Today's Daily Text - Being Uneducated And Ordinary... WTF!!!

by Divergent in

jw
friends

thursday, march 3. they were uneducated and ordinary men.—acts 4:13.. in recent years, the spiritual instruction provided by jehovah’s organization has reflected an increased emphasis on simplicity and clarity.

consider three examples.

first, there is the simplified edition of the watchtower.

They have wind in their sails, but no rudder.

Booze boy, the middle years.

by olongapo joe in

in some of my earlier post, i mention how prevalent booze was (and still is in my life).

now, the only thing this has to do with jw's, is, that, at the time, both my parents were (still are active jw's).

a quick rehash, at one yr. old, my parents become jw's.

JRK

Looking forward to the continuation of your story.

THE LINGERING SHADOW OF '75

by Terry in

none of you are old enough to have been there, i suspect.

i had been in prison two years as a jw conscientious objector when the exciting news about 1975 spread like wildfire.i was paroled from prison in 1969 and immediately began pioneering.

the pressures began mounting throughout the organization.

This year is the 41st anniversary of the invisible Armageddon.

I am leaving the JW's . I am alone and scared. Advice and help needed please

by scared and lonely in

i am sorry that on my first post i am asking for help and advice but i am at my wits end.

i have been brought up a witness all my life and it is all i know.

i am an ex-elder and pioneer and i don't know anybody outside of the congregation.. i have been unhappy for so long and wanted to leave.

JRK

Well you did take down the gofundme site. That is a good start. I probably may have reacted like some others here if you had not.

What I think we have here is a failure to communicate.

We need more information. We have had frauds here before you, and I am sure more in the future. So try not to get your panties in a bunch that people are skeptical.

You apparently have been coddled. A 3rd or more generation witness (they may be overlapping). I hate to break it to you, there are no "green handshakes" outside of the religion. Do not expect funding from us.

We will give you support. But first let us get to know you.
