My first own thread on here. Woken up and still in :(

i have been around in this forum a lot but haven't written much yet.. also i had a more or less rude awakening when i realized that the religion i grew up with, the religion i sacrificed a lot for and considered to be the 'truth' is nothing but mere bs.

it's quite a brick to digest.. my parents both are jws, elder and pioneer.

very good people but also very brainwashed.

Welcome aboard!

i went to see my good friend in a nursing home[he had been there about 3 weeks] and when i walked into his room his eyes were open and he had his glasses on.

he didn't answer so i shook his leg.

he didn't respond.

Kool Jo

My condolences...I know you're going thru a tough time, but hang in there!

hello everyone just made an account here.

basic history: early 20s, former bethelite, ms, and pioneer, now college student (hell yeah, but finding it tough!

), but still stuck with believing parents.

Welcome to the forum...glad you're advancing your education and also that you're awaken to the truth about the WTBS!

good day folks...for some time now, i've been trying to be deleted as an ms as this will even make my fade much easier...the body of elders in my "home" congregation, where i was "appointed" is asking for a letter stating that i won't be able to live to up to the responsibilties of being an ms and would therefore like to be removed...i'm not the best at writing and asking for some help w/o making it seem that i'm stepping down for "apostate" reasons.... .

i can't wait to send this letter to them on sunday and then perhaps next week the announcement is made!.

Thank you all for your responses....as suggested, I'm gonna keep it simple and to the point...I won't be physically meeting with the elders since I don't live in that city anymore...so they asked for a letter.

They wanted to send my publisher card/info to the KH where I moved to so I can continue serving as an MS....I told then no, because my job has me moving every few months...

Will keep ya'll posted on what happens...I'm sending off the letter tomorrow.

Peace
