Its hard but you will have to reconcile yourself to the fact that they will do whatever suits them and justify it in their own circular way. I used to get mad at my ex for the things he did - works casino do - its ok I'm the driver so I can go... Etc etc - in the end realised the only one feeling negative was me and what is the point in that?

How would your ex-witness friends describe you "fact or fiction" wise? 100 worlds or less.
by ÁrbolesdeArabia instart this ball rolling, i asked a "holy roller jw" what happend to brother "missing"?.
"his feelings were hurt and he bruised so easy, you'all know the "truth" ain't for weak people!
" bingo, she surmised all this and never talked to brother "missing".

Probably that I am a prime example of what happens if you go to Uni where they teach 'worldly philosophy'
(Even though I did multimedia design and computing)

And as jwfacts pointed out the worst kind of upbringing is where the family aren't really in it but just go along. The kids are brought up with a whole lot of restrictions and no reason why! My nephews family don't even go to meetings but their child won't be allowed to be involved in holidays and celebrations at school . What's the point in making their kids suffer and be singled out? :( x x

In fact I said it lazily but jwfacts mirrors what I was thinking on that point.
My son is 16 - he's a moral and sensible boy - best of all he isn't leading a double life
he doesn't have to! I've watched all my nephews/nieces go thrugh so many issues and be I trouble for lying about things that should just be normal for teenagers!

Hmm. Because you can't have a moral structure for your children without the meetings ....
Where kids grow up and learn to be deceitful have guilt and feel like bad people. :(

Old Enough To Make One's Own Decisions In Life
by JWB inold enough to make one's own decisions in life.
"daksha patel was born in kenya to hindu parents, and she herself was a devout hindu.
but when she studied the bible with witnesses in wolverhampton, england, she realized that she was learning the truth.

Funnily enough they managers control people well into adulthood and yet when it comes to a ten year old wanting to be baptised they are 'mature'
not mature enough to choose a mate or be unchaoeroned but mature enough to dedicate their lives to A religion hmmm

Survey: Who here is an atheist? Who here still believes in God?
by Christ Alone ini just wanted to take a survey.
let's not let this get into the same old same old debate of atheism vs belief.
just respond with "atheist" or "believer" or "maybe god exists".

I'm a dipper. Not just with this forum but all aspects of life. I have bouts of visiting forums or other activities depending where I'm at in life. One week I am being creative another I'm baking another I'm getting healthy, another I'm interested in one topic or another..I'm enthusiastic about different things at different times, doesn't make anyone's comments any less valid IMO but of course regulars will be more social with one another that's perfectly natural as people form friendships and networks via social forums, I myself have made some friends via parenting and pregnancy forums where I am much more of a regular. I guess it's whatever is close to home!

Did you feel guilty for not pioneering?
by brokethechain ini started pioneering the month i finished high school, and never stopped until i awakened, 17 years later.
it seems like the entire time, there was so much emphasis on pioneering.
every field service meeting seemed to have a part that communicated the message that jehovah would zap us at the big a. or people would die because of us if we didn't have extenuating circumstances (i always translated as bad health or kids, but even then, there were always "examples" of the mom with 5 kids that was pioneering).

Thank goodness no, i got an education. Obviously the worldly philosophies took me away from the truth..
