Hopefully the Watchtower can back me up on this one.

FORCED TO BE GOOD??!!?!?
by JW72 ini was just thinking that the 'goodness' jw's display doesn't necessarily have to be 'pure' goodness, if u know what i mean.. i mean they become so obsessed and dependant on the wts telling them what they can, can't, should, shouldn't, will, and wont do that they no longer make 'pure' judgements for themselves.
even if what the wts is 'good, christian advice', as long as they're not deciding to do it themselves, it loses the righteousness that making decisions, good and bad, is all about.. it's like having really domineering parents who tell u exactly what to do, u do it through fear, not through the will to do good, u don't learn, u only learn to obey.. any comments?.
merry sundays.

I'm not trying to differentiate between 'righteous' and 'good' I was just displaying my vast vocabulary, hehehe.
I think u can substitute one word for the other, in my post, anyway.

I don't need love from JW's, family or not.
I have plenty of non-JW's who can give me the love I need to support me.
Anyway, there's no such thing as 'love' from a JW.Bye

Urban Legends!
by ISP inits amazing the extent these circulate in the wt world.
i am not so sure, but it develops a powerful folklore amongst jws....often with a moral at the end!
typically these circulate as experiences given in talks and are then adopted by the masses as truth.. for example, anyone hear the ul about the married couple where the wife had to have a routine blood check.

My own dad told me that when he was down, he prayed, and both times, the next day, a JW was there!!!!!
Freaky, coming from your own dad.
However, coinsidence is a powerful thing.

I genuinely don't have a clue. Of course, they would say that they are, but do they really think they are, or are they just saving face, after realising that people buy this facade!!!!
Happy sunday everyone!!

P.S I've changed my handle, my brother advised me to, it gave too much away!!
