claustrophobic.
that's the simplest way for me to express how i feel in the wt org.
like many here, my eyes were slowly opened over the years as i did more earnest research, trying to reconcile some long standing spiritual quandaries.
Totally groovey.
Don't expect me to trust you though.
I'm kinda yes or no...and I see you as...on a journey?
I find in our world today...those ones who are honest and reliable quite often have nothing to do with those old corrupt religious and political systems.
Welcome to chaos!

Some suggest that we need that college education...
I submit...read a dictionary, then visit your local library...and read anything and everything of interest.
Who funds those college professors? Why would an ex-Dub change one lie for another?
Truth baby!

Even more interesting are the "clever" childish comments that indicate critical thinking is vanishing from this forum.

One of the things the Dubs got right is that modern science is full of shit. Science for profit is as reliable as government for profit.
first of all, let me say that i do think this excuse of a religion is on a downward spiral, which will only accelerate.. as a born in, i always read comments here about how dedicated and hard-line we are.
most of the born ins (who stayed) develop a casual attitude toward everything.
even if you believe it, hearing about armageddon, constantly, doesn't excite you as much when it's the 1,000th time you've heard it.

I was a convert.
Had already spent most Saturday mornings hung over watching those cartoons.
Loved getting up Saturday mornings and going out in service.
Did not understand the casual attitude that many others in the congregation had.
Thisconvert hated going out in service, but never understood the "casual" ones in the congregation. "People are Strange" was my hymn as I forced my self to live this lie. When I finally realized it WAS a lie...I quit. No lukewarm for me. I abandoned my family when I joined these cultists, so leaving them seemed fair.
The ones I wonder about are those who sit on the fence.

Interesting...
I was a convert, but in the early '70's I was one of many.
I faded away pre the 1974 armageddon event because I moved to Colorado and the witnesses there were pragmatic enough to not engage in the constant "love bombs" that infected the west coast.
So...converts were serious and you "born ins" were just cowards?
do you ever feel that way about your jw past?
maybe i need more time?
i know that it is a lie.
Seek truth.
why are so many guys getting their arms tattoed?
looks awful, like they have been in a fire and have ash all over their arms, or like they have gangrene.
just looks kinda dirty.
Ahh, got it...BMV/DMV. You are a government leech and protects the blood you thrive on?
I know...it's a novel concept, but some envision a world without any of you leeches.
Homeland Security isn't as warm and fuzzy as some as it is to you.

I see a lot of men and women come into the BMV/DMV with neck tatoos- wonder why they always ask for just picture ID's and DL reinstatements? How much, man, is it gonna cost me to get my hardsip (sic) license? Women have a hard time with tattoos of boyfriends who later leave town- who wants a ho with some other guys name on their neck?
How dare you!
Honestly, are you a bigot or just ignorant?

Any thing a human does to stand out today is good for mankind.
Humans were not made to conform to some narrow set of rules.
Some of you think you left the WTBTS, but are you still slaves?
