Still having trouble functioning outside of the org. People see me as some type of hermit I guess. It takes time, I've been out since 2002 and when through alot of pain, I did loose alot of friends in the 10 years that I was a witness. I only started calling back my old friends recently, it takes alot of time to get out of Prozac paradise.

Angry Witnesses
by Moomin ineverytime i look at videos talking/warning about jehovah's witness on youtube, i am always so shocked at the venemous replies from the dubs.
they say things like "i can't wait to see your face when you realise we're right when armageddon comes" and "i can't wait for the day of jehovah when you apostate scumbags get obliterated".
it's shocking.

Quote: My wife is an angry witness!! Anytime I have attempted to show her from the pages of the wt magazine, some of the errors and contradictions of the society...she looses it. I recognize the fact that when witnesses react this way it is out of fear. They cannot even begin to grasp the possibility that the wts is wrong. While the org claims that witnesses are "reasonable" people and that witnesses "reason" from the bible with others....that has not been my experience with them. ec Same here I get the same nonsense each time I mention their flaws, errors and any other bullshit that I point out. We can't say their wrong but they can say everyone else is...

NOT REALLY SURPRISED!
by Dansk inwell, it had to happen one day - only claire and i thought we'd be somewhat older and karl would have finished his university course.
karl telephoned earlier this week to let us know we're to become grandparents!
as karl is only 21 and has just started university i felt like reading the riot act - but what's the point!

Going "Door to Door"..........
by whyamihere inwhen i was a teen going door to door, my "territory" was always the college area.
my choosing because i loved going back to the places i was the night before.
think of it - the last time they seen me i was either doing a beer bong or teaching people to do a beer shot gun.

In rural areas, do one door before the service meeting to count time then drive at the other end of the territiory to count easy time.

What's The Dumbest JW Belief?
by minimus ini have to think believing in the blood doctrine has to be the dumbest, especially because accepting the watchtower view can kill you.

That they are the only religion that hold the truth, and another one which bugs me is that only they will survive armagedon, yes all other good people, kids, animals etc will die...
