My introduction and confession

by elderINewton in

jw
friends

well another big bad elder here just wanting to say sorry.. i'm sorry that so many were treated like crap, and shown that god's love is not to be found around jehovah's witnesses.

i'm sorry that inadvertently i've likely taught many to judge and as such see that racism permeates every corner of the jw world, else why else would someone be of the world, or even inactive.

i'm sorry i sat in on a jc, and voted to df.

So one of the elders kids told my son she is not going to college, but will pioneer. my son told her he is going to college.

by goingthruthemotions in

he said she gave him a strange look.

i then explained to my son that her father has no degree and barely provides for his family.

he works like a fool, .

i have told this elder that our kids are going to college. both me and my wife agree on this.

i explained to my son that in order to live a comfortable life, you need an education.....i also explain to him that what he hears at the meetings are lies and that he need to reason for him self that if what they are saying makes sense.

i could go on and on. i just wanted to share this with you all.

i hate this cult....worst mistake i ever made in my life.

my wife also know how i feel about the cult. i have become apathetic....i just don't care

about organized religion. I still believe in Jesus and believe he is my savior and my LORD.

i still go to the meetings with her sometimes and she doesn't go has often has she thinks she

should. but, she is not has spiritual has she thinks.

i truely hate this cult and wish she would open her eyes...but, no chance. she refuses to

see it for what it is.

Something that my devout JDUB cousin said...

by yogosans14 in

jw
friends

we used to be so close before she got heavily involved in the jw religion.

she actually got me into it (i actually believed all the nonsense) and i went to meetings with her and everything, we were like brother and sister.

she lives in texas now in a remote area where their is no cell phone signal or anything with her dad and mom (i think they said they moved their to get closer to jehovah which is weird).

i feel just has you do yogosan14....i hate this cult. i won't classify it has a religion. it will be the ruin of my marriage.

BORG choke hold on my wife: what brand of indoctination is she? fear of armagedon or looking forward to new lion in paradise

by goingthruthemotions in

first let me preface my statements about my wife has such: .

she is allowed to believe what she wants and however blind .

and brainwashed i believe she is....she has her rights..

First let me preface my statements about my wife has such:

She is allowed to believe what she wants and however blind

And brainwashed I believe she is….she has her rights.

Now for my take: she is one of those born is witnesses who

Will never question the BORG. Just rolls with the new light and

Believes the watchtowel and awake are just has viable has the bible.

She know nothing about the bible and nothing about the history of the

BORG.

Example: just tonight I was partially asleep on the couch the rest of my

Family was just relaxing watching TV. So she said….it’s time to go to bed to

Our boys. And she said she wanted to say a prayer, normally I would do this

But, she thought I was asleep. So she proceeded to pray, I just wanted to listen

In.

She prayed to Jehovah, asked to be more theocratic (whatever that means)

Ask to watch over those being persecuted in jehovahs name ( Huh? Thought it was jesus….hmmm I missed the bulletin)

Pray for only Jehovah witnesses out there doing the preaching work.

No, mention of jesus….just at the end to say…I approach you in jesus name.

It took a lot for me not to say something about how off base I thought she was,

But, it’s not worth fighting over anymore. She will never wake up.

I guess my question is this:

She was born in to this cult in the late 60’s.

Spent the 70’s and most of the 80’s being brainwashed

She faded prior to meeting me….which was around 87’

Started again ~ 2008. If you were to categories’ her brainwashing

Model. Where is she stuck, that she can’t see it for what it is?

What brand of brainwashing is she, since she was active during those periods of time?

i do believe each period of time your in the BORG there is a special kind of indoctination

base...especially since the doctrine changes sooooo much.

Is there hope she will ever wake and see the BORG for what it is….a CULT.

IT SUCKS BEING MARRIED TO PERSON WHO LACKS THE SKILLS AND MENTAL ABILITY TO

THINK OUT FOR THEMSELVES AND BE HER OWN PERSON.

ISIS has there own flag to right?

I find it hard to believe that Terrence Howard isn't awake.

by Island Man in

for those who don't know, terrence howard is an actor who has had some exposure to "the truth" and has spoken positively about the jw religion in a past interview saying he would become a jw if he could.. i've started watching wayward pines where terrence howard stars as the town sheriff.

there are some striking cult parallels between the show and some facets of jw cult culture.

~ people who try to leave wayward pines are subject to punishment.

goingthruthemotions

from what i understand is this.. one of his wifes was a jw. he studied a little bit, but has a serious smoking habit. he said in an interview that he believes the basic doctrine of the dubs. but, can't give up smoking to commit. subsequently his marriage ended. i thinks he was abusive, not sure.

but, remember...that doctrine has changed quit a bit. so he may not believe anymore. just like all of us saw through the scam of the WTBT$.

WT Society Makes Light of Child Abuse Crimes by Portraying them as Cartoons

by flipper in

i commented on this on another thread- but i believe this has enough importance to create a thread about this situation in and of itself.

at the current district convention as you know the wt society released a " sophie & caleb " video allegedly warning parents about the dangers of child abuse.

they don't really use the words " child abuse " in the video - but just say if " someone tries to touch you in a manner you aren't comfortable with " and portray it as a cartoon !

goingthruthemotions

cartoon teachings for a cartoon cult religion......i straight up tell my kids what kind of people to look out for. i show them the people on the sex offender list and show them they look like normal people.

i tell them not to trust anyone, especially witnesses.....my wife says the same as me.

if they do get approached or touched to come to us....i will let the local police know....i will persecute and if it is happening and i catch it....I WILL TERMINATE THE SORRY EXCUSE OF A PERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!
