  The one great thing about suspending these meetings , is it will be less indoctrination pouring into the heads of JW's from the platforms. The longer the meetings are suspended, the greater chance that a few, or some JW's may just jump off the fence to freedom without the constant indoctrination. One can only hope. Peace out, Flipper

  Thanks for sharing Barbara & Joe. Much appreciated ! Wife and I have been stocking up on food and gloves. Taking vitamins to build up our immune system, and avoiding needless huge crowds. The point about Zinc lozenges is good as well, have to get more of those. We use those during cold season as well. It's great getting advice from a medical expert, so thanks again. Peace out, Flipper

  GB Letter To Elders In Response To Oxygen Series

  by thedepressedsoul in

  this letter was put out right when the series aired.

  seems they have "disfellowshipped" reporters pretty much in the eyes of their followers.

  public information desk: as of july 1, 2019, a public information desk (pid) was established to handle communication with news media, academic institutions, and government agencies.

  HIDDEN PIMO- If I was a betting man- I'm assuming those 2 elders that Trey interviewed have either been deleted, resigned as elders, or at the very minimum, were taken into the back room and given 50 lashes with a wet noodle by the Circuit Overseer or some other GB appointed control freak. That's how WT rolls man. Sad, but true. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  " Please note that no interview should be granted by an elder or ministerial servant without permission from the branch. "

  Translation : WT leaders saying , " We are your lords, masters, and slaveholders. You do NOT think for yourself, we do your thinking for you. You will only speak when allowed by us to outside media . Understand ? Good. If you don't understand ? You'll lose you servants position or be disfellowshipped, according to how we WT leaders feel that particular day. "

  " Publishers may be approached for comments by media representatives in connection with our activities or beliefs and may decide to participate. However, when elders learn that a publisher has granted such an interview, they should immediately inform PID. "

  Translation : " Go ahead publishers and allow media to interview you, but the Public Information Desk will know who you are, so will the elders, and we WT leaders will have a record of you speaking out as well. And don't forget, the elders will offer you " loving " counsel in the back room before the meetings begin, just so you understand that you will be held accountable for your words and actions ! And the elders may gossip about it to their wives, who in turn will spread it to others in the congregation that you talked with the media. There now. Feel better ? Still want to speak out to the media, suckers ? Ha ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha !. We'll see you in court or the back room, it's your choice. With warm spiritual love, your brothers Watchtower, Bible, and Tract Society. "

  I can see these scene's playing out in any local congregation's near you today. Stay tuned, the shit show has just begun. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  Who’s The Best Actor/Actress? Who Is Overrated??

  by minimus in

  one of my favorite actors is robert de niro.

  some of his later movies were so so but overall i think he was outstanding.

  meryl streep, i just never thought she was anything exciting yet people say she’s the best actress of all time.

  Anthony Hopkins, Jack Nicholson, the English actor Oliver Reed was good ( played the older guy in The Gladiators with the white beard ) .

  As far as female actresses, Kathy Bates was always good, Renee Zellwegger is outstanding in lots of stuff, especially Cold Mountain.

  So these are a few of my favorites. Peace out, Flipper

  Total asshole. He got his lunch handed to him at the Democratic debates last night. He's a racist, opportunistic billionaire trying to skate in with disingenuous commercials portraying he and Obama were buddies.

  Just another Democratic version of a Trump wanna be. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  Extremely well done documentary. Wife and I watched both nights, and I've already downloaded the Oxygen app on my phone so I can share it.

  I feel it was the best presented, most thorough discussion of WT child abuse yet . 4 hours of sitting on the edge of your seat tension, which angered me at the gross negligence and injustices committed by this criminal organization WT Society.

  Trey Bundy, Irwin Zalkin, and all of the abuse victims did an incredible job of presenting this information. I cannot even imagine how difficult it was for these abuse survivors to assist in this 4 hour documentary. With them still suffering PTSD from their abuse, it required an astounding amount of courage to do these interviews.

  I highly recommend watching it, and sharing it with anybody you know. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  My wife and I have begun our fade

  2. experiences

  i haven’t posted in awhile.

  my wife asked me after the year 2000 came and went without fanfare(because the wt organization said all the “new world” would be here within this 20th century would end), “ what would it take for you to leave the truth?”.

  my reply was “ if i turn 60 in this “system of things”.

  JAMES JACK- Congratulations to you and your wife breaking free from the chains of mental abuse by the WT Society and moving on to live your life with freedom of mind ! I'm your same age ( turned 60 in October 2019 ) and I've been out of the JW's over 17 years now. Best decision I ever made, aside from marrying Mrs. Flipper and having my 3 children years ago.

  Having been born and raised in the JW cult myself, I understand your feelings of a wasted life, WT telling us we would never die, and to only live for the future " paradise".

  I get it. I've discovered that living in the here and now, treasuring each day of life, and pursuing my interests, passions, business, cherishing my wife, my ex-JW son, and friendships each day are what life is about. Not chasing some pie in the sky unreality. Living each day with no regrets, like it's your last day is my mantra now. I'm into producing and playing and writing music, putting it out on the Internet, organic vegetable gardening, hiking in the woods, playing Scrabble with my wife. Enjoying our dogs and cat.

  It's these cherished memories in living them every day that help me get through. Perhaps you and your wife can come to South Lake Tahoe next year at our annual apostafest get together . Check out the thread on On The Way Out's topics. We get about 40 to 50 ex-JW's coming to just hang out, BBQ, party, chill and drink adult and non-adult beverages sharing real friendships. Would love to have you come !

  Hang in bro, you and your wife will make it. Pursue your dreams ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper
