my heart goes out for all people stuck in all high control groups, either with insight into the falsehood of their beliefs or none.. to remain a member whilst knowing it false however, must be soul destroying.. my question is, would you carry on living the lie if you discovered that we get one life, one go at existing.
it's short, it's fragile and nobody in 100 years will care we even existed..... .......if you came to that realisation would you quit?.
.......if you had children, would you leave in order to set them an example in strength and appreciation of the short time we enjoy?.
I DO believe we only get one shot, but I'm still staying in for the time being. I've weighed up the pros and cons, and in my opinion the cons of leaving outweigh the pros right now.
I can keep family happy and try to wake loved ones up from the inside, for now. I KNOW it's only temporary though. Losing my patience..
here is an idea i tested.
works at both assemblies and conventions.
i have noticed at the last convention and at my last assembly that when i opened up my wifi setting, tons of hotspots came up for people tethering their tablets to their smart phones.
Is there a tutorial online for using an older android phone as a hotspot, but securing it so that the only thing available to whomever connects is crisis of conscience or other documents of our choosing?
this case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.
this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!
this case shows thier evil plain and simple.
Goodness me this is exciting. There is NO GOOD REASON to drag your heels about protecting the vulnerable. Plenty of bad reasons, but no good reason that I can think of..
Did anybody else think the number in this quote was kind of apt?
DISPOSITION
We order the court to vacate: (1) the portion of the January 2 order requiring Watchtower to produce Lösch for his deposition; (2) the order granting *607 terminating and monetary sanctions;
this case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.
this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!
this case shows thier evil plain and simple.
Do we know officially WHAT the documents wt are withholding actually are, what the court has asked for?
so i recently had the opportunity to hear seth andrews speak in person at a local unitarian universalist church.
for those of you who know my past, i've had a bit of a difficult time dealing with the emotional aspects of a fade with a wife that says she believes but doesn't put forth the works that demonstrate that faith.
we've kind of been in a rocky point in our relationship because we've both been afraid to test the waters on where each of us stand.
Brilliant!
This type of thing is ALWAYS good to hear.
Well done.
on this episode we introduce the ranting xjw redneck.
we discuss mlms and sexual repression.. greetings from neo and ava!.

Love the podcast, keep it up, and thank you!
it really stands out to me just how phoney the bonds of forced brotherhood are.
the smiles are paper thin when they see each other in hotels.
the laughs forced.
I felt the same about the elder tag. And at our convention today they've started introducing the speakers as 'convention coordinator and elder in such and such congregation', or 'branch overseer and elder in bethel', even more drawing attention to their titles.
so my 14 yr old son and i are sitting discussing the eu election vote, and joking around that the we could see a future with donald trump and boris johnson being the uk and us leaders.
we were swapping pictures and jokes from facebook.. but his dad is sitting there waiting until we leave, and comes out with "well daniel 2.44" which reads.......... "and in the days of those kings the god of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be brought to ruin.
and the kingdom itself will not be passed onto any other people.
Hahaaaaa, lol! Great picture, I'd love to share it but it could be the final straw that breaks this faders back, and I'm doing this on MY timetable.
there's simply no way to honestly deny that the ot condones genocide, slavery and misogyny.
there are too many passage showing yahweh commanding his people to wipe out this nation and that nation - women and innocent children included!
it leaves us with a god who wrote a book that very, very, very much seems like it condones genocide, but it doesn't, etc.. what kind of god does that?
Brilliantly articulated. Thank you..
so britain is leaving the european union (eu).. the governing body of jehovah's witnesses have over the past year moved the majority of its european activities to the control of watchtower britain and the ibsa primarily because of britain's membership with the eu.. further, the incorporated pseudo-political lobby group, european association of jehovah's christisn witnesses, based in brussels, is administered by watchtower britain and its officers.
.
expect major changes in the structure of watchtower..
Isn't all the printing going to Germany anyway? Maybe wt saw this coming and acted shrewdly.
Oh no, you know how this is going to be spun don't you? By divine revelation wt moved their operations to Germany JUST before brexit. Must have been Yahweh.
