What absurdities stand out to you now that you've left the MADNESS??
The idea that God allowed his creation to be thrown into chaos, evil and darkness to prove Satan was wrong. What a stupid thing to do, and what a stupid thing to swallow?

Yeah of course it is stupid.
But is it any stupider than "invisible holy spirit dwells within me"? "Jesus lives in my heart, and in the hearts of lots of other people too"?
As I've noted many times, JWs have no monopoly on stupidity.

Theocratic Sedition: Oh my mom (who's a dyed in the wool JW) always says to me that I never made Jehovah real to me. My response was "If I have to make something real to me, chances are it was never REAL to begin with."

Religions used to make their gods real by making idols. That's what jehovah needs. Put him on top of a watchtower.

Maybe all those demons being cast down to earth is what is causing global warming.

How about.....that there is a small group of wacko JW's still alive that have convinced the other wacko JW's that they belong to a special group of wacko JW's numberng 144,000 who will go to heaven and rule over all wacko's that believe this wacky theology.

I converted in 1968 at the height of the 1975 madness. Despite the fact that they made a serious error in date predictions, I never stopped to evaluate whether this indicated I might have hitched my wagon to the wrong horse. Even when "this old system of things" dragged on and on, I didn't question anything. It took a personal crisis to make me sit down and wonder why I was still a Jehovah's Witness. It suddenly hit me that everything was a lie, there was no proof that that anything that been predicted was going to come true. There was nothing special about this religion, in fact it was a particularly harsh and unloving one. It was wonderful to finally be free, but why didn't I see it sooner?
