    Do you not realize that that advice is asking us to become hypocrits? How can we be expected to perpetuate our own lie, pretending to be good little JW's and then go out in Field Service knocking on doors, trying to preach to and convert unsuspecting householders to those lies?

    i was thinking the same thoughts how could one lie to folks, lie to the kids and pretend like the org is correct, man this guy has some serious character issues

    in my view what we see is the mindset of Maintaining the "IMAGE"

    as this poster commented in his early post the wt has tried to maintain and image or appearance and here he is now recommending stay in the org despite knowing what we know just to maintain the Image and then he attempts to wrap that package in "Well it is cause you love your family"

    even after leaving the relgion this poster is still concerned about imagine, a characteristic found among jw as well as others who are concerned more about appearance than being honest and real

    I've read this thread as long as it's been active and I've kept my mouth shut as long as I could. I didn't think people like "Smelly" deserved any type of response. However...

    This thread has become extremely redundant. Almost every poster (myself included) has tried to justify his/her feelings to a very callous piece of crap. This Smelly guy isn't worth the effort. He began this thread with little regard towards anyone's feelings, essentially calling everyone here a big baby. Later, he seemed to show a little contrition, but since then has made comments like this:

    "many could have opted to endure the lies of the WT in order to stay with their families. Yet many of you opted to leave the org and thus your families. So in truth your hatred of the org is greater than your love of your family."

    Ever hear of FREEDOM, Smelly? Ever hear of living a lie, Smelly? Ever hear of integrity, Smelly?

    "You would rather leave the org and never have your family because of doctrinal jibber jabber than be with your loved ones."

    Jibber jabber, Smelly? How many JWs died because of not conforming to JW doctrines that were later changed? How many families were torn apart because of changing WT dogma? Manipulation, deceit, death? Is that jibber jabber to you, Smelly?

    "In truth how much do you love your family?"

    This is how much I love my family, Smelly. I have children who are completely indoctrinated in the LIE. They are totally cut off from me, because they follow WT mandates about disfellowshipped apostates. One day, they will have children who they will raise in the LIE. One day my kids will learn the truth about the WTBTS. At that time, if they are true to themselves, they will have to leave the Borg. Then, THEY will be cut off from THEIR children. It's a fucking lie, Smelly, and it perpetuates itself from generation to generation, destroying individuals and families as it goes. This is how much I love my family, Smelly. I will do everything in my power to stop it here, before it goes any further. I probably won't be successful, but I'm going to do my best.

    You can go to hell, Smelly, for belittling what I and many others here have gone through. Go back and live the LIE.

    Personally smelly,

    You really ought to crawl back under that rock you slithered from. You never know when someone/something might show up and be demonized. You are not following the WBTS directions very well. I do believe that they more than discourage being on sites like this one. Not being a very good JW, now, are you???

    Where I grew up at, this would get you an elder's meeting. Why don't you go find some of the real JW sites, where someone might give a shit!! I'd tell you to go to hell, but, it seems you are already living there!!

    Well thanx for your time. I have truly learned alot from all the posts. It has been truly an eye opening exchange to say the least. I am leaving on a trip to Asia and wont be back for 2 months. When I do return hopefully I can pick it up where we left off. My deepest apologies to those I hurt once again. Take care to all and goodbye for now.

    Maybe you can find yourself a nice Asian JW girl while you are there.
    Hope mom & dad let you hang out by the pool at the hotel once in awhile.
    Don't hurry back.

    Smelly Onions,

    Many on this forum can't conform to the WT's high moral standards, so of course they'll use whatever they can to justify their own messed up behavior.

    I just read a thread of a couple them describing their drugged out stages, with pictures and all.

    Then, of course, these are the same people that are ever so ready to blame the WBTS for all their misery.

    GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!!!!!

    Hi DY, getting ready to go. Where they happy about that? What was the reason for that behavior?

    I just read a thread of a couple them describing their drugged out stages, with pictures and all.

    Like you said that's what its all about. Sometimes having an authority figure is good, I guess, if this is the end result. I once posed a question at carm.org whether they would prefer that a person be a jw or a drug using serial rapist. The responses were unanimous for the rapist. I wonder how would people respond here.
