So far I've managed to keep service time to a minimum and I don't put my hand up to comment at the meetings and already certain ones are distancing themselves or not talking to me at all, I have to laugh!

I wonder if they think I've commited a serious sin well sorry to burst their bubble I haven't, well not yet anyway lol.

I find it funny everything is measured on what they see, but yet I have too but my faith in 8 guys who I don't know or have never met, too stand a chance of everlasting life.

There was a part in the watchtower this afternoon saying we should be thankful we are 1 in 1000 of people in the world who have accurate knowledge, give me a break.

It's funny how so many JW's seem to be oblivious to Matt 7:1 - "Stop judging that you may not be judged"

The constant judging that I faced & the unhappiness + frustration which I felt as a result of it was a key reason which contributed to my fade

We were shunned when my husband was an elder and I was a regular pioneer. It's all a social group. Those who have money are excused for not getting enough time in.

I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.

One brother I know calls it the Ed Sullivan religion. It's a really big show.

Thats why the WTS/JWS has obviously made itself a pretentious lying corrupt commercialized fraud, since its inception as a religious publishing house !

If it is God's Will that all should come to accurate knowledge that NONE would be destroyed, then he sure picked a lousy PR group to handle his biz. Only 1 of 1000 -- totally unacceptable.

Why is only 1 person out of every thousand a witness? The usual answer given: Because Jehovah focuses on quality, NOT quantity

Oh wait... how many in the cong can you say are people of VERY GOOD QUALITY??? Many are miserable, down-hearted, tired-out & weary, drained & exhausted, not at all the "happiest people on earth" that they claim to be! Depression / mental disorders are widespread. Congs are full of people who are self-righteous, judgemental, quick to condemn others but oblivious to their own wrongdoings. Sex-abuse cases are rampant but are covered-up, with little or no action taken against the perpetrators. Are these people of QUALITY? Certainly not!!!

Oh but you have committed the most evil of sins: You've posted information that is critical of Jehovah's organization - and on an "apostate website", no less! LOL

Outward appearances indeed!

That is the VERY core of WT world!

That is the very reason I was deleted as a ministerial servant.... I was told that I was not seen out witnessing with the group, and was not answering enough! And that my 'personality' was not as 'happy' as before...(that one is true...cos I cant not fake it pretending to lap up all the crap spewed out at meetings and around witnesses!)

Yep...I kid you all not....
