i cant believe so many were convinced to go alittle "worldly.

Coming up on three years away from the JWs for me.
No regrets in that department.We all wonder what's next.
Certainly, the WT portrayal of 'paradise' is NOT attractive.
Can you even imagine living in the endless loop of 'listening, obeying and being blessed?'It would become everlasting boredom.

I remember back about 25 years ago, I was trying to witness to my own father. I remember what he said to me.
"I'd rather just grow old and die".

So yes, make your own way in life, do your best.
If there is "something", I suppose it will be nothing as we expected.

Until then, "nobody gets out of here alive"...

I really hope the corrupt leaders, all of them, go to prison for their crimes against humanity.
Could happen...

How Long Does This Religion Have Left?
by pale.emperor inthe generation that will be no means pass away have passed away.. the 144,000 were sealed up in 1935, oh, no wait, we got that wrong, we still have some.. russel is the faithful and wise servant... oh, no he wasn't it was me, rutherford... no, actually, we got that wrong it's knorr... erm, no we mean the governing body.. shunning is pagan, true christians would never do that (1946)... oh, actually, we should do that too.. the revelation book has been re-written.. the un is the satan's visible organisation.. wtbs signs up for fellowship with the un in 1991.. exposed in the guardian newspaper so ends it's fellowship in 2001.. the greatest man book is now obsolete and replaced with another jesus book.. the mags are reduced in pages.. encouraged to use tablets instead of actual books to save paper (money).
halls being sold off.. congregations sharing halls.. society owned buildings being sold off.. video pertitioning for money only last year to fund a new building.. bethelites reduced.. missionaries sent back home.. young members leaving.. long time members discovering the history and leaving.. how long do you think this religion has left?
i cant see it being here in another 100 years.

I see them dropping the religious part altogether and just focusing on the real estate and financial investments.
Actually close all the KHs and branches.So sad.

Is it Time to Declare that The Great Tribulation Has Started ?
by OnTheWayOut ini don't really engage in doctrinal discussions about jw's anymore.
they seem to say some pretty crazy stuff.
but i have read some threads discussing doctrinal changes and how watchtower is really out of ideas and money at the same time.

Jws are in the matrix but reversed, sort of.
by Crazyguy ini thought of this lastnight in light of these new assembly videos.
we have all seen posts about the comparison with the movie matrix but i think it's in reverse, here's what i mean.
the jw is in the matrix and yes are the batteries for the machine but instead of thier minds being all fun and happy and life being normal they are the ones being chased by the machines living in zion and thinking thier going to die at any moment.

I expect the GB will be 'raptured' to wherever the money is being laundered.
Everything will come to an abrupt halt.
"What happened?" will be the only thing whispered as they stare at their recently sold KHs in confusion.

The above would not surprise nor shock me. ( at all )

My way of releasing the pain was to cry like a baby, even though I am a grown man. The pain came out as tears and sweat.
This works. Got to get rid of the pain...

For JW Lurkers
by mrquik inwelcome those jw's who lurk here with the purpose of affirming their religion.
this website was designed for all to express their opinions & beliefs openly.
many exjw's have pursued all different avenues of belief & you may take issue with those that stray too far from your personal ones.

A watcher:
Jehovah's Witnesses taught me how to have a personal relationship with Jehovah and Jesus.
That's simply a fabricated statement.
Nobody can prove or show any evidence of a relationship with any non-human entities.The reality is the Governing Body taught you to believe they are "Jehovah". Imperfect men. Liars. Sinners. Greedy.
Plus, shunning is hateful.
You, along with with all of us, have been deceived.
