Wow! This is great.
To fine people who feel the way I do. I have felt alone for so long. I have been a witness for 12 years, if you count the time after I lost faith. I remember how it was to HATE the world (not the people in the world but the things they did). At least I tried to convince myself that. What It is interesting that human nature seems to dictate that to love your friends profoundly, one must hate your enemies profoundly. This is what the case is with witnesses. They love there brothers wonderfully, kindly, joyously. And hate the world wonderfully, kindly, and joyously. At meeting today I actually got depressed listening to the watchtower tell of how one must weep over the world and the evil in it. So many scriptures pronouncing mourning and sadness as great attributes. Do we have to be depressed to serve Jehovah. Now that I have accepted and revealed my feeling to my wife, I am not nearly as depressed as I was. I like not dwelling on the terrible things happening in the world. But it is getting better. Yes there is evil but we don't see most of mankind under conditions of slavery as we did during the 1800s with the idustrial revolution. We don't see constant war as was the case in the dark ages. If we dwell on the bad, all is bad.
