  My life ... and how JWD came to be - Part 5

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 1. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 2. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 3. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 4. i swear, i thought it was only a couple of years at most since i wrote part 4 of "my life and how jwd came to be".

  i re-read it after someone posted to it and brought it back on active topics and it was kind of prophetic in a way ... well, i had the 5 years part right if nothing else:.

  it would be nice to visit the site (or whatever one is around then) in 5 years time to let people know how we're doing and find only a few of the same people still around.

  Jeff

  It does all get better

  over time

  My anger has left me

  I laugh at the craziness

  of the cult

  The damage that has been done

  is done

  My lost childhood and

  my teen years are gone forever

  My years as a young adult

  and then as a 30 and 40 something

  have passed

  The pain and fear that I had

  and suffered with (30 years worth)

  has become a distant memory

  NOW is what counts

  As death now approaches me

  (not soon I hope) I don't fear it

  I have begun to live my life

  as I wish. I'm no longer a slave

  to a belief system. I'm just another

  free man

  I have discovered that nothing

  much has changed......................

  Just my putlook and attitude

  by Belly in

  2. friends

  ive been lurking this site for quite a while but for some reason never could muster up the courage to post.. let me give a little background on my self.. i am 18 and male an still living with my parents.

  i was baptised at 15 basically against my will (by cracking under the pressure) but only truly broke out of the drone like mindswhen i was 17. since then its been totall choas in my life all of it stemming from the orginization of course.

  my parents are the defenition of brainwashed wittnesses, my father even belives he is anointed.. after i got baptised i suffered from intense deppression and with a little soul searching, after a year i realized that i need some time for my self.

  Did you ever make the wrong career choices?

  by Quirky1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know i have had several opportunities to transfer with a prominent position intact and turned them down to family logistics and such.

  now that i am older i regret the decisions i made.

  i may not have been on easy street but it would have made things a whole lot better.

  I agree with Jehovah's Witnesses!

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i agree with jehovah's witnesses!.

  (i bet reniaa will be shocked to see this thread!).

  to jehovah's witnesses: i commend your zeal for god, your desire for accurate knowledge and truth of the bible, your goals of drawing close to jehovah, and following and obeying christ's teachings, and your time spent studying the bible.

  That which you agree with

  is only believed by faith in

  the unknowable, unprovable,

  myths, and legends

  After almost 54 years on this

  earth, I prefer belief in that which

  I can see, hear, touch, and

  substanciate

  When theory, insight, and inspiration

  are reproducable by others

  they then move beyond faith and

  hope and into the realm of fact

  and truth

  Read the latest findings of brain science

  Read the current writings from biblical scholars

  and theology professors. Learn what they have

  known for the last 200 years and have kept

  from the R&F membership regarding scripture and

  history

  I would like to thank my children......

  by awildflower in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  ......for being so obedient and cooperative during our lives as jw's.

  for getting ready for all of those meetings and doing their best to study before hand and comment.

  for volunteering to help the elderly and others with yard work and cooking and babysitting.

  Are You Paul or are you Saul?

  by reniaa in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this was the same man at different times in his life yet he changed his name because he completely changed his ideals and goals too.

  both were extremely zealous, both thought they were doing gods work, both thought they were working for the greater good.. acts 8:3 (new international version)3but saul began to destroy the church.

  going from house to house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.. soul thought gods work was to destroy the christians but paul.... acts 20: 19i served the lord with great humility and with tears, although i was severely tested by the plots of the jews.

  Sorry Reniaa............................

  I'm like Murray

  Just a guy waiting for his coffee

  and pie while dreaming of the

  brown haired girl English girl sitting

  at the bar, engaged in endless chatter,

  and with me wondering what she would

  look like in the buff............................

  <blink, blink>

  Awake now

  What was I saying????
