  The last meeting you ever went to.......

  by watersprout in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't know whether this has ever been asked, so i apologize if i'm repeating.. what did you do at the last meeting you ever attended?

  did you stay for the whole thing?

  what made you realize that this was your last meeting, or did you not know it would be your last meeting??.

  my last meeting january 1992, id not been to the meetings for about 6months, (i was ill supposedly).

  forced myself back. 2weeks later i was sat at the back of the meeting, thinking to myself

  "thats it i will never walk in to a kingdom hall again"

  i was very calm, relaxed, happy with my decision.

  got up after the prayer. said goodbye to anyone who i cared for...

  and i have never been back, and never regretted it.

  years later i met a former "bruver" who was a good pal who i said goodbye to that night.

  and he said he could tell by the way i said goodbye to him, that i would not be back.

  he's also been left for many years now.

  How much do you believe in God's blessings?

  by stillstuckcruz in

  2. beliefs

  the more i talk to the brothers and sisters, the more i question what so-called "blessings" god gives to us.

  yesterday i had the #3 talk at the hall.

  and because my family has that "perfect family example" status in the hall, i got all the comments about how wonderful i did and how fantastic it was for being a young man(20)....yada yada yada.

  i was a jw for almost 7yrs, an ardent one most of the time

  i at no time felt i was ever blessed by jehovah, or god or whatever you want to call him.

  Is this not an easy question?

  by the pharmer in

  i wanted my jw friend's perspective on something, so i asked them this question:.

  if i read a passage of scripture and conclude about it something that opposes the wt's view of the same passage, in your mind who has the truth about that passage (i.e.

  who is correct)?

  Good talk with mum and dad

  by boyzone in

  2. experiences

  she's 77 and both mum and dad have been witnesses for nearly 30 years.

  they've been pretty hardline in their time but just recently things have changed.

  today, to my joy, mum wanted to celebrate her birthday so i bought her a big bunch of flowers and a box of chocolates (yeah i know, not very imaginative) and intend to take them out to lunch tomorrow when i've got more time.

  thanks for the comments

  some of you guys are wicked, its one thing to laugh at the story, but to tell everyone....

  your going straight to hell....

  i suppose i can see the slap stick in it, poor old sod.

  of course the story in my opinion begs the question is there a god?

  simply put without getting out the bible if god gives a shit about people, why does he let bad things happen to them.

  i never really understood why witnesses said "a house dosent make it self, or a watch"

  how can that possibly be compared to the universe and all that exsists within it

  i would love it if there was a god, but the facts say otherwise in my opinion

  anyway her daughter drove her there in the car.

  when they arrived her daughter was helping her out of the passenger side and she fell and broke her hip.

  now apart from that being a very upseting story, please tell me how can there be a god?

  America's last WWI veteran, dies aged 110

  by shepherd in

  2. beliefs

  america's last surviving veteran of world war i, frank buckles, has died aged 110.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-12601173.

  the gb can change what a generation means but eventually even the most blind jw will see that describing a 'generation' as something that exceeds the lifetimes of all those alive at the time is just silly..

  it was stupid enough to give it self a sell by date.

  now its up.

  but of course they will blame it on being to eager for the end to come.

  when will people wake up to religion (and i mean all religion)

  my name is tim, im 23, from the uk, and im currently a jw!.

  ok... to cut a long story short... i love serving jehovah but ive begun now to embrace my sexuality as a gay man.. although im still attending the meetings, praying to jehovah and trying my hardest, i can no longer lie to myself about my sexuality.. i have had enough of feeling depressed and confused now - its killing me!!!.

  does anyone else know what i feel like?
