  Are you making progress?

  we're all in different stages of exiting the jw organization.. how do you feel about where you are at today, compared with a year ago?

  do you see positive growth in yourself?

  or do you feel stagnant?.

  I've been out for about 20 years now. It seems like a dream I was ever part of it. The only physical reminder I have is a grown son who went back after college and an ex-husband who refuses to let go of the tit. My boy won't speak with me and my ex-husband has little to no contact with our other three children or our little grandchild.

  Otherwise, I'm living a normal, healthy life with no regrets.

  Do you wash your hands after using the restroom?

  by John Doe in

  2. friends

  i've noticed a disturbing trend where 90% of guys don't wash their hands after using the restroom, and probably 25% don't even after number two'ing.

  encouragingly, about 80% of the guys in law school do wash their hands.

  (i know it's weird, but i count) .

  Yes, I do everytime, I even put the dry paper towel to open the bathroom door.

  Same here. I've taught my children and now my little granddaughter to do the same.

  Are Jehovah's Witnesses embarrassing 'Jehovah'?

  by Gill in

  2. beliefs

  scandal upon scandal has recently been heaped upon the members of the watchtower bible society!.

  eunice spry, infamous child abuser hit the headlines last year.. then the jw pedophile who escpaed jail despite abusing many children including a baby.. this week we discover the disturbing loss of a jw mother who haemorraged in childbirth and refused a potentially life saving blood transfusion.. i'm sure there are many more case you can think of.. do you think jehovah is pleased with the people that are supposedly a people for his name.

  or do you think he's a tad embarrassed at the bad and foolish behaviour?.

  You see this kind of stuff with most organized religions and All of the Large Ones.

  With that said, Jehovah's Witnesses Aren't Any Different from those they condemn.

  I'm trying to see it from both sides and am also attempting (although obviously not very successfully) to highlight that this forum contains too much gleeful pouncing on any witness sensationalism. We do not know all the facts.

  The facts we do have is a young mother and daughter is dead at the age of 22.

  I don't know where you're getting the idea we're "Gleeful" over this sad situation. This is News we dread hearing!

  Many of us, including myself have precious family still in this cult. We have every right to be concerned. When I was 22, I may have made the same decision so it terrifies me what can happen.
