I remember just a few short years ago, I brought my IPad to the meeting. I was met with dirty looks and stares. My how things have changed. Once Mother says it's ok, all is well. HYPOCRITES!

"Friends" are gone
by BeautifulMind ini have (well had) an extremely small circle of jw friends.
lots of acquaintances and associates but 2 or 3 i would consider my true friends.
that list is now 0. yup, once i told them i no longer believe in the org and haven't for a long time, and their attempts to encourage me thru jw lingo and terminologies to "rely on jehovah" and not to "stray away" failed that was pretty much it.

This issue has actually helped us with our fade. We have used it as an example to our children. "Where is everyone?, How come no one calls/visits anymore?" It has been a good thing. The kids see it for what it is. Thanks Watchtower! -

CO Comes Up With A New Way To Be Judgemental...
by JW_Rogue inat the latest co visit something very strange happened.
during the meeting with the elders and servants he passed out a copy of a hypothetical publisher card and asked us what we could learn from it.
upon receiving it i saw that the average hours were pretty good, it had return visits and quite a few bible studies.

Sounds like a typical CO. The comforting thing for us is not one red cent will ever go to support these narcissistic, egotistical, self righteous & pompous "men." Nor will any of these ungrateful people sit at our table.
Wolves in sheeps clothing!

We think they bought those apartments to house all the old timers (you know...all the ones sitting in the front rows at the Annual Meeting). I bet a lot of these old timers know some good ole secrets about the Org (they know where all the dead bodies are buried). They have to keep these ones happy, until they die off. Kind of like how they "took care" of Greenlees and Chitty. Funny how they just hid those 2 away. Hmmm! -

Suicide or Real Freedom? - My Story As One Of Jehovah's Witnesses
by dubstepped in"sometimes i think the only thing i could do that wouldn't upset someone would be to kill myself.".
those were the frustrated words of my friend as we stood out in his large yard in the country, just about to enjoy a nice bonfire on a beautiful night.
what was it that could have been a lesser evil than killing himself?

Wow...what a fantastic story. It was well worth the read. I just sat here and read it out loud to my spouse. It was wonderful!
It is amazing that you and your wife did all of this together. The debt you paid off and the hard work you did to do that was commendable. You did it with hard work and should be proud of that.
Your story will give so many here hope. I know you must hurt that you both lost your family but you have gained a brother and his family. How wonderful! It is good that you have moved on and are making new friends. You are right, there are so many wonderful people to connect with in "the world." They do not all have horns and pitchforks. lol
Thank you again for your story, it truly made our day.

Typical JW crap. Just like Jesus would do (sarcasm). Bottom line....they don't care and never will. That is why me and my immediate family no longer choose to participate in their games. -

Lets start a "Go Fund Me" for those special pioneers being kicked to the curb by the GB,.
by notjustyet inlots of great potential to help those sp that are being sent off without any financial help from the wtbts.
i think that it would be a great way to get some exposure on this topic and how the wtbts thats those that dedicated their lives to the wtbts only to be sent packing at a late age.
then someone can take the funds to one sp couple, possibly, and give it to them in honor of the apostates that know what is really happening.
