  I DONT want their help! :D

  by TimothyT in

  1. watchtower

  hello people,.

  despite the advice given here, i thought it only fair to tell the elders that are calling me to 'help me' with my sexuality, that i dont want their help!

  yesterday one called.. he told me that he and another elder would like to speak with me to find out what the situation is.

  Be prepared that this indeed is not the end of it for them . That Elder will pow-wow with the other Elders and they will try again to get you to meet . Stick to your guns .

  To stop incessant phone calls and questioning I had to send a certified letter to the Elders hinting at legal action if they did not cease /desist .I went to my local Police station and filed a copy of the letter with them also (stating this in the letter to the Elders makes an impact ) . It has been over a year since I sent that letter and so far no one has tried to contact me again .

  Wishing you well

  Tonight I disassociated myself - after 24 years - had 2 hour meeting with Elder

  i am now sitting at home.

  my wife left with my little child.

  my fault (i dislike the word "fault", but don't have a better one right now).. it feels strange, relieved and free, at the same time it was all very strange.

  INTEL , Does it feel like you can breathe now ? I know once I made my decision and just did it ....it was such a relief . It is good you have some friends already in place to support you through this situation . I have been out for six yrs and have slowly come back into contact with other local faded JWs and df'd ones from my passed . It is nice now to be able to reminese with ones that know my history . You miss that after family and friends start jumping ship .

  No matter how hard the transition is .....it is so worth it ......freedom is priceless .

  Personality test based on how you listen to music

  by DJPoetech in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i designed a 4 question personality test that looks at the simple ways you listen to music.. it can determine from those questions your 4 letter mbti code.

  from there i included some fun links that goes deeper into the personality traits.. i have yet to try this in a larger forum such as this but was wondering the results and if i can develope this.. .

  it may prove useful in my eventual psychology studies.. just follow the link.

  How many will Jehovah KILL at armageddon?

  by jean-luc picard in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  well that depends on the world population.. .

  if he had done it it 1914, he would only have killed 2 billion.. if he had done it in 1960, then he would have killed 3 billion.. if he had done it in 1975 ( so now we know why he didn't) he would only have had 4 billion to kill.. so is the question of when armaggedon will come, related to how many he wants to kill?.

  interestingly this site ( but dont bother reading it all, its......well you'll see).

  An unfair test...

  by MrFreeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  according to the holy wt, satan and his demons influence humans to do bad things.

  as a result of the bad things that satan makes us do, we are going to be judged.

  is that really fair?

  I'm sorry I knocked on your door

  they say the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

  nowhere is that more evident, i think, than in the kingdom hall.

  like so many others that i knew, i thought the watchtower society had it right, that their answers were the correct ones.

  Thank you for sharing your story . I wish all those wanting to leave the JW's would be able to read such life stories and realize they too can escape . It is horrible to be in that spot where you think peace will only come by ending your own exisitence ....so very sad .

  It is wrong for her to treat you this way ,but you know she is conflicted because of the Jehovah Witness mind-set . KEEP the QUILT !! It shows her 'real' personality and ,love for you and the baby ,shining through . I am sure she is miserable missing out on your pregnancy .

  BTW you look radiant pregnant ! I watch everyday on facebook waiting for the big announcement of the arrival of your baby

  Yes your hormones are wrecking havoc on your emotions right now ....it just comes with the whole wonders of mother hood package . You keep sending your sister updates and hopefully the power of a new baby will melt her JW boundries ,she has set ,down .

  Be prepared ....from one mommy to another ....right after birth your emotions can swing more than you could ever imagined. Don't make any rash decisons during that time ,prepare your husband to be your sounding board and for him to be a rock for you .

  Much love to you dear ,and waiting excitingly to hear for baby announcements .

  Contact me on facebook if I can be a listening ear or for moral support ,Brenda J.
