  Taking responsibility for your actions

  by dustyb in

  something i realized this weekend at the circuit assembly...there are too many people that blame jehover (tm) for how they grew up, or blame satan for all the problems of the world.

  why can't everyone just grow some balls and take responsibilities for their own actions?

  something that i always read on this forums is frankiespeakin's threads on how jehover (tm) is a false god or doesn't exist, or solely created people to piss on.

  its the stupid quacks (WTS in this case) that you were sexually abused.

  I wasnt, but I know some who have been. I dont blame Jehover because to me there is no god. I just understand how some can blame him/it.

  if you think "Jehover" is a myth, then quit blaming him for your shitty life and do somthing about it.....

  What if some dont think he is a myth. What if ones parents were to die, and that person prayed and prayed, who do they blame Adam and Eve?

  If someone were Sexualy abused and their life turned out shitty what do they do about it? Do they need to blame themselves?

  I can see in this thread if some might feel that being called a misfit or lowlife was offensive, but maybe that was just a bad choice of words, as I am sure it was not meant in that way.

  LyinEyes you make a good piont. Thats how I feel.

  I am a misfit. I am not a lowlife.

  "Misfits"Hey bro props at the after show
  Can you tell me where the greenbuds grows?
  I'd like to say you turned my life around
  
  I lost myself outside again
  With the sound running through my head
  Drowned out way out in the crowd
  and the crowd goes singing
  
  My people are the misfits
  The ones that don't fit in
  With the smile I know it comes within
  I can feel you in the corners laughing when the lightings low
  
  They say
  Tick tick. tell me where the time goes
  Oh life, you know it moves much to slow
  Tick tick tell me where the time goes
  The misfits, the freaks, the enemy, you and me
  
  
  My people are the misfits
  I won't let you down
  I'm dizzy from whatever we just passed around
  I bleed for the moments when we're here
  And we're all around

  Had trouble posting

  The hall I went to had windows. I hated sitting next to them because I was afraid someone would drive by and do something bad.

  It also provided a distraction for me. During the metting I would look out the window and daydream about being in a band.

  Jehover is to blame. Its not the childs fault that he grew up isolated, unable to interact Its the fault of the God his parents worship.

  A woman cant blame herself for being angry and depressed because she was sexually abused as a child by a parent who was protected by an organization that her parents believed in.

  You cant take the blame for everything that goes wrong in your life. I believe people can change their lives for the best and make differences, but if I blamed myself for everything that went wrong over the coarse of 12 yearsof being in the troof, then i would be more depressed than I turned out to be.

  If I took your comment wrong I appologize Dusty, I am dealing with my own emotional problems today.

  .

  is it only the book studies i've been to or is it tradition to remove your shoes when going to a book study at someones home?.

  i always have to remember to make sure my socks don't have holes in them.

  I noticed that homes with babies and new carpets in them ask that you take your shoes off.

  In some they would have hard wood floors so they didnt care.

  my wonderful husband knows that i have been a religious person most of my life and while he despises jehovah's witnesses with a passion, he knows that i still believe in god and christ.

  he being a greek orthodox and a wonderful human being he bought me a beautiful crucifix of jesus on a cross.

  it is black stone and silver and says on the back of the cross, alpha and omega.

  A lot of Christians wear crosses around their necks. Do you think when Jesus comes back he ever wants to see a ******* cross? It's kind of like going up to Jackie Onassis with a rifle pendant on." Bill Hicks I agree with that. I wouldn't wear a cross, let alone a crucifix, if I was a Christian.

  Sounds like something I used to teach to bible studies...........

  Yes I would.
