mother and sister in law ask if we believe it's the 'truth'?

by Victorian sky in

it was awful.

they knew my husband (primitive genius) and i were inactive for years both when we were single and married but they didn't know we were christians now.

they suspected and finally asked us during a recent visit whether or not we believe the org is the 'truth'?

oh check it out. from 6 am monday morning....... till 1:30 pm wed, not a word. i called them 8 or 9 times to see if they were close to home so i would know they made it. wasnt trying to pressure them or anything cause thats up to them if they wanna choose a publishing company over their first born lol.

I FINALLY get a phone call, now i know they hung up on me cause when i would call it would ring and ring then go to voice mail........ then other times instantly like when you hang up on someone. excuse is............ oh it was storming, phone wasnt working properly, bad reception in the valley. k i aint gonna jump ass over that...... but none of that affects the land line at their house duhhh. i did answer with a "well im glad to finally know you guys made it home safely" but i aint the type to come down on them for it. i was giving them time to adjust to the fact i aint ever going back and that i worship god AND jesus now.

got a bunch of excuses straight out of the gate, all of which i know are not true. at the end of the call i got the distinct feeling that will be the last phone conversation for quite a while.

hey unlike some religions i give people the benefit of the doubt, and im not ashamed of my relationship with god. I was ashamed to preach about him as a dubass but I have no such feelings about saying things about him now. i always felt bad because it was like im force feeding the wt and a mags to people. now i dont feel that way when the conversation turns to god. when they asked about why im doing nothing about the truth.... i gave them a way out. they insisted and........... wow im not ashamed of god so there is nothing that can make me hold that back. hundreds of thousands of people go through this regularly, guess its just my turn.

i am glad she called, and i know time will tell how they will view me and the wife. kinda funny her dub fam thinks i turned her away and mine think she's the devil hahahahah.

its kinda a relief........ hell maybe i should post my real pic up since im outta the dub closet. haha kinda feel free to be myself......... something you can never be as a dub.

they left ......... i gave them time to get bout 3/4 of the way home..... then i started calling to make sure they were going alright........... silence............... i bet i called them 8 or 9 times over a 2 hour period in case they were in a dead spot and the phone wouldnt work. thus begins the shunning.

Its funny and screwed up. they try to say that dfing is loving and i kept saying that i know the bible says not to associate with someone who is sinning, not even shareing a meal with them, k got that. but if the witlessnesses wanted to apply that they should make it in public as in a social thing.

you get a drug dealer......... if he goes to church he isnt there to sell crack, hes there to try and find god. would i be seen publicly with a drug dealer........... hell no, not my companion of choice, yet bible says thats what some of you were before you were washed clean by the blood of the lamb..... so FORMER drug dealer sure. anyone comes to church they should be treated with love while there at church, and if not associated with outside of it so be it. that i could see jesus condoneing a little bit, or something simular because bad association can spoil good habits and all. but not breaking up families and no contact at all.

i argued that point ...... might as well have been to a brick wall. oh well im satisfied with what i got, i still worship god and i am not living a totally messed up life. i go to church regularly, and i actually WANT to go, not the forceing that i had to do at the hall. my life is a million times greater outside the dubs, when my sister asked if i was never going back to the truth i told her straight up........ it aint the truth. im not ashamed of god or my relationship with him. i havent been broadcasting it to all of the dubs because i really enjoy talking to my family occasionally but its their choice and i can go to my grave satisfied with mine.

primitivegenius

got a story for yall. new circuit overseer came to my familys cong. hard ass about working at night or basicly any time a meeting is being or could be held. jumps everyones ass that has to work evenings to make ends meet, says that they better quit their jobs and find others............. hummmm guess thats easy to say when this MFer gets his check from the wts no matter what huh. he apparently meets with everyone who has any "PRIVLEDGES" elder, ms, ect and who work during some or all meetings and says he will remove them( please ) if they dont i guess repent of their sins lol. now where my fam lives jobs are hard to come by unless you have that college education that the witnesses refuse to allow the rank and file dubs to get. aint that sweet, by their actions you will know that they have love among themselves right....... um .......... maybe not. now a brother who i know that is sick with cancer.... chemotherapy ect, was just moved onto a shift where his schedule will interfear with meetings but he is away getting treatment. when the co caught his ass he said that the only reason he was leaving him as a servant was because he was so sick.......... otherwise he would be removed( could he get that lucky? ) now this same brother is less than a year from retirement, so really what the hell does it matter cause with him he wouldnt miss a meeting unless he absolutely had to unfortunately. now when he brought this up among my family they instantly started the dub BS by defending this bastard saying that he really didnt mean it like that but was testing the brothers. ok............. only one person can test me and get away with it as far as im concerned and thats god. supposedly this F-er is doing this to see how they react, to see if there good lil dubbies with their heads up there asses. when they say pay my bills and ill quit then he knows they arent good little jehovahs witlessnesses and feels inclined to remove them. my wife and i were like WTF, both of us steaming mad at this asshole and the org that empowers him that we were sitting there shakeing. i was like damn as if the org wasnt controlling enough as it is. guess its good ive moved on because that probably woulda provoked a two finger salute on my behalf. i mean what a dickless wonder and yet my family defended him as if his words came from jesus himself..................... pray for em lol.

my mom and my sister came to visit....

by theinfamousone in

now in case you're wondering why this is such a big deal and why the tears are streaming down my face right now, feel free to look at my story as i like to call it.... http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/7/101870/1758191/post.ashx#1758191.

so i think it was thursday i decided to make a huge pot of my little sisters favorite soup for her... when i went to drop it off at their house, well, they werent home, so i left it there with a note just saying hi to her and my mom, and that i miss them and love them... which is probably a shot at my dad who, well you know what i think of him.... i was quite perturbed because i did not receive a phone call or anything to acknowledge that they had received it... so i was a little worried that my father had found it and ripped up my note and thown the soup away... i know it sounds stupid, but i made the soup for my sister, and i mean, i guess it was just to show her how much she means to me... i guess i could have bought her some kind of present, but i dunno, making something seemed right at the time..... so anyways, finally today i get home from school and find a note under my door... they had both come to visit and they left me a note... well my mom wrote a quick note saying they had visited and were sorry they missed me and thanks so much for the soup and for bringing it to them and showing that i do miss them.... she wishes she had been able to see me... my sister wrote me a letter, and left it under my door as well... she wrote on the enveloppe she wanted to give it to me, but was sad she couldnt see me... she says shell call.... this wouldnt be such a big deal, but its the first contact ive had with her in three months or so... i mean, ive called and left messages, but i dont know if any of them even get to her... this little girl means the world to me... and i havent been able to see her in months.... it isnt fair.... so here i am sitting by the phone, thinking of calling in sick to work, just so i can speak to her, i dont want to miss her call... .

i feel so alone right now, and i just dont know.... im pathetic i know, but i miss her so much..... the infamous one

primitivegenius

infamous, wow, I just read your story. You are such a good person, you did not deserve what happened to you. I cannot comprehend how your 'father' could treat you that way. I have an adopted sister that I love to pieces, my family treats her as if she's blood because she is to us. Your 'father' has a lot to answer for and so do those elders for not protecting you. You're a better man than daddy dearest will ever be and deep down, he probably knows it. You are strong and courageous. I am so glad your mom and sister came to visit. I really don't think you'll lose your sister, sounds like you guys have a strong bond that even the gb can't break. I'm happy for you, that you're going to college, pursuing your dream, living your own life your way. Stay strong and God bless.

meeting survival guide games we play

one doesn't grow up religiously attending '5 meetings a week' without developing a strategy for survival.

mine started at about ten years of age and gradually grew more sophisticated as the years assemblies rolled by.

primitivegenius

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh got it............. now i hate to contribute a damn red cent to the bastards. i wish i could get my dollas back but ...................... get as many pennies as possible, k follow me so far? in the middle of the meeting get up and go to the bathroom........................... stop by the controbution box......... start dumping the coins in and keep it going untill everyone is looking back at you hehehe. we had two different boxes at the hall when i was going........ one was made of hardwood and damn loud. one old bastard would do this at least once a month. the people who had to count the money would look at each other and be like F&^% not again. the other box was made of aluminum and about four feet tall and looked to have been made out of 6 or 8 inch pipeing. metal bottom and top. same kind used at our conventions and every penny rattled like hell going down lol. ............. new thread........ what besides money can we put in the contribution boxes for fun,,,,, something gross or discustin

when i got bored i would step outside for some fresh air and go from car to car checking doors............ those left open were fair game. turn radio full volume, windshield wipers on high, if winter then ac blasting summer heater boiling. mirrors twisted outta alignment. i usually found at least three or four cars that were unlocked lol. i only did that a couple of times tho but very entertaining hehehee.

JW's ruin my dinner.

by moshe in

i took my family to red lobster tonight and shortly after we were seated ( it was about 5 pm- early) a large party came in and took up two tables next to us.

one young woman had a very loud laugh and because of that i kept looking at their table.

then i noticed a young black couple with a toddler- then i noticed all the men had suits and ties- then i noticed three single men were sitting together and three single women next to them- and finally one young couple that i decided were married.

primitivegenius

i agree with oldflame that to treat them badly or rudely would affirm their false faith .............. HOWEVER i still mighta hadta whispered to the hostest that it was three groups celebrateing birthdays........ so they would get the whole place singing happy birthday to them and a free cake lol. now that woulda been damn funny
