since leaving the jw's after over 4 decades, i can see exactly what it is and hate everything it stands for.
however, there are still some jw habits and traits that i can't get rid of:.
1. i can't swear in general conversation (i'd have to be really angry).
I still have a fear of the paranormal. I wouldnt dream of even looking at a ouija board.
The rest is long gone. The difference here is i was a born in gone before i was 18 and thrown in the deep end of "the world" i imagine 40 years in is alot harder to adjust.
Dont worry about black pudding it tastes like arse.
they seem to be rebelling by studying every aspect of the military behind their mother's back.
i tell them to keep their noses clean and become coasties if they must trod that path.
is this par for the course?.

That was very thoughtful of you to say that. And thank you for your work in the hospital looking after the less fortunate ones.
Thats a good comment by stillin, the JWS are very anti anything masculine.
The very reason i was disfellowshiped defends that statement!
was on the bus today and got into a discussion somehow with the driver and ok be ood his work colleagues about whether there's life in other planets, evolution and creation.
the driver believes there must be other life out there, i agree with him that life can't be unique to this planet out of the billions that exist.
his colleague who i think might be a jw by his attitude and reasoning skills thinks we're the only planet with life on it and it was made perfect and exact purposely for humans.
Cofty im already half way thru trading taktillik (i know thats spelt wrong the transition from sea to land-sorry)

Cofty thanks for taking the time to put that together ill check that link shortly.
Everything ive ever seen about evolution has only ever banged on about the missing link and that grew tiresome so i never bothered with it since

Your right its not educated. My knowledge on evolution is limited to documentarys ive watched...i educate myself with things that make a difference to my life instead of something that holds no bearing... Does that make me unentitled to the opinion that i hold?
Unless i see something that convinces me otherwise ill still not agree with evoloution or creation.

Cofty. Because that still dosent explain where we came from. So we evolved from monkeys.
Where did the monkeys come from and the thing they evolved from and so on and so forth....
An explosion? Seems bit far fetched to me.
I dont know where we came from
i have been on the phone the last to two weeks calling people i've known over the last forty years most of who are still jehovah's witnesses.
some of these people who didn't know i was "out" talked to me and some who knew i was "out" still talked to me.
some of the those people are even elders.. by book new boy will be dedicated to all the people who have killed themselves because of being a jehovah's witness or knowing others who were jehovah's witnesses.
Yeah fair one. I didnt consider that.

Is dedicating a book to victims of suicide really that repulsive?

This world is far from perfect for humans. I mean... we cant even live on alot of it.
Ive seen enough.of this worlds horrors to firmly believe there is no god. So thats creation gone for me.
But evolution seems silly to me too.
As for life on other planets... probably! I mean
Why not?
