New " Witness Only " Watchtower - Even More Controlling - Check this Out
by flipper init had been 5 years or more since i even read a watchtower article after exiting the witness cult in late 2003. but i was curious to see if the new " witness only " watchtowers were more controlling than i remember them being 5 years ago.
and it certainly opened my eyes to the extreme control.
when you have been away from it - you can really see the difference !

Things to wear at mtg that will raise eyebrows but won't get you into 2...
by cognac inmuch trouble... or, things to do at the mtg that will raise eyebrows but won't get you into to much trouble.. i've been thinking about this since i still go.
i'm surprised at how much a person can get away with if they are in a hall that they have no family in that particular kingdom hall.... at the memorial i put on so much dark eye make-up i was shocked my husband didn't say anything walking out the door.
instead, i got compliments, lol, not exactly what i planned on.... one of my friends who faded went to the memorial and she had a pretty low cut shirt on.

PERSPECTIVE is largely a matter of everyday conditioning
by Terry inwhat seems normal and natural to us comes from what we are around every day.
the things we hear and see are familiar.
even the wildest, weirdest things are commonplace when they are common around our place!.

God has a plan?!
by *Incubus insomething i cant comprehend is when religous types justify terrible things as part of "gods plan".
how does this make sense to anyone?im just interested in others viewpoints.

The reason it came up is because this brilliant woman I work with decided to insist on discussing a news story where a guy microwaved his baby.I had asked her repeatedly not to talk about it because Im extremely sensitive to child abuse and it makes me physically ill.She tried to explain to me that its ok because God will take care of it.
I hope that it makes the baby feel better was my reply.
Then she preached that God works in mysterious ways blah,blah,blah.One of his mysterious works is miscarriages,she says.God knows that there is something wrong with the baby so he takes it early.
Its so illogical to me..

simple question about popularity
by dippydo inhi everyone, this is only my second post under this name but i'm not actually new, just couldnt remember my password under my other name as havnt been on the board for a very long time, hey i've even had a bible study in the time i've been away.. anyway, my question is, do you think their is a pecking order within the congregation,not so much overseer, elder, common publisher etc, more as in, one particular family being popular, everyone sucking up to them, them looking down their noses at the meer mortals who perhaps cant afford to pioneer or live in a palace, etc etc..

I was told I sound like an Apostate
by senora inso i'm in the process of ditching my jw friends and one of them tells me that i'm starting to sound like an apostate why??
because i'm going to yet another congregation and she feels that i should stay in one cogo to get established.
first of all i'm about to go into a foreign language congo wherein i speak half the language and want to be fluent in that language, but my real reason is....i don't want friends and family finding out about my fade so they won't start calling me and bugging me.

Try having your mom be the one to warn just about everyone you know that youve "gone" apostate.
Just remember who's saying this.Someone who cant think for herself.Dont be offended.Move on up!
I am interested in the propositioning,was it outright harassment?
