  Let's see...

  I was raised in a cult.

  My father sufferred from depression, OCD, had anger problems and didn't do shit for me.

  My mother (bless her soul) did the best she could but was hindered by a religious cult and a bad husband.

  I was picked on in school till f*cking senior year.

  My mother (bless her soul) told me to go to college but my presiding overseer, the district overseer, my sister and brother in law all thought she was nuts and I should pioneer and go to bethel. Guess who I listened to?

  I never learned how to have friends outside of a cult.

  I felt guilty for masturbating from the ages of 11 to 25.

  I have a 3.72 gpa and still haven't figured out what I want to major in.

  I can't concentrate. I'm depressed 4 days out of 7 and have all of one friend who I actually SEE.

  I vacillate between being a genius and being a basket case.

  "I just want to be loved, is that so wrong?"

  Experiences Dating after leaving.......

  i am going to embark on an adventure of dating outside of the jw's, i am currently fading so worried people will see me, but so be it.

  i have some apprehension just because of all the negetive conitations that exist with worldly people, afraid i will never meet someone outside the organization that could meet my needs.

  but i am taking a leap of faith and seeing what will happen.

  My first date (ever, JW time included!) came last fall. I asked this cute Claire-Danes sorta lookin' girl out from the school newspaper. I was so sure she'd say no, but she said yes and we kissed until 2 am. We dated for a couple months and then I put the kabosh on the relationship because she was even nuttier than I was. I pulled the trigger too soon. Come back!

  I forgot to mention she likes beards on men. She's such a rebel.

  My mother would NEVER say the things she told me to anyone else. And the only reason she told me is because I FORCED it out of her. She said there are other things she has doubts about but said she would not tell me about them.

  The thing that bugs me is that she doesn't take things to their logical conclusion. To be blunt, she just doesn't care about truth that much.

  I wonder where I got my brains from, really. (j/k)

  Well, look at it logically:

  Premise 1-- Jesus believed in the OT

  Premise 2 -- Jesus appointed Paul as "apostle to the nations" etc...

  Premise 3 -- The OT and Paul both condemn homosexuality

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

  Conclusion -- Jesus condemned homosexuality

  Governing Blunders Part II - Women and Cranial Capacity.

  by hillary_step in

  part i of governing blunders in which the wts used a quotation from an anonymous psychiatrist and the department on 'many authorities' attempting to prove that woman feel, while men think, and that the tow actions are mutually exclusive, reached this conclusion in part - "thus the supervision of women by men seems to be nature?s plan, however desperately women may fight it.

  as we all know, it takes as little as this type of statement for groups of men with shiny pants and briefcases to begin herding their women like cattle, trying to convince them that cooking endless 'nutritious' meals really is fun, and that holding a microphone just so, is a real mans work.

  i thought we would continue in like vein, reminding the reader once again that many of the writers and editors of the wt and awake are still writing atricles for these magazines as we speak.

  I honestly cannot see how anyone can be a Christian and condone homosexuality. It's seems pretty clear the Bible is against it. That being said, I believe the Bible is a man-made book chok full of errors so it does not affect in the least my view of homosexuals.
  
  I love it when people -- sometimes they're Christian, sometimes they're not -- pull out the "Do not judge..." and "Love thy enemy..." routine thus ignoring the many instances where Jesus, Paul and the apostles were judgmental, hateful and told their followers to do the same. I don't think quoting one of the most inconsistent books in all of history is any way to win an argument.

  Shutterbug,

  I didn't say she was "bad" I said her thining is "strange." Yes, my mom's a big improvement on your typical JW. If she ran the organization everything would be hunky dorey.
