we have been told there's no place else to go.
and to some degree mentally speaking, that is true especially if you were raised in the religion.
at 50 i was out of the organization's clutches.
If the internet existed back in the early 80s like it does today I may not have ever became a JW in the first place. However it was a few issues and especially the generation change teaching back in 1995 that opened my eyes to the fraud of the organization that set me to planning my exit.

i have not been to a meeting for about 2 years now.
i do not intend to go back but one thing has me baffled.
why do ones that have faded and been out for years return?

If the organization is so good as you say it is what the hell are you doing here?

suckinarut2,
You are so right about that! I had made some scathing remark about the organization on Facebook and I had cousins who were either longterm inactive and some not even baptized but became active and baptized and I was quickly deleted off their friend's list and have been avoided by them ever since.

i don't know how so many are happy or fine if thinking this life is it.
haven't lost parents yet, but when with them, sometimes i'll think of this song.

i saw another report indicating that the gunman may have targetting gop members.
Of course he was mentally ill. Him being an extreme left wing liberal democrat Bernie Sanders supporter. Maybe we should ban guns from liberal democrats.

Shepherdless, sounds like you have the same sick mentality as the shooter.
the guardian: .
russian intelligence agents hacked a us voting systems manufacturer in the weeks leading up to last year’s presidential election .
russian military intelligence carried out a cyber-attack on at least one us voting software supplier and sent spear-phishing emails to more than a hundred local election officials days before the poll.
Liberal democrats seem to forget about Ted Kennedy and Jimmy Carter going to the Russians, the KGB at the time, and asked for their help in the 1979 and 1980 political campaigns proving they are the biggest hypocrites. They just can't accept that their queen didn't win.
