard time ,many of the best people i have ever known are jws, therefore this is the truth, i always thought that is because they were jw, i now know that they are just great people, because they want to be.
i have also learned in my 40 years that what happens in our life does not define us, only we can do that.

not sure where i should put this.
anyways i just wanted to say hello.. .

HELLO BRANDY, I AM BIG D, I AM A NEWBIE TOO, CAN WE PLAY?
as some of you are aware i am in the early stages of doubting the wts as the only channel of truth.however i am assailed by feelings of guilt.am i being seduced by the words of disgruntled witnesses or ex-witnesses or am i truly doubting !
!maybe some of you felt this way in the early stages of your "defection" from the wts.sometimes i feel as though i am rejecting god and his organization but other times i feel so strongly that the wts has misled me and is acting to control my "loyalty" by vieled threats of destruction at armageddon.you see prior to becoming a jw i had no religious affiliations.i knew nothing about the bible or god.so for 20 yrs i have only known watchtower teachings and un-learning 20yrs of this is making me so indesicive.am i doing the right thing or not ?
my only solace is prayer.i have prayed to god to show me in some way what the truth really is.i must admit that these prayers have been the most heartfelt i have ever said.have others felt this way and if so how did they deal with it ?i would truly appreciate some feedback.
i am like you , doubting many things, i was an ms, father an elder, been in my whole life, all family too, i have children, i know many things arent right, out in service we are told to ask people to examine their faith, and then told not to question ours?
we are always told to make sure of all things, i gave a public talk on that, and i wasnt! i know that that is a form of control, should not we search out the more serious matters of the truth, if it is?
and why are we always told not to search out these things?
we are always taught to feel guilty about questioning anything, and to listen to the slave, that is hyproticial.

in one hall i was in, we had sister self-righteous.
you know the type, always pointed out how spiritual she is and how much she does for jehovah.
anyway, one time she invited me and my two kids over to swim in her pool on a hot day and i told her i could come but that i had my nephew up from ct for a visit and asked if i could bring him.
whats even funnier, is that guys dad, left his wife for the new wife of his sons affair x, keeping it in the family, i guess

one of my friends, was goin out in service alot, and others thought odd?
he was always in trouble and not the service type, we were 18, and he always went out with a married sister , during the week, they were caught at the hall, in the library, naked having sex, instead of service, well gettin serviced i guess
