In my area, JWs were very cliquish. One had to be accepted by the clique, mostly made up of preps/jocks obsessed with clothing and sports. If you were excluded to these circles, no matter how “theocratic”, there was no way you were dating. What is left over of those excluded were often “mismatched pieces”.

Can somebody explain the songs and songbook obsession?
by careful ini've been out a while and have only put in a rare appearance at a memorial or brief visit at a convention/assembly to keep people off my back, so i haven't kept up on the songbook.
but one thing i've noticed that the org.
has been doing that they never did when i was in is all these "supplemental songs" that keep appearing.

I remember at the annual meeting a little while back Splane playing maestro. That makes sense. Who is going to tell him his music sucks? -

As a JW, I never understood why JW dating sites were not allowed. It still makes no sense.
I would like to add that as a male, it is NOT EASY to find someone as well. It is too small of a pool for either gender. Men have to be very "theocratic"...at least a ministerial servant and making progress. JW women can be very, very picky.

Finally heard a Dub defend overlapping generations
by Socrateswannabe insince the overlapping generations doctrine was introduced, i have found the jws i know to be uncharacteristically silent on the subject.
i can't remember hearing a single dub try to defend this idiocy.
but that all ended recently.

Not too long after I awakened, I remembered a JW woman mentioning how she enjoyed listening to the new “Kingdom Melodies”. I was honest and said I really did not enjoy them. She said she felt that way at first, but she really took time to focus on listening to them, and eventually she found she loved them.
Of course, nobody can say out loud, “This music sucks!” After all, it is a “provision of Jehovah”, so how can it? There is only one right answer. I think sometimes when someone concentrates on something hard enough, they can find a way to like it.
I remember as an indoctrinated JW being the one giving comments on paragraphs like the 1290 days, or Ezekiel’s Temple Vision being from 1919 forward, ect, ect. Afterward JWs would come up to me and say, “I’m glad you are smart enough to understand that. This stuff just goes over my head.”
Now I realize that the mind tends to reject nonsense. They were the smart ones for not littering their minds with junk, while I was dumb enough to commit it to memory and regurgitate it in my own words.

Do most ex JW's go politically left?
by Lightgrowsbrighter ini've found it interesting that- imho- most of the politically vocal ex-jw's at this website seem to lean left.
i'm personally pretty centered- right on some issues, left on others, but overall have a pretty cynical view of all political/religious leaders.
i find it somewhat ironic that people who leave such a dogmatic group like the witnesses become so politically dogmatic.

I always leaned far left, even as a JW. That just gave me something else to feel guilty about. Of course, I could never express it out loud.
Nowadays, I mainly reserve my expression for the voting booth and leave it there.

Yes, Robin Hobb's books are awesome. In particular, the Liveship trilogy.
Tolkien would be shocked to hear he was "promoting spiritism". LOL.

Watchtower Content Producers Tardy With their Monthly Broadcast. WHY?
by scotoma inhow hard is it to produce a monthly program and get it up on time?
they are late every month.. are these the same people that published 128 pages of magazines by the 1st,8th,15th and 22nd of every month for over 100 years?
are they understaffed?

Some apostates seem more eager for the monthly broadcast than JWs... :)
Not me!

Two Year Delay in Building New KHs - What Is the Real Impact?
by committeechairman inwhere are all these kingdom halls that were going to start being built?
the rbc arrangement was officially announced as an arrangement that was ending in the united states branch territory in a letter on january 24, 2014 (although this letter is no longer listed on jw.org).
this means that 23 months have passed since the announcement of the ldc taking over and "acceleration" of kingdom hall builds.. what has happened in the meantime with kh construction?
