  How I recently handled JWs at my door

  by Christian guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the jws stopped by my house a couple weeks ago on a saturday morning.

  i knew that with others most likely waiting for them out in the car they probably did not then have much time to engage in any serious conversation.

  so i let them talk while i feigned interest in what they had to say.

  Did having kids make your decision to leave easier or harder?

  by Comatose in

  i was thinking about a few things confusedandalone said the other day.

  i mirrored his thinking identically.

  for me it was having kids that made my decision to leave an easier one.. if i had no children, i might still be in and just going through the motions.

  Even though I haven't left yet, it's makes it easier. They are my driving force to get out. They've already missed out on enough, but at least things can be different for any kids they may have.

  My kids aren't baptized, and I can tell they are not really into it, so that also helps.

  Can't tell a member of the military, "thank you for your service".

  If you want to show a JW some of the older publications from a non-apostate and 'safe' website..

  "it is appreciated that these documents do not reflect the current understanding of the bible enjoyed by jehovah's witnesses, and for up-to-date information the reader is encouraged to visit the official site of the watchtower bible and tract society.".

  i'm a writer/artist published a little all over the place.

  i started my career in france, about 35 years ago.

  Thanks for sharing Vince! I'm so glad for you. Being able to finally take off the mask must be really exhilarating for you at this point in your life. Your story is inspiring and motivating.

  I can identify with your experience coming to JWN. It has been a lifesaver. The people here are nothing like I expected from an "apostate site." Just normal people, no hidden agendas.

  Googled some of your work...EXCELLENT! So glad to hear/see your success!
