  do they actually believe that if they tell you that you are "missed", that you will desire to return to the sheepfold?

  Some people get lonely. It must be like being in an abusive relationship, you get conditioned to it.

  I wouldn't condemn these poor souls.

  I was lucky. I have a new life out of the Borg now.

  One thing about this site that bothers me

  by keyser soze in

  the constant references to 'window washers' as something derogatory.. i understand the context of it-that most jws are uneducated, and unqualified to do much more.

  but sometimes the references seem snobbish, almost mean-spirited.

  one poster, on another thread, essentially referred to window washers as 'losers'.

  Hi Phizzy, no I haven't lost my anger for what they do. I just don't feel it's personal anymore. Do you know what I mean??

  It's like I've got it into perspective now.

  Anonymous Donation - Not!

  by why144000 in

  2. friends

  my mother in law (in her 80's) just told me that she had the elders around to pick up her 'donation' pledge.

  it was 'suggested that $20 a month was the average amount pledged but she could pledge more or less.

  so, rather than an anonymous amount they have a signed document stating the amount of her pledge.

  They are using the Bible to their own ends, just like the Pharisees.

  1 word comes to mind - thieves.

  We all do it. Will probably do it in the future as well!!! The key is empathy and forgiveness, not judging each other. If you can see your errors admit to them, you're nearly there.

  I do enjoy your posts.

  Take care.

  What I really hate....

  by Perversion of a truth in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is that i was born into this cult, taught and believed that i was going to live forever, , that i was never going to have to die.

  now i am in my mid 30's realizing that this life is all there is and that after that i am dead forever and i am terrified.

  i don't want this to be all there is, , i don't want to just live a few years on this beautiful planet and then become non existent forever!

  I feel so sorry for you. I suffer from panic/anxiety attacks and you feel awful, I feel dizzy and shaky as if I'm going to pass out.

  I'm not afraid of dying. I do believe there is something more but can't tell you what.

  I think LisaRose has a great handle on it. I aspire to that woman!! Breathing and physical activity really help. I clean my house like mad when I feel an attack coming on!! Or blitz the office filing!!

  Take care now.

  First Post - Emotionally Torn

  2. experiences

  i haven't been on here long but i found this site a couple days ago and quickly realised it had a lot of posts by people going through similar experiences as me.

  i read some of the answers and it helped relieve some inner anguish i've been carrying since everything i came clean to my parents about everything i've been reading about.. .

  i just have been going through a rough patch right now; that might be an under or overstatement depending on your own personal experiences with this kind of stuff.

  it seems every cong seems to have some guy who is 35 and never had a job or moved out of mom and dads basement.. i knew a guy who just hand out magazines at work so he would get eventually fired and could sleep in till noon everyday.

  of course his elder father though he was a real matyr cause he kept losing jobs for jehovah.

  i have an electrican friend who apprenticed some jw kid till he got his ticket and he quit him to pioneering.
