  i have read extensively about the origins of birthdays, and i still don't get it.

  but it's not what it means today.. even wedding veils were used to ward off the "evil eye".

  Even wedding veils were used to ward off the "evil eye". But it's not what it means today. And that's okay? Dont get it. Oh, and my birthday is coming up, but I'm still pimo, so it's not gonna get much recognition (obviously). I don't want to reveal my age or the date, because of my identity, but, hey feel free to wish me.

  The whole thing pisses me off, because they are considered idolatry. You're not idolizing one person. Alot of people are celebrating their bday, so you're basically idolizing everybody on the planet. Okay, that's kind of dumb.

  I'm sure there's non-dubs that dont even care to celebrate their bday. They probably dont want to be reminded about getting old. 😂

  The typical martyrdom of jws

  by nowawake14 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in ww2, when the jws were being persecuted, i think there was something about the nazis letting jws resign from their religion so they could be released from prison.

  not sure how that worked.. honestly, i would so resign right now and get the hell out of prison.

  but no, they're so faithful and brainwashed they're going to suffer for it.. who has time to be a martyr anyways?

  Jws get pretty invasive over your love life. I'm not going to deal with it, so It may be best for me to not pick a jw. I can't stand the scrutiny.

  I've never actually been with anybody before, so that's a plus. Now I can dodge a bullet, and stay away from a scrutinized jw love life and be normal.

  I dont want to date a person with someone breathing down my neck. How the hell am I supposed to get to know him at all? I am a grown woman and I can handle it.

  Just depending on the person, I always thought some worldly guys were waaaayyy sexier and had a normal personality. alot of jw guys I know are psychos. Im not joking. Seriously.

  And guess what, everybody. I'm a young adult and woke up. So I have all the time ahead of me to pick and choose my bloke! 😁

  Got any stories to share of psycho jw men/women you were with?

  Maybe Witnesses are the "world"

  i just realized that maybe witnesses are the world, because of all the hypocrisy ive seen with my own eyes.

  alot of the jw kids (not all) ive been around acted "worldier" than the average person.

  it sucked.
