if someone asked to state briefly why you left the jw brotherhood what would you say?
F**ked up blood policy, 607 B.C.E bullsh*t, shunning, and realizing the Bible is wrong.

they are adding a second floor to this hall that they have had for at least 40 years.

i started by asking dumb questions .
Hey Johnny, sorry about sounding judgemental on my inital post and stuff. It was reactionary. I was just thinking about my dad when I read it and how he's a really quite mild kind of a witness person.. and I didn't like the idea of somebody yelling in his face or whatever.
Now that I've been thinking about it more I realize you do have a right to take an in-your-face kinda approach. It's a horrible, dangerous cult, I know it.
Anyways you are the good guy, and you got guts.

i was a jw for a number of years as a kid, but i don't remember them doing anything to help the community.
many churches in my area have soup kitchens, clothing/toy drives, and other services to help people in need.
do jehovah's witnesses ever use proceeds in this way, or are they all used to make more watchtowers, books, and kingdom halls?
I was in field service once with an elder, and we saw a homeless person begging for change outside of a supermarket. The elder said to me, "Doesn't it make you sick how some people live like animals?" I was just like, " Most homeless people are schizophrenic or clinically depressed, you know." He just pompously changed the topic when I called him on it. I never felt like a good person associating with JW's.

on the other board i go to there is a thread about congressman lynch.
he is going after religions that hide pedophiles, specifically the jw's.
i thought maybe he should get some letters of support.
Wow skally! Do you have any idea what talk show?

it happened one year ago today.
june 4, 2004. they say these things take time and that recovery gets easier as time goes on, and i suppose that's true.
but then again, some things leave a hole in your heart that will never go away.
(((david))). Take good care of yourself man.
I've also been thinking about if its best to just shut up about apostate stuff around family. It's just making my dad more and more recluse around me because of it. I don't really know. I think I'm gonna hold off a bit.

bonus points if you don't mention wt publications!!
the first book that ever made me cry was the grapes of wrath by john steinbeck.
most recently, i was reduced to a blubbering wreck reading the five people you meet in heaven by mitch albom.
Do apostate books count?
Crisis of Conscience.

johnny I agree with everything you said (obviously), but I'm sure you know the J dub mindset. Do you really think going off like that is effective? I'm only concerned about helping people out of the Watchtower. Reactions like that from guys like us freak dubs right [edit] out. They generalize all ex-witnesses as frothing at the mouth demon possesed people.
