What my mother should have done.

by LovelyEunie in

this is somewhat of a rant but every time i think of it it just pisses me off.. .

i never understood why my mom would never switch to another hall or whatever when she knew how i was treated by the people who were supposedly the 'best' association around.

my older sister also, because neither of us really had any jw friends because for whatever reason i guess we were pegged as the baddies because our dad wasn't witness (still isn't) and my mother stayed sick a lot so she wasn't able to do half of whatever was required.. .

I sort of feel the same as you. Unlike you I'm not old enough to live on my own yet so I haven't escaped the borg but I'm always depressed or upset and part of it is from not having real friends. Theres the other teenagers at the kingdom hall but it's not like I can tell them anything about how I really feel because they're all brainwashed and they'll tell the elders if I tell them something questionable. There's a girl I like that goes to my hall but I know I'll never be able to be with her because by the time I'm old enough to date by the watchtower's standards, I'll have moved away.

The worst thing is I can't even fake everything well enough to fit in with the other teens at the hall. I'm always the outcast and if I talk sometimes the so called 'friends' will straight ignore me, even the ones that say they're my best friends. And if everyone is standing in a circle and talking they seem to think it's ok to literally push me out the way and take my spot.

So yeah, this sounds like a rant, but just wanted to tell you you're not alone.

Satan and the demons, ghosts, spirits, fortune tellers. Are they real?

by KateWild in

i believe in god.

i don't believe he punishes or rewards people.

so by the same extention i don't believe any spirit beings can communicate with or influence humans.. many who do not believe in god though, have gone to fortune tellers.

UFCFan

I don't believe in all this stuff because there just isn't anything to back it up. Plus I go back and forth between athiesm and diesm and if you don't believe in god it doesn't make sense to believe in spirits, who would be created by him.

Do you think that the Jehovahs Witness religion would be better /worse if their were an equal number of male/female on the G.B.?

of course this is a hypothetical question , it will never happen .?

but what if it did , what do you think the society would be like if it did happen .?.

let your imaginations run wild .

UFCFan

It would be the same. It doesn't matter what gender they are they'd still be delusional.

by kneehighmiah in

the leaks from the new november watchtower are alarming.

they will disturb even longtime jws who haven't surrendered all rational thought.

it's become so cult like its scary.

UFCFan

Can anyone link to the leaked watchtower? I want to check this out.

by losingit in

jw

with the unveiling of the new jw logo, and all of the emphasis placed on it , will the borg dare to put it on a flag?

i hope they do!

imagine all whom would wake up with such an act!

UFCFan

Jw.org = the golden calf, lol.

I wouldn't be shocked.

Do Jehovah's Witnesses actually HATE?

by clarity in

do jehovah's witnesses actually hate?.

hatred (jwfacts).

the direction given in the watchtower goes strongly against christian examples when demanding members hate an apostate.. *.

UFCFan

I don't think the JWs in my congregation know what hating something actually is.

"Before and After" JW Cult Education Pamplets I wish to Make!

by BucketShopBill in

i have three stories i would like to tell through a quick message showing the effects of the watchtower, "before i became a jw" and "after i became a jw".

the first would be the real life story of a successful jw business woman who was on track to become ceo of a major s&p 500 company until two jw elderly witnesses weasled their way in to her life.

the second is the happy family everyone loves and all the lives they touch until the cult turns them in to drones.

UFCFan

Good idea. It would be even cooler to leave one of these around the KH and see what happens.

DF=death

by doneandout in

our last midweek meeting was going along as planed, then after the last talk, an elder was called up to say: member x is no longer a jw, please sing.... after the song it was silent (compared to todays were people started talk right away) and the father had his head down with someones hand on his back.

i didn't catch what they were saying, but the pose said: i'm sorry for your loss.. it was a weird night thinking how leaving a religion could couse such sadnness.. jw.org.

UFCFan

Yup. That's why it's going to be hard for me to leave when I'm old enough to live on my own, the few friends I have that are at least semi-real friends would shun me and then I'd have to start over my life from scratch.

i dont know if its just my friends or everyone but they are obsessed with jw.org.

UFCFan

I actually saw JW.org jewelry during my three days in hell convention...

Need a Game Plan

by bafh in

i'm not sure what is going on at the convention, but i just got a desperate call from a friend wanting me to attend sunday's morning session.

last weekend, my mom invited me too.instead of saying something like, "i'm sorry, but i have no intention of going back," and having them completely freak out - i agreed to go to the sunday morning session.

any recommendations?

UFCFan

IDK if you still need help but my plan was to find other things to think about to keep yourself from getting brainwashed... Sports, politics, whatever, just think of other stuff for most of the time.
