What happened inbetween?
by freedom96 ini used to ask my elder dad: what about those who lived inbetween the bible days, and when the witnesses started?.
the wts teaches that no one will survive unless they are a witness.
they may dance around that issue with a "wordly" person, but, that really is the way they teach.. so we have the people talked about in the bible, and then we go until the very end of the 1800's.

Some Old Bethel Wisdom
by metatron ini survived years at bethel during a period of great tension - there were lots.
of nervous breakdowns and people suddenly leaving because they couldn't take it anymore.. one lesson that i never forgot is: watch out for the self righteous types - they're.
often the first to flip out.. the rest of us complained and got drunk - chased tail at witness 'get togethers'.

Blessings, Superstitions ..and Bull$**t
by metatron input down your new world translation.. stop quoting your time- worn texts.. look at your life, for god's sake, mr. average witness!.
all this obedience and constricted living is supposed to get you blessings!.
i simply gave up - both as an elder and a long-time witness.

my story
by nelly1 in.
well i tried to do this yest and i lost all of it, :( lot of typing lost, but oh well, i would welcome feedback from anyone who has been through similar things to me, i got the truth 13 yrs ago, and i never felt like i was wanted not really, i was with a man and had 3 kids with him when i came into contact with the witnesses, but he was a pedophile so i found out and had been doing things to our kids since they were born, i ditched him, he walked from 2 high court trials, and no one in my cong cared abt me, they didnt want to know.
said it was in my head, anyway, i struggled for years i hated going to conventions and being ignored by my own cong, it was just me and my daughter on our own all the time trying to serve jehovah, i didnt feel happy but i just wanted to please my god and i just tried my best, i always felt left out and i was never asked to do demos at the hall, its like they were just putting up with me, i was always pulled in for stupid things like the messages i put on my answerphone cuz some stupid stuck up old sister didnt like it.
