  Do you miss "dressing up" for the meetings?

  i was thinking about this the other day when doing a bit of tidying up of my wardrobe.

  all the kh suits are now pushed to the back of the wardrobe and i am seriously thinking about a visit to the charity shop to get rid of most of them.. for me one of the (few) enjoyable aspects of being a jw was getting dressed up.

  my secular work very rarely involves putting on a dress suit & tie so i miss getting dressed up - smart suit , tie , shiny shoes , slapping on the aftershave.

  NO BLOODY WAY!!! I hated wearing suits, haven't worn one since I've left the cult.

  The necktie to me was like a noose.

  "i explain how i learned from a history of god by karen armstrong that the evidence indicates that the jewish concept of monotheism evolved from the syncretism of various polytheistic sources like canaanite and babylonian polytheism".

  Thank you whereami

  I loved it, I'm looking forward to part 2.

  Sad how most of mankind has been blinded by religion, when no one really knows why/who wrote these dusty old books that have been pasted together and are now called 'The Word Of God' by so many.

  last week, i told you i was going to tell my daughter that i was leaving the truth this weekend and you all gave me sound advice.

  but, i cannot keep a secret this heavy from the person i love most on this earth, my only daughter, who is beautiful inside and out.. well, i have always had an open and honest relationship with my daughter, and i guess it paid off.

  this weekend i visited my daughter (who lives in another state) and i told her i was leaving "the truth.

  JK Part 4

  jk666- the really sketchy years-part 4. a lot of what i am going to say here, is piecing together fragmented pieces of my memory.

  i really was a good kid that fell into bad circumstances.. i was the fair haired boy in my congregation.

  i was a true believer, even after that awful incident.

  If anyone gives a shit.

  I think people do, but more importantly, you will likely help someone without even knowing it. So many lurk here without registering or commenting.

  Every story like yours is another nail in the coffin for this cult. Your words here on JWN will live on long after you & I are dead & buried.

  JK, stay strong my friend! Don't let this shitty cult tear you down.

  Life normally gets better when you leave, unless you have been damaged from your past so badly that you can't let go. If so find help wherever possible. At the very very least let it all out here or PM me if you like, whatever works for you.

  I feel for you my friend, even though I can NEVER imagine the pain you went through or the pain you are experiencing now.

  Time helps heal but people helping you along the way speeds things up.

  *update* Just saw what you wrote about your ex-wife. Man that must kill you inside.

  hi, i've been lurking for a few days reading the site, interesting stuff ;).

  i've been out of the org for 23 years, i was 27 i left an agnostic and became an atheist many years ago.

  i knew i was going to leave for 7 years before i did but had stayed in because i didn't want to hurt my family, it hadn't occurred to me that they might shun me.

  Welcome Gemmel

  I enjoyed reading your story, I just love it when people realise it's all crap and just walk out.

  Very sad about your family but cult's love this shunning business, keeps the drones from finding out the truth.

  I'm from Melbourne :)

  3Mozzies,

  Thank you for thinking that my life means a shit.

  Your life surly does have meaning! Don't ever think otherwise JRK. For one thing reading your story makes me hate this religion even more, now that's always a good thing in my book. The WT$ should burn in hell for what it has done to us all.

  They had me conducting a book study at age 13.

  That is just plain wrong!

  Somewhere around this time, my mentor became a pervert and tried to grope me in an unwholesome way in field service.

  I feel so angry hearing about this while knowing my JW family think that this is gods clean organization....BULLSHIT it is!
