One thing I've realized is that Witnesses LOVE feeling better than their fellowman. Did being a Witness make you feel better about yourself?
Did You Ever "Enjoy" Being A Jehovah's Witness?

I enjoyed being with my friends when I was one. The religious aspect did make me feel like I was hopeless though. And of course my friendships were conditional which I realised when I made the break.

Guiltiness is good for the Organization. It equals control.

It is easier to say what I enjoyed more than being a Jehovah's Witnesses.
That would be: having my fingernails pulled out one-by-one with a pair of pliers.

Oh Farkel, I don't believe that. I think that when you conscientously believed it was all good, you enjoyed believing you were in a better position than the worldly people.

Oh for sure minimus I am now ashamed to admit. I was brainwashed from 5 years of age that JWs were God's Chosen People. I mean we were The Elite of the world. For a long time (about 30 or so years) I loved that exclusive feeling, that righteous feeling of belonging to such a special group, that feeling of knowing something the majority of the world didn't.
But that feeling started diminishing over the last 10 years of being a JW and now I look back and see that feeling for what it really was. It is a clever tool that is used and encouraged by the mind controlling manipulators of the WTS to try and keep you in.
I now love just being a normal everyday 'worldly' person like everyone else.
