DYSFUNCTIONAL and VERY STUPID RELATIVES some R JWs
by QUEENIE ini come from a long line of such relatives and a few are jws...i hope i am making myself clear --- hanging on to such folks emotionally and mentally is a very negative endeavor...there are more positive things to do with ones time--i know we do around here...shit watching tv, coloring in my coloring book and picking my nose is a few things i can come up with as being positive -- i am glad jws have the practice of shunning the dissass.
(apostates) while i nurse my infected leg i am able to find time to engage in such activities...i value my private time so i can consentrate on things i find fun and enjoyable...what people find fun and enjoyable will vary from individual to individual...taking water pills / infection pills / seizure pills is a necessity and watch tv is a lot i enjoy doing especially the news -- locally it is showing me there ar some more dysfuntional parents / people than i am or will ever be -- down right ignorant and i have had the experience that i wonder if some even post on this forum!!!!

My family put the "D" in dysfunction. But guess who is the most dysfunctional of them all? The only sibling I have left in the org. Their marriage is failing, their finacial situation is horrible, they have cast aside the whole family, including my mother who is still in. Screwed over everyone they have come in contact with including JW bros. And then turn around and look down their nose at us! Oh, I wish I could elaborate but this stuff is going on right now and trolls are everywhere and the "big wigs" are involved with this one, the same ones who watch this site.

It is so sad that any of us were put in the position of having to lie to begin with. I would of rather faced the principal at school, get swats,or expelled or face my parents and get beat or grounded then to face the elders. I would have to say that going before them must be alot like being on trial and knowing that your fate is in their hands. They are the judge and jury whom will determine if they will hang you are not. So you lie your a** off because if you don't you just handed them the rope their going to hang you with.
I always used to think about what the JW's said about how ignorant the Catholics are for having confession because God already knows what you've done. Well, I applied that in my life as a dub. Why confess, God already knows what I did? But this made me a better person today because I lied sooooo much back then, you know one lie after another to cover all the other ones, that I try not to lie at all now. (sometimes you just have to:) And since I started this post, I must confess to all of you, I lied about everything I just wrote. Just kidding! Thanks for posting!!

Are teenagers old enought to get baptised?
by sleepy ini, like many on this board got baptised when still a teenager (17).. at the time i thought i knew what i was doing and could take full responsibility for my actions.. 10 years later i realise i knew very little back then compared to what i know now.. was i old enought to make my mind up?.
or could we always at any age ,be looking back at things we did wrong thinking if only i knew what i know now?.
actually how much responsibility can we hold over what we did as teenagers .weren't we pushed by the congregation and parents, we had little knowledge of anything else being force fed the "truth" since babies.. at such a young age aren't we much more vulnerable to brainwashing ?.

I was baptised at age 15. The pressure had been on for a long time before I "finaly" took the plunge. And it is so funny how they put down others for baptising babies, if you ask me 15 is a baby too. I could not even get my drivers license, get married, buy alcohol, vote (if we would of been allowed), get a "real" job but I COULD dedicate my life to the WTS and God and forever be held to it. To be straight forward, I had not even started my menstrual cycle when I got baptised. Talk about a baby!!!

Do you blame your parents?
by sleepy indo you blame your parents for bringing you up as witnesses?.
do you tink they sould have known better, or do you feel sorry for them?.
i used to think how lucky i was to be born into a family that had the truth.. now i wonder, how could my parents have fallen fot it?.

I don't blame my parents but after some very serious events with my family as of late with the org. my mother apologized to us for raising us this way. She is still in.

Deleted Because Boss is DF JW
by VitoJW ini am new here.
tho i have lurked, this is my first real post.. i was doing "personal research" for the last 5 years, tho was helped along recently when i was deleted as an elder because i work for a company owned by a disassociated jw.
there is no real definitive info in print, other than the infamous 9/15/81 wt, but the co held a mini-crusade and got me axed.. nothing personal,.... just business.

Well, I know someone who had drifted away and 2 years after not attending any meetings or hanging with any JW's was DF for renting an apartment with a DA person. They actually "hunted" this person down, drug them in and even after they said they had just purchased a house and would be moving in one month they were DF anyhow!!

What I used to tell my family is that it was never really in my heart and would they rather I be a hypocrite and go just because that is what they want? Also I reminded them that they chose this for me, I was raised in it so it was not my decision.

ANOINTED Jehovah Witness has no doubt,
by lotus inhello, i am new to this website, but have to be straightforward and say that i do not agree with most subjects and contents.
i am an active jehovah witness, but i am very lonely so i am looking for others with the "hope" or to speak to those that know someone that does.
it has been a long , hard road for me.
