  WT have never and will never say "we are sorry." They will place the blame on everyone else. It's what they do. Remember 1975. A narcissist will NEVER say they are sorry. NEVER!!! The true colors of WT are showing for ALL to see!!!! Keep up the good work WT!!!!

  How Effective Are Anti-JW Internet Sites?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think that once you get on the internet and you see evidence that shows jehovah’s witnesses do not have the real truth, it can jolt you.

  but i don’t think simply going on an internet site typically changes a person’s direction—even if the information is very damning toward the witnesses.

  i think it takes time to eventually get out.

  This site and others have helped me and my spouse. It is kind of a therapy for me. So many similar experiences and stories. It has also assisted my spouse and I to have a successful fade and play things OUR way.

  Thanks to everyone on here for contributing!!!

  the wt for this upcoming sunday 10/07 is especially precious in its standard double speak.

  aren't we so grateful to the f&ds who directly mediates our relationship with jesus christ and give us the food we need at the proper time?

  i dunno....maybe i have anger issues with the the wt?.

  Worried much WT? If rank and file members were not leaving, they would not print this. People are leaving. WT will still be around but will be a much smaller cult than before!

  When you mix JW Bunker videos with drugs or prescription drugs, it can make an interesting car ride. JW nutters are a dime a dozen.

  Funeral/Memorial at the Kingdom Hall ... Would you go?

  by Wild_Thing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  let's say an aunt or uncle dies.

  .

  let's say you barely knew them.. let's say their memorial service was held at the kingdom hall.. let's say if you attend, you have to deal with shunning from family and jws, and you are forced listen to them present their paradise promotional materials, and the dead person's "earthly hope™", and let's face it ... the heeby-jeebies of having to be in a kingdom hall again.. would you put yourself through it?

  i was commenting on another thread about how local kh attendance is down.

  memorial attendance was also way down and the circuit assembly had hundreds less people than what is typical.

  my jw family has even mentioned it.

  "so I'm still aware of the spectacular increase of the "great crowd"

  Yes, we are hearing the same thing from a full in/brainwashed family member. "You should see the increase." Our thoughts when he says it...."yeah right."

  Legends in their OWN minds!!!
