Do you still feel guilty going into a church for a wedding or a funeral?
Even when I was in I never felt different, I would gladly attend. So this remains the same.
Can you bring yourself to celebrate birthdays or Christmas?
I never was into these things before I became a jdumb, so still no changes there. (if someone ever does invite me to a birthday/ christmas I will gladly accept it to make them happy).
Would you hesitate to accept a blood transfusion if you needed one?
no i will accept all to save my life but will certainly make an informed decision to do this.No hesitations.
Does the indoctrination that you received still work to put a barrier between you and the rest of society in the way it was intended to when you were "in"?
No it does not coz I believe that if I live life as the jdumbs intended me to then they still have their control over me and I cant say I am totally free.
So now I re-research and do my own thinking and see how I feel about a matter before decideing. I refuse to let anyone elses be it human, bible, jdumbs n tom,dick, harry control my mind or core of me.
I begin from a blank page and gather info, fill the page and then decide. I never look into religion at all or the jdumbs.

I did an about turn, total reversal of it all. Plus now I do a lot more research.I see that there are way more choices to consider . I am surprised at myself now that I am out how different I look at things coz I have educated myself in so many ways.
I have let whoever matters to me about my blood stance, and other things that has changed with my decisions so when time comes they all know I have changed my decisions. No long pauses and musings over those.
So no jw barrier/concepts holding me down at all.

Would You Stop Buying A Product Because of Political Differences?
by minimus inwould you stop buying nike products because you didn’t like their politics?
conversely, would you give business to a company because you liked their political stand on a matter?
would you stop watching an entertainer because you disagree with their political perspectives?

In my small way I always try and support local shops in my area. I simply refuse to be lead by ads, big brand names, coerced,guided mind control, manipulations of corporations in any way. I do it my way, have always done.
If only my actions could make a huge change in the market,businesses, I would.But the reality is no , it doesnt.They are way bigger than me, I am not even small fry. So why live my life through mind control one way or the other!

If lil old me buying/not buying any product mattered or made any waves in the world; dont you think by now the world would have been so much a better place to live in than when we started??
History says it all. People come, people go...fee fi fo fum...
I do things as per my budget, not by some badass corporation views, stance etc.
If lil old me mattered to them,then their opinions might matter to me.

So far I do not see any good reason to read your book. Another perhaps cock and bull compilation of things put together into a book from the viewpoint of the author. I do not beleve in the bible so why would I want to read your book?? Nothing personal mate but I shall pass.

The Watchtower Society want basic human rights but ''somehow'' deny disfellowshipped members theirs
by RULES & REGULATIONS injehovah’s witnesses imprisoned for their faith—by location.
locations where jehovah’s witnesses are put in prison, sometimes under harsh conditions, for practicing their faith and exercising basic human rights.. .
others are imprisoned for their conscientious objection to military service.. watchtower society: please don't lecture anyone on the denial of basic human rights when you take away the rights of disfellowshipped family members associating with their family and friends!.
