how the Watchtower shit cult has ruined my life!

Ya well they did if you stay in and keep pretending to be a good dubby. They didnt if you cut the strings and start living now.(or soon, whichever the case may be)

We all need to vent RedPill! Glad that you got it off your chest man! (and yes, I did read it, sorry!)

Anyway, what's important is that you realize that the WTS is a CULT! They have ruined the lives of many people and destroyed many families. You can't change the past, but you can certainly live for the future. Do your best to enjoy life now and get the most out of it while you can.

First welcome RedPill!!!!!!! You do have the right to vent, you need to get it out of your system. Sometimes writing also helps. I also was in for many years and a pioneer for 10 years. What a waste, but now I can tell you that I really have a good life.

I went back to school in my 40's, and now have a very good job. I have to tell you pioneering gave me many skills that I now use in my work. Sometimes finding even the smallest good, can make it seem not such a waste of your years. Good luck Red we are here for you.

mouthy

Never ever get in the mindset that it's too late. You're still young yet.

I agree with that above. Please dont think your life is wasted. You can use your knowledge & info to save HUNDREDS!!!! from joining this cult. Maybe God has plucked you out to help uncover wickedness, I felt so bad when they kicked me out, but since then I have been used to stop many from killing them or themselves
If you have been an elder then you must have believed as I did ,it was the truth. God has allowed you to see the LIE....Thank Him & KNOW HIS love has rescued you.
You should KNOW if you tell an anapostate NOT to read....WE WILL.
We done that when we were in BONDAGE now we are FREE

zack

I was an elder and pioneer, too. A TRUE believer. Sucker is more like it......

Welcome. Stay a while. I'm still livid over the crap of this man-made belief system.

Live well. That's the best revenge.

Your vent helps many realize that they are not alone. Some other posters have made good suggestions. I like Gill's. You can expose certain aspects of the WTS Corporation. Many of us would like for you to exploit it. Being an active elder gives you some access and leverage.

Just don't get involved too much procedure-wise. It will sap your energy. We know that you are mentally out. If you believe in God and Jesus, just treat your fellow members in the congregation as Christ would. Keep the dangerous fanatical Pharisee like ones away from you. You don't need them. You can still be a refreshing person to all you know, at home, work and in the neighborhood.

When I find that many people who are frustrated and depressed about being a JW is when they are following men and men's rules/traditions. No wonder why Jesus felt sorry for the people who were under the yoke of the religious leaders of that time.

To feel better, exercise some. It does a world of good.

I can relate to this post. My regret is that I didn't have the courage to walk away a lot earlier in my life. I felt I needed the organization for some reason. I was born into the JW religion and I looked around at the family members and others so loyal and I was surrounded by child abusers, backstabbers, cheaters, liars. Finally you realize it robs you of life and you have to slowly build yourelf a new one.

You do have the ability to have alot of interesting conversations on micro tape of what is going on high up...to be released to those being led by these people at a time of your choosing...keep that in mind.

While it may be unadmissible in a court of law to secretly tape privite conversations......in the US you can play them to anyone you choose to share them with....even an entire congo.......

Pretty cool when you think about it....revenge and helping/freeing people at the same time.

I sometimes consider myself a agent who works for the people or customer base.....cause when you get down to brass tacks.....they are the boss of your boss...only he has forgotton that. And I am sure he would not appreciate his boss reminding him of that by firing him when you tell on him.

You have a choice to make.
