Please read if you commented on topic re:FDS/BS- meeting elders-BACKGROUND
by AWAKE&WATCHING inmy situation is a little different than most.the only family i have in the borg are my in-laws who don't care much for me any way.
while my husband has studied off and on for years and is currently attending most meetings, he has never felt "ready" to get baptized.. i was in the truth (gag) for 10 years, went through a bad divorce from an unbeliever and disassociated myself , i was depressed, worn out and felt guilty for not being able to keep up with the "do more" bs.
i still believed and blamed myself.

How The Organization Hooks You With "Privileges"
by minimus inright from the beginning, you are bombarded with others telling you what a "privilege" it is to "be used" in the organization.
especially if you're a male, it is easy to get hooked by the elder's lines.....for example, a male is given the "privilege" of "handling the microphones" if they put in enough time in the ministry and they aren't setting a bad example.
if you're "faithful in what is least", greater privileges await you.

A Jesus Fish-Bone: The Life and Experiences of JCanon
by GetBusyLiving ini just thought i would start a thread wherein we could get some background info on jcanon without any of the end times predictions.
just want to get a feel for who this person is, what type of environment helped mold his world view, and what his likes and dislikes are.
whatever your opinion of him you have to admit that he's a character.

Jehovah's Witnesses Who "Get" It
by minimus ini think there are many that understand that alot of things are bullsh*t. i think they know that the "truth" is not everything it's cracked up to be.
they recognize that many directions should simply be ignored.
