Did you look like a Jehovah Witness?
by JH inwere you ever told that you didn't look like a jehovah witness?
i never dressed like one of them unless i was at the hall.
i think that people looking at me would never have guessed that i was a witness.

What are the rules the WTS pharisees have burdended JWs with?
by berylblue inin another thread, mini questioned why the wts does not see that the gb and elders are like the pharisees.
what do you all think are the "rules" jws have been given that smack of pharisaical (is that a word?
) burdening and/or hypocricy?.

how i got here
by danb71 inafter having looked at this site for almost a year and recently made small replies to threads, i should introduce myself to you all and tell you how i got here:.
i was raised as a jw.
it didn't take long to figure out that to have more independence at home, i'd better be a stand-out jw.

Theft of Identity from the Borg
by Yizuman ini had a thought for most of the ex-jws who spent most of their lives in the borg.
for those who left the borg, has anyone stopped and think, "who am i really supposed to be apart from the borg?".
have you ever wondered what your life would have been like if you had never been a jw?

The WatchTower and Higher Education
by Maverick inrunningman's post on the fallacies of the watchtower reasonings started me thinking on the gb's stand on higher education.
i am impressed with the superb thinking ability of many who post here.
unclebruce, stephanus, victor_e, gamaliel, blondie, undisfellowshipped, and machislopp to name just a few.
