"Thanks for the thought" - how the religion robs people of normal humanity

by stuckinarut2 in

so as you all know, my wife and i are not officially df or da.. a small event happened this week that i have to share!.

a family that we were really close to (dinners and catch ups several times a month , go out socially often, play sport together, helped them through tough times, like uncle and aunty to their kids, etc).

the wife's father died.

I feel most people who are converts who came into this cult are looking for love and stability in their life's. Those who are born-in's only know cult love. In both cases the idea of showing love to one another is wrap by cult teachings. How could anyone have a healthy outlook on showing love to one another when one of your basic beliefs is everyone on this planet is going to be killed by the god you worship? The us against them mentality this cult has cultivated has caused a thinking where everyone in the organizationis is even against each other. This is why the jw's religion robs them of their normal humanity. Anyway that's my thought on this subject. Still Totally ADD

My JW Elder Brother Passed Away

by minimus in

jw
friends

he was basically a good man, just a believer in the religion.

when we were both elders we were best of friends and then things deteriorated when i was not an elder for a while.

then after becoming an elder again, i slowly drifted away from the religion and he drifted further away from me.

Last Sunday on 60 mins. TV program they had a segment on this. It's only in the beginning stages but the one thing I did glean from it was if true it will become a multi- billion dollar business. Again it's not about helping people but more about making money. But it is amazing what they may be able to do. Still Totally ADD

Think about this! All the signs of the last days from Matt.24. That jw's point to, happened in the 1st half of the last century!

by nowwhat? in

and now it's 2018 and we are still here.

that's like saying back in 1930 the events of the civil war show we are in the last days!

it has now been that long!.

Still Totally ADD

I think I would like to have been around in 1799. Lol. Some how the steam engine was part of the sign of the last days at one time for the wt. With that thinking are we not in the 4th century of the last days? I had often wonder when I was a kid how writings from 2000 years ago applied to us. It would be like we could predict what would happen to humans in the year 4018. Still Totally ADD

Support groups to assist individuals to leave high control groups such as Jehovah's witnesses

by UnshackleTheChains in

just watched ' one of us' on netflix about individuals who are trying to leave the hasidic orthodox jewish faith group (a high control group within judaism).. i found it interesting as those who rebel or leave are virtually ostracized from their community.

the documentary is an eye opener into their highly insular community.

one of the things i thought interesting is that there is a support group called footsteps to help hasidic jews wanting to leave the strict insular way of life so that they can move on with their lives.. this got me thinking.

All good information. We are using some of this for our little X-Cult group. We have 5-6 in our group. All from different backgrounds. I have learned that all cult's have the same M-O also it has reinforce my thinking I was in a cult. It is good for all of us to research this. Still Totally ADD

So let me get this right about what your saying about Jesus!

by nowwhat? in

jesus the non judgmental man who ate with sinners, fed the hungry, showed compassion for the poor, and who wanted mercy not sacrifice is the going to be leading the charge out of heaven with fire in eyes and out for blood.

killing 99.9 % of all men, women and children on earth.

because they didn't heed some obscure religious group that hadn't gotten one bible prophecy right in almost 150 years?!

Still Totally ADD

nowwhat that is a very interesting point you brought out. I never thought of it that way. I guess it's do what I did not what someone said I will do. Thanks for a new way of thinking. Still Totally ADD

Craziest Speculations You’ve heard about the end and paradise

by Addison0998 in

we’ve all heard them all our life.

my two biggest stupidest ones i think are, “ we can really tell the end is almost here with the way people drive on the highway.” and a girl who said she wants to hurry up and marry her boyfriend because she’s scared if the end comes before their married, she’ll have to wait 1000 years to marry him.

oh and also a poor old lady saying that she hopes jehovah wipes away the memory of her disfellowshipped sons that he will have to destroy.

Still Totally ADD

I remember out in service we was talking about the big A when a sister in the back seat said god will destroy everything except shopping malls. We ask why will he leave them alone and she said because where else will we be able to go shopping and relax. Everyone in the car just was speechless. Still Totally ADD

Rejoice cos God's tent is.... Disintegrated by a cat 5 truth storm

by Normalfulla in

just had to share... a former friend of my wife's, has just left our house, unbeknown to us, her and her husband have been inactive for about a year and a half, they have pre teen boys too.

she reached out to my wife as she had heard that we were apostates etc and needed someone to talk to.. .

after her father dying she was in a bad place mentally and emotionally and reached out to her cong for support, apon receiving 0 she turned to the bible for comfort only in her raw emotional state to realize that jehovah was a murderous unfair god and then her wheels of rational reasoning started turning.. she questioned things and was outspoken about things and attracted elder attention... long story short she wanted to connect with a friendly ear and she splurged she's never going back, the bible is all bulls**t and it's a cult, despite not knowing most of ttatt we all shared experiences and watched her eyes boggle at (stuckinarut... the first euphoric high) the un scandal, beth sarim, ray franz, 607, arc.

Thank you normalfulla for your experience. Very similar to what we went through. Absolutely no support from our so called friends. To them it was more important to go to a Dist. Convention than going to my father funeral. It was less than 20 miles away. The hard reality of the cult. Still Totally ADD
