Wow! I wish I'd had a friend like you to talk sone sense into me!
I guess now I do. .
ABibleStudent: My friend right now is in a very delicate situation and I just don't want her to go on to a site, like wikipedia, if WTBTS has just added their own tweak to a Wikipedia page to make themselves look like God's angels in the flesh........Since I've known TTATT, I've seen a few posts by others on here showing how some of the Wikipedia pages were changed to make WTBTS look better than they are. They were changed back but for a short time those lies were still there.
Between my parents and I when we were learning TTATT and doing all the research, we kept everything we found as hard copies...we have even noticed how some damning things about WTBTS have a tendency to disappear.
Like I said my friend right now is on the fence, she can see the lies from WTBTS but she is still going to meetings. I am encouraging her to do her own research, but I'm doing it in a way to where I'm being careful to.
I'm sorry, it's hard for me to explain how I'm doing it :) I'm just being very patient and cautious, I don't want to spook her and cause her to run back to the JW's.
I'm glad you are a college graduate biblestudent was this before or after WT? I'm just curious. I went to college as a JW, but man did I get hounded for doing it, and I was "subtly punished" for it, but I'm so thankful even my ubber dubber strict JW parents encouraged me to go to college. I think those critical thinking skills I learned while a student is part of the reason I was able to see the lies being crammed down my throat.
Peace!

Hi Capitan Blithering:
I think I missed welcoming you to the forum. Welcome!
Well I don't have all the answers, but when my parents and I learned TTATT, the first 6 months was nothing but studying and relearning everything. And even now we are still trying to relearn some thing. If you ever need any help or have questions about anything, please PM me. If I don't know the answer I can maybe at least point you in the right direction.

You're a great friend, and NICELY DONE!
You didn't do a terrible job, you did a great job except for one mistake and I really hope that mistake doesn't get you a poke in the eye from the bOrg.
Can she use a WTCD? If she can, you can get her using that to find the incriminating statements you are referring to.
I wouldn't be advising a newly awakened one to research the thing she is trying to escape. It has the potential to draw her back in, it's very powerful
I found it hard myself , mentally.
What gave me the most strength, that put the nail in the coffin, was the whole je-hova Ba'al thing
Vomit
*lost*, because it worked for you to wake up, you think it might work for others too, to wake up. You are right. Your given possibility to wake up is proven now. I hope you go on with your research on the je-hova Ba'al thing as it is one possibility of many to wake up and I am sure it works for others too.
Jen - they know something is not right, they know something is wrong.
they are going crazy, cos they can't figure it out. why would they. It is such a deception.
But they know somethings wrong somewhere.
There is no painless way out of the bOrg *lost*. Researching the church documents independently is much better than just getting your enlightenment from both Elders and apostates and should be encouraged.
Oh well Blacksheep I'm not losing any sleep over my supposed mistake.
