  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

  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.

  Would they bother preaching

  by Bobhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if your average publisher believed that the big a was definately not going to come in their lifetime would they bother preaching?

  given that they believe that when you die you go to sleep and wake up in a paradise earth with a clean slate what would be the point of preaching.

  those that have spent there lives as jw's and died what have they gained.
