  Why did you get baptized?

  by NoLongerAjw in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  was it for love of the kingdom hall and jehovah?

  pressure .. felt like you had to?

  for me it was because all my friends my age had gotten baptized.. and it was left up to me to do it too.. to fit in i guess.

  Which meeting was the hardest to attend for you ?

  by NoLongerAjw in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for me i think it was the sunday meeting.. just wanting to stay home and sleep in.. but i think the watchtower study was the hardest to sit threw... you had to have it studied before hand.. and highlighted.. then sit there and listen to it all over again..

  Speaking of bathrooms at the DC

  by TweetieBird in

  reading mulan's thread about her daughter-in-law's experience in the bathroom, i couldn't help remembering what happened at one district convention in jacksonville.. a sister brought her little 2 year old son in to spank.

  she whipped him for so long with a thick comb and everytime the little boy would cry she would spank him some more because he was crying.

  i went back to my seat crying.

  there is a possibility that during my time as a jw i had knocked on every door and rang every doorbell and met just about every person in my whole area, especially during my over zealous pioneer episodes.

  now that i have left i have the dilemma of how to show everyone i'm normal again!

  it would be nice to walk down the street without sensing that everyone is trying not to meet your glance (mild paranoia!).

  I'm new here - sort of.....

  i understand you've met my other half - now it's my turn!

  i feel as though i've known some of you for ages as we've been regular visitors to the board for a long, long time so it's nice to be able to dive in at long last and make contact!

  life is good - the disassociation letters went out last november and things are unbelievably quiet, no phone calls, no visits and best of all - nobody rushing up to me in the street begging me to come back.

  Deep Impact

  by individual in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  has anybody seen the film deep impact?

  it was about the possible destruction of the world by an asteroid and it came out at about the same time as the film armageddon.

  the reason i ask is because this film had a very profound effect on me whilst i was still associating with the congregation.
