My Younger Brother Has Left The Witnesses!! :-D (page 2)

This is great news. Sounds like it's time to try to educate him a little on cult control and stuff like jwfacts. Right now where he is, he's just a personal tragedy and some big world event away from being driven back in.

This is such great news! Thanks for posting. Keeps me hopeful that some of my family will leave some day.

Interesting about the depression- I noticed this before I left. All JWs always say how everyone is so happy inside the org but the more I looked around my congregation...seemed like everyone was on antidepressants or something.

So happy you got your brother back!

Hey PE; This is indeed very good news. Glad to hear that your brother has seen through the org for what it really is.

Its awesome that you and your brother have reunited. You both have a lot of catching up to do.

Pale Emperor, ok. That's nothing new.

Here's a thread from about 3 years ago analyzing that nonsense from the Watchtower, January 15, 2014, p. 30-31, paragraphs 14 - 16:

Overlapping Generation/GB/Doug Sanderson

Apparently, there are actually now three groups of "anointed" ones:

Those anointed before 1914
Those anointed after 1914, but before the death of the last of those in group #1.
Those anointed after the death of the last person in group #1. (See point #2 above)

There's an interesting chart on the third page of this thread that predates the one Splane is using in the video you linked (I wonder if he plagiarized the one published here?). It even brings up about the fact that the WTBTS isn't sure when Fred Franz was baptized! ... LOL.

just fine

So happy for you! I hope you can support each other navigating the ex-cult situations.

That's awesome! Congrats.

If he hasn't already, your brother needs to start learning TTATT. Otherwise, there is a danger he might go back if he doesn't intellectually understand just how far this organization is from "the truth".

I know Londo111. I dont want to overload him with apostasy, because i know once our family find out he's back in contact with me they'll claim im feeding him "apostate driven lies". Slowly slowly.

Stay close to him PE. Depression doesn't magically disappear. He will have lows I'm sure but you can help pick him up. As he substitutes real life for WT servitude he will continue to enjoy life so much more. Extremes tend to lead to disappointment, inside the org and out, so keep an ear open and love that brother to life!
