who has been out the longest?

by stan livedeath in

who has been out of the cult the longest ?.

i'll start--i resigned in 1971, but attended occasionally as a non-interested husband to keep the wife sweet, untill my last circuit assembly in autumn 1980. no connection with the cult since then.

so--its either 47 or 38 years, depending on how you see it.. which begs the question--why am i on this site now ?.

yep--@Giordano trumps me.

thank you @ John Free for your kind comment.

@Stillin

that wife divorced me as soon as she could --in early summer of 1981. it was a "scriptural " divorce. end of cult association + end of unhappy marriage. life has been sweet ever since.

No offence taken..at all..LUHE....

There's far more brotherly love on this site than ever i saw in the cult.

which begs the question--why am i on this site now ? - yeah, why the f**k are you still here, Stan? XD

well--firstly, ive got 2 grown up kids still in the cult--and several grandchildren who ive never met. so i like to keep up to date on whats the latest rubbish they are filled with.

secondly--the real reason--i'm retired..bored--time on my hands with nothing better to do.

Interview with an Apostate - Scratchme1010

by scratchme1010 in

for what it's worth:.

tell us a little about yourself and your family.. i am one of 7 children in my family, three boys, three girls and me.

yes, i'm right in the middle, and i'm the pink sheep of the family (or at least the official one).

stan livedeath

interesting you have been out 30 years--like me. i wonder why we still hang out on here ?

Who are the 144,000?

by Canadian Sunshine in

if i am understanding correctly only 144,000 will go to heaven, to be with jesus and help rule?

these 144,000 are witnesses only.

there is over a million jw world wide, what happens to the rest of the faithful followers.

stan livedeath

so--i take it youre not a jehovah's witness then ?

New brochure about donations.

by Ray Frankz in

in this midweek meeting the local needs was a booooring speech about the new brochure on donations.

the wt must think the jws are dying to know how to give their money.. well, it's not new this is disgusting but this time, after i ve been slightly hinting people here and there for a year about the 'abnormal request of money' and remind them that 'the faithful slave wasn't like that until some time ago', this time i saw their faces.

they did get bothered with that talk.

@everapostate

maybe its time the watchtower PLC simply charged everyone an admission fee to the kingdom hall meetings--then both parties would know exactly where thay stand.

An Interview with an Apostate - Truth B Known

by truth_b_known in

tell us a little about yourself and your family.. i was born in the mid-1970s in the midwest part of the u.s. my parents were about to enter gilead when i arrived.

my father converted to jw in his late 20s/early 30s.

he was raised a catholic, but became an atheist/agnostic.

stan livedeath
