hello ....has anyone ever noticed that among the witnesses there is a certain un-written rules that you must do in order to be accepted and then it may only last a few years.
at my hall it was attend all your meetings, be regular out in service on the weekends, give talks in the school, always praise the elders, have proper dress and grooming.
nobody really cared if you are forced to work meeting nights, going back to school to keep up with your job, not putting in the quota of hours in the field, etc, etc.
Captk,exactly! You could be leading a double life,as long as your performing,dancing to the devil's tune,your in the "IN-CROWD".

does anyone here suffer with panic attacks or anxiety?
i guess i have since 1999 after coming out of a particularly abusive relationship that stripped my confidence.
funny thing back then was that my first "attack" was whilst i was on holiday relaxed when it struck.
Hi Scooby! Yes,I suffered from them in the past.Not anymore.Dr.Claire Weekes' book "HOPE AND HELP FOR YOUR NERVES",also,'Peace From Nervous Suffering', was what helped me to get this behind me.Another good book that I can recommend is,"ANXIETY & PANIC ATTACKS--Their Cause and Cure. By Robert Handly,with Pauline Neff.
These books have helped me to Conquer Fear,reduce,or, eliminate anxiety etc.I hope this information will be helpful to others also.

Some still inside are suffering in silence,trying to find a way out of this cult without losing ties with family members.The magazine dishonors them,not all who leave this cult get involved in drugs etc.While some inside Bethel may be involved in leading a double life,some do not.
The magazine in itself,as a stand alone may appeal to some,and that's find.But to link it to the issues going on between those who left and those who still struggle inside,is to hurt those who gave there lives serving,the Society,with pure motives.
I know that this is just a "PARODY".I shouldn't get so serious,send my subscription to the Governing Body.They will get the point.

i see a lot of hopelessness and cynicism now.
are you actually happier now than when you were a jehovah's witness?
Yes.I will be so much more happier when we move away from where we live now.We have to tie up a few things first ,then we will move away from the brothers and sisters that now see us every day and half smile at us when they see us.

do you think most people would serve him?
Didn't Peter ask Jesus,"What's in for us Lord,we gave up all things to follow you".Peter was looking for something for following Jesus.
So, its natural to expect something in return for giving up something for it.What would be the pupose in serving anyone if not to be rewarded for it.
There is no free lunch,and ,no one works for free,not even Jesus,not even God,He too expects something out of it,for serving man with his giving of things,He expect Worship.Why else would He work to create things for man if He did not want a reward for all he has done,His reward is the Worship He receives from mankind.
So,my answer to your question is an honest,NO!
