as someone recruited in my 20s and spent about 6 years "interested " though never baptised , i just felt depressed after the lovebombing i received at first , i felt trapped by knowing "the truth" and wished i hadnt heard about it . i couldnt understand what was good news about billions of innocents dying including poor children who have suffered enough in countries where there is famine etc... and all my relatives were doomed along with them ! i was a much happier person before i met jws believing you go to heaven after your death and live with god jesus and your loved ones . i ended up on anti depressants and it was years before i found out it was all bullshit !(thanks to this site ) did any of you think it wasnt really good news ?

who believes in reincarnation ? my 7 year old told me " mummy did you know that we have all been here before but we just forget "!
by looloo ini asked her who told her that as i knew the school would not have covered that subject , she replied " nobody told me , i just know it "!
i have heard that children have a better memory of that kind of thing but i was still amazed !.

jam , the book i have read on reincarnation describes heaven as home and a wonderful place but each person chooses to come back and chooses the kind of life we will have good or bad as a way of learning , it is only a short time period we are gone from home on earth as the time is not the same as on earth , the book is called life on the other side , its very interesting and a comfort .

low key , ive read about the dreams thing that you described and what happens to you is very common and apparently when you sleep you are most likely to remember past lives as your mind is more "open "

JW directives you thought were downright stupid
by fallen_princess ini remember one time when i was about 17 years old, i wanted to arrange a costume party for the young brothers in the congo around my age.
i suggested it to one of my friends and was told that the elders had advised against it because it could be construed as pagan and masks have their roots in demonism.
of course, i was never shown any biblical proof of this but just that response took the wind out of my sails and i decided to just not go through with it.

HELP! Good Friend just told she is being disfellowshipped!!
by jdhf inhey... a good friend of mine was visited by 2 elders this evening..and after being treated like something you wouldn't want on your shoe...told her that her parents can no longer have anything to do with her 9 year old boy.
he is not baptized.. her dad is an elder and mum a long standing publisher...can they really insist that the grandparents ignore the child??
they babysit for him when she's at work...she would have to leave her job, and she lives in their house too..although they live elsewhere...her dad is researching this as he is obviously curious as to whether this is scriptural.

my inlaws stopped bothering with our 7 year old over 2 years ago when we moved they are apparently "heartbroken" and tell people i dont allow contact which is a lie as i always made them welcome on the rare occasions they did visit but it was all one sided so i cant be bothered anymore and since i found out motherinlaw lies about me too right i dont want anything to do with them !
