  As opposed to how Newly Interested Ones - RUSH to Midweek meetings?
  

  What a JOKE!

  Just OWN that no one but Born-Ins come to meetings, and its hard to even keep them coming!

  "Get Over It!"

  by The Bethelite in

  this is what my children tell me... get over the whole jehovah's witness thing!

  yes, they tell me they have gotten over the whole thing and they tell me that and i need to also.

  my exgirl friend who was raised as a jw also has said the same thing.. my children say they got over it, however they are quick to point out how messed up their lives are now because of no college education and other missed opportunities.

  Do You Think “Higher Education “Is All That??

  as jehovah’s witnesses, we were regularly told how awful a college education is.

  i’m no longer associated with the religion but i am not so pro university.

  it’s not because i think you are better off without a degree.

  I am so career limited because I did not get a degree. I can't get hired for what I should be at this age for my line of work.

  And I have to admit - rightfully so.

  Not having a degree, also meant that I was not able to climb the ladder in my profession the way it should be.

  I always relied on "someone knowing me", or a contact, or really just going it alone.

  I went to county college, but got so much pressure to leave, I never finished the first semester.

  I wish I did.

  I find it interesting ,that those who characterise higher education negativity, for the most part have not attended university.

  I find it quite predictable really.

  I tried my hand at Brain Surgery, by my lack of a degree kept me from getting my foot in the door.

  Bastard Liberals!

  LongHair - I get that for sure.

  But remember those really in today are so averse to looking into anything outside the WT for information.

  The fear campaign is higher than ever.

  Then you have lots of people who cant accept that their entire life course could be challenged, so cognitive dissidence sets in and they are living with that.

  For so many its TOO painful to open the door even a crack, because the fear that their whole world would crumble.

  I was not to far away from that myself when I started to wakeup.

  Remember we were victims as are most JWs today.

  "Yes brother, we knock on door after door after door. No one invites us in. No one wants to study the bible with us. We cant get anyone to come to meetings. When we set up a Table in a Mall with our literature, people avoid us like the plague. And the only ones who ever come to our Carts are exJWs who want to make fun of us.
  TRULY Jehober is blessing our work, best life ever ever ever!"
