I have nothing left in the tank, I need help

by Yondaime in

i dont have the willpower to attend meetings anymore.

i'm literally on the sound system list every week.

i'm either reading on sunday or tuesday, praying on tuesday nites, adjusting mics, passing mics, or working the sound system, or doing last minute parts for the service meeting.

Thanks for the support guys I'll meditate and try to apply your Advice.

Not to mention service on Saturdays and Sundays.

On top of that I'm in college. I'm really considering taking a break from meetings for a couple of months, but I'm scared the cult will weaponize my family against me.

What do I do?!!!

Anybody else relate, "Take me to Church" by Hosier to the KH and elders?

a good chunk of this song matches up to a life as a jw.. here are some lyrics and how i relate it.. .

my lover's got humour she's the giggle at a funeral knows everybody's disapproval i should've worshiped her sooner (whole verse about perhaps a spouse who left first and shunned by all, and now the other spouse who finally left should have supported them long ago) if the heavens ever did speak she's the last true mouthpiece every sunday's getting more bleak a fresh poison each week (the gb say they are the 'mouthpiece' of god.

this persons other is who revealed ttatt.

When I saw the Lebron James commercial on tv, the lyrics really hit home. This song is not only my new gym anthem but also a song that helps me get thru tough times. Lol I had a feeling this would come up on the threads soon.

Ever since I learned TTATT, I stopped contacting a sister who I wanted to date

by Yondaime in

i was head over heels for this girl, but when i realized i was in a self destructive cult i realized tieing the knot with her would screw up my future.

this makes me think of the highschool sweethearts i turned down that were worldly.

now she gives me dirty looks whenever our eyes meet a the hall or at gatherings.

I feel bad but at the same time relieved that I prevented myself from being blinded by emotions.

Not being married to a dub will make the process of leaving a lot easier.

What do you guys think?

My Breaking Point -- 11/9/14

friends

i have enjoyed reading your comments during the past four years.

deep down inside, i have always been agnostic.

the first few chapters in genesis are contradictory and differing.. no one has ever been able to answer my question: "why was satan ever created?".

Yondaime

Amen.

This AM3 guy is f***ing crazy, and the worst part is my family was nodding in agreement with this clown during the final talk.

WTF? Tight pants? Really?? I thought that John Cedars vid with AM3 mentioning tight pants was a one time thing.

Guys please tell me your reactions and what you grasped from the zone meeting

Memorial Partakers

by Yondaime in

do they want to attract attention to themselves or are they just crazy?.

my sister just had a spiritual orgasm since she met a brother at a party who'd took part in the emblems.. .

i'm an atheist so i know its a load of bs, but what do you think this guy's objective is?.

Do we know for sure what happens after death?

by Yondaime in

christian denominations say we go to heaven, witness say we stay alseep until ressurection.

quran says when we go we grt 72 virgins, unless we blow some people up.. .

i'm not really concerned with death atm, i'm not dead.

I'm not really concerned with death atm, I'm not dead. But being an atheist gives me an internal conflict.

I want to have faith in god but I don't see any evidence that proves he exists. Neither do I see evidence that proves whether he is the god of Abraham (Yah-Weh) or the god of Muhammed (Allah).

These documents written by people who lived millenniums ago were passed down and modified by others to produce whatever texts we have today.

Can I really trust any of these documents? What if they were interpreted wrong?

No one can prove these docs are correct without referring to those documents or to their own interpretations of those documents. If I ask the elders what they think they will just tell me to go read a WT or Awake article on Watchtower Liexists?

Thinking about this makes my head feel like its about to explode.

Will we know whether a higher being exists or not, once we die?

Do we know what happens after death?

Will we ever find out?

So I'm going through a really difficult time right now.

by scaredtospeak in

i was publicly reproved last year and the elders have taken their sweet time in reinstating my "privileges".

it's been six months and i can't answer at the meetings or participate in the theocratic ministry school.

in all honesty- i don't care about the privileges.

Yondaime

Scaredtospeak dont worry dude Im in the same shoes as you, Im 18 too. I am now in college desperately trying to grasp knowledge and master my major. Dont worry dude just put on a fake smile at the meetings and go with the flow. Once you're able to make it on your own pull the plug and RUN!
