    Because the Jehovah's Witnesses, whom it seems are forbidden by the GB from using spellcheck, provide me with shit-tons of material to use in my daily amateur stand-up routine.

    And because it's habit.

    And because I love you guys and gals.

    I post here because I have both visions and literal discussions with my lord baby Jesus. He tells me that everyone has his name wrong though, and that i should come here and tell them to pronounce it Jehiccup Micaca. I speak only the truth that my lord tells me in the reality of my mind.

    A master over Christ

    Anarchy to you all!

    yes flowerpower... another forum to shit on the organization.

    i post because i found out 10 years after CHOOSING TO LEAVE at the cost of all my friends and family in the JWs that it was all lies.

    Lies lies lies. Fake fake fake.

    Total bullshit about them having the choice to leave...nobody 'makes them' get baptised etc.

    I post to stay up to date, i have two kids to save from a life of servitude to a bunch of out of touch old men. To save them from a life of servitude to a phsycopathic printing corporation.

    why do you post flowerpower?

    Do you post here just because you share a like-mindedness with others who post here?

    I love the community here - a smorgasboard of everyone with every belief (or non-belief) out there - and I care about the people. I learn a lot being here, and I think I help people sometimes too.

    I post here because I want to be part of a community that knows the pain and grief of being a former JW in a way that no-one on the outside can. It's good to feel understood and not feel so lost. I have friends (and fans?) here that I would have nowhere else on the internet. The pepole here are caring, compasionate and more real to me than they would be at any other kind of internet forum and I can't help but care about them. It's wonderful to connect with X-JWs (and the conscious class still on the inside) whom I'd never meet in real life otherwise. Being around here is a hell of a lot of fun too! For some weird reason, people here really appreciate my random warblings and humour...

    I post here because it helps. This is a damaging organisation that affects people in a very profound way, people who have spent years in faithful service have also been programmed to be judgemental and suspicious of others, socially awkward and full of guilt. It is a huge burden to bear and people need to know that there are others out there who truly get it.

    For many of us the organisation we got baptised into turned out to be a lie and over recent years the change in doctrine to increase the prominence of the GB and explain why the end appears delayed has meant that in order to be a good JW you have to abandon Bible principles. The Bible encourages research and questioning. It discourages dependance on men and yet that is what the organisation preaches and enforces. When everyone you know in your life tells you that to question is wrong and that you are wicked for criticising then you need other people to give you some perspective and help you find the answers.

    Flowerpower I truly pity you your judgemental stance is pure JW. Think what is is about this organisation that makes faithful people so bitter and what is is that causes people to be willing to sacrifice 40 years of friendships for a principle?
