  i'm new here but have been lurking here for a couple of months.

  i am 3rd gen born in but have been inactive for a few years but always had the intention to make another go of the truth, but not now that i know ttatt.

  i became inactive due to the inhumane treatment from family members who are elders.

  Another elder came and told me I'm not an apostate and no-one can judge me.

  i'll call him bear, like teddy bear because he's big and nice.

  bear's the coboe, an intelligent but jittery man who suffers from a host of anxiety disorders.

  he 'just happened' to be driving down my street after the group, and 'just happened' to notice i was at home, tending to some animals.

  You see him standing at the back of the hall before he goes up, puffing like a bellows and psyching himself up. Constantly exposing yourself to a stressor in that manner can't be good for you.

  You'd think someone in his position would relish being on the platform by now, or at least be so used to it that he wouldn't be so anxious about it. Maybe this is how cognitive dissonance is manifesting in him.

  The most annoying part of Terror attacks, shootings, etc.

  i am going to gripe about something that is so annoying and i know people here see it, as we all do.

  every single time a terrorist attack or a shooting takes place today.

  there is an endless amount of bull crap false stories, pictures, video clips, etc.

  I hear you, free. I try to stay away from the social media circus, Facebook, and the 24 hour TV news feeds as much as possible.

  been lurking here for years but finally decided to come out, at least partially.

  of all things, the post of 'bats in the belfry' re: the supposed break up of gb member geoffrey jackson and his cute (ex-?

  ) fiancee a few days ago spurred me to do so.

  L3G, I didn't see anything in that thread about a breakup, or did I just miss it? Bats in the belfry is just speculating why they aren't married yet; nothing definite about a breakup.

  She died of multiple sclerosis, a terrible disease. I've been raising funds for research the last 4 years, which is why I do the 5 day 300 mile bike ride, The Ride Across Minnesota, each July. I'll keep her in mind as I pedal away this year.

  AAWA ... It's not too late to change the name.... any suggestions?

  by Calebs Airplane in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  first, i'd like to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation to cedars, barbara and the rest of the staff who put this together... it's something we all hope will have great success in exposing the watchtower's continuous deception and manipulation.. however, i don't think it's too late to change the name to something less militant or less confrontational.... my humble suggestion is ... pafjw (pacifist association of former jehovah witnesses).

  Get it through your head, they will not change their name. They've discussed it as a board and they all agree to keep it as is, as is their right.

  The Quiet One - go back to page 13 and look for Vidiot's post with the "bat design" - put it on articles of clothing and sell them as a source of income for AAWA.
