Yes I have also noticed this. Hardly any current JW that I knew for 25 years has a social media account. The ones that did have either deactivated it or totally locked it down so nothing can be seen on it. It's really creepy.

Sure does bring back some memories. I used to buy food in that commissary. So glad to be out though, much better memories being made now, and I can afford to shop at a normal grocery store!

I hope one day this religion will look back at their shunning policy with great shame. Times are changing, shunning clearly screams "CULT CULT CULT look at us WE ARE A CULT!!!"

Do You Ever Have Dreams You’re Still a JW?
by jp1692 inlast night i dreamt i was at a circuit assembly; i even had a walk-on speaking part early in the morning program.
i spent the rest of the day “working” the event in a security detail.
the dream lasted until the entire day’s program was over.

OK everyone lets be clear, these aren't dreams, they are NIGHTMARES!!! HAHA! I have them too. Been out for almost 20 years and I sill get sucked into showing up at a meeting when I fall asleep. It follows a similar pattern, everyone knows I'm no longer a JW, and I stand up for myself that's it's a cult. I really wish I didn't have ANY dreams about the cult, I'm hoping one day they stop. Now that they are doing that awful cart witnessing I can't get away from them, in my neighborhood sitting in chairs next to a cart, next to the train station I take to get to work in the morning, and then again at the downtown building I work at with that damn cart. No wonder I still have nightmares, I can't fully escape them! UGH!

If you were a fly on the wall at HQ right now...

The governing body is clearly too drunk on the approximate $850 in booze Top Shelf Tony bought to care at the moment. Give them a week to sober up before they write a new JW broadcasting episode where they talk about the dangers of alcohol and that they would NEVER tolerate such behavior at Bethel.

JW at a thrift store....
by Muddy Waters inso i was recently in a thrift store, looking through some of the stuff there, when another aisle over, somebody sneezed.. (as far as i know, nobody lost a meatball.... 😅🙃 ...).
anyway, somebody sneezed.
and somebody immediately said, “bless you!”.

For everyone wondering about the meatball reference it's an old kids song. "On top of spaghetti all covered with cheese I lost my poor meatball when somebody sneezed". Thanks, that gave me a good laugh! 😂

When You Were A JW Did You Really Understand The Religion and What You Were Getting Into?
by minimus inmany witnesses in my opinion know nothing about the religion.
they don’t understand the history, the doctrines or the bible.
many people become jws because they were raised as witnesses so they take the plunge.

I was born in and at 16 one of my friends was going to get baptized and was excited that he would be able to hold the microphone during the Watchtower study. I was a bit jealous so I decided to get baptized as well so I could also hand the microphone to people during the meeting. Never knew at the time it was the worst mistake I'd ever make. Been shunned by my whole family now for 16 years. WOW!

Waking up can be a scary time
by Leopold theseconed inas a person that has recently come to terms with the reality that the truth is not really the truth .
does anyone else remember the feeling when they realized things were just not true.
it’s wierd all the years i spent preaching i never really considered what it must have felt like to have two people at your door trying to convince you that your religion of birth was a lie.

It was rough for me. So much anger to start off with, followed by the realization that I was actually going to die one day. It was horrible, but many years later and being able to taste freedom for such a long time I've come to terms with much of it. I think it's something we will all carry with us for the rest of our lives, but in time you think about it less and less and move on with the good things you can make for yourself in the here and now.
