interviewer - why not?
interviewer - and why do you think they would tell you that?
interviewer - why was that?
ow man this is horrifying and frietning to me i cried when i read this
i will never give my alliegence to anything blindly Again at least i can say i learned a valuble lesson for the years wasted. my heart goes out to all the victims of this cult. its amazing how blind all of us were when we were in.
i remember one of my childhood friends was found dead and the police said he committed suicide.
i just could not believe it because my friend was a "devout" jw almost franatical about it.
now years later since i have seen both sides of the coin i am beginning to wonder if my friend did indeed kill himself.
yes i know of one who had killed himself and only a handful at the hall knew what had really happend. i remember how upset it had made me i was depressed for what must have been a year. this really does back up the reprot i read about how witness are 9 times more likely to have some kind of psycological problems.

my son has been studying the knowledge beek against her will and i cant change that at the moment but i thought it would be a good idea for him if i had other people who have had time to explore other religions who could tell us whats wrong or inaccurate with these chapters 1-4
other then the fact it was writen by wts

out of pure curiosity, not because i read it daily, but i read the daily text today in the spanish little booklet.
i found it to be a direct attack to 'apostates' in the internet.. can someone scan it and print it here in english?!
pretty please!!!.
i to believe it was a direct attack on apostates if you want to call us that, i for one dont like that term. they wrote the information with intent to put us in a bad light with the sole purpose of keeping jws away.
we however in this board talk to eack other to support each other and continue our fight i do not believe that we come here and talk to our friends in this board simply as a way of attacking the governing body but rather as a way of giving out the information we found.
now outside this board i will be the first to say it
attack away
fire in the hole
(but always with christian love)
...when exiting the watchtower?
i thought i was going absolutely mad.
told lies and invented other stories and scenerios to hide the fact that i was coping with coming out of a cult.
well i have not been throught most of theses things yet and i feel a little nervouse because i know that i will probubly in the next year or so as i might have to battle for the kiddies. but one thing i did notice evan after i made my mind up about the org two of my work friends were talking about conditions today and how bad they are and the first thing to pop into my mind was oh i have to tell them about the last days. i am glad that i try very hard to think before i speak because i have told them just a few minutes before all things i found out about the borg. it is nerve racking i think to find these mental device in our minds evan after we learned how full of **** they are
man do i need a spell checker
a few financial figures that happen to have fallen into my sweaty palms.
while only a small piece of the wt's financial jigsaw puzzle, they effectively illustrate the level of $ under the society's control.

i just found out today that a lady i had know for several years now had a horrible tragedy happen in her family.
her 8 year old son died yesterday from a gunshot wound to the head.
what i was told is the 8 year old told his older brother he was going out to shoot a rifle and the older brother tried to take the gun from his brother and the gun went off and killed him.
i am truely sorry to hear of this. no one will be the same after this how horrible. evan thought the older boy did the right thing in trying to get the rifflle away from the child he will still live with this guilt. i hope too that he will be able to get therapy and some how make it throught this.

when i talked to my mother yesterday, everytime she would try to defend the watchtower organization, she would say, and jehovah says..." i would respond, "noooo.
the watchtower organization says that.
show me the scripture in the bible that says, "jehovah says" right now".
resistance is futile
oh wait thats the borg ahh same thing
this has always puzzled me.....can anyone shed some light as to what it really was?
hi everyone im new here. i remeber reading a paper that talked about mind control and it stated that the cross verse stake was to reinforce the idea of seperateness from the evil worldlings, same with holidays and such.
