Consperiacy or am I seeing things?

by dogon in

my wifes family has not really kept in contact with her after we left the cult.

i am the main reason but she never was a strong believer she just went with the flow as to not cause problems.

she has not heard much from her mother since the death of her brother 3 years ago.

JW. org: "No, we are not a cult. We do not look to any human as our leader."

by Faithful Witness in

i know this has been rehashed, time and again, but i saw this interesting blip on jw.org last night, and did a little thinking about it.... jw.

org answers the important question that so many have... are jehovah's witnesses a cult?.

jehovah's witnesses do not look to any human as their leader.

"We are not a cult."

and Ye doth protest too much.

New congregation accounting system

by thedog1 in

i'm sure i read a thread here about the new congregation accounting procedures.

i ask because i handle the accounts in our cong and in our part of the world the new accounting system has just arrived whereby local congs do not have their own account any longer, but all funds outside of basic monthly costs is forwarded to an account controlled by the org.

this is causing huge confusion in our cong as we have to work out how much we need to keep back for monthly costs and the new idea is that you send all your extra cash to the org and if you need it back you can ask for it but we don't know how easy or hard it would be to do that.

joe, don't beat yourself up over anything. These guys duped a lot of people. Ambient abuse makes people crazy over a long period of time and you begin to doubt your own judgement. These guys are pros at ambient abuse.

JW's Parked in front of House doing Returns, Not so good Feelings.

by Shanagirl in

ugh, i saw them this morning, 4 of them piling out of the car in front of my house and going to a few "not at homes" across the street.

it brought up a lot of uncomfortable feelings in me and especially seeing a former friend who's partially related to my husband's family thru marriage.

i saw her out the window staring at our home and it gave me the creeps.

I'm talking to myself here when i say. Let sleeping dogs lay.

If you got away from the POS cult....Let it go if you can.

Take a deep breath and thank your lucky stars that you are free. Be grateful.

Argument with my Child "Why did I stay in the Organization so long?" Anger and Bitter Feelings.

by RottenRiley in

jw
friends

last night my third oldest child wanted to know why we stayed in the organization so long.

child is a third year college student enjoying all the classes this "wicked system" has to offer, the insatiable appetite for learning makes him want to argue and debate, i don't have the energy to debate because i don't feel good with all life has thrown our way.. .

"the only reason i went to meetings so long was because grandma and grandpa needed somebody to take them to meetings and cobe aunt and uncle and secretary aunt and uncle refused to talk to grandma for years, otherwise i would have stopped attending the kingdom hall because the kids were assholes and i was always the one who had to make "first contact", "i was the one who had to go around and meet and greet newbies while the regular jw wall-flowers (calebs) ignored all the visitors and new persons visiting our kingdom hall.

>> How doI go about explaining i was truly tricked by the Cult. <<

You just did.

It's the past man. Don't beat yourself up over it.

Live your life by example. Make it up to them in how you live your life. Express your joy, your pain, all those things that make us human....

One mom, half a dad, and at least three friends lost... But at least 4 lives "saved" from WT mind control... 400 to go

friends

so... i have just posted a link to freedom of mind and the bite model on fb.... .

i am gonna take a snapshot of the # of friends on fb and the ones i have after i tell people privately that i don't want to be a jw anymore..

WhoYourDaddy

This is a vicious self serving POS cult. You can't leave the POS cult with expectations to do anything other than save yourself. IMO.

If you love ambient abuse. Stay in the POS cult. Don't throw yourself on the grenade. Don't be that guy. Be the guy that saves himself.
