hi there folks.. i took a bit of time out from the forum, however i'm back again.. what was it really like for you, your experiences good or bad, etc, in the org?.
if you were granted a listening ear by the gb, what changes would you like to see implemented?.
Totally strips you of any sense of self and your only purpose is to be "quiet and mild" while you "support arrangements."
I'd say the only difference with a male is he can "reach out" if he qualifies iow jumps through hoops for the BOE, but, that in itself is an illusion of power and control as men too are subject to the same rules and following direction to become good little soldiers for WT.
Sucks all round for men women and children but in different ways.
would love to read this book one day and give it to my mum and brother who are both in the organisation.. so many people i see on videos claim that this book was the nail in the coffin.
but do you know anyone where it had no effect on them?.
COC effectively confirmed what I had already suspected.
so a friend today asked me what his deal is and i honestly don't know.
i saw someone post about his accusations that the doj is investigating watchtower and people seemed down on the guy, as well has johnny the bethelite or whatever his name is that claims to leak stuff.
i don't know rick fearon, don't watch his show, but his site just seems a little crazy, and he seems to get into occult conspiracies and the jws, which never lends credibility.. so for those of you who have been around a while, what's the deal?
Aww, I miss Eric JWstruggle too he is such a great interviewer he would have been a much better choice for Leah Remini's program I think.
I alo think six screens and RF serves a purpose for many.
from bbc news "five jw's from the kirov region detained with about $ 7,500 accused of funding and organizing meetings....they found literature...and two hand granades and a landmine".
the russians are such idiots planting evidence....and quarrelling with the neutral and sheepish jw land...and of course inflamating their persecution complex.

Oh I meant to say don't worry Orphan Crow I know you're not a commie (ROFLMAO!) So I won't blacklist you 😆😉😃

Haven't watched/listened to very much of RF at all. I did visit there when first waking up but being embarrassingly green when it came to websites, forums and social media I found the site confusing to navigate so went elsewhere. I'd have to see and hear more for my self before I formed an opionion of my own about him.
Suffice to say different strokes for different folks and all that but I get the feeling he appeals to maybe an older gen of JWs.
one of my very few jw friend rings ( he knows i’m an apostate ) and has chat about life, then he said i would be sad to here that his son has been df , my response was it’s the best news i’ve heard all day.
his family are first generation jw of about 30 years in org.
but the scales are falling as we speak, i use my most genuine persuasive arguments over months, his wife loved coconscience.
Yes, news of a disfellowshipping is good news to me too. I'm not a fan of tiptoeing around someone's Jehovah delusion as it's exasperating and exhausting and only seems to enablle their addiction not wean them off it.
It's good you keep persevering with ttatt chook.
one of their mothers burst into the jehovah's witness church in swansea and publicly accused him of being a paedophile only to receive a letter from solicitors warning her not to harass.
judge geraint walters...described collins as a "devious, arrogant and self-righteous man" who had lived behind veil of respectability partly through his contact with the jehovah's witness church.

Well, he won't need to worry about her harassing him now he'll be kept safe from harassing mothers in prison.
sarcasm intended obviously 🙄.

as youread through its 22 chapters and meditate on thebeautiful illustrations found therein, you will beamazed at all the careful research that has goneinto its preparation.. they call themselves the faithful and discreet slave, but how discreet is it really to be constantly bragging about yourself?
Lol, I think you're right steve, good call.

Funny how cults and sects don't like being called a cult or a sect and they get really pissy at the thought of competition from some other cult or sect.
Go figure.

On a side note Geoffrey Jackson is looking more and more like a Bond villain everyday.
