we're god's reliable mouthpiece, but not prophet?
jesus inspected all faiths in 1914?.
does everyone agree or is it more convoluted than that?.
Yet, the GB just came out and stated they are not 'inspired' and make organizational and doctrinal errors.
The truth is in plain sight, but:
1. dubs aren't looking
2. 'where would we go?'
3. many have their entire lives invested
4. many know TTATT, yet are trapped with threat of family shunning
bad all around~
so i sat and suffered through the clam tonight.. everything was pretty much as dull, repetitious, and simple-minded as i have come to expect, but i was really struck by the mind-numbing idiotic comments made during the part about shunning family.. then came the book study (no real bible use) loaded with self-congratulatory b.s about how wt never has, and never will beg, solicit, or ask for money.
i could feel myself beginning to channel the old tasmanian devil cartoon character as i listened to that garbage while remembering the jdubya tv shows about how more money was going out than coming in and give more.
but finally came the most ironic (to me) part of the entire meeting and i could not help bursting out in a loud belly laugh that got me many dirty looks and heavy frowns.
Wow. Now I want my wife to go to the meeting...
This could wake her up
once i left ,i was done.
in over 10 years i didn't return except for my mother's funeral.
did you ever re enter the kh after you left?.
Never will go back.
Not for my still in wife's family memorials or even hers.
I could never go back knowing what I now know.
I can't even imagine how it would feel to have all the JWs that know me in one place staring at me and shunning. Too horrible to contemplate.
I don't want to see the hate and judgement in their eyes.
i regular pioneered for 2 years and never have actually converted anyone through the door to door work, in fact, i only knew a few individuals that joined this way.
most were born-in or at least had some type of family influence.
i had several bible studies but they all got cold feet when things got serious and potential baptism was discussed.
In 25 years, i found no interest.

After all those years thinking this was the truth and then it all being lies...
That'll mess with you.

I have done some good for myself.
I've become a professional musician and have taken over leadership of a performing Big Band. I'm the trombone player front and center!
a fair bit of time was spent discussing the (one) scripture in the bible that "proves" that when the bible touches on scientific subjects, it is absolutely correct.
this was at the most recent clam meeting this past week.
from isaiah, the reference to the "circle" of the earth.
If you don't have the stomach to research flat earth, I understand.
It's bad enough waking up from The Matrix.
Why would anyone want to find themselves on The Truman show.
Research it! What? You got something better to do?

I had the opportunity to perform on trombone with the local college orchestra on May 17 2015, just before they publicly executed me in front of family and friends.
It was a life changing experience, for sure.

If you haven't seen the production of "Candide", I strongly suggest it to all exDubs!
