  Wish I would of read this sooner, was first posted when I was 'studying' ...

  I can say with certainty that most of the poor decisions I've made in life have been the result of not being well informed enough.

  Over eating v over drinking

  by Normalfulla in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when i was in, i couldn't understand why the subject of over eating or gluttony was almost never discussed, there was countless talks and articles about over drinking but over eating is lumped in as the same offence in the bible but was never discussed?

  an elder who was serving in the islands told me he heard a talk given by a local in the cong there who professed that "in the new system we can eat as much as we want and not get fat".

  so why was /is it not talked about?

  I've 'studied' with an elder that would make himself these HUGE honking triple decker pickle sandwiches smothered in mayonnaise. This of course was done halfway through the study AFTER I had already stayed there for supper.. ( they were racking up the hours off my back ) Kind of guy that would go back for a second fully loaded plate. Was truly something to behold, never seen anything like it not even in 'the world' so to speak.

  The supper and sandwich binge evening was the last one there for me, I peeled out really pissed after !

  Him and his wife were / are obese. Once went in service with them in my MK2 Jetta and they filled the whole car, pretty gross hehe

  New Episode Of The Shunned Podcast If You're So Inclined

  by dubstepped in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i know i have a few people here that enjoy the stories on the podcast, so i announce when a new one comes out.

  also sometimes this is a way for new people to find it and get help if they want, so here it is.

  between this jw life (my first podcast) and shunned we just went over the 40,000 individual download mark, which is pretty cool.. i just released episode sixteen about sydney, and it's a great look into the narcissism and authoritarian nature of the cult.

  Everything about this thread is spot on, look into Narcissism and you will see the mind games the society plays on us. Think about it, they've had over a 100 years to perfect their craft. They do it well the sons of bitches.. read read read about them and the subject. The more you know the more you will own your life. None of this prevents you from being spiritual if you so desire.

  Sara : Yes they will turn on you once baptised, they'll want to run your life. You'll be slowly broken down and dismantled to a shell of what you once were. I've lived through it I know.

  Suicides

  by new boy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been on the phone the last to two weeks calling people i've known over the last forty years most of who are still jehovah's witnesses.

  some of these people who didn't know i was "out" talked to me and some who knew i was "out" still talked to me.

  some of the those people are even elders.. by book new boy will be dedicated to all the people who have killed themselves because of being a jehovah's witness or knowing others who were jehovah's witnesses.

  As usual thanks Keith, looking forward to the book.

  Newcomers : This is the guy that single handedly woke me up thanks to his New Boy at Bethel in the 70's thread. Great reading including the episode of Elton John's Madman Across The Water blaring form his decrepit Chevy Biscaine car's stereo on one of the downtown expressways parting traffic like Moses at the Red Sea ! So funny, was shocking to me at the time, I wept... realisation that I was way more gullible than I thought.

  Crooked Teeth

  by Introvert 2 in

  well 55 yo this summer times flies.. was in my late thirties when i started thinking about getting braces or some other treatment for my crowded teeth.

  decided to put it off a few years later as 'the new system' ™ was right around the corner.

  then went through a huge burn out depression and my teeth became a lesser priority.

  Just saw the film, "Apostasy"

  by Bad_Wolf in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it was a very good film but not fully what i was expecting.

  a jw could even watch it, i don't think the title fit the movie.

  there was absolutely nothing about apostasy, nor do i recall the word even being mentioned.
