  Did ANYBODY Here Believe The Witnesses Were The One True Religion?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i was raised believing i was very fortunate knowing i had the truth.

  i was groomed to be an elder.

  i figured if mother said something, even if i couldn’t totally understand it, it was correct because mother knows best.

  i just accepted it as fact--it must be the true religion because we ( parents + me ) were in it. But that was when i was just a know it all kid.

  Copies of WT CDs

  by CeriseRose in

  2. friends

  if this post is not appropriate for this forum, the mods can remove it.. i have cd copies of the wt library 1999 (qty: 1), and burned copies of the wt library 2001 (qty: 2).

  i have no interest in them.

  i doubt most people here do either.

  STUDY ARTICLE When a Loved One Leaves Jehovah

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the watchtower—study edition | september 2021. study article 39. when a loved one leaves jehovah.

  2 think how heartbroken jehovah must have been when members of his own angelic family turned their back on him!

  (jude 6) and imagine how hurt he was at seeing his beloved people, the israelites, rebel against him time and again.

  its such a proven formula.

  Young JW family--daddy finally decides enough is enough with this stupid cult--and quits. Quickly the machine kicks into life and the cult emotionally supports the wife and in no time the family is broken. Daddy is no longer good enough and mummy keeps the kids and daddy is rejected from their lives.

  Happened to me--and also to my son--history repeating itself.

  Anyone else recognise the pattern ?

  How Do you Count How Long You Were In "The Truth?"

  by IWant2Leave in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  if you were born in, do you count from the year of your birth, when you gave your first presentation at the door, (i was five),.

  when you became an unbaptized publisher, (i was about 12), or when you dedicated your life to god,(org) and took the plunge?

  what could you have done with all of this time?

  Since You Have Left The Religion Are You Happier?

  by minimus in

  i realize that some activist exjws really don’t seem to be happy in life.

  they finally got away from the organization and yet seem still negatively connected to it.

  some exjws are always upset because of what the “truth “ did to their lives, which is understandable.

  i broke all connection to the cult 40 years ago. But within 4 years my 3 kids had been poisoned against me and didnt want to see me any more. This caused many years of heartache. But 12 years ago i found out my older son had been d/f'd--and i set about tracing him through facebook. It took a while--but we soon got reconciled and now enjoy a good close relationship.

  My daughter is 50 on sunday--but ive given up hope with her.

  my younger son--he will be 43 next birthday--but we havent had any form of contact since 2001--and that was his written reply to me refusing any contact.

  But ive come to terms with it. It is a heavy price to pay for freedom.
