  this is the first time i feel comfortable posting something.

  i've been a lurker for over a year and i must say there are a lot of courageous people here who left the watchtower.

  thank god for the internet and sites like this.

  Is there something wrong with me?

  i just read david_10's thread "my mother died..." 13 years ago i called my mother, after i had left the lie because i'm gay.

  i hadn't been disfellowshipped at that point, but she told me she didn't want to keep in contact because "being homosexual is one of the worst things.

  " i told her ok and have never tried to contact her again.

  Hi Chris

  Although not being in the same situation as yourself I thought I could contribute. My mum too is a dyed in the wool dub. When I knew that I could no longer pretend that everything was alright and go along with what she demanded it scared me more than the elders scare me! It took me about 3 years and then finally I worked up the courage to tell her. Her reaction floored me. She was more reasonable than I could have expected. Of course she was extremely upset over it and still is. Her reaction surprised me though.

  Ultimately I wish you peace and solace on your path.

  What would you do? Follow-up

  in an earlier post i spoke of a young relative who is 16 and pregant and wanted me to help her get an abortion without the knowledge of her parents.. well i got the young girl to speak with her parents.

  i accompanied her.

  i wasn't 100% comfortable with my advice to tell her parents, because they are both dubs to the letter and dad is a hot head - he and i had numerous fights as kids growing up.

  Pratt I will certainly say a prayer for your poor cousin. I think that it is wonderful you have made it clear to her that she will always have a safe haven available to her.

  ATTENTION District Convention Attendees!

  by RichieRich in

  2. friends

  at some convention sites, there will be protests by apostates.

  at other conventions, apostates will covertly slip in and leave messages on cars.

  however, not everyone has the fortitude to protest nor the time.

  Hats off to Ez3 and RichieRich.

  It probably wouldn't hurt for you to advertise this on some of the other boards too. If you can get this out to as many conventions around the world as possible I think you may achieve your goal!

  Well done!

  Thank you Shelley. I wonder how many other ex dubs have turned to substances to develop confidence...

  What is the dumbest reason you where taken to the back room?

  by skyman in

  2. friends

  mine was for giving a sister that i grew up with the watchtower that dealt with birthdays being on the same level as anniversaries.

  she quit going because she could not understand the societies position on birthday's.

  the elders were mad because i knew how she would react and they thought i did this to cause problems.

  Because my breasts were distracting one of the elders. He had already cheated on his wife with a young pioneer sister some years before so I guess they were scared it might happen again. Of course it was all my fault. Damn my D cup breasts!!!
