  So, my wife and I are at relatives for Christmas for the first time in our 18 year marriage and 25 years for me.

  
  

  No Armageddon.

  Dodged that bullet.

  Also saw the movie today with the wife.

  Still digesting, as we have known her for about 15 years.

  She's in the film as a cameo.

  Older woman sitting in the background on the park bench.

  
  

  We attended the bookstudy and meetings for service in her home.

  With her daughter Jane, too.

  She never told us anything about how rough her life was.

  After Six Months of Hiatus, I can tell you the Watchtower is Starting to Crumble Faster than you think!

  by SanLuisObispoTruthSeeker in

  2. beliefs

  i took a hiatus from jwn because the wall started to collapse because i lost several people ive known almost my entire life.

  these were people i thought would never die, the lies told by the watchtower is unforgivable!

  there was a party i attended keeping a low profile while documenting what was said.

  From 1 to 10, how do you rate the value of the Internet in your awakening?

  by Hidden-Window in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as we all know, the internet is a real game-changer in allowing us to know the truth about the watch tower and its history.

  i always had doubts and it was the internet that presented me with the ever-growing number of individuals who were going through a similar struggle.. i give the internet a 9 in my awakening.

  what about you?.

  I knew I needed to hit the road before I searched the internet.
  The research was like slamming the door behind me.

  So, a 10.

  Any previous times I've doubted my decision to exit, the internet tunes me back up in about 5 minutes.

  Illegal immigrants in the organization?

  by silent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had a thought today that might prove interesting.

  i'm wondering if there are any illegal immigrants who are witnesses?

  surely it would be a great position to be in as an illegal immigrant because you could play up your plight and prey on the sympathies of others within the congregation.

  my husband just won the city wide holiday light display for christmas i am so proud .

  just a few short years ago i was the one that put a strand of white lights around the porch railing ,and a couple of lighted deer in the yard ....that brought the elders around real quick (after three years of silence ) at that time my husband was still holding onto the notion his faith was not bond to a cult .

  it didn't take long after the 'loving sheparding call' for him to see things in another light.

  life after the wtbts

  by Hortensia in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  you can't move forward to a new, more interesting, possibly much happier life, if you're still looking behind at the former life.. there is so much obsession on here about what the wtbts is doing, and discussing all the forms of injustice and bullshit in the wtbts, or how to bring down the wtbts.

  yes, their doctrines are crazy and they are a cult and cruel to boot.

  move on.

  These stories must be told.

  People are leaving and they'll need comfort like we did.

  Always good to check in and offer something if possible.
