KEEP ON FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT, SIS. I think what the Elder's did was just a total lack of judgment and shows that they are not qualified by holy spirit. Not by a long shot.

I always speak to neutral parties. That is honestly the best way to go. In the JW religion, no one is to really be trusted. A neutral party can judge what's wrong with you and how you can fix it, and are not so quick to judge your actual character as the elder's may do sometimes.

How Do You Know If You Are "Marked"?
by Thoughtless inyeah, this has been a question that has been on my mind for a while, but how do one know if he has been "marked" by the congregation?

Blondie, sorry for intruding, but are you and your husband still together due to your "awakening"? Or was he by your bedside and was "awake" with you?

Exactly. I am a HUGE CG fan. Really. Many compare him as a "Will Smith" (but IMHO he is a better rapper than Will, but a worse actor than Will, for what it's worth). In his songs he often talks about him being raised as a JW. In his song Toxic, he drops a line like, " Smoking Flying Lotus, used to be Jehovah's/ I'm in yo girl and now she feelin' polish like perogies" The line was just great.

I can't say what 'awakened' me exactly, but when I heard about the theory of us picking up the bones of men after the Big A stumbled me...heavily. The fact that JW's can just sit and smile about doing yardwork in order to make way for paradise was all sorts of f*cked up. Also, the 1914 chronology really got to me as well, and I think that is what woke me up officially. The false 1919 doctrine got be "blinking" and that made me question the FDS, in which after I found out that I really wasn't "allowed" to, that is when I was fully cognizant of the Machine I am in. I am more founded in secular than WT knowledge, but with the oncoming knowledge in regards to the way WT handles pedophiles and other contradictions within WT theology (THANK YOU BASED BLONDIE), I am growing from infantile to mature in WT BS.
