It's tough learning the truth
by Cook My Socks UK inthis just came to me(after a few jd's).. i need another study!
i was raised a jw as yound child and so have known nothing else(bar a few christmas and birthdays), what i read makes sense but doesn't make sense at the same time.
i find it easy to dismiss what i read here but inside know it's not being true to myself.

The Ever Hilarious Awake Magazine!
by metatron inthousands of years ago, greek philosophers advised, "know thyself".
if the watchtower society had existed back then, they would now hold the record for the most un-self aware and oblivious to their faults - religion ever!.
it's like shooting fish in a barrel.

JW children taught cold calling techniques
by Xanthippe ini had a double glazing salesman call today.
he was so irritating because he didn't tell me who he was but instead started asking me questions about my house and some slightly personal questions.
in the end i found myself saying who are you and what do you want.. then i thought heck this is what i was taught to do.

Update: It has been forever since I have been on the forum
by crazy2try inwell, it has been a long time since i have checked in.
i have been fading from my congergation for awhile now.
my husband was having issues with it all, but i am proud to say he has completely backed me up and now has jumped ahead and completely changed his thinking on attending meetings and raising our children within the org.

Out of the mouths of babes
by dissonance_resolved insince i started my fade, i've been really worried about my kids being taken to meetings by my husband and continuing to be indoctrinated.
i guess i needn't have worried, though, the wt is digging their own grave for me.
below is verbatim my young daughter's notes from a recent meeting (though names have been changed):.

A Witness Child

i thought i would share a sample of her writing.
it is fun for us to read, but a little sad to see the guilt she placed upon herself for doing normal kid things....... .

Sunday School
by Quillsky inwhy don't jw's have sunday school for kids?
i don't want to give the cult any ideas, but it sure would help them to keep the families in, plus be more mainstream in the eyes of the public.. oh my god, the indoctrination you could do on little minds in sunday school, rather than the mind-numbing age-inappropriate stuff kids have to sit through in the watchtower study..
