  hello, i want to discuss with my mother about jws saying we only use a small percentage, and that we will use the entire brain when we become perfect in the paradise.

  2. experiences

  i was born into a family already some generations into jehovah's organization.

  from the time i was four years old i can remember my birthday being no more significant than me turning four years old.

  later i saw the significanse of it when my classmates had their birthdays, but i knew it was wrong.

  It makes me sad.

  2. experiences

  recently, when saying goodbye to my grandmother, who i only see a few times a year, she started tearing and said something that made me very sad.

  she said she had to tell me that the door to jehovah's kingdom is closing at any moment now, and that if i didn't do anything now, it would be to late.

  to her, she is facing an eternity without her grandchildren and it makes her very sad.

  How did you visualize Jehovah when you were young?

  2. experiences

  i was born as a third generation (perhaps even fourth gen. but my great great grandfather never got baptized) jw.

  i remember that when i was young, perhaps about five years old, i would think about jehovah as this big black ghost with yellow eyes.

  to me he was quite frightening, and i was constantly catious not to piss him off.
