Thank you for the very generous offer. I am more than happy to purchase my copy and I am reasonably confidant that most other exBethelites will do likewise. I wish you the very best of success with your book and your life.

I just donated to Amnesty International. They take credit cards. Perhaps you can put your money where your mouth is and make a donation yourself.

Or perhaps you are not facing your 'shadow' with honesty and fearlessness?

jephthah's daughter as an example of what a girl wants to be when she grows up??.
a burnt offering?!!.
My comment got erased from my post. Here is a primary example of 'do as I say, not as I do'. Geoffrey Jackson's wife died in 2009 and some time later he remarried. Why in the world would a so-called member of the 'anointed remnant' who expects to be taken to heaven (raptured if you will) any minute when the great tribulation starts bother to get married again? Could he not put every fiber of his being into preaching, preaching, preaching, preaching about the imminent Armageddon and not be using up his emotional and physical energy in the marriage arrangement? Perhaps he doesn't really take the whole thing seriously but expects the flock to take him seriously? The Apostle Paul's words should be on his heart : "Are you loosed from a wife? Stop seeking a wife. ...the scene of this world is changing...The unmarried man is anxious for the things of the Lord, how he may gain the Lord's approval. But the married man is anxious for the things of the world, how he may gain the approval of his wife, and he is divided." - 1st Corinthians 7:27, 31-34. Yet the men like him on the Governing Body serve up the garbage contained in the video in the OP. I learned a long time ago not to put too much stock into what these men expound and pontificate on. Rather I watch their conduct and actions. 'You can learn a lot from a dummy'.

my latest following on youtube- crashcourse.
this one is on existentialism.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yadvrdlmkhs.
i swear if i'd seen this video in my youth i likely would never have got baptized.
pale.emperor, if you want to learn about how to 'apply' existential philosophy to your life in a pragmatic way, than I would highly recommend that you read this book. It is rather long and comprehensive but still easily understood. No need to wade through all the writings of Dostoyevsky, Camus, James, Tillich, Sartre, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard or Kafka and distill their thoughts into a single 'philosophy of life'. This book will help you put a mirror up to you psyche and then you will be able to determine how you want to answer the question of your life.
Old Navy..........Although he is not 'officially' as Existentialist, Viktor Frankl's LOGOTHERAPY has a strong foundation in existential theory. To quote him on love: "The truth-that love is the ultimate and the highest goal to which to which man can aspire. Then I grasped the meaning of the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief have to impart: The salvation of man is through love and in love."
i helped, unfortunately, many people to become baptized jws.
recently, over the last few years, i saw many of my students who were still “ in the truth “ lament that i was no longer associating or active in the faith.. i do feel bad that i did such a good job that most of them still are in the cult.. are your teachers still around or did they wise up and leave the lord’s organization?

Is The Person Who Helped (Forced) You (To) "Get Into The Truth (Jehovah's Witness Religion)" Still Around?
No....my god intoxicated, religiously fanatical, dyed in the wool Jehovah's Witness mother died 19 years ago next month. Still believing that Armageddon was imminent .
