  by Hopscotch in

  2. bible

  the following quote is taken from the article is it wrong to change your religion?

  in the july 2009 awake p29:

  no one should be forced to worship in a way that he finds unacceptable or be made to choose between his beliefs and his family.

  How could any of us here ever actually believe it again????

  by oompa in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have two df'd friends...one gay....and they are both going back to meetings to be reinstated.

  one has a serious drinking problem and he feels the jw life with friends and family again will help him with the drinking (i would drink even more!

  )....he has some doubts, but believes a lot of it.. the gay friend you would think is full of holy spirit!....i thought from prior discussions she thought it was all bs....but nope, he has just always felt he was an evil sinner and wants a better relationship with god and to be with family....proven it to their self that it is full of lies?

  I second what Flipper had to say:

  "The only way anybody could " actually believe it again " after having it proved to be a sham - they would have to be insane. "

  Its SO true!! I read Blondie's WT study from this past Sunday and I was so disgusted .......... there is NO way I could never go back!!!

  I know there are bigger issues about the "why" being discussed and I'm VERY curious too.....but on a small side note...
  that's A LOT of work that will have to be done to "remove" WT logo's!!!!

  I had a discussion with my spouse about MAYBE this might wake up my family that something weird is going on with the society!
  OR at least maybe a chance for conversation BUT he brought up a good point - they will probably twist this into:

  "the end is coming and the society is protecting them and the kingdom hall so it's not so easily identifiable or more plain so the building will go un-noticed when bad guys comes to shut down religion".

  lol...amusing yet sad cause he's probably right.

  Anyways, just had to get that written and out of my head.

  Thanks, Ruth :)
