I wanted to walk out of the KH when talks like this about gay people were given. I didn't feel I could leave in case I raised suspicions...........it doesn't take much for congregation jungle drums to stike up a beat.
I'd prayed to god since I was a very young boy not to be the way I was. I 'confessed my sin' to the elders on several occasions in order not to have a secret sin that could be blocking his holy spirit on the congregation. I'd heard this could happen at the meetings.
JW kids that are gay are having a hellish time, they are told about young brothers that relied on Jehovah got married & are no longer gay....... totally incomprehensible to a gay kid.
They are told to pray more, read the bible more, preach more, do more of this, do more of that, keep your mind on spiritual things.
It DOESN'T work.
It's a lie & until you are an adult & through experience can understand this many years later the JW kid that you were believes it's your own fault & that god hates you. That it would be better to kill yourself than give god the satisfaction killing you at Armageddon.
Yep, gay JW kids are really screwed up.
