Does Devil Talk Irritate You?
by love2Bworldly ini enjoy reading the bible on my own since i left the jw's.
i get extremely irritated when other people talk to me about how satan is causing certain things in my life--example is if i'm not getting along with a coworker or anything like that.
(my husband also blames satan).

xJWs--Do You Read The Bible Anymore?
by love2Bworldly ini was wondering how some of you (ones who have been out of the org for a while) feel when you read the bible, or have you tried reading just the bible--not using the new world translation.. i still do believe in a higher being and enjoy reading the bible.
but it's a very different prospective i have on it now, my eyes have been opened and i'm reading it by itself without any wbts literature to twist the meaning of it.
i would like to quote matthew 6:15 "but if you do not forgive men their sins, your father will not forgive your sins.

by love2Bworldly inhi all--just wondered if anyone knew of any attorneys in maryland who have knowledge of wbts.

if anyone has any info for the woman, please let me know.

Elsewhere or Anyone--need link to this
by love2Bworldly in"i even showed them the picture of elsewhere holding up the 1934 yearbook, the yearbook in which the wt society wrote a letter of support to hitler and blamed the economic troubles of europe on the jews and the anglo-american empire.".
i would really like to get my hands on some proof of this.
i am compiling a personal file of stuff against the wts.

CoC--Mexico vs Malawi or other countries
by love2Bworldly ini don't know if this might be a repeat, sorry if it is.
i am in the middle of reading coc.
do you think that mexico jw's were spared by the governing body from rigid rules of not being involved in military issues/political party issues compared to other countries such as malawai, because the wts could make more money from people in mexico converting to jws as opposed to some other countries such as malawi?.

Thoughts on Reading CoC
by love2Bworldly ini am reading crisis of conscience and am wondering what goes through people's minds when they read it, i am on about page 115. i find it slow reading because of the way it is written.
even though i have been out of the org for going on 20 years, i am a little shocked at some of the stuff i'm reading and i feel like it shouldn't shock me.
i remember when i was a jw, how the governing body was put on a pedestal; everyone assumes they spend all their time studying and praying over matters from a scriptural standpoint.

Was Anyone Reinstated But Felt Marked?
by love2Bworldly injust wondering if any of you experienced what i did years ago when i was reinstated.
although people were excited about my reinstatement and said things like "welcome home", i could tell when i would see people i used to be close to--that they still treated me differently, almost like i had a disease or something.
maybe it's because i was married to a non-jw and had a baby by then?.
