Really don't feel like a JW anymore
by snare&racket init has been a good 8 years away from my area, a good 10 years + since i was regularly at meetings.

i now feel no connection to the belief system beyond memories.

It has been a good 8 years away from my area, a good 10 years + since I was regularly at meetings. A good 12 years since I was hesitantly active.
It is a slow process but it does happen. I now feel no connection to the belief system beyond memories.
Due to my job I occasionally interact with JW's , perhaps once a month. I never mention that I once printed the magazines they hold with them.
It feels good, I feel normal.
Part of me didn't want to mention this because of the time involved, yes it has taken >10 years BUT it is possible to untangle the JW nonsense indoctrinated from childhood on.
For many years, it felt like I would always have deep resentment, a constant anguish and anger inside for stolen years (25) a stolen youth, all the lies, all the deceit etc etc.
Now I am just greatful to have got out and away...... I do not miss a thing and despite this being a shock to me, to say..... I also no longer miss anyone.
i don't miss the armageddon hunger.
i don't miss the ignorance.
i don't miss the internal policing,
i don't miss the constant judging.
i don't miss the constant self denial.
i don't miss the though control.
i don't mis the competitiveness.
i don't miss the materialism.
i don't miss the endemic alcoholism.
i don't miss the casual domestic violence,
i don't miss the coveting for mass genocide in exchange of a cabin built on someone else's land, surrounded by pandas.
All of the above does not make a good human being. the longer I am away from such people, when I do meet up with them now, I realise how they are NOT good members of society. They are not healthy families. It is not a peaceful, pleasant religion at all.
A financial institution, ran like a Orwellian slave camp, in the guise of a religion..... What's to miss?

Je Suis Charlie
by Slidin Fast inthis incident in paris makes me feel absolutely furious.
yes i feel desperately sorry for the victims and their families no one should have to deal with that.
the thing that makes me feel absolutely incandescent though is the attack on freedom of speech and expression.

There is nothing wrong with mocking ideas, opinion or belief.
People have a right to beliefs, ideas and opinions.
People DO NOT have a right to not be offended.

This event will change Europe. I don't mean a revolution or acute swing, but in the subconscious of many I think today they said "enough."
I don't think this will end well, the rise of the right may just take place.

JW's love to talk themselves into believing stupidity
by Sour Grapes inwell today the watchtower conductor makes the statement that "the tv.jw.org web site is proof that we have jehovah's blessing because such an endeavor would have been impossible without his help".
of course that causes all of the bobbing heads in full agreement.
i wonder what god blessed cbs, abc, and nbc to get up and going and offer their programming?.

It's 2014. You can set up an online tv channel in the time it takes to have a poop. Then you just need monies for equipment. Is that the miracle, the amount of monie$ they have?....... cos the Catholic$ are winning that one!

You won't be a different person, but you will be a person who makes a difference,
As a nurse you make a huge difference too, so ask yourself what the motivations for becoming a doctor are. The degree is too hard to get through unless you have a real passion for medicine or you are a rare natural academic.
I would 100% recommend anyone becoming a doctor, but say goodbye to the next 15 years and be sure to realise it is not just a job, it is all consuming.
