  What are the rules the WTS pharisees have burdended JWs with?

  by berylblue in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in another thread, mini questioned why the wts does not see that the gb and elders are like the pharisees.

  what do you all think are the "rules" jws have been given that smack of pharisaical (is that a word?

  ) burdening and/or hypocricy?.

  Did you look like a Jehovah Witness?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  were you ever told that you didn't look like a jehovah witness?

  i never dressed like one of them unless i was at the hall.

  i think that people looking at me would never have guessed that i was a witness.

  Lurkers - Confused

  by Mystery in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i am a newbie and apparently very naive.

  i in reading different threads, lurkers have been mentioned.

  my initial thought was "lurking" meant people like me reading for awhile and eventually posting.

  The new kid

  by Beanie in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i'm new to this site - have been checking it out for the past few nights.

  i was raised as a jw from the age of 6. i am now 26 and have two children.

  being in the truth was always a rather conflicting thing for me.

  Theft of Identity from the Borg

  by Yizuman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had a thought for most of the ex-jws who spent most of their lives in the borg.

  for those who left the borg, has anyone stopped and think, "who am i really supposed to be apart from the borg?".

  have you ever wondered what your life would have been like if you had never been a jw?

  how i got here

  by danb71 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  after having looked at this site for almost a year and recently made small replies to threads, i should introduce myself to you all and tell you how i got here:.

  i was raised as a jw.

  it didn't take long to figure out that to have more independence at home, i'd better be a stand-out jw.

  can i get your opinions?

  by danb71 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hey all:.

  first off, i want to say how much reading your posts along with the rest of this site (and others) has helped in the last year or so.

  i've been out--df'd--since '95 and was pretty comfy with my reasons for leaving, till my fiancee turned me on to this site last summer.
