i've lurked awhile and posted a few times, this place is definitely a site i plan to continue visiting.

i just wanted to say thanks for your good tips regarding the district convention, i never thought of spiking my drinks with good 'ol reliable vodka.

as far as i know, no one suspected me, but for some reason each day the drinks got stronger... i think that i certainly gained a new level of appreciation for the drama.

Same as (most) everyone, family. My mom would have a nervous breakdown if I DA'ed.

First of all, hi y'all. I've lurked awhile and posted a few times, this place is definitely a site I plan to continue visiting.

This was the most bearable DC in recent memory.

You will never overcome your Witness past...

... unless you read apostate views.. you may become inactive, like i did, and find a way to assimilate yourself into the normal world.. but you will always have at your core a view of the world that the witnesses gave you.

their basic teachings will still be your world view.. you will never realize you were indoctrinated by a cult.. for those poisoned by jehovah's witnesses there is only one antidote.. there is only one way to understand your life and progress from there.. the only true cure for jehovah's witnesses is apostasy..

I dunno, my "out" was science and history. It was only after I decided religion as a whole was a sham that I read anything apostate.

The SHOW must go on!!!

by leaving-jws in

i remember when i was a kid in "the truth.

there was an elderly sister that had a heart attack during the meeting.

she made loud gasping sounds as she was holding on for dear life.

I recall a CO, a tall gangly and frankly scary looking old man whose opening talk on his first visit was about brothers who died giving a talk, and he knew A LOT of them. The stories just kept going and going. He was my favorite CO, and no one else seemed to like him at all. I think it was at that point, when I realized no one else could appreciate his dark humor, that I knew I wasn't like the other sheep. Whatever happened to you, Bro. Felcher?

What determined the path you took once you came to your senses?

by donny in

i have been reading a lot of posts over the past few weeks and noticed how some folks have taken the atheist/agnostic path, while others have replaced their zeal for the society into one of another faith.

what led you to take the path you did?.

for me, i just began doing a lot of deep thinking and trying to come to the most logical conclusion based on the facts that i had before me.. as a result, i have taken the agnostic path because it makes the most sense to me.

Turkey Sandwich

Well, I never really accepted the Bible on faith, my belief in it hinged upon the prophesies that I believed had been predicted and fulfilled. I found out about 607/586 through a regular ol' history book doing some research and kind of took off from there. Everything since has been about science and history, what can be proven through repeatable experiments and diligent research, not superstition and ignoring history. I am atheist. Still "in" though. =/
