Questions from the Essay "Self-Identity and Growing Up in the Jehovah's Witnesses
by Reopened Mind inthe essay "self-identity and growing up in the jehovah's witnesses" by marcela sherwin was an interesting commentary on how being brought up as one of jehovah's witnesses affects one as an adult after they leave the cult.
only a small sample of ten adult xjws participated in the survey.
i thought it would be interesting to read the answers all of you would give to the same questions.

What they DON'T tell you
by Black Man inhey everybody, i'm in the middle of an ongoing debate w/some jws and they are asserting that everyone knows what they're getting into when they are studying and getting baptized and that nobody forces anyone to become a jw and that you can leave anytime you want.
ok, we know that's not true.
how would you counter that argument?

How is it that well educated and financially stable people become Jehovah's Witnesses?
by 21stcenturywoman inwhen i was growing up most of the jws around me were poor and lower middle class.
some were middle class, but very few were upper middle class.
only (maybe) about 1% were college educated.

Do Active Witnesses Find Meetings Exciting?

the boredom, particularly for a child, was awful.
i feel it was a form of child abuse.

My bet on how WTS will extend next Armageddon date
by RADHESYAM inso they have been pushing armageddon off since they began.. we all know the previous dates but right now they are pushing this "overlapping" generation b/s.. .
my bet for the next "new light":.
'matthew 24:14 says that 'this good news will be preached in all the inhabited earth as a witness to all nations and then the end will come' thus wecan conclude that as there are still villages such as those in the peru which have never met white men or outsiders, until those villagers receive the truth, amrmageddon cannot come!

A new religion ? possibly?
by ballistic inthis isn't exactly what i believe because i'm always changing my mind, but i kinda think this type of idea sounds interesting.
some bits stollen from elsewhere and other bits mixed with my own original thought.... the universe doesn't really exist, it's all in the mind of god.
well not strictly true, god doesn't have a mind as such; the universe and everything in it including us is all part of god.
