  I doubt he is PIMO Morph. It would be nice, but I doubt it.

  His wife was the bitch who started the gossip chain off about me several years back, and actively told jw friends who were following me on Instagram to block me. (Not that I care)

  Ah...this is funny!

  My Instagram is set to public . I have nothing to hide. I often post stirring posts that might be taken as digs against the religion. I also just post stuff about my life in general - not related to the religion. I have lots of fellow exjw followers, and I follow lots back. (Some from this very forum!)
  

  So about a month back, I posted a picture on my Instagram account showing myself, jwfacts, unstuck and wake me up before you joho when we got together to watch the new Apostasy movie.

  I've posted quite a bit since then.

  So on Sunday, I got a "like" on that post from one of the elders in the congregation we were in! We know him well, but he has never been a follower of me, nor do I follow him. So he has obviously been stalking my account, and along with other elders, must be seeing what I'm up to! I reckon he has ACCIDENTALLY pressed "like" while trying to magnify the pictures on that post! He has not "liked" anything else from me...just that ONE post.

  So I had some fun with it! Instead of ignoring it, I posted a comment back to him on the public post:

  "Hi @________. Interesting to see that you're following my account and "liked" this post. Hope you are keeping well😀"

  No reply from him.

  So what do you all think?!

  I heard the case of a very faithful sister who just this week approached her Circuit Overseer and said "I dont think that the Society's child protection policies are sufficient"

  His reply?

  "I Do" and walked away.

  So, it seems that the Society and it's representatives take this matter very seriously. (Sarcasm alert)

  How were God’s true worshipers to determine virginity of pagan girls?

  by Ireneus in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in the genocidal instructions supposedly given by god we find this interesting command: “now kill all the boys.

  and kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man.” (numbers 31:17, 18).

  in the midst of killing and plundering, how were the israelites to determine whether each girl “has slept with a man” or not?.

  So disgusting!

  It is amazing that we EVER thought that these sort of biblical things were acceptable!

  A new podcast episode, and a new book by an ex-JW

  by dubstepped in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  a new podcast interview, and a new book, on episode 15 of the "shunned" podcast.. .

  jason grew up in amish country but was raised in the cult of jehovah’s witnesses.

  this story has cars hidden in the woods for a getaway, living on boats, time spent in rehab, a jw group of “lost boys” that were dealing drugs, just your average story of leaving a cult.

  Is it an apologetic film that justifies the JW decision to refuse blood?

  Or does it condemn such behaviour?

  COs demand the same inane adoration that the leader of North Korea does!The crowds of "adoring" people stand clapping for him, (knowing full well that the first to stop clapping will face punishment!).

  No different with COs! If JWs do not gush and fall with adoration at his feet, they will be looked down on by others!

  Laugh at his "jokes", put up with his food alergies, his demands etc....

  Cart work faces headwinds.

  2. scandals

  my little bethel bird has whispered in my ear some encouraging news.

  it has been reported to the canadian branch that some witnesses doing cart work had police stop them from carting in public parks.

  the direction sent to the southern ontario congregations is to cease carting until further notice.. this is no joke.. have a jw-free day..

  The hardly ever do the cart work in the centre of our town anymore. (it used to be right near the centre intersection where hundreds of people would pass by)

  Now they just set it up on some deserted walking / bicycle path where no one really passes by! They sit under the trees enjoying a nice day in the park!

  Forgiveness

  by Freedom rocks in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if someone does the same things over and over again and says sorry and then does it again and you point out that their apologies don't mean anything anymore, then they accuse you of not being forgiving enough, who is in the wrong?

  (i mean as in constantly over a long period of time).

  im trying to work out whether it was just part of the persons mental/ emotional manipulation tactics or whether i have the wrong view and i'm not forgiving enough.

  Learning to define appropriate boundaries is a vital step in life.

  If such appropriate boundaries have been overstepped, this is a warning sign that the offender lacks respect for you.
