  YOUR DAILY JOURNAL

  dear friends,.

  much of what we do on a daily basis is routine and of no particular, earth-shaking importance.

  however, after reviewing letters of family going back to wwii, it is fascinating to read what dad was doing on board the aircraft carrier in the pacific on any old day, what mom was cooking on her ever-steaming range, how i was dealing with the roller coaster of emotion at bethel [mom saved all my letters], how nana wrote that she would not study with the witnesses [per my request] but 'here are some mittens i knitted for you when you canvass new york with your magazines.

  PIs hired by the insurance company ARE following her.
  
  I thought my uncle was imagining things, until I was with him when we spotted the inept PI. (His cover was blown by a friend. Half-assed disguise did him in.)

  this may not be my last post on jwd but i feel the time has come for some kind of "goodbye thread" nonetheless.. i first ventured on (french-speaking) xjw forums in 2003, when my own jw past was already old history and practically meaningless to any of my acquaintances in so-called "real life".

  looking back, beyond mere curiosity i certainly felt the need to revisit this almost-forgotten chapter of my life story.

  what especially drew me to jwd and made me stick to it for the past five years was undoubtedly the extraordinary diversity of this board, and the wealth of experience, information and reflection it offered.

  Are you are "born-in-the troof" JW?

  if so, you never had a chance to properly develop psychologically.

  you do not have the mental foundation to make a dedication.. .

  You dedicate when you are "old enough to make a conscious decision."
  
  They stack the deck, though, by the indoctrination process. They inculcate the teachings at an early age. Wouldn't be a problem, if it were all TRUTH.

  what angers you about the truth

  by stillajwexelder in

  this angers me .

  elders who will not make shepherding calls to comfort their brothers and sisters but as soon as that brother or sister puts one little foot out of line those same f-----g (sorry about the language but it really angers me ) elders can not move fast enough to form a judicial committee and then are so unmerciful - it makes me want to vomit literally

  That the Bethelite(s) assigned to read this thread can do so and still think it is the truth.

  If you ask him those things in any way, he will be suspicious of you.
  
  That, then, should remind you to be suspicious of the organization he is a part of.

  The official answer is they are like a chairman of the board, with no extra weight to their vote, but we see in reality what really happens the majority of the time.
