I see myself as agnostic. Part of this is due to the fact that JW's never allowed me to consider other ideas about the creation of the universe. Now that I am in college I am taking science courses ranging from biology to geology and they all seem to have very valid argumants for evolution. Nonetheless it is very hard for me too accept that this life is it. . . I truly hope that there is a merciful God and that maybe we keep on living, but the "evidence" seems to point away from this idea.

Does God still exist for you?
by nakedmvistar ini'm quite new to this forum (only a handful of posts).
but from what i've read up to now, it seems apparent that some of you have abandoned your belief in a god.
is this because of trauma brought about by the jw religion?

A complex question who of you knows the answer?
by MARTINLEYSHON inif baptism washes away your sins, as taught by jws, what prevents a disfellowshiped person who has moved to a new area and is not known in that area in attending meetings as an interested person and getting baptised within 6 months.. has anyone ever done that?
if so can the person be disfellowshipped a second time?
what would be his status.

I've wondered about this too. My last name is different from when I got married so I think that I could possibly get away with it. . . but I don't want too.

If You Didn"t PREACH, YOU were BLOODGUILTY
by minimus inpreaching, to a witness is the most important assignment that god gives.as a matter of fact, if you don't preach you are bloodguilty before god.if you don't cover the territory properly, you are bloodguilty.
if you didn't keep proper records, you were bloodguilty.if you didn't do not-at-homes, you were bloodguilty.if you didn't return to talk to a return visit within the week, you were bloodguilty.
obviously, we could never reach all persons with the "truth".

I used to feel really guilty when I was too lazy to make return visits. It would eat at me. . . but not enough to go out regularly. . . . .

DID YOU EVER LEARN anything because you were a JW?
by minimus inwas there ever anything positive from being a witness?
could you say that because you were a witness at least......or was it all negative?
-
StinkyPantz
I think if I didn't have some of the JW values that I would've be screwing everyone in sight. I think the JW lifestyles kept me from having tons of kids.
It also gave me many friends that I never would've had.
Minimus have I told you lately how much I love you? Haha! Great question as usual.
