As an Ex JW now, how would you react if you met your Bible study conductor?
by EverApostate ini was a jw for 11 years , came to know ttatt and wrote my disassociation letter 5 years ago.
since then i had been an atheist and trying all i can to spread awareness for “still in” members.
my wife and mom are still jws and i do get along with them perfectly.

I've ran into my study conductor several times......the fat bastard!!!!
He was cordial to me, as my wife was along and I would've surely made him look like the Ass I now believe him to be in front of her if he got out of line.

Wanting Less Involvement (long newbie story)

i have been unhappy on and off with my involvement in this religion and am ready to step back again.
growing up i was always active but extremely reserved and a low hour publisher.

Also, unless you're in love and absolutely TRUST a guy, don't marry him...Otherwise you're going to be miserable.
I sue hope her decision is a little more involved than that.....

I guess I am in a rare state with my JW wife. While I am confident she may hear over and over that I am basically the walking dead at the hall, she says over and over that she personally believes that I am a good person and that she believes that I will be spared by the vengeful sock puppet during armageddon.
The biggest problem for me is that she doesn't seem to be able to enjoy the moment, as in now. Why bother after all when it will be so much better in the future.... The negative attitude is a real turn off.
My wife is also this way. We could be immersed in something that is the most fun ever or looking at something stunningly beautiful and she'll always comment on how things will be so much better in the future.
Every JW I've ever been around was like that. They seem to not be able to find beauty or satisfaction in anything save the continual sucking up to the governing body.

Did you ever have a discussion with an apostate that helped your journey out.
by jwfacts inthere seems to be a number of different ways that apostates try to get jehovah's witnesses realise they do not have the truth, ranging from subtle comments to aggressive attacks.
do you have any that looking back helped you finally leave.
some of the methods include:.

For me it was JWs themselves. I got sick and tired of having to report myself to the elders, watching my back, hiding mundane things from my family and friends that were no big deal. I could see a lot of hypocrisy and i wanted no part of it.
This statement really resonated with me.
I am often told by my wife that she hope that it wasn't anything she done to cause me to reject being a JW. It would probably crush her to no end to know that she herself was the catalyst.
I came from a big family and we regularly had familial events on weekends and holidays. Me and the wife used to really enjoy these events, however, the deeper she got into being a JW the more fault she found with them.
What I grew most tired of was how everything to the slightest degree revolved around meeting attendance and not causing conflict or being in complete agreement of whatever circle of JW friends we were around or whatever was in the latest magazines. Another thing she would do is right in the middle of the fun of a family event, she would proclaim that she wanted to get home early and leave so that she could make a meeting later that day or the next.......then she'd find a reason to not go to the meeting we left all the fun for. This infuriated me.

Look up and read the posts of a member here SD-7.
Unless you are going to be a full bore male JW reaching out for privileges in the congregation, you are fighting a loosing battle.

Was it just me or was something different about the memorial last night?
by kpop inthis was the first memorial that i declined to do any work for the memorial.
i was assigned as a parking attendant after getting downgraded from doing the sound and had no intention of doing either task but i had to attend for my family and continuation of my fade.
i sat there last night listening to the talk and couldn't help but shake my head as my brain attempted to process the bs.

The ones who turn up as guests are almost always family members who were never in "the truth" but turn up to this once a year because it's the least they could do to keep their spouse/family happy.
Was me being there with my spouse that obvious?

How much $$$$ will have been spent on the letter writing campaign to Russia?
by OrphanCrow ini have been following the jw chatter online about the letter writing that has been furiously undertaken by the jws around the world.
a global effort done on the command of the gb in ny.. several jws have mentioned the cost of mailing letters (and packages of letters, where allowed) to russia and the cost is substantial.
some jws have mailed dozens of letters.. the jw boast is that the russian postal system will be overwhelmed with letters.

So.....all of those letters my wife sent out a couple of days ago cost me a 10 spot!!!!

My awkward elders hearing
by Andamormonjustbelieves ini was baptized when i was 14 years old.
i hadn't had any real relationship with a girl up to that point.
but when i started going to high school i learnt the joys of experimenting with girls, so i did not stay a faithful member of the congregation for long.

"Did you ejaculate"? ans. "Yes". "Where did you ejaculate"? ans. 'In her mouth". I almost lost it on that one
You've got to be kidding.....

"Did you put your hands below her shirt?
Did you kiss her exposed breasts?
Did you fondle her genitals? Did she fondle yours?"
These were all questions asked during my JC when I was 19. Good times.I just can't imagine how anyone would put up with being questioned in this way?
