DID YOU ALLOW BAD ASSOCIATIONS?
by minimus inbeing raised as a witness, i was taught to have nothing to do with worldly people.
as long as they were not dedicated, baptized worshippers of jehovah, they were considered as wicked ones that would soon be destroyed at armaggedon.
in school and later, at work, i tried to keep a safe distance from anyone not a witness.

I had to be careful of how I spoke of my interactions with kids at school. For instance, I would have the following conversation with Dad:
Professor: "Hey Dad, I was talking to a friend at school today......"
Dad: "A WHAT?"
Professor: "Oh I mean an AQUANTANCE! This guy Charlie said...."
Dad: "Does Charlie love Jehovah?"
Professor: "I dunno, I guess not...."
Dad: "Then he wouldn't make a very good friend, would he?"
Professor: "I guess you're right, Dad. I'm glad we had this talk."

How utterly sad. This individual had no encouraging experiences to share with the brothers and sisters and so decided to make up a story about someone who was blessed by Jehovah with a million dollars for having enough morals not to own a computer.
Does it surprise you? It seems to fit the mentalilty of someone who is taught to keep their eyes on the prize, the Watchtower jihad, for shunning family members, denying themselves medical treatment, throwing their youth away, etc.

Most unhypocritical religion which one?
by haujobbz inthink about it when you chose to become a jw why did you choose that belief.. was it because you witnessed there good works or there following the scriptures closely or even there so called similarity to 1st century christians.. when i think about it, i didnt really witness these things it was the books i studied which told me this because if i had really looked closely at the activities and jw roots i would of realised they werent the pure religion they claimed to be.now i think about it why didnt i take my study more serious not just reading what the jws gave me but looking to outside sources for more information, im really gutted i didnt do this now.
i mean did i look at other beliefs to see how they functioned nope i just believed the books i studied and that was it and i thought i wasnt gullible.. so now in the situation most of us are in today if you were to look at most religious christian beliefs today which would you say follows the bible closely and imitates the 1st century christians the closest,sticks to gods and christ teachings closely.
also have any of you thought about joining another faith and which one?
