collecting money after every meeting.
i could never get someone to help, and i was always last to leave.
when i did finally have one person who would help, if i used them too often i got questions about why the two of us were always taking the contributions.
I was on the Purchasing Team of our RBC with an overseer who wasnt sexist...I was sent to 'handle' the purchasing on a Quick Refurb at a coastal village KH one weekend...as a sister....it was really an admin piece of cake but then the PO of that cong couldnt deal with me being a sister with some authority and made life unbearable the whole weekend....I couldnt wait to leave...

if you leave the "safe waters" of the organization and go back into the world, you are doomed to misery----per the watchtower.....was that your experience?.
When I was unjustly disflwshpd I was dealing with a divorce from an abusive husband, a fight for custody of a daughter, a battle to keep the home we lived in, to name but a few issues...I'd already noticed that these problems werent the sort that were acceptable enough to get help from elders or approved members of the cong..(who previously were sooo friendly)...within 6 months I developed a small cancer...I went into hospital alone...when I woke from the operation a 'wordly' friend was sitting beside me...I'd only known her a few months..one of my adult sons visited me once to tell me that he hoped that now that I had hit rock bottom I would see the need to fight my way back to the truth....he left me in tears...when I arrived home to an empty house as I thought, another new 'worldly' friend was there who had come to stay and look after me for a few days, off her own back I hasten to add...these same friends helped me as I went through further treatment and needless to say I didnt see any JWs including my adult kids....
Its been a wonderful surprise to meet and know these and many other people in the world who are caring and loving and unconditional. During my 30 years in the org I'd forgotten such individuals could exist...and then, joy of joys I met my now husband, an atheist, and an adorable, kind, clever man. Although I grieve for my family and friends I've had to leave behind in there, I have never been so happy...
Hope that answers your question Minimus...

how often does anyone see cheating happening throughout the congregation?.
reason that i ask this is because it happened to me.
in this three years things seemed to go great.
Hi EXMS...I'm sorry to hear this happened to you...not nice at all...I dont understand why you got reproved either ...that seems totally out of order?? I used to see that the bros and sis used to 'shop' round the congs as if potential partners were commodities....and they would drop ones and pick up seemingly better ones quite a lot...
Not a good way to encourage young people to find life partners is it?..Pretty sad if you ask me...I wish you well...there will be a lovely girl for you dont fret... and maybe next time you fall in love it can be more naturally than the way the org promotes these matches...

it is here in writing the new generation change.
on page 5 of the of the wt while talking about the annual meeting report.. "john barr gave the third and final talk.".
"john barr made clear that the gathering wound not continue indefinitely.
I actually remember them using the dictionary definition of 'contemporary' in their publications too !! That was when it was to convince us that once they all died off Armageddon would come...have they now swapped their dicitionaries for something else?? like comic book fairy tales....

i heard a song that i thought was pretty.
however, for the first time im analizing their music;do they belive in satanism?they always talk about the enemy god not in words, hiding words to be exact..or im just imagining things.
anyways, i've deleted their music.
Yes they are very Satanic, I heard that they all drink the blood of a goat before they
perform on stage and quote a verse out of the Satanic bible.
Their name means playing up on earth before they enter hell.
Ha ha ha ha ...
I've had my suspicions ever since Chris Martin married Gwyneth Paltrow. I think she is the antichrist.
Ha ha ha..
I heard that if you buy one of there CD's that sometimes at night in turns into a demon and tries to choke you while your sleeping. So just don't keep any of their CD's in the house.
Lololol...you guys crack me up...you really do...

in the june 15th wt it says on page 9 i will just write it out as it is to hard and unbelievable to preface this.
so here it is.. "many who today are members of the christian congregation can tell you that before learning of and adopting jehovah's righteous standards, they lived without moral restrain.
yet, they were unsatisfied and unhappy.
Its all so predictable though isnt it? The witnesses reading this could have written it themselves ..its just like a formula...actually it IS a formula of course...

......for being so obedient and cooperative during our lives as jw's.
for getting ready for all of those meetings and doing their best to study before hand and comment.
for volunteering to help the elderly and others with yard work and cooking and babysitting.
Lovely post WF you certainly have been very lucky. I want to thank my now husband for helping me to open my eyes to the org and recover from the grief enough, to now be able to come and enjoy forums like this....I met him after I'd left and his patience and understanding together with his very clever intellectual reasoning was so beneficial for me. He now shares his family with me which in part compensates for the loss of my own.
