I looks at the bible like I look at Plato or other Greek writings, Just because Troy may have existed but that does not mean Medusa turned people to stone.

On leaving JW's and hating religion...
by Jehalapeno init's been nearly 4 years now since i completely woke up to the watchtower lies.. thinking back on my jw life, during the time i believed, the organization truly did teach us to hate all beliefs that were contrary to the watchtower's.. i hated "false" religion.. so, when i finally woke up and applied critical thinking to my beliefs, i just went on hating religion in general...only this time i added jw's to that list.. a few months of waking up, i decided to base my beliefs on evidence.
i didn't want to have a set of beliefs unless there was some logic or evidence behind it.
so, now i consider myself an atheist.. and i kept on hating religion.. within the last six months or so, something has changed.

I hate all religion. But I can tolerate some. I can not tolerate Islam, JWs. Mormons, Scientoligists, Pentecostals, southern Baptists or any radical groups.

I bought the DVD. I won't give any spoilers but it ends like one of those horror movies where Michael Myers is still there.

I am not sure I believe that someone who is so effeminate is not really gay even if they don't know it them-self. I have a cousin, who is married and not a JW. His dad is an non practicing believer but he has never had any real contact with the cult. This guy is so damn effeminate it screams gay. He is more like a woman than some women. He and his wife bought an old house, his dad is a carpenter by trade. His dad would complain that his son would sit and watch him do the work as he had no interest in it, He did get into the flower planting and I am not joking. I would drive to work and he would be standing outside looking at his flowers. some don't know they are gay.

WOW great stories. Now i know I was not the only one. Some of your stories made me remember one. When I was young, about 9 there was a Jewish by race, he is long gone so his name is not an issue, Weinstein. All I remember about where he came from is that he lived in the bottom of the kingdom hall in the basement. I would talk to him and my cousins who were good friends of mine had an aunt who he married. I remember my mother saying that guy is homosexual. Gay was still happy back then. Late 60s. Several JW women would get on my mother for this saying she was so wrong. Well they had several kids, and named them stupid names like Brandy and other liquor names for the wine pun. Well they moved to Florida back in the late 70s. We were told he ended up running off and leaving his wife with a bible study male. I asked my mother now I am a bit older. How did you know he was Homosexual. She said he had no real interest in girls. You could just tell he loved talking to the other guys and was so effeminate.

I know of three situations I saw myself. The first one was when I lived in Arcadia. All the people I use names on are dead and gone so no probs. If I use a he she its because they are still alive.
When I lived in Arcadia in the mid 80s, Florida I worked as a floor-covering installer. I worked before staring my own store for an Elder and his wife. We would get a lot of work from the hall brothers and sisters. There was one couple of older Sisters who lived together about 4 homes down from me in a small travel trailer that had additions on it. Typical Florida old home. They wanted new vinyl in the kitchen. I had to move things out of the way so there was a small bedroom about 8x9 and the living room was a stick built addition. I noticed when putting things out of the way in the bedroom that there was one bed a queen. So they slept together. Alice and pat were in their 60s and mid 50s respectively. I was ignorant of gays and lesbians. I mean we all called each other gay or homo back in school but we did not know any. But I could tell pat was strange. She wore the typical short mans hair cut, nurse shoes and today your gaydar would go off if you saw her.
My grandfather was an elder and it just seemed strange to me. We had just had a study that part was on how things looked and if you went to a sisters home and you and her were alone you could be DFed because of how it looked. I asked but what about Pat and Alice? That does not look good. He get very upset and yelled that is just peoples dirty mind. Pats Aunt is a lesbian and she has been spreading these lies. WHOA so this was no just me there have been others. I talked to a friend of mind who was in the hall and asked what he thought he just said, Ya I have heard that before. Again others knew something. As I have grown older I see that its even more that I was correct. Now Pat and Alice are dead and gone. but it was something going on.
The second one was a guy who was so damn effeminate. He is still alive and about 40 married and two kids so no name. He lived in North Michigan and would come to the hall and would hang out with the girls and sit with legs crossed like a woman with a dress on. He would knit and wear shawls and act like a woman. Most of the brothers would keep away from him because they would say he is gay among our self when the guys were talking.
The third one I saw was my sister in laws brother in law. He went to Bethel and was there for a couple of years. He was one of those guys who had an avg. Intelligence but though he was While E. Coyote super genius. He had not job when he left Bethel and my father in law hired him to work with him in construction and gave him a room in his house. My father in law the one I had posted about that now has poor health and no money because of quitting GM back in the pre 75 era because of the end. So this kid would talk about Bethel and I would ask questions. He seemed to have boy crushes on different brothers in the hall. It was strange but my gaydar went off big when he said he was asked to leave Bethel. I really started to ask questions. Turns out he would not tell me all of the details but said that he and the other brother he was bunked with was caught in what looked like a bad situation and it was alleged he was gay. He said it was nothing just looked funny so they asked him to leave. I knew then where there is this much smoke there is fire.
