It was couple of interesting weeks for us. We were visited by some good friends from Org. and ended up discussing lengths and breadths about all Org misses in the past. Of all the topics we discussed, the only thing that they kept on asking us was - if this is not the best, which is? What did Jesus mean when he comanded to make disciples? How can you worship jehovah and be spiritual without someone directing it? While one of them was making a lot more sense by accepting mistakes that Borg did and that they are improving (with new bible and all), the others were basically telling us that Satan is trying hard to get us away from Jehovah's people (A BIG DUH!). Also that Disfellowshipping was a LOVING experience for many who have been re-instated have accepted that this was the best orgnization and elders were very considerate during the Dfing business. Also People who quit this org either end up being Agnostics or Atheists (Basically no other org / religion can be on par with the high standards set by Jdub Org).
End of the discussion they concluded by telling to take the best teachings, leave the rest (crappy blood transfusions etc) stuff for later to be decided upon as and when we reach that stage in life when we have to choose family or religion.... And surprisingly everyone agreed as they said family comes first. This left me thinking, are we heading towards having a liberal view (due to the ones in the current generation) and moving away from Authoritarian views from the 50s, 60s, 70s? Any thoughts?

Bragging among JWs...
by ohnightdivine inposting about the wonderful preaching day on fb... posting about what they ate for lunch, snacks, dinner after preaching... posting about rubbing elbows with the co, do, etc... posting about getting into pioneer school... swooning over the latest gadgets, right after the meeting... being obsessed about what clothes to wear during the assemblies.... etc.. etc... being proud of having an sp, bethelite, etc relative... being unable to take pride in academic, secular, or other normal achievements leads to the above, i guess.. and it's not at all different from how "worldly" people behave these days... .

They really do have shallow lives. I did too when i was Uber Dub. You seek to take pride in 'God's' Service and end up doing ungodly things - shunning everyone worldly, having no natural affections, 'showing love' ONLY to 'spiritually' strong ones and being hypocrite entire lives!

I have the exact same feeling... Initially scared to death that some one will get to know that i am apostate in the making.. But after such a warm welcome from this forum helping me through my exit by suggesting the books that showed me the TTATT, i feel free for the first time ever!! Thanks every one!!! I have managed to convince my hubby too now.. :D
