After 40 years in the cult + 3 years of inactivity, I have decided two years ago to officially dissociate myself from JW cult for conscience and personal reasons. JWs can regard me just as they want to, I really do no care. Communication is permanently broken off between them and me, same between me and them.Even if some family members are now shunning me, why should I now be affected by the way that brainwashed people are considering me ?

By its shunning politics, JW.Org is acting like a terrorist organization. They are not using bombs, physically speaking, but they are breaking, and this without any punishment, family ties. This organization made in USA needs to be shunned, at it's turn and in due time, by governmental authorities.

Sparlock is making his rounds again
by stillin ini was at the meeting last night and the dreadful video about caleb and sparlock was forced upon the audience.
honestly, i had forgotten how bad it was.
the mother's manipulative over-reaction and caleb's acceptance that his toy was evil.

It seems to me that instead of forcing her son to throw the object received as a gift in the trash, the mother should have contacted Caleb's classmate and, while thanking him for his kindness, return to him the object, simply explaining that she is doing this for personal reasons. JWs are very often rough and unintelligent in their relationship with people not sharing their faith.

JWs in Russia- "Pray for those in prison"
by NikL inlast night at the midweek meeting was a part titled "pray for those in prison" or something like that.. they showed a video all about the witnesses in russia and the court battles they've been fighting of late and the hard time they have been having because of it all.. the first thing that struck me, hey, why don't you a** holes in brooklyn send these poor sods a few rubles to help them along?.
nah!
prayer is what they need.. anyway, i hadn't really followed the story so i thought i would look it up this morning and see what was in the media about the story.. on the npr website they had a big write up about it back in may of last year.... http://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2016/05/17/476898973/russias-jehovahs-witnesses-fight-extremist-label-possible-ban.

Leaving the jws is a "lifestyle choice" according to a counsellor
by purrpurr inso i had my first appointment with a counsellor, of course i explained about being a born in jw, mentally leaving, the penalty of doing so and therefore the mental strain of pretending to be someone i'm not.
her response was that she couldn't help me with that because leaving a cult was a "lifestyle choice".
i tried to say to her that its a cult not a religion and how it brain washed me but no.
