How relieved are you now that your finally set free?
by micheal ini was thinking back to the time when i was in my "spiritual paradise" oh about 7 months ago and i can really remember just how unhappy most people really were.
most seemed so loaded down with "privledges" and "responsiblilities" that it just sucked the life out of them.
any spirit they may previously had had faded to mere a shell of their former selves.

Which way will the Society go because of the Internet?
by be wise ini've only learned the truth about this society over the last 5 months or so, so i'm not sure what the difference is to say - 2 years ago.
do you think the society will now get even more cultish in it's methods of teaching and more heavy handed if they feel things are slipping?
i don't feel i'm being over the top here because i've experienced very heavy handed talks at the assemblies and kingdom hall in the past that are just plain scare tactics but this just makes people ask more questions ??

they will definately keep up the whole the internet is the devil thing, lol. it might already be too late for that though, considering alot of people already have the internet. so they can't go back and change their minds about how we shouldnt even have it to begin with, although i'm sure they wish they could. they'll just have to keep trying to make sure nobody visits any jw sites except theirs. which wont work because people are curious. i think that in countrys were we have access to more information there will start to be a decress in numbers of witnesses, but over in other countrys the numbers will keep going up. they'll keep taking advantage of the less informed.

lol, yea i just went to the convention a few weeks ago. i could barely stay awake. it seems to me they always just want to repeat the same things, and then the brothers and sisters always ask what you learned afterwards, and since i'm still trying to keep the peace and not get thrown out of my house, all i can do is smile nicely, when what i really want to say is that i didnt learn a thing, that they are only repeating themselves every year.

yea, life after a witness has got to be a hell of alot better than it is now, my mother is always talking about how if i dont get straightened out then life is only gonna be ruff, but i dont see how it can be any worse than it is now, plus all the ex-jws i've meet seem to be pretty happy to be out of it. so yea i cant wait.

i live with my mother who is a witness. i still go to the meetings and all that stuff, because i still live with her, i'm trying to keep the peace, plus if i dont then i wont have anywhere to live. but i'm just waiting to get a chance to get out now, and as soon as i can i'll leave. its to stressful to be a witness, expecailly with a mother like mine, she is extremely strict, not the life i want to live. not really too much of a story i know, but hopefully it helps some.
