  An exjw's concerns and questions.

  2. friends

  so i have been thinking and wondering, as exwitnesses how does this whole possibilty of war scare you.?.

  we were taught for so long that things like this lead to the gt.

  i thnk being a witness for so long makes this more scary then it really is.. i my self will probably go hide the day the world cries peace and security.. and is that something that my happen if they get all of the terriost?

  Why did you get baptized?

  by NoLongerAjw in

  2. friends

  was it for love of the kingdom hall and jehovah?

  pressure .. felt like you had to?

  for me it was because all my friends my age had gotten baptized.. and it was left up to me to do it too.. to fit in i guess.

  Which meeting was the hardest to attend for you ?

  by NoLongerAjw in

  for me i think it was the sunday meeting.. just wanting to stay home and sleep in.. but i think the watchtower study was the hardest to sit threw... you had to have it studied before hand.. and highlighted.. then sit there and listen to it all over again..

  Just a female thing?

  by anglise in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  since drifting from the org over the last year or so i have been slowly updating my clothes.

  i thought maybe it was just me who had been dressing like a middle aged matron since i was 23 but whilst talking to a young xsister recently i learnt that she too has thrown out most of the clothes she used to wear whilst a dub.. has anyone else found themselves doing this, and is it just a female thing?

  Question #3 "What will you say?"

  all irregular and inactive publishers will be pleased with the heartwarming news that april will see a special campaign by the elders to encourage you.

  yes, don't faint, it must be true because the april kingdom ministry says so.

  in fact, so strong is the forecasted encouragement, that it states on paragraph 25 of the insert article:.

  wow, thank you all so much for the welcome.. .

  i will tell you a little about myself and my past.. as much as i can for now anyway.. one of the most scarey parts of joining a group is i am afraid to put my name on here.. will that mean i will get a visit from the elders if i do?

  i think they put the fear in me :).. .

  hi, i just found this board yesterday.. i have a question or two.. for one i am sorry if this is not where i should post this.. if it is not please direct me where to go .. 1st question... is this for current witnesses or ex witnesses?

  i havent been to the kingdom hall for almost 2 years.. i was directed here by someone who said it was for ex witnesses.. but the front page looks like it is for witnesses to have bible studies.. and such.. which is not what i am looking for i did that for 14 years.. till i got married had 2 kids and finally got a life now at the age of 24.

  2nd... can you tell me which board on here a newbie like me can post their experinces and such.

  by Latte in

  1. social
  2. family

  personally, it upsets me very much.

  or are there any other parents that found better, alternative ways of getting young children 'trained'?.

  i am not anti -smacking by the way,(except at the kh) but it is always the very last resort.. latte
