"The little one becomes a thousand" The "ingthering" is speeding up!

by stuckinarut2 in

heya all!.

over the last few months i've been doing a lot more support work with people who are waking up and exiting the "truth" .

i'm part of a team that receives on average 10 new emails, messages or contact through various means, from ones who have just awoken to the realisation that they have been in a cult!.

Yes, those figures are per week. I help to answer and respond to emails and messages received through [email protected]

All involved with this team have a wonderful focus on helping people to recover and live a happy and successful life. Despite all we have been through, it is beautiful to be part of a truly selfless and supportive worldwide team.(this doesnt even take into consideration the dozen or more FB messages etc we receive each week...)

We provide a soft landing place, a hearing ear, and assistance directing ones to the help and support they need. Perhaps putting people in touch with others in their area who they then can meet up with, or even to enjoy the benefits of the modern age of technology where we can be in touch with people the world over by means of our phones and computers!

Groups like jwsurvey, and groups like this amazing forum community are just so vital to help people who are exiting the religion! I am so very appreciative that this forum exited when I first woke up, and that it helped me expand my outlook and know we were not alone.

But, whatever form of support or activism we can all personally be part of, don't hold back! Keep it upbuilding, dignified and positive - and peoples lives will be affected for the better!

Heya all!

Over the last few months I've been doing a lot more support work with people who are waking up and exiting the "Truth"

I'm part of a team that receives on average 10 new emails, messages or contact through various means, from ones who have just awoken to the realisation that they have been in a cult!

The emotions, and stories that they share is often so heartbreaking, and intense as we all can imagine. But, it is also liberating for these ones to learn "The Truth About The Truth".

Of particular note is the success stories of ones who have woken up, and played a very patient and careful game in order to slowly help their family members also start on their own journey of awakening.... as we know, this needs to be done very carefully in order to avoid the "rebound effect" if too much information is dumped too quickly onto them.

So I just wanted to share this so that it can encourage us all to keep doing all we can in our own forms of activism and in our spreading of Jw awareness. Keep it up!

The results are coming in - people's lives are being saved!!

Be Bold Circult assembly

by Rattigan350 in

at the 2018-2019 be bold circult assembly yesterday.

yes, curcult, change the i to an l. because when they have 2 demonstrations about youths not going to university and another talk says for adults at work to be bold and refuse birthday treats being given away, it shows so much pettiness and lack of real concern for the people.. i was actually looking forward to the ca because a week before tornadoes went through our circuit and passed 2 miles by a kingdom hall and less than 1 mile by another that had meetings that afternoon.

i was expecting the circult overseer to give a report on it.

There is sadly never any variation from the scripted material...for fear that some brother may say things that are not approved by the GB

OK, We Need To Talk About The Crazy New Great Tribulation Video...

by pale.emperor in

if you haven't seen it already, skip to 1:14:30 in lloyds video and watch the craziness unfold.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2y7f7-k5wo.

i'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this.. they're digging themselves a great hole here, in about 30 years time they'll be claiming this video was a mere "speculation" and that "some people" got the wrong ideas..

Fear mongering at its worst - and they are proud of it!

"The messiah" was to come from the "line of David" right??

by stuckinarut2 in

a huge realization hit me the other day while listening to a podcast that discussed the "lineage of jesus".. according to the bible, "the messiah" was to come through king davids lineage.

but, if you wade through the entire chapter of matthew that lists "son of ...son of...son of...etc", it becomes obvious that jesus did not come through davids line at all!.

in fact, that lineage lists jospeh (mary's husband) as being in davids line.

In fact, that lineage lists JOSPEH (Mary's husband) as being in Davids line. Yet he supposedly had nothing to do with Mary's impregnation - as that was done by "Holy Spirit by Jehovah" before Joseph ever had relations with Mary! (if you believe that)

(PS, that's another point too - Mary never gave consent, and so was effectively raped by Jehovah)

So, somehow Jesus is supposed to be from David's line - But it was only via his STEP FATHER Jospeh.

Yes, this use of "donated funds" is just preposterous!

OK, I know this forum isn't exactly friends with JWSurvey, BUT...

by Vidiot in

...this, imo, is just too good to pass up:.

https://jwsurvey.org/news/watch-tower-sues-facebook-mark-zuckerberg-for-contempt-of-court-demands-daily-fine.

this bit especially made me laugh:.

stuckinarut2

Yes, that is a great article!

Now that WT is being exposed as the petty animal that they are, perhaps their arrogance may be knocked down a bit....hopefully....

Beware of divulging any personal info on this site!

by Crazyguy2 in

hey this is crazyguy, forgot my password so this is my new name.

anyway be sure to all you new ones that if you post any personal info on this forum or respond to pms asking for email addresses this information maybe able to be used by wt spies to try and find out who you are!

someone has recently pmd me asking for my email address or more accurately to respond to his email address which would give him mine, this maybe an innocent request but this person also has no posting history.

stuckinarut2

Yes, John, my situatoin was also just like that you described above for Pale.emperor....

Watchtower Trolleys With Added Bling

by cofty in

my wife and i were in edinburgh on saturday (did a ghost tour) and around dusk we passed two trolleys on the high street — aka 'the royal mile' — that both had two rows of led lights under the little shelves.

has anybody else seen this or is it a local innovation?

i'm happy to report their pimped-up trolleys were attracting no attention as usual.

stuckinarut2

Maybe they can turn a cart into a Poker machine?

Spin and see what "prize" you come up with, or just see if your life gets screwed by the outcome instead...
