As a JW Did other Witnesses Annoy you by Condemning " Worldly Music" ?
by flipper ini know i got bothered by all the self righteous music police who would condemn me or others for our awesome record collections from early years as a teenager .
several experiences were really quite odd .
one brother came up to me saying i was wrong to listen to the moody blues " nights in white satin "!

Do they still feel that way today about what music jws are listening to? Some of the music my sil and daughter have on their ipods could probably get them in some serious trouble.

I think the WT need's to ban sports, all sports! My sil and daughter are both coaches, they love their job. If the WT bans sports again, that would be enough to make my family members leave the WT!

Exposing their duplicity
by Mickey mouse ini thought i would have a go at writing to a journalist about the jehovah's witness shunning policy.
i sent this to stephen bates, the religious affairs correspondent for the guardian (he wrote the story about the wt and the un back in 2001).. i have no idea if it will result in anything but here it is:.
dear mr bates,.

WTS causing more anguish
by GapingMouth ini don't really know where to start on my first post; i feel i have so much to say and yet i am so emotionally tired that it is hard to go through it all again in my head.
but, i do need support and advice and so i will make the effort.. i started having doubts about certain beliefs of the witnesses about 2 years ago and did research since that i now come to the belief there is no god, and witnesses definitely are a cult.. at first it bothered me more on the god issue, but now i am more bothered by the cult issue, mainly because it dictates my life even though i am aware of it.. when i was a child, my mother and father divorced and my mother told me i will live with my father because she was going to die at armageddon being a non witness.
i think, as well as many other pressures i cant list for fear of a very long post, this was the main pressure that made me get baptized even though i wasn't that happy being a witness.

I like the idea of sending them COC as a wedding gift, it may be the best gift they ever receive.

OutLaw, so happy to hear your dog recovered, it was so sad reading what happened to him. How good of you to get him some help, some would let the dog die. Your a good man and I'm sure your kids will be happy you saved his life. I don't know how you held it together seeing your dog all chewed up but you did and he's still here because you acted fast and stayed calm. A nice ending to a sad stroy.
