Wedding Talks
by Alexia ina few weeks ago, there was a thread started on jw funeral talks and how horrible they are, but what about those wedding talks?.
talks that has nothing to do with the couple itself, but an advertisement about how wonderful marriage in jehovahs organization is.
*eye roll * the worst is when they have to bring up sex in the marriage in a wedding talk *barf*.

Does anyone have parents who have left the BORG after you did?
by Alexia inim thinking about my mother today.
shes been in the truth for over 30 years now baptized in her mid 20s.

Not sure what to do - Not "in" and not "out"
by Alexia inlong story short: forgive my grammar, im in a hurry!.
i grew up as a jw by my mother who was baptized about two years before i was born.
my dad studied but was a severe (really severe) alcoholic and my older brother studied but was never really into it.
