UNDERGROUND RAILROAD (helping JWs see)

by apocalypse in

i am an "active" jw.

i serve.

give talks.

ICBehindtheCurtain

GREAT! you guys are doing a great thing, saving the lives of those poor brainwashed people , my husband and I (faders) started doing this and helped quite a few out, mostly family and very close freinds, but as time wore on, we just couldn't stomach the meetings, and so....we haven't attended in about 3 mos, that's the longest we've stayed away, it's so great....we just don't want to go back.

Good luck to you, I hope you are able to help many people out.

One thing I think we can still do, and a few here are doing, is informing the public about this Cult, that way the householders answering the doors won't be caught offguard and will not listen to anything the JW's have to say, maybe they could have flyers to give to the JW's with facts about the WTS....that would be great!

Wow! Lady Liberty you're on a roll! Thank you for that, I'm gonna use it, I would love to somehow mail or email this anonymously to some JW's I know so they can start opening their eyes.

Thanks,

Thank you for those pictures Lady Liberty, if those don't make some JW's think, then they really are blind.

The Great Taboo Discussion---Suicides among former Jehovah's Witnesses

by The wanderer in

jw
friends

the great taboo discussionsuicides among former jehovah's witnesses to write about this discussion neither appeals to me nor does it make me feel comfortable to discuss it.. however, it is necessary to consider in light of all the trauma, negative experiences, and personal traged-.

ies that have happened to individuals on this board.

(what inspired me to write this subject was a bone chilling account .

I knew a very nice bethelite in his late 20's at the time, back in the early 80's who was going through severe depression (I wonder why? ), he was asked to leave bethel, ended up in a mental institution and jumped out a window to his death, very sad. I also tried this a few times, I thought this was the only way out, to escape abuse by my MS stepfather, I figured I would close my eyes and wake up in the "New System" and everything would be wonderful, thankfully the method I used did not work and I just slept it off, at another time there was a guy I was dating he was an MS I was 15 he was 20 (stupid I know, but my stepfather wanted to marry me off), it ended up being emotionaly devastating to me and I no longer wanted to live, the "New System" looked very attractive once again, I told my mom I no longer wanted to go back to meetings, since it was devastating for me to see him and his new girlfreind showing off in front of me. My mom convinced me to give the "Truth" another try and rely on Jehovah, I did that and stayed in that CRAP for all these years. After that experience I decided to empower myself, and read numerous self help books, which helped me out of the depression and helped me regain my self confidence. And here I am, I don't dwell on the bad things that happened to me, cause LIVING WELL IS THE BEST REVENGE!!!!! And today, I can honestly say that those that wronged me have paid dearly, many times over, and I had nothing to do with it. I forgave them and hold no grudges, my life is too precious to waste a single moment thinking about those people.

All I have to say about all those poor people that have lost their lives because of this CULT is that I hope their death was not in vain, I hope this wakes up some of those JW lurkers enough to see, that it's not an innocent religion, it is a DAMAGING CULT, if they in any way help anyone get into this religion they are risking being guilty of causing someones death, including their own children. Some JW's have said "oh, even if I find out it's not the truth, it's still the best way to live", well THINK AGAIN!

for all the unnecessary lifes lost to this CULT

CO Birdsong & DO Episcopo

by ICBehindtheCurtain in

hey guys, do any of you know whatever happened to these xjw's?

i'm curious to know, gene birdsong was a co in tx and was df'd for apostasy he was a very nice man, very caring wouldn't it be great if he was posting here?

episcopo was a do, he was also a very nice man, was one of the few that gave exhilerating talks, that did not put you to sleep, he was df'd a year ago, that was totally unexpected, i wonder what happened, these guys probably found out the truth about "the truth"!

ICBehindtheCurtain

You are absolutely right Minimus, I'm hoping those shockwaves will drag hundreds of people out of this Crappy religion or at least make them start thinking.

News about the end at the yearly business meeting

by ocsrf in

jw
friends

that's right folks, the fds in convinced that we are so deep into the end of the system of things they feel it will happen at any moment.. it's funny that this should be taken serious since this sort of thing has been said many times in the past.

however, many of those at that meeting are so drawn in that they believe it as if they saw god himself speak it.. this came from someone who attended, perhaps someone else has direct quotes or other tidbits they can share with us.

One year from now, I will be asking my totally brainwashed regular pioneer mom, and other JW family members what happened with the WTS prediction that False Religion was going to end? Since nothing will have happened then.

Is it possible for someone to "Love being a JW"?

by JH in

jw
friends

a few days ago, i met an old lady that has a jw as neighbour.

she knows that jw couple since years, although she isn't a jw.

so, i asked that old lady, "do you still see that jw couple once in a while", hoping for some kind of juicy news..... so, my question is, "how can a person love to be a jw" when so many others just "hate" being in that religion?.

ICBehindtheCurtain

To many it's just a social club where they can meet and greet new ones, gossip and criticize anyone who doesn't tow the line, also get informed about what brothers do for a living in case they need to make use of their services for the much expected brotherly discount, and if they are structure freaks they will fit right in, they have a schedule to follow and enough rules to keep them busy for quite a while....If they are snobby then they will love it, because they feel like they know the "Truth" whereas everyone else is so fooled in their stupid little religions...the females usually look forward to occasions like assemblies and the Memorial when you can get new outfits to show off this always adds excitement to their dull lives.

A sad life really.
