  Kingdumb Hall Smell

  by Wordly Andre in

  2. friends

  ever notice all the kingdumb halls smell the same, like new books or something.

  i haven't been inside a kingdumb hall since a funeral i went to a couple years ago, but right when i walked in, it was the same smell.

  what got me thinking about this is i have a new book here, smells like kingdumb hall, but i guess what do you expect from a "religion" sorry publishing company, to smell like.

  "i was in the jehovah's witness cult you see, and that contained my social constructs well.

  f*** that, now i'm free.

  now my worldview has changed radically in the fundamentals, however, the orbital satellite things remain constant.

  I faded quickly, after finding out about the UN and a few other things I wrote the society after going to an elder who had never heard of it and had no answers. After receiving the letter from the society which answered none of my questions, and justified the actions of the society I knew my time going to meetings was quickly comming to an end, then the Question from Readers which said the annointed had no special access to God. So we are listening to men, no two ways about it, from their own literature. So i decieded that, as the bible says, i need to work out my own salvation and i can't rely on men to do that for me.

  Most Ex-JWs R Not Active in the Anti-JW Community. Maybe 1%? Any thoughts?

  by Seeker4 in

  2. experiences

  yesterday i called a family on the west coast that were in my congregation 18 years ago.

  between parents, kids and marriage partners, there were six of them who had been witnesses.

  they have all faded, and have had nothing to do with the witnesses for at least 15 year or more.. yet, none of them is in any way active even in looking at the ex-jw sites online.

  What about you newbies? How come you're here?

  Well I not a newbie, but i'm here because at some point i expect that this fading thing i'm doing is not going to work out and i will have to answer for my actions. I just want to defend my position. And while i know what it is i believe, it's not that easy to convince others. But some of the posts here are so logical its hard to deny. So i come to learn how to state thing in such a way as to convince others.

  morning faders, da's df's and current witnesses,.

  the whole of my life in the troof was spent looking forward to the end of this wicked system.

  over 30 years of waiting for jehovah to sort out the ills of mankind.

  Would you wiki?

  by LennyinBluemont in

  2. friends

  it seems to me the primary power of this discussion forum is the collective knowledge, insight and research regarding the jw experience.

  i would like to propose that a section of this board be set up and maintained as a wiki-pedia-type reference source regarding various issues.

  this would be the next evolution of the "best of" area.

  While were asking Simon for new stuff, can we get a spell checker too? You know, for spelling, not spells.

  lol, changling you're so cute, I could just eat you up!
