Ever straight out lied to the elders faces?
by MarchOn indid you ever get busted for something that you really did do when you were a dub and get hauled in, just to sit there and deny what you were brought in for?
and then feel really good and not quilty when you pulled it off because they believed you?

DYSFUNCTIONAL and VERY STUPID RELATIVES some R JWs
by QUEENIE ini come from a long line of such relatives and a few are jws...i hope i am making myself clear --- hanging on to such folks emotionally and mentally is a very negative endeavor...there are more positive things to do with ones time--i know we do around here...shit watching tv, coloring in my coloring book and picking my nose is a few things i can come up with as being positive -- i am glad jws have the practice of shunning the dissass.
(apostates) while i nurse my infected leg i am able to find time to engage in such activities...i value my private time so i can consentrate on things i find fun and enjoyable...what people find fun and enjoyable will vary from individual to individual...taking water pills / infection pills / seizure pills is a necessity and watch tv is a lot i enjoy doing especially the news -- locally it is showing me there ar some more dysfuntional parents / people than i am or will ever be -- down right ignorant and i have had the experience that i wonder if some even post on this forum!!!!

Are teenagers old enought to get baptised?
by sleepy ini, like many on this board got baptised when still a teenager (17).. at the time i thought i knew what i was doing and could take full responsibility for my actions.. 10 years later i realise i knew very little back then compared to what i know now.. was i old enought to make my mind up?.
or could we always at any age ,be looking back at things we did wrong thinking if only i knew what i know now?.
actually how much responsibility can we hold over what we did as teenagers .weren't we pushed by the congregation and parents, we had little knowledge of anything else being force fed the "truth" since babies.. at such a young age aren't we much more vulnerable to brainwashing ?.

do you tink they sould have known better, or do you feel sorry for them?.

ANOINTED Jehovah Witness has no doubt,
by lotus inhello, i am new to this website, but have to be straightforward and say that i do not agree with most subjects and contents.
i am an active jehovah witness, but i am very lonely so i am looking for others with the "hope" or to speak to those that know someone that does.
it has been a long , hard road for me.

New To The Board
by MarchOn ini should clarify, i am new at posting, not new to the board.. i've been checking in for a short time now.
"spying", "lurking", whatever you would like to call it.
but i thought it was time to come out of the "first closet" i've been in for more than 20 years.
