before i decided to post my thread i went through this most of this site and tried to see everyone elses experiences and childhoods, unlike some ppl i never told my friends i was a jw because i just knew that would make me uncool to everyone and i wasnt brainwashed like the rest of the jw's i saw and really followed there life by the jw principles.

its sad how some parents have there kids so brainwashed by this stuff its so pathetic i feel sad for some of them, they probably have no friends in school.

growing up in a jw household i always thought alot of there rules are intense and dont allow humans to have any fun i mean come on i can't play pokemon?

Thanks for all the welcoming my bad for all the mispunctations. I dont hate the JW but its just something that i could never fully be or commit to. If you want to commit to it fully you might aswell say "goodbye to life". But like "Anony Mous" siad the jw educaiton was good for keeping you out of trouble and building good morals in life but that can also come from good parenting. P.s i dont have unprotected sex lol and i think either from my experience of being a jw i just dont asociate myself with bad ppl in general or bad women. I kind of have the ability to see through certain people, some people you can really see what there about before you even meet them based off appearance.

Growing up in a jw household i always thought alot of there rules are intense and dont allow humans to have any fun i mean come on i can't play pokemon? I remember my parents took my Harry potter book away when i was about 8? i was so in to that book too all because they say it has witchcraft but its just a book lord how mercy lol. I had this other jw friend but his parents wont like mines i remeber he had shooting games over his house but my parents wouldnt let me have them so when i turned 17 i had to sneak buy those M rated shooters. I think everybody ca agree, halo, cod, GTA those are some fun games, yeah your killing people but its not like im getting bad thoughts in FUN! its competitive its a video game, yes i understand jw's dont like violence etc but gosh lighten up i honestly can careless there messin up childrens childhood. You mean to tell me you want miss out on all this fun in this current world to have allengely "Everlasting life" in a new world? GTFO, everyday they say the same old thing "this is the end of times","this is the last days" SMFH! yeah ok and when WWI, WWII, and segregation, & the Holocaust arent worst then what goes on today? I wasnt alive during those times but based off what i studied through school and etc those times are worst then what goes on today, facts can back this up because it was more killing and stuff going on back then, than today, im pretty sure those same slaves were saying the same thing were saying today. So to think im a be some dude who never has fun, never party, never drink(i dont drink now im underage i respect the law), never sleep with all the fine women(lol) then you must be crazy lol. I respect the jw religion to a certain exinct alot of there rules are good intentions, there good people, there probably some of the best ppl on earth honestly(or am i saying that because of what the jw taught me), you dont hear about them shooting up ppl or nothing and if they did they probably wont a real jw in the first place. i disagree with the blood transfusions, there entertainment morals(even though i know most of them will watch a movie with guns in it) i dont think no jw is perfect they all bend the rules in some way except the fully brainwashed ones you cant help, they'll forever be sick & fooled. Jesus or whoever may not have been born on xmas but i dont totally hate the day since i was born into the jw i've been programmed not to celebrate it and hate it. I think its kinda sad how i could never experience it fully when i was a kid but hey its w/e im not real upset over it, i honestly think its a nice time of the year, everybodys happy, shopping, stuff is on sale, decorations are pretty and i always loved xmas songs there decent, but i cant imagine puttin up the decorations in my house or a tree maybe because i was a jw idk... but if i have kids in the future id most likely give them presents because i want to see the there faces light up. I really don't believe nobody was born on xmas because i've became alittle agnostic/atheist just by reading about religion as a whole and how it brainwashes ppl in general not just jw. Also the whole "prayer" thing makes no sense, you mean to tell me ppl are in the positions they are in today because of prayer? And i hate when something good happens to me and somebody wants to say "jehovah" did that when clearly i did it myself i dont need somebody else thats not there to take my credit, i believe you have 100% of where you want your life to go but you can depend on prayer if you want if it builds your "hope" up. Also, growing up in a jw household my ppl didnt want me to go to NY for college because they felt it was to "worldly" and its alot of stuff up there, honestly i do want to go there to party, partying =fun i dont know why jw hold themselves back so much. I'm not worldly at all because like i siad i grew up a jw so once your under that type of control its hard to do bad, all my friends are not jw, maybe 2or3 are but i dont really talk to them, really i never triend talking to alot of jw kids because there just not cool people and at the congregation i noticed its mostly adults not kids. Theres alot of kids out there who arent jw and there good people. I dont smoke or none of my close friends do either all i wanted to do is have fun, jw messed up alot of that but not no more since im older, if i wasnt a jw at the time i probably could of loss my virginity at 14 instead of 18(im 19) feel bad for the rest of the jw's they'll forever have a small circle and pathetic life
