2015 marks 30 years of being out of the jehovah's witness cult.
when i was first kicked out it was scary as hell and lonely being shunned by family and others in a small town.
i was a young man then with my whole life ahead of me.
Welcome TruthSeeker, I appreciate your advice to the young Rank and File. Some of us (im 19) who are awake are not following the business model, however most of them who, at the moment, have no propensity to learn TTATT will not find it for a couple of years. Hope to hear more from you soon

i am so sick of this pretend religion that has now come to the point of showing its true colors.
the colors are white and blue.
this picture captures the true purpose of the watchtower these days.
Very good point Billy.
Wasanelder once, doesn't this cover look like the one which announced: Millions now Living Will never die? Is it just me? Good photo work by the way!
actually, just one musing.. there are a number of scriptures that wtbts uses to support their doctrine of everlasting life on paradise earth.
the vast majority come from the hebrew scriptures.
using just one verse, i believe i can disprove this doctrine quite soundly.. the verse is john 6:68.. simon peter answered him: lord, whom shall we go away to?
Good points here, but lets not forget that the borg. teaches that all first century Christians were anointed. This is
convenient. Lets also remember that the "heavenly call" was sealed in 1935. These utter lies causes serious bible
students to ignore many of these verses in preference of WT dogma.
i am proud to be a jehovah's witness in the last days, what religion has done this much to proclaim the message about the organization?
other religions are preaching about jesus, some wear the crucifixion, other's wear shirts with fishes but we wear shirts with jw.org!
no other religion has our courage!.
Very good post.....it takes someone deeply indoctrinated to even dare wear one of these. Its easy to know who's in and who's mentally checked-out.

i leave you people alone for one holiday, and you go and change the whole dern place around.
i can't find anything, don't recognize anything, i'm lost... wait, i sound like my grandfather... .
why, would you look what you've done to the place.
OUTLAW!!!!
Nice one!
if you happen to have the outline for this years annual pioneer meeting with elders can you please copy and paste to me in reply or send me the link i'm pdf please.
thank you very much know advance!
naeuca.
If the pioneers had the Holy Spirit they wouldn't need all this BS.
Exactly. Interesting how often times the publishers and sometimes others without titles display kindness and give encouragement without being explicitly told to do so by WT.

first thing i noticed, a would-be elder with a suitcase-sized 'service' bag.
pretender.
but i thought:.
The first part of that was used to guilt trip parents with slacking, apathetic kids. Overall same reactions. The only people who deserve the time of day, not to mention an invitation to your home are Elders and pioneers!
Definitely a Cult.
ever notice how the "happiest people on earth" are also the most class-oriented?
the social structure in the congregation is more complex than the blueprints of a nuclear warhead, but just so that you "remember your place", see if you can find where your niche was/is:.
1. at the top of the social order of things within the congregation is of course, the presiding overseer and his family.
