Grace...
It is my lifes work now to let the WORLD Know how evil it is to get into a cult.
You're amazing.
most of the people i've met since i left don't know that i spent years of my life as a door knocker.. i have very dear friends who don't know.
i've even had lovers who didn't know.
my last partner knew, and found it vaguely amusing.. i guess i find it deeply embarrassing, although over the years it's become easier to mention it.

summer, keep your JW mags packed away, there's a good girl!
Trust your instincts.
Why are you involved with JWs?

Amber Rose, love your story.
So, she asks me what I'm doing for the holidays, and I was like, "Oh. Uh, I don't know." - awkward pause. Then I thought, that sounded retarded so, either explain why you're a retard or just be retarded. So I said, this is my first year celebrating, my family never celebrated because they were JWs. It turned out that her parents used to be JW's too and we had a pretty interesting conversation.
I guess it makes us somewhat interesting, at the end of the day.
We've had cult experience. How many people do you know who can say that?

RIP Thomschat.
report: court sentences rape victimfri nov 16, 12:27 am et .
a saudi court sentenced a woman who had been gang raped to six months in jail and 200 lashes more than doubling her initial penalty for being in the car of a man who was not a relative, a newspaper reported thursday.. the decision by the qatif general court came in a case that had sparked rare debate about the kingdom's justice system when it surfaced more than a year ago.. in its decision wednesday, the court also roughly doubled prison sentences for the seven men convicted of raping the 19-year-old woman, the arab news reported on its english-language web site.. according to arab news, the court said the woman's punishment was increased because of "her attempt to aggravate and influence the judiciary through the media.".
she had initially been sentenced to 90 lashes after being convicting her of violating saudi's rigid laws on segregation of the sexes.. under saudi arabia's interpretation of islamic sharia law, women are not allowed in public in the company of men other than their male relatives.. the initial sentences for the men convicted of the gang rape ranged from 10 months to five years in prison.
stillajwexelder, this comment of yours is horrifying:
and put their women on an other island with all the male prison population of the USA/GB/Canada/Australia and f++k all the islam out of them
This attitude disgusts me.
This thread is really about respect for women. Your argument is that if Muslims don't respect women we should f*ck their women?
Sick, man.

my cousin - only 65 - and until monday in seemingly good health - took a walk to his little woodshop and did not return on monday.
two hours later his wife found him.

Bless you, bless his family.
Remember the good times.
Look after your health.

i want to live under different circumstances.".
that was a line i heard recently that really impacted me.. i think i need to make a firm stand soon but, unfortunately, it will hurt my wife and kids.. ah, the love is just oozing from jehovah's organization.. .

No!
I've read CoC and having been in the truth since birth,
LOL!!! Why call it "the truth"?
Stopping using that dishonest cultish mind-controlling expression could be your first step towards breaking free.
Calling the JW doctrine "the truth" is keeping you shackled, don't you see?
my baby turned one today.
it was a great day and a great party.
this year has just flown by so fast.. .
Congratulations Kaia!
Well done Es. She's a cutie.
i knew a little kid who got bitten pretty badly.
his parents didn't seem appalled enough to suit me.. they acted like it was a badge of honor of something.. i was chased out of a yard by a dog but didn't get bit.
i think i didn't get bit because i knew enough about dogs to get off the property and then turn and face the dog with my book bag in front of me.
Um. I was HIT on, many times. Does that count?
I guess if you go to someone's house uninvited, and try hard to get invited inside, and you're young and vaguely attractive, well, it's gonna happen.
And if there are two of you, that's a Royal Flush to some lonely "householders".
