"Hello from Phats"
by phats inhay out there.. wife got back from her thursday meeting & now she's setteled down with the dog, a v large g&t (maid be me) & watching terminator 2 on the telly with her ipad on her lap looking up places to go for our holiday (& googling symptoms of to many antibiotics as my 16 year old is getting signs of ibs).
so now is a good time to say hello.. well hello.
my name is phats & i'm an ex jehovah's witness.. there, i've said it.. this must be like it is going to your first aa meeting.. i've already used up some of my posts for a newbe but i'm not in to the whole long story thing.. basically i've been out now for 8 years (mentally out for all but four or five of those years of my life when i made the commitment, got baptized & married.).

When I decided to no longer turn in time...
by SG098 inbeing my 1st post i figured i should relate a personal experience.
a few months ago i decided to stop reporting time.
i'm mentally out of this cult now but still trapped because of family.

Welcome to the world of the far-out thinkers and the twisted minds!
Really nicely presented video too, you got skills!
I've had a similar experience where a meeting with two elders turns into a meeting with one elder that confides that he doesn't disagree with me but says they've 'got everything else right, or at least better than anyone else does so we might as well go along with it' ...
Don't you be thinking now .. Stop thinking, I can tell you're thinking, it'll come to no good I tell you! Listen obey and be brainwashed!

Your final WTF? Moment!
by restrangled init was a long time coming for me.....when i read about the extened generations, after being raised on1914 being the be all end all, and millions would never die....that was the end.
i was part of the 1975 fiasco, the 6 month only truth book studies, suffered through a disifellowshipping and their version of a rewind.
i finally am free and hope others can eventually look in instead of inside looking out!

Well said phizzy, I'm only just starting to become a full grown human being. It's a good feeling. I just wish it had happened a lot earlier in my life. Likewisee problem addict, we'll put sir!
Sounds daft compared to all your deep personal revelations on doctrinal matters, but the first time I permitted myself to do a search on here was on Beards!

I know this sounds gross
by Doug Mason inthere is a medical procedure known as: fecal microbiota transplantation (or transfusion).. has the watchtower society identified whether blood is possibly transfused through this process?
if it has, what is its verdict?
if it has not investigated this medical procedure, why hasn't it?.

Something to do with the fact that we've got billions of bacteria in our gut, if they die off, they may need replenishing. Don't get me wrong, it's not as simple as a turd in a syringe, it's filtered and screened and all that but basically it's still a poo injection.

Poo.
Injected into your gut.

My logic and emotions are in a turmoil. Need specific help please
by stuckinarut2 ini am still in, and as my name says "stuckinarut"...now i know it is not the truth, i know it for a fact...but im so messed up with a wash of hundreds of thoughts that i cant seem to get my head in order.. i thought i had my head clear and my 'sh1t together' so to speak....but ..... im sure you know what i mean?
when there are so many reasons and facts proving ttatt, but if asked to make a list in bullet points now, i would get so overwhelmed....i just dont know where to start.
i feel like i would be like a balloon let go flying around the room in all directions trying to 'spew' out the facts!.

Thanks for starting this thread mister, I know EXACTLY what you mean about the constant internal chatter, and the old brain getting flustered when confronted with demands for facts...
Some good suggestions up there, I really need to start creating a file of my own, once you've researched AND WRITTEN your own stuff it sticks in the mind easier. Flipping Teflon skull casing...

Internet Dating - I feel like I am being love bombed again
by KateWild ini am on three or four sites and lots of guys are showing an interest and trying to be genuine.
it reminds me of being love bombed by the jws.
i am having so much fun and loving all the attention, i almost got carried away with it all, until i got a pm on jwn.. i have just been absorbing it all and it dawned on me i am still vulnerable, and possibly not ready to date.

How Pioneering has prepared me for multiple Dates
by KateWild ini have two more dates this week.
keeping track of who is who and showing them a "genuine" interest has been fun to say the least.
i can prepare for each "return visit" in advance and take notes after each date.. so is this ethical?.
-

Sounds like a good plan, although I'm hoping you won't be taking notes DURING the date!
Have fun missy!
