Not upset in the least. Not a joke. Very good life. Perfect, no, but whose is?

I feel my life is perfect, thank you very much. If you feel yours isn't and assume that everyone else's isn't either, perhaps ol' Jokehovah's blessings aren't working out so well for ya kid (I refer to all JW zombies as kids due to their childish and selfish beliefs). And if you haven't been to a meeting years, why jump on the merry bOrg wagon and wave its flag?

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Why does it bother you so much? Anyway, anyone that says their life is "perfect" is not the sharpest tool in the shed. From what I see lot muscle, little brains.

Just because you have a narrow view of the religion, it's children and it's God does that mean we all must jump ship and adhere to your views? Geesh. No thanks, trying to quit stereotypical muscle head forum nazi.

@Clambake-Is that all you have? Grow up.

@Smiddy-The GB has told me nothing. I'll doublecheck my email though. And every religion has its issues.

@DJS-I havent been to a meeting in years. I admire your intent but nothing so far said here has moved me to consider changing.

Therefore it is an open forum for all is it not? Are we to just tolerate those that give us a "virtual" pat on the back and not challenge us to view different perspectives, albeit opposite at times?

Oh and with your continued education be sure to add to your repertoire more "lingo" from this crowd. The "in crowd" is made up anti-jw's, evolutionists and those of ill repute. So when you use the power of reason to refute them they have to pull the "troll" card. ;-)

Grey Goose your "awakening" reminds me of a woman around 6000 years ago whose eyes were opened. We know how that worked out.

Proceed slowly grasshopper.

Grey Goose I see you have picked up some of the sordid lingo around here. Please explain your view of "fully awake"?

A sincere message to those from the organisation monitoring my posts....

so, i know there are some from my congregation or from bethel who monitor my posts..... maybe you're looking for something to catch me out?.

just a question: rather than trying to find fault with me, have you stopped and looked into the issues or facts about the organisation that caused me to come to a place like this forum??.

facts are there for anyone to find nowadays....one just has to be willing to pull their head out of the sand.....

Ancient Israel brought a lot suffering on it's people because of misguided men who chose their own ways. Similar today. Nothing new.

Suffering from an org doesn't necessarily delete it's validity.

WT Study 1/10/16 Encouraging Child Baptism And More Nonsense

by JW_Rogue in

i've noticed that each wt lesson really only has one or two points they want remembered.

normally they build up to these by about the third subheading.

this week's lesson though was different, the main point was insidiously made through an experience in the first paragraph:.

Makemeanunbeliever

Though I disagree with many views on this site, this one I do agree on. We are told that marriage is a commitment and to wait past the bloom of youth. We are told baptism is a "dedication" and is greater than a commitment. How much more so should one wait past the bloom of youth for baptism then?

Im sick of my life

sorry but i really feel like i need to rant right now.

recently my dad was made an elder so my family has been doing a lot more "theocratic" activities lately.

every morning i wake up and put on my itchy dress and stupid makeup and heels and then pretend that i love what i'm doing and that everybody is my friend when in reality i feel horrible and all the other teenage girls at my hall hate me for some reason.

Makemeanunbeliever

Baptism will not make you "fit in" or make your life "better" unless you absolutely want to and understand the full ramifications it. Take your time. Do it because "you" want to not because everyone else is doing or parents make you. Ask your parents, does God want me to get baptized if I don't feel Im ready?
