Actually, what JWGoneBad said just shows that belief in god is nothing more than selfish and born out of emotions like fear. It's the very essence of grasping for straws.

Who deserves the title of king of apostasy ?
by Chook ini think this would be a noble endeavour..

Ray Franz, the OG apostate.
Today the crown would go to Cedars. That doesn't mean that there aren't others out there making a difference, but he's everywhere and I know for a fact that he's helped a lot of people in exiting the cult. He hits lots of different mediums of information and has a voice to his message that many like to hear. He's also quite well researched and produces good content.
Obviously passing the crown doesn't mean following any one man, or woman, it just means that the person is the most well known authority on the matter and this is a thread on a forum without much context. I wouldn't take any of this too seriously.

EMDR Therapy Anyone?
by Brian J intwo+ months into marital counseling for my wife (pimi) and i (pimo).
wife after decades of marriage decides for the first time to bring up separation due to, drum-roll please...... absolute endangerment of spiritual life.
a spouse may constantly try to make it impossible for the mate to pursue true worship or may even try to force that mate to break god’s commands in some way.

Wait, she's bringing up separation for bullshit reasons and YOU are ordered to therapy? Am I missing something?
I thought EMDR was about helping to bring back old trauma and to rewire the brain's response. I've never done it but it's talked about on episodes of The Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast that I like.
So when are you setting an appointment for your wife to meet with Steve Hassan?

Really, what part of life can't JWs screw up if they're involved in any way. I don't see why you would throw out all of the hard work done for that reason.

Wow, listened to them dissect the videos and that was hilarious. I haven't seen the videos yet (can't stomach them often) but the description was amazing.
As a side note, I loved the "thoughts and prayers" diatribe at the beginning. My wife loved it all too.

Oh yeah, glad The Prodigal Boys are back! I listen to them, Critical Thinkers, How To Heretic, Zealot (from Australia I think), and The Thinking Aheist.
Oh, and This JW Life and "shunned", of course. It's funny, I'm definitely scratching my own itch with shunned. I do the interviews so I hear them then, edit them so I've heard them again, and then I'm still excited when they come out and listen a third time, lol. Sometimes my wife listens to them with fresh ears before release to try to catch any edits I missed.
I love podcasts. I listen to a wide variety on everything from home maintenance to mental illness to business and finance. I'll have to check out some of those on your list. I always listen to Bill Burr's Monday Morning Podcast. He's a comedian that I like. I have a huge list that I rotate through.

Oh, I'll throw this out there for you SIAR2.
Wanna hear something funny? Listen to How To Heretic 021 - The Jawbone of an Asshole.
You may have heard it already. I think it may have been you that recommended it to me. Anyway, the story starts just after the intro and they go through the whole story of Samson. Had me in tears.

In case you want to see mass quantities of ignorance / stupidity on display....a dinosaur thread on JWTalk

Holy crap, that's one big pile of cognitive dissonance there. Post #22 is a big uh-oh. Tortuga is literally asking to have his "thinking readjusted". Someone sees a hole in this. That's why we weren't to "speculate" (dubspeak for "think"). Things don't add up. Now he needs "readjusting" to put his brain away.
Great share!
