It took me almost 2 years after I had left before I would look at any objective literature about the borg. This forum is and was the starting point for many like myself who needed to move on. So no matter what, each and everyone who visits or posts here has to let it all out, no matter how old you are, nor the circumstance. We are here to listen , to vent and remember, Helping is part of healing. So thanks to all of you who help me heal.

7I SALUTE YOU ALL!
by new boy ini have been on and off this forum for 4 1/2 years.
its a nice place to vist ---------------but i can't live here.. i think i have made peace with my 52 years as a "watchtower slave" and as chris said in the movie "platoon"--------"but it will always be with me in my heart and my mine"----------------and as he said also "we now have a duty to help others, so maybe they will not have to experience the waste years as we have".. so let us be patient with all who visit here.----------- because i think of myself, many years ago, at 21 years old, the self rightious nazis jw.
who if i met today, would have no problem pouring gas on me and setting me on fire!-----------most people need time to figure this all out------it took me 52 years -----------yes thats right "the dub"ist person on the board.----------everything happens at the right time.

Agnostic/Atheist/Religion
by Free ini feel that since i have lost all faith in the society, i feel myself drifting further and further into more agnosticism / atheistic thinking.i am finding it harder every day to believe in a god or holy scripture.
i actually feel more at peace now not feeling like someone is watching me.
religion now rings a wicked song in my head that sings of control, power, money, greed, and endless seas of falsehood.

Am I the only one ? I feel that since I have lost all faith in the society, I feel myself drifting further and further into more agnosticism / atheistic thinking. I am finding it harder every day to believe in a God or holy scripture. I actually feel more at peace now not feeling like someone is watching me.

Inthetruth, What pipe dream paradise breeze blew your fat ass in here. Don't you know where you are ? We love when braindead followers come here and try to defend the true false religion. So keep coming and wasting your breath, because I love telling people like you to GO FUCK YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and by the way those people were probably really getting it on but its been so long since you have gotten a good nailing that you forgot what a GOOD lovemaking session should sound like.

Yes, I met Albert Schroeder at my first assembly. One of the brothers from my hall who had been a bethelite acted like he was some kind of rock star when he asked me if I would like to meet him. He shook my hand and said " Do you believe this is the truth" of course I said yes, then he said something like " Then continue believing that it is the truth " and not to gve up. Thanks for the advice ASSHOLE. GUESS WHAT ? I GAVE UP.

I hate to tell you but for now there is nothing that you can do, especially since he has a supporter who he sleeps with and loves. Sit back and bite the bullet for now and act like it is OK, this way you can possibly reason with them in the future. It will be a ride for sure. It will be no good though to reason now since it is so close. DON'T give them presents and don't invite them over even for Thanksgiving. I believe you will find comfort here on the forum and get the knowledge you need to state your case in the future. Welcome to the place you can scream out loud. , no one could tell me when I was first brainwashed. but now I am FREE , hang in there.

It's OK to be bitter, Shout out a little, Say a curse word or two. I almost instantly started to heal once I came hear. So welcome and remember we all have different ways of dealing with the past. I just so happen to kick and scream a little, when other people go cry in their pillow.

"Righteous Requirements" July 1, 1943 Watchtower. pages 204-206. Get your hands on that one Asshole and then tell us again how you have the truth. Remember this also when you waste your time bothering people about some pipe dream paradise for hours and hours and hours.Your probably one who places one magazine then drives around for hours doing weekday service cause you know most people aren't home. This forum could be the eye opener for your weak bitch self.
