Hello everyone
by Wordlygirl ini have been lurking on here for some time and i finally decided to join the fray.
i am 25 years old and was raised in the society.
fortunately when i was 8, my father left the organization and this allowed me to see the wrold from both angles, the jw (mom) and not (dad).. at first, i was strongly on the side of the witnesses and i even allowed myself to be convinced that getting baptised at 11 was a good idea.

Hi all, I'm back...and it's DC time - Damn!
by kzjw inbeen almost 8 months since posting...peeked a little -- but i was becoming consumed by the big "w".
my wife's the jw, but i hold the hatetred!
i had to back away...since then i've managed to remove old publications(she stores them now), i'm an opposer now, so i've not really had any elder contact, she's still doing bs & fs, but not much talk.

As a JW Did you Feel you Could Fully Trust the Elders ?
by flipper ini know for many of the 44 years i was in the jw cult from birth - i felt i could.
or should i say i was conditioned to feel that " i should " trust the elders.
as jehovah's witnesses we were all told the elders were " crags in a waterless country " who would be a " spiritual stronghold " for us.
