it was mentioned in another thread that gb is struggling with the lack of zeal from many active jws.

i thought of the real attitude and behavior of the active jws in my congo.

this is what i really really see..... profile of my congregation and people close to me: married couples from their mid 30s to early 40s planning to and having children, saving for retirement and going back to college.

i've always been told that i have a very good personality, that i'm humorous, etc.. one elder called me over and said that i was "smiling too much".

the other elders talked to the elder who counseled me and he came back to say that i should be like i was .

my humor.....one time i went into this "questionable" store....and i bought this toilet paper roller....looked good and fit right in...ANYWAY....being an elders wife and having a key to the hall,,,,i went one evening,,,cleaned the hall,,,the put this roller in the mens bathroom stalls...hahahahahaha

so,,,when the "dump" is done,,,,and a swirl of toilet paper was needed,,,it played,,,,,hahahaha..."old lang xyne" ....should old acquaintence be forgot and never brought to mind,,,,,etc etc....

i tried to be good,,,but....i just never could be...and i did try....it was a continuious battle...one that i lost...over,,,and over,,,,and over....and over....

Would any of you DESTROY ones faith and life as a JW if they were your dying grandparents?

this is a serious question, trying to decide the right thing to do.........i do believe in god, i am sorting out what i believe and true from lie and such.

have question on how atheist and just ones belief in god would respond to this.. .

if you have a grandparent, (or even some relative) who spent their entire life as a jw.

peaches

no no no.....leave them alone...love them to the best of your ability....do not give them emotional pain,,that really could "kill" them....i do not know how it was for the rest of you...but....learning,,,leaving...the organization has been excrusiating....no need to do that to them....just my opinion..peaches
