The need usually becomes greater when these zealots arrive.

I have just left my parents home and the JW's about six months ago and have found it hard to get over.
by StephanieH ini finally desided to leave the witnesses therefore my family and basicly everyone and everything i had ever known.
i was 19 about to be 20 and i had just finished my first semester at a community college.
i was shocked at the respons of my father and others about me attending college at first they were ok but behind my back they were pretty much betting on my failier.

Oh Dear Stephanie, my heart goes out to you. You are going through way too much. Living with alcoholic parents is no joke. I hope you have gone on line and joined a website for children of alcoholics - it has been a huge help to a lot of my friends (of any age)

The Generation(s) That Wasted Their Lives
by undercover ingrowing up as a jw, you see the world differently than most everyone else.
you see the world as something that is going to end very soon.
all that we know will be gone by the time we're adults.. when we were young, we were living in the last days and were expecting armageddon before we grew old.

BABLYRUTH:
When my brother threw a baseball and broke our kitchen window my Dad seriously pondered weather he should replace it, because after all "the end is so near". The year was 1959
I think our fathers may be related. This story is priceless

The witnesses in their 70's and 80's are desperate to see themselves proved right. They are staring at death, which was never, ever to happen to them - they were not to even go to kindergarten because the end was so near. Now, any non-theocratic time is usually spent watching the news so they can link all world events to the start of the big A.
The tornado in Joplin was another indicator that the big A is closer than we think

Who drove the Christendom Car in Field Service?
by prophecor inthey were affectionately called christendom cars.
you know, the 2 door coupes that the friends had to struggle to get in and out of the back seat, out in service.
was it you, or did you do the spiritually respnosible thing and drive the 4 door sedan?.

And best of all - you could pack 6 to 8 people in a mini-van.
It was always so unbelievably embarrassing when we would park and the van doors would hurl open and about 10 people of every color, size and age would all fall out with their little territory card, bible, pencils and back call slips. What a comical sight for all the neighbors who were scurrying to close blinds, lock doors and hide as fast as possible.

The only reason the above may have happened is because the poor brother has been preached to (at every meeting) that when you associate with the world it will end in FORNICATION. The brother was probably just following what he has heard from the platform his whole life.

Why do the women put up with it?
by JeffT inmy question was sparked by a comment on another board, regarding islamic women.
"exactly; look up the details of the "honor killing" epidemic and the extent to which women are the primary movers and motivators behind the murders is startling.
also, looking at the secular countries that are being threatened by islamic fundamentalism (malaysia, indonesia, egypt, turkey) and woman are at the forefront in returning to wearing the niquab/burka and accepting islamic oppression.
