wow.. so, you know i'm an active witness, very active.
hah.
and i'm not laughing at y'all, but wow, i can't believe how extensive this is.
Very good posts Auldsoul even though I have been away for a number of years it does no harm going over why I left
Hi to Darcy I hope your time here is enjoyable and you are allowed to keep the spikey hair. When I was a teen I copied Billy Idol (except for the bleach part) but got told off for wearing it that way, maybe that was a good thing
All the best

the yorkshire ripper killed umpteen women and is a jw now.
if i was an active jw i wouldn`t like the thought of living with him forever, after the way he killed all those women.
what do you think about the fact that they have accepted him to the org?
What a mad story, I had never heard that one.
Although I have heard that up here some people are leaving a hall for another one as a convicted child molester is attending their hall. He was a witness in another hall before going to prison and they don't want their kids near him and quite right too I say

i stopped going out in service about a year ago.
just couldn't take it anymore.
after that, i still continued "studying" with my kids and "counting the time" for that.
I used to put reports in then they would say, how did you manage this as we haven't seen you at the groups? I just said I witnessed to the kids and did informal at work. Then came the crunch when I said I couldn't do it anymore so they came over listened to my reasons and left me alone. Just don't say that you don't think God is using the borg if you say that they will put you out for sure
All the best with your struggle

tomorrow im going to see my jw friend we all the time argue about the cult and must of the time he have no answer, and i think he is not too happy with the cult (he is ms) he is 41yr old and married no children (was virgin 28yr wtf).
about two weeks ago he was called to the back room why?
because he had some misunderstanding with ex alder the claim he doesnt have love for him lololol.
That's the point there isn't one
Tell your pal to read Crisis of Conscience that gives very good insight into why they are not the choosen ones

hi, am relatively new on here, so haven`t seen any postings about how much the society is worth, but would really be interested to know.
what i can`t understand is what they are doing stockpiling money, when they could give some to the poor bro`s in africa etc.
give to poor pioneers, and hard up ones in congregations.
It always amazed me that at assemblies bethel folk from around the world were flown in to give talks and stuff. I had a friend who was closer to this than me and he said these guys flew in 1st class or club class none of your cattle class for these guys and who paid for it?? Us!! In addition if funds are low a "special" talk is given urging bros to put their hands in their pocket's and give more, how many times have we had talks about the poor widow who gave what she could.
Quck builds is another money spinner what with all that free labour where we would pay the price for attending builds hundreds of miles away and sleep on floors or tents.
Yes it is a wealthy business that is a fact.

hello from mavie.
currently happily married for a number of years to a great jw wife, i currently serve as an ms in our local kh.
my wife and i have been told we are pillars in the congregation.
Hi
Sorry to hear about your home situation and the treatment you have received. My wife also had depression whilst at the hall it seems she was never able to please everyone all the time and how could she with the demands that were made.
I came here like you not sure what to expect what with all the brain washing I had for 30 years about "apostates" and their ways. I have to say however that the 99.9% of people on here are smashing and will do what they can to help and support you. We have been out now for a number of years and are both healthly physically and mentally which is in no small part of being out of the troof. All my family are still in by the way so it wasn't an easy choice to make
I wish you all the best in the coming months and years
