Hello..this is my story..
by Lozhasleft ini'm pleased to have found this site...i've browsed a little ...read quite a lot and gasped at some stories, giggled at the one liners and nodded in recognition of others' strong opinions and can relate to a great deal.. i'll try and keep my intro as brief as possible for anyone kind enough to listen.. i got involved with the witnesses in the late 70's in the uk.
i was in my early 20s and had had a love and fascination for the bible since my difficult childhood.
i soon brought my life into 'line' although it took a long time for me to pack up the smoking which didnt go down well in those days when 6 months of study should have been enough and if you hadnt cracked it then it was suggested that you were some kind of loser.... i reared my 4 children in the 'truth' as well as i could but i cant claim that we were a 'strong' family in their terms...just muddled along really..my husband at the time was a very difficult and abusive man and home life wasnt easy for any of us with his anger, jealousy and violence.

"We're not here to convince you this is the truth."
by sd-7 inthose were the words of an elder during my judicial committee.
it's weird that they suddenly came to me, weeks later.
i can't help recalling the disappointment i felt when i heard that.

WT 4-15-60--re: relevance of false beliefs
by sd-7 inpeople will go to any church, admits a honolulu clergyman, without suspicion as to false doctrine.
thus in this age of deception and falsehood millions of persons are uncritical even when it comes to the vital sphere of religious beliefs; they accept what they hear without investigation, even though doctrines of the various churches conflict with one another.. .
an educator recently pointed out why people are not taught to test their beliefs and why people often accept even implausible doctrines.

Straw man in last week's WT
by sd-7 ini couldn't help noticing the wt study article this weekend, which was about cultivating love that never fails.
the correct spelling of it should have been cultivate, by the way.. the straw man of the love that the world shows was presented first--that people in the world know only romantic love, love of money, love of themselves, and love of pleasures.
this was contrasted with the 'love' that jws show, which consists of obedience to god's commandments.
