i remember when i was really little a guy stormed in to our KH and just stood there by the stage looking at the guy giving the talk. when the brothers tried to take him away he fought them and started yelling. i don't know if he was an apostate or a crazy homeless guy but either way i thought it was interesting.

Crazy-Ass Apostates
by GetBusyLiving inwhats the most outrageous thing you have ever heard of an apostate doing to get back at the witnesses?
a while back on here i heard of some guy that was hugely pissed about the 1975 fiasco.
he dressed up in one of those ancient drama outfits and stormed the stage at a convention screaming, " i'm the faithful and discreet slave!!!!".

growing emotionally :)
by Missanna ini've been thinking a lot lately about how much i've changed over the last year.
i've only been out of the borg for a year but i've changed so much.
my father called me the other day and told me that he found out that my husband has been going on these xjw boards and wanted to know how i felt about it.

mysterious- i know what you mean. that song has been one of my favorites for a while now. the lyrics speak volumes.
It doesn't make me sad anymore that my parents decided to cut me off from the family. If you've read my story you know i do not have a good relationship with them and it's not emotionally safe for me to be in contact with them. that's why i'm not scared anymore to be truthful with them. You can't lose what you never had. My brother on the other hand (the one with my nephew) he found out about it also and i called to make sure that this doesn't change me going up there to see my little nephew and he actually said "i won't tell sarah (his wife) and i don't see how i would change anything... that right there gave me so much hope that he may be questioning things. Either that or he really wants to see me either way it's an amazing thing that i didn't think possible. thank you all for your support.
And mrs. smith thank you for thinking about me. i go to bed thinking of so many of you. i feel like we're family.

I've been thinking a lot lately about how much i've changed over the last year. i've only been out of the borg for a year but i've changed so much. my father called me the other day and told me that he found out that my husband has been going on these xjw boards and wanted to know how i felt about it. It was so funny to me. it was the day after 4th of july i was hung over and talking to my dad. which is NOT a good combination. but i was surprizingly calm. I told him the truth. i said dad i know about it and i'm doing the same thing. i actually got to tell him that i don't believe that the witnesses have the truth. which resulted in him telling me the family is going to cut off association from me... which really made me laugh. they haven't called me for so long even to ask how im doing. the only time i hear from my mom is when something bad is happening. now before i would have been a stupid coward and tried avoiding the subject at all cost and get into a huge argument with him but i stayed calm and i was honest. it just made me realize how much i've changed. i know that has a lot to do with my age... because i don't have that much experience but it proves that i've grown emotionally. a year ago if this would have happened i would have been crying in a corner afterward because i was such a disappointment to my family. now i feel like i have a right to live my life the way i want to, to be who i want to, and to believe the way i want to. that's an amazing feeling. My father hasn't called since. He wanted to know why i didn't believe that it was the truth and surprizingly i didn't go off on a rampage but calmly told him that it was something i didn't want to discuss with him at this point. that was something i tried in the past but failed miserably. lol but i'm very proud of myself. i hope that a year from now i can say that i've grown even more. Finally i am starting to feel comfortable with my life. i've been happy this past year but not completely comfortable with my emotions. thanks for letting me ramble on like that.

I don't have much advice but my heart goes out to you. i'm so sorry this is happening. my father was abusive to all six of us and my mother did nothing. the elders did nothing. all i can suggest thinking about what i would have wanted done as a child was go to the police get the authorities involved. i don't like the idea of video taping him because that can be emotionally painful but in the long run could help. call the police. again my heart hurts for him. please keep me posted on what happens.

well when my family started to find out i don't believe that they have the truth why they said i have apostate thinking. according to the jw's apastate is someone who left the truth and is trying to pull others out of the org. the real definition is someone who changes their faith. so if you changed your faith in the witnesses belief then you are an apostate. i don't think its bad at all.
