  by minimus in

  witnesses love to say how "miserable" the "apostates" are when they .

  leave "the truth".. how would you respond to this statement from your own personal experience?

  ?.

  My life is so unbelievably better since leaving the Witnesses for many of the reasons already mentioned! When I speak with my mother on the phone, I know she can always sense the happines in my voice and you can tell that she is miffed as to how life could be so good without the "truth". I have told her countless times that I have never been happier with my wife and two boys, my job, home, etc. So she can't use the premise that I would be happier back in the organization.

  Utterances from the mouths of JW`s that prove they are in a cult. Any?

  by jambon1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  quotes from the wt publications are indeed hair raising enough.

  but i find the utterances of jehovahs witnesses themselves to be even more intriguing.

  mainly because it shows just what kind of people the religion produces.. below are some that stand out to me in from my time in the organisation.

  2. friends

  my husband and i are throwing around the idea of moving to a different state.

  nothing is set in stone yet, but some changes in his career may allow for us to move wherever we like in the u.s. i love washington state, but i would like to move somewhere a little warmer.

  i've lived in washington all my life and i need a little help in learning about the rest of the u.s.. so convince me to move to your state.

  I have lived all over the East Coast and parts of the West. However, you can not beat California! Sure the housing is expensive(but coming down) but it is because it's worth it!

  Reasons why I CHOSE to live in Ventura County, California:

  1. We are 10 minutes from the beach.
  2. We are 30 minutes from Malibu.
  3. We are 30 minutes from Santa Barbra.
  4. We are 30 minutes from Los Angeles.
  5. We are at the most 1 hour away from Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, LA Zoo, Getty Museum, Sunset Blvd, all major TV studios, and Universal Studios.
  6. We are 5 hours away from Vegas, 1 hour away from snow and 2 hours away from desert.
  7. You should see the variety of produce at our farmer's market; afterall, we are considered the nations salad bowl.
  8. It's December 15 and I have my window open and my shorts on and my son went swimming last week.
  9. We are 50 miles north of LA and the air is clean here and the crime is low.
  10. My son is going to surf camp for summer and it is two blocks from my office. Did I mention I have ocean view. lol

  So, yes, I have lived in many states in the last few years. I can admire what all of the states offer in this country of ours; but as for me and my family, we have chosen California to be our home. Now what I admire about other states, so I can't be blamed as being narrow-minded:

  • Texas. You do not hold back on you hospitality. Yes, everything is bigger there and they are great people!
  • NJ They have the most beautiful farm areas! They can do some country cooking up there too.
  • Florida It rains way to much to be named the "sunshine " state. How about we call you the "It's raining, so let's go hang out at the bar and watch the hot waitress'" state. There are some beautiful people there.
  • NY I tell you, my wife and I were so impressed as to how friendly people from New York really are. Go into the city. Sure the accents might be a little rough but the people aren't.
  • AZ What a beautiful state.
  • TN Very green and Dolly Parton has a kick a#% amusement park!
  • OK Like it says..it's Ok.
  • NC Nice beaches
  • NM Beautiful Colors
  • UT Awe inspiring landscapes
  • NV Vegas, enough said. (trust me, everyone must visit before they die)
  • PA Very historical and quaint. Gettysburg is a must see.
  • Maryland Baltimore has the greatest attraction called the Inner Harbor.
  • Washington DC Smithsonian is a must and the Capitol and memorials are inspirations; especially, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

  So, if you are interested, contact me because I am proud of the state that I have chosen only a short two years ago. Life has been good!
