hey guys.
a friend online asked me about my recovery and how i managed to recover relatively easily from watchtower indoctrination.
although i think a major part of it is acquainting oneself with information about the watchtower and it's history, a lot of it (for me at least) was an inner game.

officer james givens has served with the cincinnati police department for over 26 years, but has never quite experienced anything like this before.
he was sitting in his patrol car in a parking lot when he got an unexpected visitor.
a goose came up to his car and started pecking on the side of it.
Oh wow....how amazing!

i cant believe what i'm hearing... actually, nothing surprises be about this cult anymore.. didn't they say to the judge in the arc that they dont discourage college?.
Well now, the GB can't have witnesses getting an education...they might just "think themselves out of The Truth"!
we just realised that everyone has had it wrong!
the bible even got it wrong.. noah didn't build an ark that stopped in one place.
no my friends, it was actually more of a shuttle ferry that had multiple stops on its journey.

Noah didn't build an ark that stopped in one place. No my friends, it was actually more of a shuttle ferry that had multiple stops on its journey.
That is why we have such animal varieties around the world don't you know?
Now, as rare as it is, we managed to find a summary of the trip:
"Welcome aboard all You animals...now please find your seats and make yourselves comfortable...it's going to be a long journey...please keep your feet, trunks, fins, tails and paws inside the ark at all times, and please refrain from eating your fellow passengers"
(several months go by)
"Hello passengers, this is your captain Noah speaking. We appreciate you choosing to travel with us. We know you have a choice in ark travel, and we appreciate you choosing 'Noah's ark' service"
"now our first stop will be the island continent of Australia. All kangaroos, wallabies, echidnas, koalas, platypus, and red back spiders will be disembarking via the forward gangplank."
" Next stop is Africa. All wild cats, merekats, elephants, zebras and giraffes are encouraged to leave in an orderly fashion."
"Next stop, the Galápagos Islands...all misfits and oddballs are welcome to leave us here"
i was born in the religion but why on earth do people join this religion?
?.
Low hanging fruit.....easy pickings.....
The society openly acknowledges this behaviour by encouraging going after those "who are sighing and groaning over the world" etc... people who feel weighed down...people who can't get themselves out of a paper bag...
this is my second topic here.
sorry for this biiig post.
i would like to tell you guys about one of the things that bothered me most, despite of being something quite simple, but since it affected me directly, so.... well, being a ministerial servant, i knew the bad view the jw in general have towards beards.

Well done.
The real problem is that you dared to ask questions!
You dared to THINK for yourself along non approved lines.....
loyalty—part of the new personality (s-341a-18-e 5/17).
note to the circuit overseer:.
use this outline for the tuesday service talk from september 2017 through february 2018. you will need to prepare your own 30-minute service talk for use after the watchtower study.
jP1692: It's no different really then how the Hitler Youth would get children to turn on their parents.
Well said sir!
Excellent comparison
i come from a catholic background, but most recently had been with the churches of christ.
i have contacted my local congregation and will be talking with someone tomorrow, hopefully setting a study up for next week.
i want to study scripture, but also want to immerse myself in everything jw publishes.
The JW.org religion does an amazing job of turning people AWAY from any form of faith in a divine entity (God)
2 for me 1 from my old congro in the 80's and another that was in the same circle of friends.. karter..
I wish! I have thrown out enough clues...and some in our area of the world have awoken I believe...but perhaps they are not on this forum.
However, I have made some great new friends via this forum!
