many times i wanted to strangle him!...his wife left him and the truth, since then he is worse..

Were you forced to resign from your church before getting baptized a JW?
by Thechickennest ininterestingly, after i left the witnesses after 25 years, i found out that i was still a member of our local methodist church!
i just picked up and went on again as a methodist......i never resigned.
does this mean that technically i was never really was a jw because i did not resign from my church before getting baptized as jw?

From innocent to...
by mind my own inhow many of you initally checked out this site for completely innocent reasons?
just stumbed across it and couldnt' stop reading, or to see what was being read with the intent of setting us or someone else in your life straight?
then b/c of what you read you could no longer buy into the whole jw fraud and left the org or are in the process of leaving?

If Jw hate being a part of the world so much, why do they try...
by jetery inwhen i was a witness i remember asking one of the elders if it would be alright to donate to different causes/charities like the american cancer society,st judes hospital etc.
he told me that these organizations only provide temporary relief whereas god kingdom would provide permanent relief.
) he was so down on these organizations but yet when he needed them for help he sure didnt hesitate to ask them.
