How should I reply?

so i wrote an email to my brother to tell him that i love him and that it's sad that a religion has come between us.

this is the reply i got:.

stupid and ignorant.

The more you say, the worse it will be. Trust me I know it's hard but just bite your tongue. We can't talk these people into not being in a cult we just have to wait. We have more time then they do. They're running out of money and their power is getting watered down by the internet and education so in the words of Mccartney "let it be"

i was going to post a 'welcome' message for all the new people who may have got a computer for christmas and are making their first forray into the online world.. of course, not many jws are going to be getting a computer or much else for christmas right?.

kinda-strange for me to forget about such a big thing like that eh?!

it's pretty good though to have moved on so that the jw indoctrinated mindset isn't the first thing that springs to mind.. hope you're all having a great christmas and wherever you are in the recovery process that you feel a little bit better today than you did yesterday, more free and relaxed than you did last year and looking forward to your new life in 2011.. there's going to be lots of changes coming for this site hopefully in the next week or so and probably continuing over the next year.

Merry Christmas Simon and thank you for this forum it has been a great help in my recovery.

Just the other day my neighbor told us how nice it is not to have to worry about what to say to us when different holidays rolled around. She was walking on eggshells.

Love it Love it Love it!

Best Watchtower I've ever seen.

It was either universal balance or poetic justice that became rutherford's demise.

Have a merry rutherford christmas.

I think i'll take a ride in my cadillac touring car around the grounds of beth serim and piss on the bushes

Would someone tell me please...

by ESTEE in

what is the purpose of god?.

estee.

The purpose of God is the same as the purpose of Superman.

People are hurting and they are waiting for superman to come and save them and make everything all right.

If you lived near us, you could come over for dinner on Christmas.

All of us here have some idea of what your going through.

WTBTS Downplays Marital Problems Among JWs

by JW GoneBad in

jw

the jan 15, 2011 watchtower study edition has a study article that will be studied on march 7-13, 2011 (respect marriage as a gift from god).

in it the wtbts tries to minimize and distort the high rate of divorce among jw's.

in paragraph 4 it says in part: .

ldrnomo

The Watchtower society has to keep up appearances before it's members. They have the troof so life inside the organization must be better then it is in the outside world. If they told the real truth, the rank and file might start thinking they are not in "God's organization".
