  Yeah Yeah I'm back

  i couldn't stay away.

  i love you guys.. abaddon's and ldh's recent posts hit close enough to home that i decided to post again.. i think the selected memory and split personalities go hand in hand.. the selected memory helps keep the cult personality happy and gleaming no matter what damage the suppression does to the real human or the real human's family and friends.. a couple of years ago i was talking about my childhood with my parents and they both acted stunned when i said i was still angry with them because they didn't want me to go to college (i gave up several scholarship offers, etc.

  to become a pioneer and eventually go to bethel).

  Done out of love...

  by Introspection in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i wanted to say a few words about the whole theist vs. atheist kind of arguments here, and suggest another way of looking at it which may put things into perspective.. i think as ex-jws none of us want to see others fall into that same trap again, and depending on our perspective we'd want others to have the benefit of our experience.

  honestly, i don't know if i fit under either category, but i do believe in "something beyond.

  " all the same, i think often my atheist brothers (which is not to exclude those who are theists) and sisters say the things they do out of love.

  Sisters with unbelieving Mates

  by slipnslidemaster in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i asked this in one of the threads ( http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.asp?id=5335) but i would like to explore it further.. am i the only one to think this or did it seem like the sisters with unbelieving mates and children seemed to be "tolerated" or marginalized?

  they never seemed to be "full" witnesses to anybody in the congregation?.

  my name is slipnslideius masterus: commander of the armies of the north, general of the felix legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, marcus aurelius...

  Need to vent... advice is welcome

  by SlayerLayer in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i was 13, all of the other kids in my congregation were taking home school, getting them out of the "bad association" in public school.

  they talked me into it too.. of course, at 13 trying to get me to actually do the schooling was a feat that no one could master.. i worked for a brother in the cong.

  full time, and never finished the schooling.. so...flash forward.
