  they might be able to kick me in the nuts, but they can't knock me out.

  Does being a JW make a person physically sick?

  by Gill in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  definitely mentally and more than likely physically.. i have read on a few posts and freeminds about an increase of mental illness amoungst jws of between 2 and 40 % and it seems understandable considering the amount of stress being in the borg puts on people.. but what about physically?.

  what are your experiences since leaving the borg?.

  do you feel well and fitter than ever before?.

  My cong is filled with sick people. Most suffer from some form of mental anguish. So I would have to say YES tht being a JW can make a person sick.

  New and need a question answered before I post any other questions

  by soundbox_guy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  okay, first off, let me get this straight...you guys are all witnesses, some all active, some do things all the way right, some don't do things all the way right?

  some are by the book but not preachy, and some are witnesses that are rogue and do things their own way?

  i just want to know before i post any doubts or concerns or anything because even though i know we're supposed to stay away from places like this on the internet, i don't want what i say somehow getting back to my congregation somehow and next thing you know 4 elders come busting through the door waving "no blood" cards and shouting "freeze, jehovah's witnesses!

  We have a family plan. It's based on what we have learned on this board.

  If the elders ever came after my husband and I we would sue the local elders.

  I showed this point about a month ago to my father in law. He said that 10 years ago there was an article that basically said that Korah would be resurrected because he was swallowed up by sheol.

  I thought this was "new light" but he didin't think so.

  Any scholars in the house today that can clarify this for us?

  I'm telling lies from the stage

  by DannyBloem in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i recently gave a public talk, and i really felt bad about it.. it was the public talk about the great flood of noahs days.

  the is so much evidence that this great deluge never happened, but that is something you can't tell the audience from the stage.

  (i will tell about that evidence if people are interested, but it is a bit off-topic now).

  How about giving talks and parts on what you can feel comfortable and refuse the ones that you feel uncomfortable with.

  2. friends

  well i am no longer one of jehovah's witnesses.

  i had fully intentioned to disassociate myself from the platform today, but i decided that if i wanted a chance to save my marriage that i'd better tell my wife.

  she immediately went to to one of the elders.

  How many days did you spend in the Hall?

  by IP_SEC in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i just did some rough (haha) figuring to determine how many days i spent just sitting at the hall during meetings.

  i just rounded to the nearest year to be liberal in take into account missed meetings and the like.

  i know the number is higher but i dont feel like getting more exact.. this just counts regular meeting times, not before and after fellowship, not fs, meeting prep, or assemblies.. i came up with 349 days.

  I don't know what is happening in the big house. It sure sounds like there are many school of thoughts up there.

  Just 2 years ago in the June 1, 2003 the study article had this to say:

  Jehovah?s people avoid speculation but remain spiritually alert, fully aware of political and religious developments that fit into the framework of the fulfillment of Bible prophecy

  Who is specutating now?????

  OH It just hit me!!!!!! It's Jehovah's people that should not speculate. The top must not be part of Jehovah's people since they do plenty of speculating.
