  Growing up a Jehovah's Witness

  by jwfacts in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  growing up a jw makes a person unique, long after you leave.

  even though i strongly disagree with much of what i was taught, i still am tainted by my upbringing in that i think a thought and then correct myself with what i now should think (or visa versa, think something and then remember what i once would have thought).. even now that i am far removed from watchtower thinking, i still feel somewhat of an alien from those around me.

  though i am loved at work, i feel they laugh at me more than they laugh with me.. for some time now, i have been meaning to chronograph the concepts that a witness child is indocrinated with to show just how damaging an upbringing it is.

  Biting my tongue at last nights bookstudy

  by GBSJG in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so i went to last nights bookstudy which discusses 6 paragraphs of the daniel book so there was lots of room for comment.

  the study itself already was pretty frustrating it was taken from chapter 17 paragraphs 24-29 and it goes on about how the fds has to be lead by jehovah because of all the prophecies of daniel that fits them (1335 days was this convention to that etc etc).

  but the paragraphs also mention the failed prediction for 1925. here are some interresting quotes from the book: .

  Zealous JW`s having children......

  by jambon1 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  when we had our children we planned them.

  we made this known to any in the cong who asked if we 'got a surprise' when we found out we were pregnant.

  we basically said, 'no, we wanted children'.

  Article on NH JW Abuse Case--Paul Berry

  by blondie in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  in the jehovah's witness church, the elders were allowed to tell other church members because everyone in the church is considered an ordained minister.

  but they were not allowed to tell authorities outside the church, the court records said.

  i wonder if she misunderstood?.

  They're turning up the heat

  by Winston Smith :>D in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  well, after four elder meetings at 2 hours a pop, they sill want to get together with me.

  the last meeting i told them to give me scriptural backing that disproves that the 70 years ended when babylon fell as spoken of at jer 25: 10,11. i also asked for scriptures to prove why they insist on 607 rather than 587 as the fall of jerusalem.

  they said they would do that and get back to me.
