JWs Chronology VS. Peace With God
by writetoknow inis the bible written for self-preservation or dependency upon god for salvation?
bible chronologist seems to imply that all depends upon their personal intellect or ability to figure out bible dates for salvation.
furthermore, they arent often concern with helping people understand the rest of the bible, that is, finding peace with god.

Did you lead a double life as a JW? Are you leading a double life still?
by Bumble Bee inas a jw, alot of us lead double lives.
i know i did.. in talking about our situations with my sister in law, realized that i now lead a double life as a "fader"!!!
my husband and i are "out" of the religion (my brother, sister in law and the kids too) but for the sake of family, they think we are still "in" although they know we are not active.

Why I have issues with Christianity
by bigwilly inaside from the jw bullshit of course.. so, i'm at work and taking phone calls as is my job.
a customer called up looking for pricing and information about some material and whether or not home despot sells equal quality product.

Some Thoughts... I'm new, this is THERAPUTIC for me... read if you'd like
by bbdodger inin a cult, the society of the cult tries everything in their power to keep one in that society, as well as keeping one ignorant of any information that would sever the guise of legitimacy.
given a version of the bible, not being able to read any other version of the bible is just one example of this kind of inflicted ignorance.
in a cult, it's impossible to get out without a fight.
