It's been my experience that ALL of my non-JW friends and family were supportive and considerate when I explained I was under cult mind control. My non-JW friends have been with me this whole time. The JWs were quick to discard me when I broke loyalty to WT.

Apologizing to my non-JW friends
by pale.emperor inyesterday i bumped into an old friend from my last workplace.
he's a gay man and we were good friends along with a woman from the same office.
although i was a jw at the time, i would go for the occasional after work drinks with them, blackpool funfair every year and the occasional cinema or theater.

Publisher death nail.
by Chook ini have done this exactly as quoted more than once.
i ask elder if it's better to hide serious sin or reveal, of course we know the answer.
then i ask them to explain elders book page 38 paragraph 19, which say it's sometimes ok for elder who has committed immorality and has kept it secret to continue serving as elder.

Maybe this will be part of the, "do anything we tell you, even if it's crazy" request coming from the GB.
"Drive extra miles in life endangering circumstances as a show of you loyalty..."
( I thought they cancelled the home bookstudy meeting to save costs of fuel )

So much for leaving the 99 and going after the one.
Wolves in sheep's clothing.
"Love amongst the brothers", MY ASS!!
Such a disgusting organisation.

"This person said you were sinning. want to disassociate?"
Maybe they will begin to include a coupon in the bottom of the letter that you send back after checking the box marked 'DA' and signing below.

What's Is The Goal Of This Religion?
by pale.emperor inwhat's is the goal of this religion?.
i mean, if it's for money they could do a lot more like other religions do: tithing, paying for prayers from the gb, selling "miracles", selling "blessed" items, selling courses.. if its for power then what are they hoping to do with that power?
they dont seem to do anything.

I really like this topic!
I seem to remember the 'goal' was to survive Armageddon?
Generation after overlapping generation have come and gone since CT Russel told us that Armageddon was nigh...---
I'm seeing the GB as the kid that just got off the merry-go-round and is very dizzy.

The Watchtower is in BIG legal trouble, so the goal is to some how stay afloat?

One year later:
First I want to say how much this exJW community means to me. The support is genuine and comforting.
My wife ( dub ) and I celebrated our 20th anniversary all this week.
I survived and so can ANY OF YOU that are still-in and need an out.
