  By their fruits

  by Bobhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am not saying that all elders are heartless but i do believe the wt rules lead them in that direction.. after i was df i continued to go to all the meetings.

  at one of the meetings an elder who was on the commitee that gave me the boot was giving my 10year old son counsel on his student talk.

  he said that his talk was good and that if he needs any help with his next talk he would be happy to help him.

  Elders in denial?

  by Bobhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after i was df and seriously questioning my faith in the org ( won't call it the truth) i gave a copy of coc to an elder i have known since i was a young man.

  he read it found it disturbing and said that he didn't realize problems that he found at his level of involvement went so high.

  i then gave him a copy of "in search of christian freedom" he never read it said that he didn't want to question his faith in the brothers.

  My exwife was a parrot

  by Bobhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there once was a man who wanted to purchase a talking parrot.

  he went to a pet store, but was told by the pet shop owner that they only had one parrot that fit his criteria but he probably would not want to purchase this particular parrot because it had been previously owned by one of jehovah's witnesses.

  the man said he was not worried, looked the parrot over carefully,purchased it and took it home.

  ex JW atheists

  by Bobhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know we were sold a lie in believing god was only dealing with the wt and to obey them is to obey god.

  what puzzels me is that in rejecting the wt so many also reject their belief in god.

  surely they believed that god existed as witnesses.

  Anti-witnessing

  by Highlander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  during my time as a j-dub, it was encouraged to take every opportunity to informal witness with people.

  a good example would be to witness to a co-worker.. i avoided this as much as possible when i was a dub.

  if the topic of religion came up at work i would try to change the topic or gracefully exit the conversation.. now that i'm far removed from this cult, i find myself taking every opportunity i can to anti-witness against the j-dubs.

  Jousting with windmills

  by Bobhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the wt has no claim on me i don't think its purely altruistic ( i'm no saint) on my part to help other victims which i have over the years it's like i was part of a dsylectic family and i want to make it right.

  a quest like that of don quotie " to right the unrightable wrong" i say it has no claim yet here i am posting on this site.

  its like i want justice but can't find the enemy let alone pin him down and thrust him through with my sword.
