  PS- Jesus must of been a sneeky SOB, Imean he could have just come out and said things right? I mean he was the WORD of God, why mislead? why confuse?

  Maybe he is just like his father in the OT.

  I have changed sides

  by AK - Jeff in

  almost imperceptible over time in some areas.. almost everything i ever believed, i have proven to be false.

  almost every bit of my deep seated faith is uprooted by reason.. i am not bitter.

  but i am quite reflective these days of how much i have changed.

  why i wept bitterly in front of two elders......

  not sure if i ever shared this...but have seen several "sharing" threads here lately and it motivated me..... when i met with the co and po about some doubts and an important question....and when i got the co's answer.....i could not speak....i put my head down and just started crying...not sobbing cause i fought it back...finally the only words to come out were..."i am going to have to leave my wife and son"....and they were like wtf?...but in jw lingo of course.

  see i knew in that instant...that very moment....that i had been lied to my entire life...and my stack of doubts i had been piling on the shelf and waiting on jehovah were all valid....and i knew i would never fit in again...not even with my wife and son...that i would never be the spiritual head they needed and wanted.....that was almost 4 years ago...man time flies...and yep...now i am separated from my jw wife...and yep...i did not fit in...not even with her...and my son is older now and moved out but we are not close.

  btw...i had printed out all 12 places in rev.

  Yes, it is an awful feeling when you realize that the whole thing you based your actions and beliefs on was a lie, Thanks for sharing oompa, and I hope you are doing well. Still looking foreward to that bike ride this spring.

  need some advise.

  my friend has been with her boyfriend for almost 4 years, and for 3 of them the sex has been getting less and less.

  I got out in 06 due to the hypocracy and the nonsense teachings. I should say I checked out mentally years before, walked away in 06. No net needed.

  She was despondent and he feared she was suicidal. She had been drinking the night of Dec. 26, he told police.
  
  Most suicides are around Christmas. You know how dubs are against celebrating or enjoying holidays. Maybe she was depressed because she could not be like 99.9% of normal people and enjoy Christmas.
