"Sit up and pay attention assholes -- you've made so many enemies that the tables have turned."

Love your post Doc. I couldn't have said it better myself!

For all of you who have sat on the other side of the table during a JC and were bullied into giving intimate details of your "sin." Now is the time to sit up and take notice of how WT is handling being "on the other side of the table." Maybe some of the abuse victims (child abuse, emotional abuse, physical abuse) will get some justice watching this cult have to answer for all the things THEY DID NOT DO. As the ole saying goes...."turnabout is fair play." It's comin for ya Watchtower. All you innocent victims...grab your popcorn and enjoy the show. I KNOW WE WILL!!!!

"I think we are being "soft shunned." We are not DF'd or DA'd and no one in the congregation knows why we left a few years ago. Limited conversations with family. Small talk.

We have bumped into a few of our old KH "friends." So far they have been cordial and friendly. I think the thing that perplexes them, we really are happy and we show it. We do this even at home. We have a lot to be grateful for and we figure if people WANT to be in our life, they are more than welcome. If not, good riddance, their loss. We are the same happy, generous and kind people we were when still in the cult. We just don't believe what we used to.

JW Nut Telling His Story Online

by pale.emperor in

while searching for some jw related stuff online, i stumbled across this page created by a pimi.

his name is steve mcdowell and a watered down version of his story was published in the watchtower https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/wp20150701/bad-to-worse-life-story/.

however, this version, he says, is the full version.

Another JW misfit!!! They are a dime a dozen. Great post.

by neat blue dog in

has anybody seen the new online bible study yet, just posted yesterday i believe?

it's the first thing you see now when going to the home page.

the online bible study lessons on jw.org are free, have no obligation, and are easy to use.

Who the heck needs to go to the KH or out in field serve us anymore. You can do everything online! It's preparing the rank and file to hide out in their bunker and wait for the asserians to show up. lol

Paranoid much! lol

Brave Doctor Saves the Life of a JW Infant

by Lee Elder in

how a brave intern saved the life of a jehovah's witness infant by ignoring the wishes of the parents and administering a life saving blood transfusion.

Great interview!!! Now we all know why WT doesn't want it's members to research. Too much truth to be found!

Glad this young girl escaped and started living her life.

We have watched JW's home school their children and them put them in Bethel or Pioneer and they can not function in the world. It is sad! I hope more and more young people see through this cult!!!

The glue of disfellowshiping

by Sour Grapes in

the fear or threat of being disfellowshipped is what is keeping thousands of jdubs stuck in the borg.

the borg knows that and constantly reminds the witlesses of this loving provision from their desert god.. this forces thousands of people to live miserable lives.

millions of jdubs live for the promised panda and lion petting zoo while pissing away the only life they will ever have.

ToesUp

Yes, the GB knows this. A similar situation with the blood policy. WT knows if they drop the blood policy completely, they will get the crap sued out of them.

Is it true that Watchtower is self insured? I have heard they were but not sure this is true. Does anyone know?

Female JW parking "attendants"

by neat blue dog in

i was shocked recently to see on social media a couple pictures of jw sisters at a convention working as parking "attendants".

i put that title in quotation marks because they still don't get the official attendant badge like the male parking attendants do, only the reflective vest.

has anybody else heard of this .

JWTALK Bob Comes Up With A Classic

by AverageJoe1 in

the guy everyone loves to hate, bob, has come up with a classic:.

redefining the concept of "critical thinking" when it comes to jws.. he quite correctly states the need to use critical thinking when reading the bible, yet we all know that pimi jws don't have the first clue what "critical thinking" really means, especially on a thread fawning over how great the gb are and guessing who will be presenting the next jwb!.

the link to the actual comment is:.

Yeah this guy sounds like the typical self righteous and arrogant dub.

I scrolled up and read the lyrics to a JW song. The song is about loneliness. Interesting. How come all the JW's are feeling lonely? I felt that way to when I was in. Been out for several years, don't feel lonely anymore! I just find it interesting that JW's feel lonely in their big and loving family.
