  Governing Body Subhumans: Merry Christmas

  by 144001 in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  having recently experienced the trauma of watching a loved one proudly refuse blood despite being told it was medically necessary and that refusing it would be extremely risky, i realized exactly where i stand in life.

  in addition to my childhood being exploited and made miserable by the watchtower cult, that same cult now threatens to take loved ones from me via the blood policy.. .

  so, on this day after christmas, i am raging mad, and i want to express my christmas wish for the governing body, the subhuman gristle responsible for this illogical and despicable blood policy.

  "Revenge" is never "decent," and it never changes the facts it is a response to. Two wrongs don't make a right, except in the minds of the mentally ill.
  
  I believe you should always arrange for the mentally ill to take out revenge attacks on your behalf.

  Hi Kerri from over the ditch.When I began studying with the witnesses many moons ago I was blown away with their ability to answer my questions,in fact,they even brought up questions that I had never even thought to ask.And the answers were often plausible and satisfying.Now,22 years later,I am horrified at how easily I gave my heart and my MIND to this organisation.You said" but something inside says get more info."Man are you lucky something inside spoke to you!!Learn all you can and then form your own opinion.Maybe post something on 'Friends' so more people see you and welcome.Pete.
  
  Oops,hi onetwofour.

  greetings my brothers.

  i have put a chart of future events that are to come, aided by the holy spirit.it is for anyone that has an intrest in what the bible has to say towards our future.

  we have to start with the long purple line down the middle, as it is written in rev 20:1-15 and 1 cor 15:24-28.there it mentions at 1 cor 15 that "death" is the last enemy.

  the kids were sleeping, and one brother came up to me "is there a microphone on thats picking up some loud noise"?..

  i said "all mikes are off except for the stage".

  he said "there's gotta be something because the noise is annoying!".

  I never had any problem with snoring babies.The slightest 'peep' out of them and they'd be belted outside.No elder had to tell me my kids were noisy.

  Self Mutilation - In A "Spiritual Paradise"? Awake Feb '06

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i found this latest article in the awake to be quite remarkable.

  while they try to explain cutting yourself as a sickness in the world, it.

  nevertheless makes clear that some witness kids are committing this self multilation, too.

  Over half the members of my psych group self-harm.Razors,ballpoint pens and cigarette burns are the most common.I think I'll ask how many were raised as Witnesses on Thursday morning.

  before any of you jump all over me about how i could love any jw's let me explain and just vent here.

  some of you may have ready my hubby's post about us leaving the area.

  work, and wanting to fade has made this necessary.

  My Witness sister is going insane and falling into depression

  by free2beme in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as i grew up, my sister was always a pretty strong person.

  when she was 21 she got baptized after she married a worldly man, and they have been married 17 years.

  he never went into the religion, and never even attended one meeting and has told me that he never will.

  Depression has very specific symptoms and even a very average GP can diagnose it fairly accurately.BUT,the problem with Jehovahs Happy People is that depression is not an option.So the GP will be given answers to questions that minimize the symptoms and of course,letting a worldly person make any connection with your religion and your mental health is just too much.So..the doctor may be thrown a series of red herrings and never actually get to the meat of the problem.
  
  I have tried barrowloads of various anti-depressants from tri-cyclics,MAOI's,lithium and SSRI's and none of them have worked BY THEMSELVES.I put in hours and hours of work at the hospital with talk therapy groups and psych. counselling.And I now post here.The relief that others understand can be very healing.
  
  I have observed,over many years, that some people just have to have a 'breakdown' before anything life-changing happens.If that happens you just have to be there for the ride.
  
  Take care of your sister,I know you will.Pete

  One Good Reason to Register and Post Here

  whe i came across this forum at first i just read the various posts for a month or so.

  deep down, i knew the real truth was not with the watchtower organization, but i couldn't pin point exactly why i felt that way, and why i had so many doubts.

  then i saw something that made me want to jump right into the conversation.

  Everything you said YC relates exactly to me.The sense of betrayal and secrecy shocked me.My degree of shock affected my wife so much she had to find out for herself.Even after having faded I would not even view apostate literature and next thing you know I google JW,find a few sites,see a whole bunch of people like myself and start posting!Scary and thrilling!

  " and he is living with his mom who is Jehovah"--I think your boyfriends name is Jesus!
  
  But seriously,the tenor of your post gives me a bad vibe.Dysfunctional families are pretty thick on the ground in JWdom,especially if there is disfellowshipping and shunning going on.Your BF family sound like they might fit that mould.Stop here a while and take things very slowly.I hope things work out for you both but be prepared to run.Pete
