who believes in reincarnation ? my 7 year old told me " mummy did you know that we have all been here before but we just forget "!
by looloo ini asked her who told her that as i knew the school would not have covered that subject , she replied " nobody told me , i just know it "!
i have heard that children have a better memory of that kind of thing but i was still amazed !.

i could never understand what was "good " about the "good news "
by looloo inas someone recruited in my 20s and spent about 6 years "interested " though never baptised , i just felt depressed after the lovebombing i received at first , i felt trapped by knowing "the truth" and wished i hadnt heard about it .
i couldnt understand what was good news about billions of innocents dying including poor children who have suffered enough in countries where there is famine etc... and all my relatives were doomed along with them !
i was a much happier person before i met jws believing you go to heaven after your death and live with god jesus and your loved ones .

if the yorkshire ripper and baby ps killer is a jehovahs witness now are you insulted that your familys would be more willing to talk to these monsters than you ?
by looloo ini have read articles about peter sutcliffe (he brutally killed 13 women in the north of england in the 70s ) becoming a jehovahs witness in broadmoor and jehovahs witnesses have commented about him being a "changed man " etc and also the man who is serving 5 years for his part in the death of baby p becoming a jehovahs witness , i commented to my husband that his mum (jw ) would technically feel more comfortable having a chat and a coffee with them (because they love "the truth" ) than her own disfellowshipped children !
does this kind of story annoy those of you who are slandered for being "apostate" etc by family ?
and why dosnt it make die hard jws see the craziness of it all ?.

i have finally decided to "give up " on jw family !
by looloo inmy inlaws have now not visited my child of 7 for more than 2 years since we moved a half hour drive away as i didnt want to live in the same town as my other childs abuser (an ex min servant ) after he was released from prison !
they only visited once and i made it clear that they were welcome anytime as they left , since then they havnt bothered but have told people that i dont allow them to see my child , which is not true .
my mother in law tried to give some money to my child recently through her disfellowshipped son but he asked "why ?

did you actually believe man had only been around for 6000 years when you were a jw ?
by looloo inwhen i was a study i had a real problem with that one and dinasours and the fact that skeletons of early man were found indicating man had in actual fact been around for millions of years !
we copuld not argue with that evidence , so how did we manage to convince ourselves that the rest of jws beliefs were true ?.

i saw jehovah witnesses today and actually had a panic attack !!
by looloo ini saw them in the distance going door to door , (about 6 of them plus child in pushchair ) i knew i had to walk past them but started panicking !
i was thinking please dont speak to me or i will explain why im not interested in your religion , i left my town to get away from them !
due to my daughters sexual abuse by a ex min servant who had abused others in the congregation also but had never been reported !
