Like I said,I don't have sentimental feelings about the hall and I am NOT lying.What is there to feel sad about when you were just an outcast?They're probably just as glad I'm gone as I am to be gone.I guess that's why none of the elders have been by in the whole ten months since I left.No one has the right to accuse someone of lying unless they have walked in their shoes.

21Why the Ambivalence?
by Robdar infor the past day or two, i have been having conflicting feelings of hatred and then nostalgia for the org.
after reading bay64me's thread entitled "crisis of wardrobe!
", i fondly recalled shopping for those dowdy dresses, trying to find the perfect match between what i liked and what the society dictated for me to wear.

Have you joined another religion?
by freedom96 ini don't think i will never join another organized religion.
that being said however, i have enjoyed going on occasion to non-denominational churches, watching the band play music, and the speaker.
if you did or would attend another church regularly, which one would you go to and why?

No I would not join another religion but I have been to several functions at my uncle's Assembly of God church and they were very welcoming and friendly compared to the cold callousness of the witnesses.It didn't even seem to bother anyone that I wasn't a member.

I wouldn't understand because I was never part of a gang.I was just a reject who never got invited to anything.But I guess it must be nostalgic for those who actually had friends there.

I suspect this will sound wierd
by buckthesystem ini have been reading about the witnesses for some time - but the information i read is always massively biased against.
it is even hard to tell if this web site is exclusively designed for aggrieved ex-witnesses.
i am at a loss here.

One sentence...Stuck-up cliquish snobbish,without love,closed-circle,hypocritical private club for the elite.And yes,I am an ex-witness who faded ten months ago.

avishai,
Your story reminds me of how it was when my dad died.He wasn't baptized but he had studied with several of the elders in our congregation.My mother and I were baptized but who do you think brought food to the house and came to pay respects at the viewing?The Baptists from my brother's church.Even his preacher was there and he had never met my dad.It was a sad commentary on the witnesses and humanity.

Lilacs,
The question was,"What do you like that most people don't?"Lots of people like big white fluffy clouds on a warm spring day.There's nothing unusual about that.

It must be awful because they can't have sex.They probably look down here at us fleshly beings and wish they had never started partaking of the emblems.

Thinking about taking a break
by Elsewhere ini'm thinking about taking a break from this place for awhile.. one of the reasons i came here was because of the way jws have been so mean to me.
i don't like to see people be mean to each other.. lately i have been seeing people i care about being very mean to each other and me.
i just can't handle that.. please don't be mean.

Alfalfa,
The only negative thing I can say about you is you really couldn't sing in those old "Little Rascals" shows.I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings but sometimes the truth hurts.

I LOVE cloudy days.I don't understand why people say it's a beautiful day when it's scorching hot outside and the sun is blinding you until you can hardly see to drive.I also like soggy cereal.Why do they make such a big deal on tv ads about cereal staying crispy in milk?It's only good after it gets soggy.
