  WHILE I WAS PRAYING . . .

  one night a long long time ago .

  .. i distinctly remember lying in my bed staring at the shadows on the ceiling and saying my prayers to jehovah while becoming annoyed with myself at how rote and over familiar my thoughts had become.. it just didn't feel authentic.

  i steeled myself to the task and began again, apologizing for the insincerity!.

  Terry, I love your stories. I believe you and I are in the same generation (no overlap) and I can relate to many events and the way JWs acted in the 60's and 70's. It is strange how simple things suddenly make you see the light. One Sunday during the WT study I was sitting next to my grand daughter who at that time must have been around 5. Prompted by her mother she wanted to comment. She was asking me to find her an answer. So I whispered in her ear a one word answer and as she said her comment loudly I came to realize that the only difference between this 5 year old child and me is that her answer was whispered in her ear while I read mine in the paragraph. No need to think or meditate. All I needed was to repeat what is written. I came to the realization that I was not there to learn but to be indoctrinated. It took me a little longer to leave but that was a turning point in my escape from the cult.

  I am aware of a case where the girl was reproved in her congregation and the guy who denied having sex with her was married to his fiancee in his congregation just a few weeks later.

  according to jwism, god didn't cause suffering, he just allowed it.

  wow, that's really, really, dumb.

  to help humans out, jeehoobidoob provided the ransom.

  Jehovah was so mad Adam and Eve sinned, it took him a few millenia to figure out how to get a perfect cake out of a dented mold.

  it seems that the bounty expected from the brooklyn hq sale may not be as bountiful as thought.

  how is that going to affect their shaky finances?.

  I guess they want to get the most out of the sale by handling the transactions in house. No other corporation could have made more profits from the sales of these buildings because the WT not only purchased them at a low price, but also because they renovated and maintained them with donated money and free labour.

  I have accepted the fact that I will grow old and die...anything else such as life after death or even the existence of god is pure speculation. Sadly I put faith for much too long in such beliefs which I now see a a figment of men's imagination and superstitions.

  If I didn't agree with covering my head I just wouldn't participate. Sadly immigrants from countries like Iran abuse our laws that protect our freedom to import the very tyranny and culture of submission they are trying to escape...
