Ever hear an experience at an assembly that you KNOW was slanted?
by Bonnie_Clyde ini remember one at a district assembly.
a brother was being interviewed as to why he never chose over time work at his job.
he said he worked for a small printing company and that he was content with working regular hours.

I had a part on the Young People Ask book. I was a HOMESCHOOLED kid that gave "my" experience in avoiding pre-marital sex and peer pressure IN SCHOOL......I never even concidered that LYING was part of the program...I thought of it as ACTING back then.

Got home from the meeting the other day and couldn't stop crying
by JamieL ini know everyone here thinks it's probably a waste of time for me to keep going to meetings cause i'm disfellowshipped.
but i go for my own reasons, i explained these a while back when i first posted on here.
he's a jw, but we are like brothers so he contacts me sometimes and it makes me feel a little better.

GG/BG & OFG Sitting in a Tree.....
by OpenFireGlass inwhere the hell have i been?
ummmmmmmm... i've been in love!.
it's been so long i don't even know where to begin...... well... i guess it all began here at jwd... the beauty of it all, it that this is not a dating website, and the very fact that i was falling in love with a person whom i had no idea of her physical appearance... i was falling for her inner beauty and strenght to leave everything she knew to be happy, to live life.... i had finally met a person who understood me, and i could relate to her stories.... i had met my new best friend, but didn't know it yet... things progressed..... we emailed (which later led to unsolicited photos from her).... then exchanged phone numbers, etc..... then before i know it she had convinced me to purchace an airplaine ticket to meet her.

Ok so this is it
by The salmon inive been "in the truth" ever since i was 6 years old when my mother was baptised in the late 70`s.
so i sort of got dragged along to the meetings and therin started the indoctrination that was to prove to be my undoing.
ive been reading this page for a while now and read some very slick posts from dissillusioned ex members.

Do JWs qualify as Christ disciples based on John 13:34, 35?
by Sola Scriptura inim a long time lurker first time poster.
i am an open minded jw who believes in freeness of speech.
i love my faith and my worldwide brother and sisterhood (even though i see much room for improvement in how things are run).. i thought i would stir things up a bit with the following question:.

Also....ask the many children who have been (and are being) molested if they "feel the love". That is a MAJOR problem.

There are many other groups with "love amoung themselves". As I am sure you know.....the JW's are not the only people trying to do what the Bible says. The Bible also says to "love your neighbor as yourself"....which the society limits showing the love by trying to preach and convert people "of the world"....yet, many people who are not JW's show neighborly love in the truest sence.
Welcome!!!!

Do you know this feeling?
by DeusMauzzim indo you know the feeling of looking out of the window at the sky, thinking 'there will be no armageddon, everything is well, i followed my conscience...' ?.
do you know the feeling of just going for a walk, all alone.. and realizing that you are alive and out of it, that there is no god counting your hours and meetings?
that is was all just a bad dream, that you are free now to follow your own moral compass.. it makes you want to laugh and cry at the same time.... do you sometimes look at the faces of total strangers in the streets or on the train, wondering how you could have ever thought that most of them could be murdered any moment by some 'loving' god?
