  love this verse:

  I wrestled long with my youth
  We tried so hard to live in the truth
  But do not tell me all is fine
  When I lose my head, I lose my spine

  by confusedandalone in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  this morning i get a frantic call from my sister (who has been baptized 1 year and one month and never attends meetings anymore).

  in tears she tells me that this morning my father picked her up in the car and told her that i was am apostate.

  that i no longer loved jehovah and that i was going to be disfellowshipped.

  So sorry your going through this! I know exactly how your feeling, my sister and her elder husband are telling everyone I know that we have become apostates and don't love Jehovah anymore, they actually took an opportunity to tell people at a funeral. I have even had people come to my door crying to ask if it is true!

  Its sad to see our own family become like an enemy.

  Be strong nobody but you has the power over your life , the elders and the watchtower can eat our dirt!!!!

  my first gun.

  i realize that not all jws avoid guns.

  if you live where they hunt for food, it was ok to have guns as a jw.

  Personality types and religious adherence

  by EdenOne in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was going through the personality types of the briggs-myers test (take the free test here) and noticed how some types are naturally inclined to follow rules and expect order, while others are inclined towards feelings and emotional appeals, other are naturally inclined to help out others ... what do you think?

  are there certain basic personality types that pre-dispose the individual to adhere to a certain type of religion ?.

  I am a INTJ!! I GUESS IM A SUPER RARE female LOL

  The INTJ personality type is one of the rarest and most interesting types - comprising only about 2% of the U.S. population (INTJ females are especially rare - just 0.8)

  -Unsurprisingly, this personality type can be labelled as the most independent of all types. we are best at independent thinking.

  no wonder I left watchtower

  abiblestudent-Thank you for helping, I did go on Jw.org but couldnt find what i was looking for. the magazine came out maybe in 2010 or so. Im hoping to find something that gives the right accurate information on the history , especially that Raymundus Martini was the one to make up the name.

  Comatose- even though she wants the "new light" stuff which dose not make sense, I'm still going to send her what I have. You can deny what they wrote!!

  Hi everyone, I was hoping someone could help me with this!

  Yesterday my husband talk to his jw sister (they haven't talked in years) she found out by her other brothers that we no longer go to meeting . She grew up as a Jw then left and married a "wordly person"got divorced and recently started going to the meetings. so yesterday talking with my hubby she was very interested in what he was saying about the JW's, she couldn't deny what he was telling her!!

  So here's the thing, she wants me to email her about the origins of the name 'Jehovah" But she only wants watchtower publications and nothing from "old" literature since it could be "Old light". I have older watchtowers but nothing more resent. My husband remembers reading a watchtower or awake that came out 3 or 4 years ago that said that the Tetragrammaton was made with adding adonai and created in the 1200 and so on...I really want to take advantage of her asking for information !! Thanks
