  Slim, im already on record saying i dont care why you came back and that its your prerogative... However my dear cognac has explained to me why she feels as she does and i can understand her point.

  You were here for a long time and all of a sudden proclaimed that you were going back to the org and that you once again accepted jw's as having the truth, that you were going to ask the desert god for forgivnees etc etc.... Thats a pretty profound thing to say. It took some people for a loop, as it were, and took a little something from them personally. Thats not your fault in and of itself, but it was the very public way you did it and the very personal proclamation of rediscovery regarding the religious virtues of the witness that seems to have some wondering so much how you went from witness to nonbeliever to witness back to here again and did so in a very public way.

  im not pushing you to make a statment nor do i believe personally you owe me or anyone else an explanation but having talked to cognac and hearing her view on it i just wanted to share how she and others may be feeling about this from an impartial non emotionally involved persons view, maybe explain it in a way that they are not because it hit them so close to home.

  whatever you choose slim I wish you all the best and happines :)

  Going to see Star Wars:The Force Awakens - What are you seeing?

  this is not an attempt to 'straightjacket' anyone into a fixed interpretative perspective.

  so set your mind free and see satan and his demons if you reallynwant to adopt a possible jw perspective.

  or, just sit back and watch the show and the trick affects if you want.. or like the uk guardian you could see the movie in terms of dysfunction (personal and family).. quote: the original movies were always based on the most extraordinary nexus of personal and family dysfunction: a motor of guilt, shame and conflict.

  hi guys - new poster here.

  i was brought up a jw in the uk and stopped going not long after i was married.

  that was 20 years ago so i'm not really up to date with the current doctrinal flip flops or the new youtube obsessed gb.. came across this site while googling the name of a local elder who's just been convicted of possesion of a pc full of unpleasant pics of kids.. so, my question.

  "I haven't avoided any question. Your inability to read or extrapolate an answer from the things I've written is your problem, not mine."

  
  

  hmmmm.... So cognac has a problem because shes trying to help you be articulate instead of allowing you to be dodgy and evasive...? No i think not.

  What i extroplate is that the whole premise of this thread reeks of self righeous aggrandizement. Congratulations. Now we all can see clearly what you are. Dont break your arm patting yourself on the back.

  I always love self righteous threads from people who have nothing to lose questioning why people with everything to loose dont do as they did... /endextremesarcasium

  Everyone has their own process and everyone has their own time. Its better that we support people where they are and help them take the next step than belittle them for what they haven't yet done. Congrats on your easy and pain free fade. Its not like that for most.

  "She found it 'profound' to buy and eat a candy bar autonomously as if it's some kind of adult experience .

  You must be either 8 years old or Amish."

  And you must not have grown up in a cult...or with any manners.

  It is amazing the things that makes us reflect on life and where we are sometimes. It can be the smallest things we realize we have a choice about or things we take pleasure in that help us find or realize our place in the world in a new way.

  November Study WT "Train You Child to Love Going Door 2 Door"

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. watchtower

  been catching up on some jw reading and found a gem in the november study wt in the first article, paragraph #11:.

  yet, you might look beyond the obvious and ask yourself, does my child enjoy the ministry or only the breaks?

  if you discern that the ministry could be more interesting or more rewarding for your children, set goals with them.

  Tal summed up everything i was thinking... The works oriented nature of jw'dom is sickening and even more so the insatiable nature of the whorish organization.

  Unfortunately the org talks about elders not being police but then encourages them to be that very thing by default. There is always a great deal of emphasis at elders schools regarding punishment for various offenses against the church or church policy. Thats generally the focus of those meetings in their whole... Its a shame but truly punishmenf comes before most else in the org, even for men who otherwise wouldnt view things that aay.
