Cyberjesus I got the same troubles. Just broke up with a girl that I loved after 2 months of dating. We can't stand to be a part a mutual friend got us f*cking tonight after a few drinks. We had the best sex and conversation ever. She asked what change I said I gave up trying to make the relationship and just taking whatever she gives, which is sex for now. I told her I am a total screw up at relationships, she silently agreed.

Please explain the point of being Good?
by Brocephus ini never understood the point of being good and righteous if the only punishment for not doing so was "nothing" i would die and nothing would happen.
just nothing, no hell, no pain, no regret... just nothing.. on the other hand if i am good.... i have to deal with the jw's and their rules and boring meetings forever!!!
no worldly girls to sneak around with on saturday night.. no keg parties to sneak off too on friday?....

My point was to point how the lack of logic in the JW afterlife. What they feel is an incentive is really not, and their verson of eternal damnation is really quite appealing. I believe this even goes for believers if they actually thought about. Which leads me to assume JW's are power mongering tyrants or brainwashed idiots.

The trouble with fading as your leaving strategy
by eyesthatsee inwhatever your chosen strategy for leaving jws, the fundamental truth is that there is no clean / simple exit.
the mind control, the manipulation of normal family relationships etc will make any strategy very difficult at times.
the key issue is to know this ahead of time and be prepared, as best you can.. we've all chosen leaving strategies acording to our personal circumstances, preferences and learning from others.

The moment I knew it was crap....
by Brocephus inalready had doubts from the time i got pubes... but i was about 15 and we were studying the revelation "book" for the upteenth time.
i realized for every actual bible verse they qouted there was 2-3 paragraphs of conjecture, assumption, faulty logic and just plain stupidity.
that's when i began to plan my escape.

Did you read the literature?
by WuzLovesDubs ininitially i suppose i did.
i know i over studied the articles for the wt study because i thought my enthusiasm as a study would make me more accepted.
but after awhile i didnt read the awakes at all except for a cursory glance because i was giving them to people.

Keyser...yes the long pause. I mastered that one too. My mouth would go silent as my eyes begged, "please tell me to scram so I can go to Dairy Queen for break and get on with my day".

The Governing Body is Powerless (Without Comradeship)
by acolytes inthe governing body is powerless (without comradeship) and comradeship is one of the great needs for people.. the price for this companionship is a persons individuality, as individual love is exchanged for communal individuality and communal love.. because of the humun need for comradeship the governing body can teach whatever they like and demand what ever they like from the masses.. iam glad i exchanged comradeship for an individual life and freedom .. acolytes..

Don't forget about the Comradery of the oppressed and persecuted (which is why the Watchtower fights so hard to maintain this perception) Yes the GB has know this fact for a long time.

The starting point of "Good" for the purposes of this conversation shall be following the Watchtowers rules so as not to incur God's angry wrath at armageddon and be humilitated and put down like a rabid dog. Sorry if I wasn't clear.
Remember this is about a teenager asking his JW parents to please explain the point of all these stupid rules again...
no military
no football
no dances
no dating
no holidays
no birthdays
get the idea?

I meant Good as in obeying the JW rules... not refraining from murdering and raping my friends.

I told my parents as a teenager all of this. They looked at me like I had horns growing out of my head.
