  once when i was profoundly sad for too many days, my brother in law sent us a mix tape.

  he named each song after a person in our family.

  this is the one he named heather.

  ARE YOU AN ANGRY and BITTER APOSTATE?

  by Hummingbird001 in

  i have noticed that there are different reactions to learning the "truth about the truth".

  some become quite bitter and angry and become very activist.

  others seem to just move on quite easily.. .

  i feel irritated with the decisions i made in life based on the belief that the generation that saw the events of 1914 would also see the end.

  i've been here forever.... this site still gives us some of the most up to date info about jws .

  it keeps evolving.

  sometimes it is the place to be and i think that's especially true for newbies.

  16 he went to nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom.

  i read somewhere that lightning strikes the earth so many times a second. some times this causes forest fires and loss of life. animals die.

  i also saw a programme about elephants and how the young miss their mothers when she is killed. so maybe God as a loving creator needs to adjust a few things.

  A new heavens and a new earth maybe.

  What Drew You To The Witnesses?

  i did believe for the first 30 years of my life that they had been picked by jehovah god to dispense the truth as best as imperfect humans could.

  then, everything became questionable.

  i had read anti jw books in the past but franz's books really got to me but not immediately.

  although i was raised as a witness and always felt i would never have joined if my parents hadn't. ( i felt lucky they had) when i was baptised it was because i wanted too and not because of my parents. i was about 13. i like God

  joining the theocratic ministry school was different that was my father.i would have been quite happy to be nothing at the hall no answering no carrying the microphone no demostrations no reading the watchtower no prayers no leading the field service arrangement no opening the service meeting. absolutely nothing. just come in sit there and leave.

  i pioneered and some still remember it. lol.
