I am embarrass to say when I was A JW and A elder I
thought I could sit down and speak on any subject with
anyone intelligently. I felt the schooling of the WT had
equip me with a clear perception of truth on any subject.
Yes the school of the WT and it,s academic degree has
set me back to middle school.
Well, I was raised in and you know that teenagers know everything!
I'm going back to school and it seems the more I learn, the more I realize just how much I don't know- and that's a lot.
Not an intellectual per se... but I thought I knew a lot about a lot, if that makes any sense. Mostly, I'm just a member of the Keepers of Odd Knowledge Society (KOOKS lol). I know facts about a lot of shit that doesn't matter...a lot of meaningless trivia. I'm really fun at parties...
Jadeen; I realize ,the more I learn the dummer I got..
I'm in the same boat....the more I learn and take in. The more I realize I must have looked and sounded like an idiot! LOL Witness motto..."you may not have heard of me....but I'm kind of a big deal!" (Ron Burgundy's voice)
It's so sad that I actually used to think everyone else was misinformed and not using their brains.
Yeah, I thought I knew the bible. I also thought I knew what other religions taught. It took me leaving to recognize how dumb I was.
I was already well educated when I went into it ...which makes me feel more stupid...
Loz x
lozhasleft; That,s funny.
Not reall it felt wrong even when I was young. Now I am studying all religions.
I thought I was smart. I mean I was only 1 of the 6,000,000 that knew the truth! I thought I knew everything about the Bible and why other religions were wrong... Ug
