  Holidays-nervous about celebrating them but don't understand why.

  by QuestioningEverything in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have came to the conclusion that all i learned while growing up as a witness is not the "truth'.

  i believe i have become agnostic in a short period of time.

  so, this year i decided that we are going to celebrate some holidays.

  this is something that i have been asked several times and have wondered myself.

  it would alleviate all of the uncomfortable situations involved with flag saluting, birthday parties, etc...

  i have an aunt who is one year younger than me, she's my mom's youngest sister.. we have always been very close and were more like sisters.

  we were both baptised as a jw and were always together.

  around 2002, she became inactive then she got baptised as a mormon in 2004!

  Wow-I didn't know.

  i am shocked and saddened by the things that i have learned from this website and a few others i've seen.

  my grandma was a witness and my mom started to study seriously when i was 8 yrs.

  i was baptised at 13-way too young.
