  Update after talking to family services.

  by BLISSISIGNORANCE in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i rang family services this afternoon.. the woman i spoke to was very helpful and honest.. firstly i told her i had rung because the person that abused my child had been seen by me pushing a toddler in a pram and by a friend of mine tickling and touching children at the meetings.

  i expressed how fearful i am for the children in the congo.. she wanted the pedos name, my name, my kid's name etc.

  she asked what he did to my kid and when i told her she said he was an abuser..........no kidding!

  WTS positives- A therapy project

  by zugzwang in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so my therapist told me that if i am ever going to heal emotionally and psychologically from the damage done by the wts that i need to not just focus on the negative, but to think about how the wts helped make me a better person.

  i suppose it is because of the wts that i never got involved with illegal drugs or gangs.. .

  because of the wts i was always a good student in school.

  Face it - some people WANT to be a JW!

  by Dawn in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after many many conversations with my family i've come to the conclusion that some people just want to be a witness.

  they need that security of being told all the answers - of having their decisions made for them - and the tight social group they're involved in.. the truth is - it's much harder when you don't have all the answers and you have to think for yourself.

  i guess some people just aren't ready to face that.

  Why this is not xjw forum

  by kls in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i used to wonder why with so many xjws on here ,or nearly xjws on this forum ,why it was not named so .

  that way we would not have so many troll's and practicing jws come on this site looking for people in their own religion ( cough ) .

  now when i see a newbie join and they are practicing jws ,i think maybe just maybe by them not knowing most here are out of the cult and they read the threads posted by so many knowing and knowledgable people on the forum ,that some may log off and actually think of some things that have seen.

  The Surreal JW Horror show our agony and anguish

  by Undaunted Danny in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the anguish and the agony of having to renounce the lifelong convictions of one's heart.the surreal horror to know that it was all a lie!

  for the 33 years that i was a j-ho,the central theme of discussion among active jehovah's witnesses was their inescapable mortality.here i am 47 years old and the onset and onrush of middle-age can be overwhelming and devastating.

  when they die they don't go to heaven.many like myself,squandered our youth for the watchtower.years of are vital prime spent in the borg are gone now forever.

  Sad News...

  my mom had her valve replacement and triple by-pass surgery today.

  the operation lasted five hours, and they had just gotten her to her room at 8:00pm when she went into cardiac arrest.

  the doctor tried everything, even opening up her chest and massaging her heart.

  My Brother Begged Me To Come Back To Jehovah & His Organization!!!

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i recieved a 7 page "note" from my brother and his wife pleading with me to come back to jehovah god and his organization.

  he said the devil was after me and my family and that the results will be disastrous unless i come back to "jehovah's protective custody".

  also, it was strongly implied that unless my family went back to meetings and went out in field service, most jws, including family members would not attend my daughter's wedding and reception.my wife, daughter and i have been overtaken by the devil, according to him.

  an open letter to all jehovah's witnesses.

  dear friend, .

  what caused you to come and read the posts of so many of your former brothers and sisters who have either been disfellowshipped or have chosen to walk away from the society and the 'truth'?

  Sickening abuse case in the UK

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. current

  i'm sure anyone in the uk will have heard about the poor little 8 year old girl who was subjected to appalling abuse and killed.. i just feel so angry right now...how could so many police, doctors, social workers let her down and fail to act when the signs were so clear and pointed out to them?.

  what are they there for, for goodness sake?.

  they should all be sacked for incompetence and failing to do what they get well paid for.
