  Is Grandma evil

  by moley in

  2. experiences

  bumped into an old acquaintance the other day, one of those who used to cross the road when they see me.

  this time he was all smiles and even shook my hand.

  to cut a long story short went for a pint and a chat and he apologised for his previous behaviour and he told me he is in the process of fading and this suprised me because he used to be a super pious dub.. he said the thing that made him start to think was when his 4yr old daughter asked him if her grandma was evil and he said of course not, her reply was why is jehovah going to kill her.

That statement opened his eyes and he started to look deeper at TTATT. His wife was pleased as she was only going along for the family. He said he was worried about what might happen when he finally makes the leap but said he'll deal with that when it happens. I trold him to take a look at this sight and read some of the experinces on here.

  Really enjoyed the CONvention....why?

  by punkofnice in

  i remember when i was a mind cleansed(tm) jw i would listen to the talks when i wasn't napping.. on the long tiring drive home i'd say how i ''enjoyed(tm)'' the sessions and felt ''encouraged(tm)''.. .....and yet i couldn't recall a single ''point(tm)'' made.

  i couldn't remember what it was that actually made me feel good.. on one occasion i asked the family what they found ''encouraging(tm)'' or interesting.. tumble weed.

  no examples.

  When i was in, a large group of us would go to a waterside pub in Exeter on the sunday after the convention. Was a good time to meet up with friends you only see once or twice a year and i remember the spiritual conversations about some of the talks and especially the dramas. They went along the line of "what was that about", or how deluded those giving experinces were and just alot of plain old ridicule. Alot of it coming from those i thought were stong in the troof. I think thats the only thing i miss about the borg. I often wonder how many of those old friends are still in.

  Guilt

  does anyone ever suffer from the teachings of the wbts still.

  altough i have been out for over 12 yrs they still sometimes manage to rear their ugly head.

  sometimes a news story will make you think sign of the times, and then all those old feelings come flooding back.

  I dont dwell on them and know that its all a load crap. The mind and especially mine can play tricks on you. Being bi-polar doesnt help.

  You might need a bit of professional counselling.

  Been there done that. I think i have put my point across wrong, what i am tryin to say is that you are so ingrained, (im my case from birth) that its hard to shake of the shackles. I dont sit in a dark room quivering, i live and enjoy my life how i want to and enjoy the freedom. Its just that in dark times they can resurface.

Sometimes a news story will make you think sign of the times, and then all those old feelings come flooding back. Altough i just tend to put them to the back of my mind and go and do something incredibly unscriptual lol. But unfortunately its always there, I hate this org with all my being.

  Being a jw almost killed

  by moley in

  this is the first time i've commented on this site, but i do enjoy to come here just to help clarify myself in times of need, ie when those wretched teachings resurface.

  a bit about myself.. i was born in 1970 into the wonderful happy organisation (lol) and had a unremarkable childhood or so i thought (apart from being abused by an ms), all i can remember is being terrified of dying at armageddon.

  attending 5 meetings a week and being used to preach as people wont shout at a child, studying the literature, not being able to watch popular tv shows, no xmas, birthdays the usual shit.. fast forward to age 16 and i fell in love with a worldly girl (the horror) and got her pregnant, my parents were devasted talking all the time how people in the borg would view them, nothing about what i was going thru, 16 and becoming a father, quite a big thing to me.

  Vocalization about being a JW v. being an XJW

  by sweetface2233 in

  i know that a lot of jws are very proud of being jws, but ever since i can remember i would be very quiet about it.

  i wouldn't announce it at school or work.

  i would shy away from the subject.

  I remember playing football (soccer to my fellow americans) in the park with a group of brothers, (we were allowed to do that back then) and some worldly (some who went to my school) kids asked if they could join, only for the elder to start explaining to these kids why they couldnt join in and the reasons why we keep seperate from the world. Very bemused 11 yr olds. I wanted the ground to swallow me, and got it in the neck at school the nxt day.
