Stoping the Watchtower hardcore
by Genesis inas anyone thought of hardcore ways to stop the wt quickly and firmly?
sure there is things like killing the gb or placing a bomb in the brooklyn bethel but these ways are strongly not acceptable and the jw would think that the great tribulation arrived.... .
i was thinking of things like : .

JWs and Double-Lifers: "If we leave, where else do we go?" —Part 1
by AuldSoul in(or "why is it so hard to leave?").
many seem to believe there must be an organization that represents all their beliefs.
it also seems like a lot of them want to find it before leaving the one they are in.

My only comment is how MANY places I've discovered there are to go.

Why Do Some "JWs" Do This???..........
by minimus ini know of some witnesses that haven't go out in service or attended a meeting in years.
most "new ones" (to them and they could be witnesses for 10 years!
) that live in the territory have no clue of these "witnesses".

It takes a long time to make the break, and many people are 'fading' without even knowing it. I suspect that they'd accept a transfusion if their life was on the line though.

Will DA'ing myself be better for my children's future?
by indoubt inbackground
i have been fading away, and considered fully "inactive" for over 2 years now.
my wife is still a very active jw, and she brings my 2 children (5 & 3) to the meetings and service on a regular basis.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.................... I think not.
(1) My children will clearly see my position vis-a-vis the JW religion, and (2) as they will grow older, they will also hopefully notice that something is really wrong with a religion that forbids my parents, sister, in-laws to have a relationship with me just because we do not share the same beliefs
OR: 1) You mortally wound your marriage causing your wife to side with the cult, and convince the children that Daddy is apostate and therefore we can't listen to anything he says, and 2) as they grow older they will still only have their mother guiding them because she's the only one Jehovah lets them listen to.
If you're at least allowed to talk to them, you'll have a chance of being in their lives.
Also note: if you're still a JW, you're still the Spiritual Head. If any crazy crap is going down, it's your right to put a stop to it. If you're not a JW, spiritual warfare such as doing crazy crap behind your back is justifiable.

Christians - Do you believe the flood occurred?
by AlmostAtheist inwhen i was a bible believer, i accepted the flood.
the frozen mammoths and seashells on mountaintops were "evidence", but the only needed proof was simply that the bible said so.
as a christian, do you believe the flood story?.

I've never been able to understand why the animals that disembarked from the ark and went in different directions, didn't leave a trail of their species behind them, ie, why there aren't marsupials from Mt Wherever to Gondwanaland, pandas from Mt Wherever to China...
Then again, I'm only a Christian in that I believe that a man named jesus was once alive who said some nice things and they were well recorded and a new government was founded on the ashes of the religious movement left behind. That's probably because I really don't know as much about it as I used to think.

Lo' and Behold - I start hearing Kingdom Melodies in the coffee shop.....
by AK - Jeff ini was peacefully reading an old copy of stephen cox' article "can the truth survive the internet", and all of a sudden i realize that the instrumental music playing is the d*mn kingdom melodies.
it was actually pretty good.
it was that instrumental cd released sometime back with a lot of harp, piano, and woodwinds in it.

Before or after?
by flag ini'm curious, when you made your decision to leave the org.
did you do it before or after looking at this kind of internet sites?.
in my case i made my decision without ever looking any of this websites.

sass_my_frass
I can't pin the decision down, so I'd have to say that sneaking a peek a few years ago got the ball rolling. I had to be disfellowshipped to happily sign on, but a few months after that I realised I never want to go back, because I'd seen too much on the web to pretend it was believable.

Trapped by cult thinking, the poor chica, but she won't like to hear it. Slowly slowly. Love her lots. Lok after both of you and your children.
Hey one day, when it's okay to be confrontational, ask her what she'd do if one of the kids had an accident needing blood, and you and she and some elders are at the hospital fighting out. Will she side with the elders, or save her child's life? She knows what the right answer is to that, and she should be made to face it sometime.
