As a elder many moons ago you can't believe how many people came to me for help on their twisted thinking on sex. Thanks to the twisted thinking of the sexually perverted Borg. Still Totally ADD

Governing Body trying to control marital relationships
by Whynot in4 years ago during the circuit overseers visit he asked a rather innapropriate question from the platform.
i say it's innapropriate because i think it's wrong to tell happy married couples how to love each other and much more wrong it is to tell them they should love their children less.. he said: "mothers, who should you love more your children or your husband?
" i think most mothers will quickly say you should love your children more.

JWs and Guns.
by blownaway ini was told shooting guns and collecting them was not something a jw should do.
when i lived way up north us it was more of a deer hunting group and so some guns were ok, when i moved to florida it was different.
most people in the hall were not hunters.

blownaway years ago in West coast congregation in FL a group of elders would go out to the Rockie mountains and go hunting for big game. It would cost them a fortune to do this yearly event. When ask why they would say they did it for the meat. Since all of them were well off it made no sense to me why they did this but to get away from their wives and families for a week. I also remember their was some complaints about brothers going fishing. All of this was overlooked by the CO and other hogher ups. I figured to each his own on this matter.
Living on 10 acres in a swampy area of FL you needed a gun for all those water moccasins crawling around. Lol. Still Totally ADD

The only reason the Borg hated Star Trek was because their future was more realistic than the Borg. Still Totally ADD

Has anyone started a support group for people leaving cults?
by Whynot inmy husband and i have talked about starting a support group but we feel we don't have the proper qualifications.

About six months ago Mrs. Totally and me saw the need to start a support group. We have about five of us, all with various cult backgrounds. We soon realized they all claim to be the true religion with a different name but all had the same M.O. as a cult. My advice is do a lot of research before starting one. Still Totally ADD

Are Jehovah's Witnesses selfish??
by stuckinarut2 inis the average jehovah's witness selfish and self-centred?.
i know, i know...many will object and say "no - preaching is the most selfless thing a jw can do.
it saves others lives...".

As a jw if you are in need of food and no money you are told to go to the local food bank run by a church. If your mate or a close love one dies make sure they don't die when a convention is taking place. After all going to a convention is more important than going to a funeral. If a elderly one in your congregation is sick and needs help makes sure they call there adult kids first to get help. Remember field service, meetings, convention and all the busy work the Borg throws on them is more important than showing love and helping someone else. Still Totally ADD

Being taught to explain rape when a kid
by purrpurr indoes anyone else recall in the 80s/90s that when the minor/child blood issue was discussed the jw children were taught to say that being forced to have blood would be like rape?
and then had to be able to explain what rape is?
apparently there was a court case were the drs were trying to get a court order to force a blood transfusion on a jw child, and the child said it would be like rape to her and the judge asked her to explain what rape is to see if she understood what she was saying.. that went round my cong at least as a "fine witness " and all the parents were encouraged to have their kids practice the whole "explain rape" thing.. anyone else remember this?.

The wt. has never vauled life. Front page of the wt. pictures of children who die from not taking a blood transfusion making them martyrs. Sexaul abuse of children is bad but we cover it up. Women need to stay with their husband even though he beats the shit out of you. Children going out door to door by themselves being subjected to some very bad people. Finally they teach thier God is going to kill everyone on this planet except them.
Yes I do remember being instructed to teach our children how to please their case not to have a blood transfusion. Still Totally ADD

Very funny about being carded at your age. It's because here in the U.S. we age faster so we may look old but we may be only 18 years old. LOL. Take care. Still Totally ADD

Anyone pissed at their parents for raising you in the cult?
by blownaway inmy mother was not the most emotionally stable person.
she was a follower and instilled in me the idea we were better than those worldly people.
its hard to go to school as a child and you can not be friends outside of school, you can not celebrate any holidays, and you are told all these people are going to die.

Not pissed but i wish they would have found another way to have saved their marriage. They were both throw away children and they needed structure in their life. As a cult the wt. was able to give them that. All the way to the end of my dads life he would offten say to me if it wasn't for finding the truth their marriage would not have lasted. He was very proud of that fact. Even though I went through a lot of abuse in the cult I am not mad at my parents for raising me in it.
But I have in the past beat myself up for raising my kids in the cult. Any anger from them for being raised in the cult is very understandable. I just wish I would have woken up earlier in my life. I can't change the past but I can be there for my children now. Still Totally ADD

People are nice and life is awesome.
by OneEyedJoe ini got invited as a +1 to someone's house yesterday to watch the fireworks.
i'd never met the hosts, and it seemed that most of the people in the group only knew one or two other people there.
yet i felt more genuine friendship from everyone there than i ever felt at any jw gathering.

How true it is. Last night was our third annual get together with close friends to watch fireworks. Just good conversation, food and fireworks. Not once since I have left the Borg has anyone that I know tried to take advantage of me. Unlike what I experienced in the borg many times. Actually we talk about tight pants and pillows and how Cults are sex crazy. Lol. People for the most part just want to live a peaceful life. Only the us against them mentally disease Borg thinks otherwise. Still Totally ADD
