  Survey: How long were you in the cult vs what year you were baptized

  hi people,.

  i want as much data as possible on the effect of the internet on the time captured by the cult.. please answer the three following questions about yourself or about someone you know (for example, if your parents or grandparents were jw's and left).

  1) were you raised as a jw, or did you convert?.

  The Elders are Coming Help!

  by LaurenM in

  so the elders keep bugging me and pestering me about having a meeting with them to "introduce me to my new congregation" for some reason (do any ex elders know what that even means??).

  i keep postponing and making excuses and they are getting more and more aggressive.

  i finally agreed for them to come over today, but really don't want to..should i hide from them again?

  if you do meet with these self important cult-cops----tell them your really struggling to make ends meet--ask them repeatedly to help you--a small loan--just a few hundred to tied you over.

  maybe sutcliffe really does think he will live forever in the new system.

  the more you think about it---this couldnt be better publicity for this crazy cult.

  So my best friend was reinstated last night

  by LexIsFree in

  so my brother-in-law, who is also my best friend, was reinstated last night.

  i had an idea that he was trying to make his way back to the cult because i had been texting and calling him for about 3 months now and no answer from him.

  when he text me this morning to tell me the news i wasn't shocked, but i was saddened.

  i wonder what the percentage is of those d/f ones who have realised they can get reinstated to please family then slowly--quietly fade away so they can lead a normal " worldly " life ?

  was sipping my coffee, browsing here and there, and then focussed on reading here regarding arc, picked up some world news on same subject - and wondered if jw org would publish any information on their news site.. then, i flicked to jw talk - anything in their public news forum?

  a newish headline 'australia and jehovah's witnesses' or something like that - i entered link - web page error, not found.

  nope.

  they are gods chosen few--they are going to survive armageddon any day soon-----its totally understandable why they feel like this.

  smug is the word best describes them

  I never understood field service...

  by Joliette in

  2. friends

  it was always boring, and i was afraid that i was gonna get attacked by a dog.

  i actually almost got attacked by a rottweiler once.

  i didnt get paid for it, nobody listened to us, i actually had guys make passes at me while i was out doing street corner, i was always afraid i would get grouped and raped.

  Sex and Marriage

  by nicolaou in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  most religions indoctrinate a standard sexual 'morality' into their followers.

  sex before marriage is wrong, gay sex is wrong, same sex marriage is wrong, masturbation is wrong.. let's not turn this into another religion bashing thread (too easy), i was wondering how much of that pre-packaged thinking you still hold to?.

  i still value marriage, more than ever.
