  Dan hasxa kind approach. Dont draw any lines in the sand or it will be there forever. No ncommitally respectful until you can ease away gently.dont take any stand now, or maybe ever. Just keep the wt reins off your neck.

  my jw spies tell me that the kingdom halls are empty compared to how they used to be, since i left 5 years ago.

  not saying they're empty because of me though.. is that what you are hearing?.

  Im glad cantleave is ok. This is such a tragedy for others. Its a crazy world. Neighbor just randomly shot. Children bullying each other to desth and its all so nuts that people putting extra big holes in their head seemsinnocuous in the grand scheme of things. I can barely work up an opinion on gay marriage. It seems pretty non-critical. Now im supposed to get my panties in a twist about anchor babies. Seriously. terrorism, murderous families. Abused kids and im supposed to fret cause someone wouldnt bake someone a cake

  As a Matter of Conscience, I Am Resigning from the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Sail Away in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  after listening to the hearings of the australian royal commission into institutional responses to child sexual abuse, i am no longer content to have simply walked away from the organization.

  as a matter of conscience, i do not want my name linked with the organization in any way.

  i know this letter has been posted previously, and i thank the author.

  What is an apostate, according to Geoffrey Jackson (GB member)

  by opusdei1972 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is what i found in the transcript related to the date august 14 2015 (royal comision of australia):.

  18 q. and if they don't actively disassociate, then they 19 will be disfellowshipped as apostate?

  20 a. no, an apostate is someone who actively goes against 21 what the bible teaches.. this is a half true.

  badly handled from Elders

  by Olivia Wilde in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i am still attending the kh, i actually recently became aware of the ttatt, what i believed came as a huge surprised for me, i wasn't raised as a jw and have been for about 15 years.

  i have always been a very open minded individual all my life always seeing both sides of any situation with logic and common sense and so i believe discovering all of the doctrines i have been taught sense 16 years of age, wasn't extremely hard for me to realize in my heart it was a lie.

  well it was me discovering the watchtower society being a ngo member of the un nations for 10 years, after that the snowball just got bigger for me.
