i could never understand what was "good " about the "good news "
by looloo inas someone recruited in my 20s and spent about 6 years "interested " though never baptised , i just felt depressed after the lovebombing i received at first , i felt trapped by knowing "the truth" and wished i hadnt heard about it .
i couldnt understand what was good news about billions of innocents dying including poor children who have suffered enough in countries where there is famine etc... and all my relatives were doomed along with them !
i was a much happier person before i met jws believing you go to heaven after your death and live with god jesus and your loved ones .

Going to see an guy raised as a JW in concert, what should I do?
by EntirelyPossible inthis kills me.
i am going to see the big 4 (metallical, megadeth, slayer and anthrax) in concert in ny next month, i just found out dave mustain, the founding guitarist and only permanent member, the guy that was kicked out of metallica for partying too hard, was rasied a jw.. i am answering my own question.
party like a motherf*cker and try not to drink myself to death is what i should do.. i just thought it was hilarious.

Making peace with death
by mankkeli inhave you come to grips with the reality of dieing and ending it all, for many it was an unfathomable reality especially with the idea that many now living will never die.. but have you made peace with death?, have you resolved in your mind that death is not a painful reality and it is unfair to cheat it..

JW friend forgetting who she was for a minute and being totally cool!
by PenelopePaige inok, i said i was leaving, but i can't entirely leave- i still check the site from time to time......anyhooo......my jw friend dropped by the other day, i had said i was going to stop taking the magazines, (which i have) and she had called to ask if she could bring them, i said no and came up with some story about work on house being done that day, i was caught off guard and not yet ready to give her the boot, figured i'd break up with her another time.
anyway, i'd said i had people coming by and it wasn't a good day but then she shows up!
says she's in the neighborhood and just wants to drop them off.
