i realise that there are many reasons for people leaving the org and some are very sensitive and difficult to discuss.
but i was wondering how many people, if they really think about it, were finally broken by the sheer workload as a jw.
someone replied to my thread yesterday (page 2), and discussed the average week for most jw`s.
Big thing for me is I never felt good enough. Told an elder once why should I bother doing anything because the small amount I'm doing isn't good enough and I never will do enough so might as well say eff it.

keep trying to get to your meetings remember the sister who walked 2 hours one way to feast at the spiritual banquet , or the bro who crossed crocodile infested waters to get to his meeting.. anyone remember any other guilt trip inducing illustrations?
While working isolated territory in Rwanda last year, a Witness met a man who was very happy to receive the Knowledge book and to have a Bible study. Right from the beginning, the man showed appreciation for the congregation meetings. (Heb. 10:24, 25) Though missing one leg from the knee down, he would cross a lake in a dugout canoe and walk four hours to get to the meeting place. He attended regularly, enrolled in the Theocratic Ministry School, and helped his children to learn about their Creator. How he rejoiced in the hope that soon he would be able to walk again with both legs!—Isa. 35:6.
Someone please define soon according to JW,s.
This guy has a miserable life ahead of him.

I've been reading the articles blondie posted their great. You couldn't make this stuff up if you wanted to.

Meeting attendance helps train those who join in the mighty chorus of praise to Jehovah. (Compare Psalm 22:22.) Thus, in the southern part of Honduras, there is a congregation called El Jordán. What is so special about this small group? It is their faithful meeting attendance. Of the 19 publishers, 12 have to cross a wide river to attend the meetings each week. This is not a big problem in the dry season, since they can cross the river by using rocks as stepping-stones. However, during the rainy season, conditions change. What was once an unimposing stretch of water becomes a torrent washing away everything in its path. To surmount this obstacle, the brothers and sisters have to be good swimmers. Before crossing, they put their meeting clothes in a tina (metal tub) and then cover it with a plastic bag. The strongest swimmer uses the tina as a buoy and leads the group across. Safe on the other side, they dry themselves, get dressed, and arrive at the Kingdom Hall cheerful and sparkling clean!—Psalm 40:9.

She goes to 9 meetings, gets 9 fingers cut off by her own father.
Hey, she'll get them all back in the new system plus then she'll have her dad there too
well worth the sacrifice. Riiiiiiiiiiight
I wonder if these people are still doing this crazy sheet since the end hasn't shown up like WT promsed?
the real reason why jehovahs witnesses refuse blood transfusions
jehovahs witnesses say that their refusal to accept blood transfusions is based on what the bible says about blood.
they refer to acts 15:20 where it says, "abstain from blood," and reason that transfusing blood is not abstaining from blood.. but what the bible says about blood is not the real reason why they refuse blood transfusions.
While they are teaching it is called "a true teaching of the Bible." When they stop teaching it is called "old light."
The fully brainwashed JW does not question any teaching from the WT.
It was done for a reason at that time.

Great comments, made me laugh, but I still remember sitting there hearing this BS and feeling
This is what really cracks me up. Living in a cold climate the elders cancel the meeting if there is 2 inches of snow on the ground, don't want to get a fender bender in the beamer you know. That sister in Africa if she loses a leg to the crocs she still got another one, riiiiiiiiiight.
when i was about 12 years old, i used to see a religious show on sunday mornings called "amazing prophecies".
what the ministers name was, i don't remember.
at the end of the show, he asked those who wanted to be saved and have jesus come into their heart, to pray along with him, so i prayed along with him, because i wanted to be saved.. about 13 years later, i become a j.w.
If the end comes the way the Bible says it will, but we don't know exactly whose interpretation will be played out, am I saved no matter who turns out to be correct?
I think you (and me) need to drop the middleman AKA as organized religon.
Wether your saved or not is between your heart condition and Jesus judgement of you.
