Something my father has occasionally stated is that some JW parents raise their children to hate Jehovah.
Man, they flip flop so much on this thing. Okay, Miz, let's say for a second that your old man is right. Well, what about parents who did everything possible to keep their kids in this religion and they still wound up leaving? Or what about parents who did NOTHING to encourage their kids in ANYTHING and their kids ended up being COs and all? It's all a crapshoot.
I know that I don't want my kids getting baptized (preferrably at all) but at least not until they can make their own decisions as ADULTS. I wouldn't let my kids get baptized at 12, then they might do something that comes naturally a few years later and end up not being able to talk to their own father.
I think I can speak for any born in JW man that all that indoctrination about Jehovah, moral cleanliness, Joseph running away from Potipher's wife, blah blah blah GOES RIGHT OUT THE FACKING WINDOW WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF PARKED IN THE WOODS IN THE BACKSEAT OF YOUR MERCURY WITH A VERY AFFECTIONATE AND VERY UNDRESSED BRUNETTE.
fellas, am I right or am I right?
Ladies, you have powerful assets that all the religious values in the world are powerless against.
