On August 1, Roy Milton, author of Truth or Consequences, is due to speak at Vineyard Christian Fellowship in Downey, California. He was a JW for some 30 years and this book tells about his journey in and out of the religion. Anyone living in that area interested in his story might like to attend and offer moral support. See

Randy Watters began a thread relating to the book and he praises it.
Are they still barking? Seriously though, christians would enjoy it.

talk about his 30 year journey out of the Watchtower Organization and how his wife and adult children came to shun him because he no longer believed that the Watchtower Organization was the "truth", but instead learned the truth is found in Jesus Christ.

SS, ya gnostic, agnostic, bastard you! I remember well the feeling of having found jesus as the sole means to life. It was like a person who feels they learned the "truth" for the first time I suppose. Then.......I remember the feeling I had when I looked into the authenticity of the bible being gods word or not. Lots of emotional letdowns ....and freedoms at the same time. Mr. Satanus.....geesh....I'm still callin ya SS

Holy cheezes, father gump, you went through a stage where you found jesus? I did too. Now that i look back, trying to see what it really was It was some kind of group acting out, or something like that.

Ps, Btw, you can just call me father satanic bastard, if it makes it easier
you went through a stage where you found jesus? I did too.
I even did multi-level marketing! I'm a gullible bastard.
btw.....if you wanna start a religion.....I'll give it a shot, but just once.

Roy Milton is a hero just as many more on this and other boards are.............could you imagine the wonderful readings if all the rest of us could put our thoughts and experiences into words like Roy did? He deserves a lot of credit and all of our prayers (from those who still pray).
Any xjw who can write his or her story is greater than George Lucas or Steven Spielberg ...............our story's are truely unique and NOT fiction. I once heard something like........"fact is truer than fiction" or something like that......(correct me about this) And if anyone can't pray anymore..........just fake it until it is real again!

Oh no no. Much better you start your own religion. It's easy really. All you need to do is buy a van, and pick up losers. Treat them nice for a few weeks, and then start telling them what to do. If they fail you, think up some disciplines for them. Total failures must be replaced.
I read a satirical, yet truthful book on instructions for all phases of starting and running your own religion. I'll see if i can find it.
