Have you ever stopped to consider that the best thing we can do for ourselves as recovering cultists is simply to move on? I know that is impossible for some, as they have deep connections with the organization due to family. But for many the best move is simply to refuse to let the JWs occupy much of our time and energy -- mental, physical and emotional. That being said, perhaps this forum reaches a state of maximal benefit for ex-dubs and then the returns diminsh so much that we are hurting ourselves by dwelling on the past.
Personally, I'm through. I've had enough of this religion and deconstructing it, throwing mud at it and laughing at it only elevates it to an imaginary importance which it really does not have. It's a pathetic belief system which is dead in my mind. It harms me not. The opposite of love is not necessarily hate, but indifference. From now on, I choose indifference.
Thanks for the support over the last year and a half, but it's really time I move on. No, this isn't a "goodbye" thread as I might pop my head in every once in a while. But the whole Jehovah's Shitness thing is getting old, no matter what side of the fence you're on, and I figure I only have a few decades left on this earth. I've got work to do.
Be well all.
