  Did any of you ever have "overzealous"parents?

  by Ex-Jo Ho in

  this may have been discussed before but did any of you have crazy strict parents...i mean did they have even more strict ideas than what the religion already had put restrictions on?.

  my stepfather had been a crazy drug/alcohol addict before dragging my family into the "truth"...then it seemed he became obsessed with the religion.

  honestly...i don't know which was worse!

  did you listen to the kingdom songs on CD?

  by dobbie in

  just wondering if anyone else had the collection of kingdom melodies on tape or cd and if you ever listened to them?i ordered the whole set of 9 cds 2 yrs ago and donated over 100.00 for them!

  !was just thinking i could have bought a nice winter coat with that!i used to play them at home all the time, even in the car or when we had the group meeting at our house.i used to love one particular song cos it had a full orchestra and would play it over and over again.some of them were pretty cheesy though - one song was sung in opera style but not the words she she 'ahd' it all the way through - horrible!was anyone else as sad as me and did you actually pay for them?i regret it now cos they're all in the attic and can't bear to use them ever again..

  ok, here's a hypothetical that i'm curious about.. what if armageddon really did happen?

  not necessarily according to jw terms or timetable, but at some point it happens in your lifetime.

  would any of you return to the jws?.

  What planted the seed of doubt that lead you to leave or think of leaving?

  by NanaR in

  2. experiences

  i've been thinking of this a lot lately.

  the following experience ties my first doubt in with my present life.

  as a backdrop to this, you should know that i was a 5th generation "raised in the truth" jw through my mother (her great-grandfather got "the truth" from pastor russell).

  does anyone have any dub urban legend stories?.

  i remember a story running rampant when i was in my pre-teenage years that went a little something like this:.
