  Steve Pinker ... evidence on the surprising decline in violence

  by digderidoo in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is an interesting lecture.

  one that flies in the face of current jw and i assume most non jw thinking.

  evidence shows that when examining history mankind was more violent over the centuries than they were during the 20th and 21st century.

  I now have a law degree!

  hi guys, i don't really post on here much anymore, having been on here since 2001. this site helped me out in the early days and has been a great support system for all of my past jw issues.

  like many others i was discouraged from an education so that i could window clean and pioneer in my youth during the 80's.

  having spent many years post my jw exit in alcoholism and periods of drugs, i decided to clean myself up 7 years ago by attending aa, i was still a window cleaner ... at the time i wrote extensively on here about my issues.

  Is being brought up a Jehovah's Witness child abuse?

  by digderidoo in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  if you feel that it was abuse then why?.

  personally my parents became jw's when i was 13 so i never had the earlier years within the religion.

  but by being controlled so much during my teen years i would liken it to abuse.
