  Update again

  by Akid48 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i don't know if anyone remembers me on here but i'm here to do an update again.. well, i'm 15 going on 16 soon i still remember watching my first video on youtube and learning that all the jw teachings are false and everything that follows.

  crazy times, i have chosen to just focus on school and just trying to be a kid well a teen now but you get the point.

  i'm not really mad about all the jw stuff i've come to accept that i couldn't have done anything to prevent it i was born into a family that was already into the religion.

  Good for you AKID48 .Well you certainly have set yourself a task on a lot of reading .I think cofty here could give you some good advice on what to read first regarding the evolution topics taking in your age etc.

  As far as C.O.C or 1984 ,before reading those if I could make a suggestion I would reccomend "Captives of A Concept" by Don Cameron download by LULU if memory serves me correct I think its brilliant.

  I wish you well on your journey through life ,to wake up about TTATT at your age Theirs no telling what you can accomplish

  2. friends

  brothers and sisters associated with the watchtower society may 9, 2020. i have tried to inform you of the necessary adjustments you ought to take in order to truly be in the truth.

  but my efforts have remained fruitless.

  you well know the biblical procedure.

  today is the 75th anniversary of the end of wii in europe.

  they were a special generation who were literally prepared to give their lives rather than submit to fascism.

  millions paid the ultimate price.

  Lettice Curtis was the best British female pilot of the Second World War. The first to fly a four-engined Avro Lancaster bomber, she was the most skilled of only 11 women who ever passed the test to do so, and the longest-serving of the 168 who plied Britain's wartime skies as members of the Air Transport Auxiliary.Aug 11, 2014

  That photo reminded me of these brave young women .

  I have been associated with at least 5 different cong.`s in my 32 years as an active JW. And I would say that at least in 3 of those cong`s I would have struck at least one of them and maybe even 2 at any one time.

  Maybe in the first 2 cong`s being then a newbie to the religion I was naive enough not to recognize them as such.?

  posting for brother x. petra!.

  if you were a child during the years of 1960 to 1970, the question isn't; do you remember these conventions?

  the question is; how could you forget?

  I thank the Cosmos I wasn`t dragged up into this religion as a child ,sadly though I brought up my own two boys in this religion and at least it was a lot more flexible and liberal congregation that they were subjected to .

  And thankfully they are now well adjusted adults leading successful lives away from the religion.
