  The Presumption of Divine Appointment!

  by Confession in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower society has frequently denied that they are divinely inspired prophets.

  yet they demand they be considered as if inspired prophets, not even allowing the flock to question or have doubts about any of their teachings without coming under scrutiny.. .

  similarly, many of our beloved active jws--although knowing full well we don't recognize the society as any sort of divinely appointed agency--still expect us to act as if they are.

  my old hall was made up of mostly 3 large families, with some extended added in.

  all seemed to be related in one way or another, several generations represented.. coming in from the world at the age of 28, i never really felt that i belonged there.

  i stuck it out for 13 years.

  Why does guilt often remain so long with those who've left the JWs?

  by And He Ran in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i would be interested in getting people's input in why so many jws - including me from time to time, though less so now - seem to be burdened by guilt after they've left, even after they've successfully faded and aren't being hassled by family or elders.

  is it a residual leftover of the indoctrination over the years?

  i welcome your comments.
