Growing up a Jehovah's Witness
by jwfacts ingrowing up a jw makes a person unique, long after you leave.
even though i strongly disagree with much of what i was taught, i still am tainted by my upbringing in that i think a thought and then correct myself with what i now should think (or visa versa, think something and then remember what i once would have thought).. even now that i am far removed from watchtower thinking, i still feel somewhat of an alien from those around me.
though i am loved at work, i feel they laugh at me more than they laugh with me.. for some time now, i have been meaning to chronograph the concepts that a witness child is indocrinated with to show just how damaging an upbringing it is.

I too was raised a jehovah's witness , I still feel alianated from the rest of humanity to a degree. This alianation really hits home when you remember that once you leave you are alianated from your family and former friends. My association with the witnesses has scarred me for life.

I was treating patients at St Vincent's hospital in Manhatten. We all rushed outside to set up triage, and to assist the victims. To our horrer out of the thousands we expected, very few actually arrived. I lived outside the city at this time, and was stuck in NYC for hours due to road closures. That day I mourned for friends who worked in tower 2.

Describe The Jehovah's Witness Community
by minimus inin your experience, are witnesses all about love?.
is the brotherhood really what it is said to be?.
did you feel the love from "the friends"?.

I have to describe them as misguided trolls.The absalute they exercise over their members is so sad. I have a terrible relationship with my family due to their control techniques.

I stumbled onto the perfect way to get JWs to go away
by Elsewhere in.
they just now knocked on my door and i just stared at them through the peep hole.. it was kind of fun in a voyeuristic sort of way... just watching them stand there talking about, whatever.
after a minute they just walked away.. success!

Who was the biggest Jehovah's Witness rebel?
by slimboyfat inwho was raised a jw and went on to lead life in stark contrast to their upbringing?.
i have often thought the award should go to dwight eisenhower.
from a religion that railed against politics and warfare he first invaded western europe and then went on to become president of the united states.

Ray Franz by far. I had my doubts for quite a while, and had left the organazation for many years before I read his book. He enlightened me to what was really going on. Before me reading his book, I had thought it was a localized phenomina (congragation level) not a systemic hypocracy.
