WT Power is not good.
by Pepper ini used to really belive that jehovah was directinng the writeings of the wt, but now i see he does not.
they are just like all the rest, their in it for control of the masses and by that control they have influnce, influnce builds numbers numbers builds power; and power corrupts, and too much power like they have corrupts absolutly".
even now i feel their leanings of control even if i don't want it; its a fantasy world that is hard to break free from, because they dump guilt on by useing the scripture for their own means so thick and heavey it could for some people put them over the edge.

Memoral time kids...... anyone going?
by Pepper ini don't about you all but being raised a jehovah's witness was so ingrained in me that going to the memoral seems the right thing to do at this time of the year.
so i for one will do it for no other reason other than i was trained that way, and of course i like the song they sing its touching and i am a big sinner lord have mercey!

Being a Jonah
by Pepper inso many times during the frustrations associated with my brain injury i often asked in brief whispers what is the right religion and please what is truth.
the feeling of being scared has been echoed in my mind untold times.
i used to have a strong belief system and upbringing, now i am a mirrored image or reflection of the man i used to be before my brain injury i don't know what happened to my faith, i guess it just hopped on the wagon of self incrimination along with everything else that was happening around me.

Being excommunicated:
by Pepper inbeing excommunicated: .
as a witnesss unless you have been excommunicated you cannot possibly imagine what it is like upon your self-image and esteem not to mention the destructive affects on your family life.
then again to many jehovahs witnesss they longingly want to return to those who inflected this punishment on them, out of any number or reasons.
