How Important is the Past?
by hurt ini am quite sad and confused...
how important is it to be truthful and completely truthful about ones past in a relationship?
is it unusual for one to be severely hurt after discovering that a mate has not said everything about a past relationship even thouhg they calim to have?

Valis, I'm NOT a wimp (Tattoo)
by LB inyep i took lots of heat from valis for worrying about my pain threshold but i went down today during meeting time and got my first tat.
it's a hawaiian tribal turtle.
it wasn't painful at all, maybe because of the location but it did burn a bit.

ARE JW'S MORE HONEST THAN OTHERS?
by minimus inone thing that the witnesses promote is how they are different from the rest of the world.
in your personal experience , did you find that you could trust a witness more than you could a non-jw?

The religion they believe in is based on lies and hypocrisy. To continue to believe in that, they must lie to themselves. Not a very honest foundation from which to draw.

Wow, it's amazing how some Bear fans will get their bloomers all in a bundle with one good season. Can they maintain? We shall see.

MOST PEOPLE NEVER REALLY CHANGE
by minimus inmost people never really change!
our personalities, whether we are active witnesses or are inactive ones, apostates or almost apostates, are the same.
if we tend to rant here on this board, the probability is we were ranters elsewhere.

I do believe that people change. Our belief systems shape who we are and then how we behave in order to sustain those belief systems. Every time there is a change in our belief systems there is also a change in us - good bad or indifferent depending on the belief all that is supporting.
If you look at a person who suffers from poor self-esteem, they will behave in a certain way out of that lack of self esteem. Underneath all of that is a belief system which tells that person perhaps that they are unworthy or unlovable or whatever might be there inside them. This belief may have been established throughout their years by the words and deeds of others and later reiterated by messages they learned to send to themselves about their own worth. This is what they believe. And out of that belief they may behave critically of themselves and others. They may be angry or depressed etc. And all of this reinforces the original belief system underneath it.
If this person changed their belief system about their own self-worth through whatever means they might need to; there is a new one in it's place and a new set of behaviors to support that new belief. Instead of playing the old tape to themselves over and over again that they are unworthy, they write over that tape and play a new, more positive one. And when their belief system changes- their behavior, words and their whole physiology changes with it. They may be less critical, more open, more confident, less depressed etc. They may even walk with a more confident gait. And the more their behavior changes the more the new belief is reinforced. And there you have change.
The type of change I've described is for the positive. It can also be for the negative. Think about the changes a person could go through beginning to study the JW faith. This may be a major belief change for them and the entire system is designed to provide constant reinforcement of that belief- and to keep you there. In this case it's fear and guilt and a host of other very negative reinforcements. Many folks have changed for the worse with this indoctrination.
People can change and they do. "As a man thinketh in his heart, so he becomes"
My 135 cents
