how widespread is it among jehovah's witnesses and how do they cope with it?

i am rather new here, so i may be repeating a worn out subject.
however, for me it is rather a new experience, since i have only just recently stopped going to the kh.
my heart has never really been in it, though i am not in total disagreement and have made some nice friends in "the truth".
Welcome Alienagent! Your experiance is nearly identical to mine. Whilst I left as a teenager, it was pretty much the same treatment, even trying to get my wife and kids invovled with guilt trips when the shunning didn't work on me. It was only when it became known that my wife and I had become members of the Baha'i Faith that they gave up, in fact, it seemed they became fearful of my presence. The silence was golden!

just saying hi, and i am soooooo glad to find this site.
i have been out of the org.
for about 7 years now, and am just now feeling fully free.
They say Mules, Missourians and JWs are the hardest animals to re-train! Welcome and bring your hsbnd on. We'd love having you both!

okay all you that have the opportunity to express yourselves on your licence plates.... it's time to re-new my pickup registration.

it can be all letters, all numbers or any combination thereof.
Good ones Richie!

i got a call from the ex, she was in tears, and said that our son was struck by car while riding his bike to work.
when i got to the er, he was lying there in the bed.
he was bruised & scratched.
xjw, my thoughts to you from one who nearly lost a son as well.

It can have a hypen or one space anyplace in between the places. Given that, what you do to express yourself? Maybe...JWD YES....XJW YES....1914 NO ??

last night i had a very disturbing nightmare.
i don't get nightmares often, but this one was pretty intense and detailed.
most of my dreams are either ok, confusing, or just a tad disturbing.
lovedubs, I see you still hang on to the JW mantra about using a fraction of our brains! That has never been substantiated, in fact it flies in the face of evidence. Sorry I'm not able to quote references now, but I remember in psych class many years ago making that claim ( a hold over from JW days) and being destroyed in front of the class by the professor. At least I had the wherewithal not to claim I got the information from the Afake magazine!

luke 21:8 - he replied: "watch out that you are not deceived.
for many will come in my name, claiming, 'i am he,' and, 'the time is near.
' do not follow them.. this scripture clearly says those claiming to be christ, warning of the end approaching and that we shouldn't follow them.
Kida, you're spot on! None of the religions that preceeded Jesus time "rejected" Him, nor did Muhammed who came 600 years after Him. By biblical standards, as quoted above, Muhammed and His followers who endorsed Jesus as "thee Christ" are "in" and the others are too by the similarity of their moral, ethical and spiritual teachings.

following on a little from 2 topics (xjw critical mass) and (the real reason jw's don't accept blood) sorry but don't know how to show the links, i got to thinking: .
if the society were to finish publishing and closed down because of say bankruptcy from lawsuits, how long do you think the worldwide brotherhood would last?.
i feel this is a good question to ask those still in.would they still worship jehovah without the rigmarole of 5 meetings, personal study and preaching work and the monthly kingdom ministry and other regular literature.
Fear not! Robert would step up to the plate and create an electronic Church of Jehovah!
