  Do You Believe In ANYTHING That The Witnesses Taught At This Point In Your Life?

  by minimus in

  for example, they pride themselves in what they don't believe such as immortal souls, the trinity, hellfire, etc.. some exjws still believe it is the "truth" and support the basics.. .

  Botswana: enjoyed reading your experience. The treatment of the witnesses is not surprising. For the most part their love is conditional and extremely superficial. The love is dependant of whether one goes to their blasted cult meetings. Stop going to them and they stop caring. It's just the way it is and for the most part, many of us have experience their actions

  Your story was a fascinating read. Your relationship with your father was truly unique.

  Thanks for sharing.

  In All Honesty Would You Have NOT Given Blood To Your Child If He or She Needed it?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as a "faithful witness", i never had to deal with this on a personal level.

  i imagine the pressure must be extreme with the elders and others "supporting" you to do the right thing.. do you think you would have given blood to your family member, especially your child if you were in that situation..

  I am not sure what I would have done. Unless it touches your skin its hard to predict. I do know of staunch jws who would give blood if push came to shove.

  I know a jdub that confided that if any of her kids needed blood, she would allow it secretly. Then when confronted by the elders she would lie and say she didn't allow blood. I wonder how many secretly take it.

  Depression is not a death sentence. There are many types of depression: Major, anxiety, bipolar, etc. The best advice is to put yourself under the care of a good phychiatrist. Figure out out what type of depression you have. With a good treatment-a mix of drugs and support, there is no reason why you can't enjoy life to the full.

  All the best.

  Who of you ever lied on your field service reports?

  by Julia Orwell in

  2. friends

  i've read a few people mention making up the figures for the field service reports, and i want to find out how common it is.

  i never lied on my report.

  sometimes i'd round up 15 minutes if i'd mentioned jw stuff to my brother that month, but that wasn't falsifying.

  I lie now. Every month as a matter of fact.

  But then again maybe

  its not really a lie. Afterall I pioneered for 20 years when the hourly requirements were 100 and 90. I figure I am just "borrowing" from the past.

  Appeal dismissed for failure to file opening brief----So what does this actually signify? does watchtower get another deadline on the 26??. The suspense is killing me.
