Should I hit send button as is? Change? Or just hit delete?

by Lied2NoMore in

so after being deleted because of my comment on her instagram post by my sister-in-law i got a text from her stating she didn't want a debate on instagram and the scripture i posted would not apply to satan, they are worried about me, go see elders, return to jehovah, or else you won't get life, etc etc.... i'm ready to respond with the following reply:.

so....hit send?

make changes?

I would delete it. When an individual comes at you with "cult mode" on full automatic: there is little you can do to have a logical conversation with them. If you choose to send I later, be sure to edit your message so that it is more objective, goal-oriented, and doesn't break rapport. Have you looked into Steven Hassan's Strategic Interactive Approach?

Interesting RC Experience

by Blackfalcon98 in

i recently attended the rc for my area.

while there, i encountered a old family "friend" who recently lost her jw husband.

as the interaction proceeds she relates that her grand daughter, who's around my age (early twenties) has "left jehovah".

Unfortunately many of them leave before fully understanding TTATT only to come back later as an insurance policy for their kids.....Im hoping I get a few people to think while I'm still in

I recently attended the RC for my area. While there, I encountered a old family "friend" who recently lost her JW husband. As the interaction proceeds she relates that her grand daughter, who's around my age (early twenties) has "left Jehovah". I then asked my mother if the young woman in question was "bright". She affirmed, and I felt so encouraged; I'm known for being a once zealous MS, who is currently an apathetic free-thinker/rebel. I felt powerless the entire RC, to intervene in the massive indoctrination of thousands who will waste their lives in this cult.

DOC just told em' to STFU lol

But seriously, slow down with the fam...and be sure to have a good excuse for the elders when you submit your letter requesting that you no longer be considered a pioneer. They will want to get into your business, but don't give them too much of a reason. It is not their concern what you do with YOUR time.

Best Wishes,

"do not go beyond the things written"

by stuckinarut2 in

thanks to bu2b and splash who mentioned this quote in another thread!.

but i thought it deserved a thread all of its own, such is the impact of this:.

the very best example of going beyond the things written comes from a 2008 watchtower.

Great thread STUCK! And excellent post Dariokehl the hilarious thing is your list isnt exhaustive lol

God Unrighteous

by berrygerry in

for decades, i slaved for wts, mentally, emotionally, financially, familially, socially, educationally.. at times, when i was the only one caring for the maintenance needs of the local kh, and being discouraged at the "sacrifices" being contributed to the borg, my spouse would say: "jehovah sees what you are doing.".

and yet, later, my spouse turned on me, turning instead to "jehovah's elders" and totally threw me under the bus.. paul, allegedly, said in hebrews: "for god is not unrighteous so as to forget your work and the love you showed for his name.".

i feel nothing of the sort.. does anyone feel similarly?.

Blackfalcon98

Yes, but you must remember to these people:

God = The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses

The moment you abandon the GB, the moment you abandoned God....not to mention the reality is their god, is a tyrannical group of men.....of course they forgot your works as soon as you finished them!

Definitely a Cult.

Want to share your thoughts on JWs?

by punkofnice in

jw
friends

well, it's been a long while since i last visited here.

i've been doing this and that...you know....lugubrious life and all.. i am interested in collating views from all types of people about jws, albeit non jws, ex jws....anyone associated with jws who wants to share their viewpoint.

later on i'd like to self publish these collected interviews but cannot offer any money as the project is more about giving people an opportunity to speak, help, whatever, rather than make a best seller.
