The Story of My Sister - Lurkers: Is this logical?

by Funchback in

my sister got baptized at 17 or 18 years old in 1983. she was ripe for the jw picking as she was shy, quiet, naive and with low self-esteem even though she was tall and beautiful and she attended one of the best high schools in philadelphia.. she wasn't outgoing and she only went out on a couple of dates prior to her baptism.

she worked at a day care center.

she loved children and animals.

So sorry this cult has done so much damage to your family. They have a lot to answer for. Hopefully soon they will be answering for so many things (child abuse).

It amazes me that they DF'd your sister for getting married in a church. Our Kingdom Hall was sold to a church several years back. Shouldn't WT be punished for supporting Christendom? The hypocrisy in this cult is staggering. I have witnessed throughout my life, "what goes around comes around." It will happen to WT one day. Just stand by and watch, WT will get caught with their pants down. They are screwing with too many lives and people are getting pissed.

Enjoy your family and live each day to the fullest. I am glad you have your sister back in your life, that is awesome. Your sister is lucky to have you.

Believer is so happy to see so many in the truth YET he doesn't mind hanging out on a JW apostate site. He/she makes a perfect JW. HYPOCRITE ALL THE WAY! Gotta love it!

JW's arrogant as f...?!

by Alostpuppydog in

has anybody else noticed that almost all the jdubs are super arrogant?

i mean even from just the basic ones to especially the elders and the overseers omg.

they act like they are so high and mighty that you should just worship them.

Eventually that is all that will be left in this organization . The power hungry and arrogant. They won't have anybody else to feed off of but one another . It will be interesting when they start combining congregations and one COBE has to give up his almighty position and move in a congregation with another arrogant COBE. We know of several people who have moved out of congregations because they couldn't stand others. It will be fun to watch when they are all thrown back in together again. Oh the fun! :)

792 baptized this weekend at one convention

by dropoffyourkeylee in

at a 3-day convention in nairobi, kenya this week 12-2-16 through 12-4-16, they had 70,000+ attendance, and there were 792 baptized (i presume the baptism was yesterday).

i was amazed to hear this; i guess now we know where the wt's growth is coming from..

ToesUp

That's not what WT wants. They want the dubs with money! Not too many hefty donations coming from Kenya.

Did you ever experience true kindness in the Org?

by HereIgo in

i remember when i was about 17, i started shunning an older brother because he was disfellowshipped.

when i graduated high school, he pulled me aside and said " i know you are not supposed to talk to me, but i want you to have this" it was a gift that he had custom made for me.

i was so blown away, we never even had a real conversation before.

No matter how strong or nice....once you leave they will abandon you. GUARANTEED! True friends don't abandon you....not matter how bad things are, they will be there for you. That's how true friends roll.

"We Had No Idea How Manipulative He Can Be!"

by pale.emperor in

very stressfull and upsetting evening was had last night.

i dropped my 2yo daughter off to my ex-wifes home.

all seemed good until i got home.

ToesUp

Lawyer up and fight the fine fight. Tell your ex to contact your lawyer NOT YOU and hang up. If you want to celebrate the holidays or be with friends that are doing so, that is your business. When your wife explains this to the judicial system, they will think she's nuts. All the "worldly" people think the JW's are batsh*t cra2!

Showing Kindness To Strangers

by FedUpJW in

i feel pretty foolish after reading the drivel in today's wt.

here i was operating under the impression that showing kindness to strangers was something that one did unselfishly.

boy was i wrong!

ToesUp

Kindness? JW's kind? Do an experiment . Tell all of your kind JW "friends" that you don't want to come back to the Kingdumb hall anymore. See how kind your JW "friends" are then. We used to have kind JW friends at one time. Now we do not attend anymore. Guess what? All the kind JW "friends" are long gone. GOOD RIDDANCE TO THEM ALL. IT'S THEIR LOSS! Life is to short to waste on stupid people!
