  my name is abigail

  by wakeupbuttercup in

  2. friends

  long time lurker here.

  i don't want hate in our hearts - jw are wrong oh so wrong - and i want to blame this religion for making me cold and distant to the world.

  but i believe everything is meant to be, we all have purpose in this world.

  Welcome Abigail, sounds like you are in control and taking charge of your life. Well done, liberating isn't it :)

  I was visited by them a couple of years ago before I DA'd. I told them I thought it was ridiculous and petty and I would not tell them if I had a tree in my own house or not. They said 'it has been reported...' I asked who reported it and they said they did not know, so I said if they were not going to tell me then I was not going to tell them! It became extremely silly.

  An interesting comment given by an older brother during the prayer yesterday.

  i have been a regular visitor to this site for several years now.

  i never really felt the need to set up an account and post...until now.

  at the close of yesterdays meeting, an older brother gave the prayer.

  Welcome, what a sad story. And I bet some younger elder told him after you shouldn't ask Jehovah that in a public prayer.

  i know that logging in has been a problem for some.

  i hardly post any more.

  i figured there would be more activity than this.

  My PCs, phone and tablet all keep me logged in which is great for me! Speed doesn't seem to be an issue either for me. I've noticed my post count has gone down too, and to answer Black Sheep, I think Simon had simply asked if the flag was a good idea, many said no.

  New forum: one month progress report

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  well, we survived the first month at least!

  yes, the new forum is now 1 month old.. of course there have been some issues and i'm grateful that people have been patient while i worked on them.

  a big thank-you to everyone who's been patient, have provided useful feedback or just been willing to adapt to something new during the transition.. i've also made some improvements along the way and am fairly happy with how things are from a basic functionality and performance perspective so it's time to start looking at some of the new features i've been planning.

  Thank you Simon, I'm used to it already and much better to use on my phone. Island Man, that'll only appear when you hover over the picture/avatar.

  they broke more commandments that most.

  Really don't feel like a JW anymore

  by snare&racket in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it has been a good 8 years away from my area, a good 10 years + since i was regularly at meetings.

  a good 12 years since i was hesitantly active.. it is a slow process but it does happen.

  i now feel no connection to the belief system beyond memories.

  Quite interesting turning the tables like that, I'm not sure I could go into a hall now without squirming and getting really angry at what was being said.

  Thought I would introduce myself

  by WateredDown in

  2. friends

  i have read the site with great interest over the last few weeks.

  some interesting stuff thats for sure.. i have left the jehovah's witnesses (was almost going to say the 'truth') for some time now.

  i was one of the lucky ones that was baptised then faded, no humiliating disfellowshipping but nonetheless was very hard to get myself out.
