  Oh Boy!!

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my sister met me at the laundry mat today to tell me how she doesn't think its wise for me to ":go out with worldly friends" i should go out with the "sisters" n the congregaion.

  the 'love you and have your best interests at heart' well, everytime i've tried to call somebody to see if they wanted to go somewhere, it was always an interference with meetings, or field service, or personal study.

  how can i tell her these witness sisters are hurting me everytime they open their mouths.

  I feel really angry

  by Quester55 in

  2. beliefs

  i feel angry, bitter, resentful and stupid.

  when i was in my 30's and young and strong, and had a long stretch of life ahead of me, i went along with the jw's and didn't get my education.

  now that i am 50, divorced and barely making a living as a teacher aide, i am scrounging around trying to get the loans and grants to enable me to go to school to earn a b.a.

  Lawyers at Bethel

  by nbernat in

  2. beliefs

  i heard that bethel pays for brothers' undergrad and law school expenses if they serve as lawyers, is that true?

  also, just to see the hypocrisy, would they accept someone who went to harvard law even if they weren't a regular pioneer?

  2. beliefs

  why are there so many old women in jw world who are so down on men?

  my divorce will be finalized next month, it hurt me, but it was and is an unfortunate circumstance of life.

  but among the jw women it was assumed that i was happy my marriage had ended so now i would have more time for meetings and field service.

  i can no longer be among the ranks of the whining, complaining and naysayers who do not vote in our national elections.

  what individuals choose to do according to free will is their own business.

  i heard soeting somewhere that has continued to prick my consciense for a long time.
