  Suing Parents for Cult Indoctrination

  by jeanniebeanz in

  has anyone ever heard of suing their parents for raising them as a member of a cult?.

  kids sue their parents for other forms of abuse and courts take such lawsuits seriously.

  do you think it would be possible to win a lawsuit brought because your parents chose to force you into a cult?.

  A German woman sued her Scientologist parents. Google "Vivien Krogmann Lutz" and you find e.g.

  well, i just ordered "crisis of conscience".

  i'm kind of nervous about actually buying and reading it.

  this life is all i've ever known, it's my whole identity really.

  EmptyInside, I kind of relate to what you are writing and your screenname. I used to be a fourth gen JW and a turning point was when I tried to preach to an Evangelical and he told me about Ray Franz. Firstly, I read the book in public libraries, later I bought it. It is a difficult point in life if you do not know anything else (like I did, too) but after that there is freedom!

  i've never smoked tobacco or a joint in my life!

  i know some regular pot smokers and they're pretty cool people.

  they typically say pot is better than alcohol and that it should be completely legal.

  i left work early on wed as i was starting to cough and my nose was running.

  i thought it was just a cold.

  got home, took some stuff, went to take a nap...and i doubt that i left my bed for more than 4 hours in the next 48. i did check the mayo site and found i had 7 of the nine listed symptoms for the flu.

  I think the symptoms of H1N1 are the same as the "normal" flu, aren't they?

  BTW, I get a flu shot next week.

  Learning the "Truth" Is not true is like...................

  by foolsparadise in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after 33 years of being mind controlled at 5 meetings a week, field service meetings, special day assembly, curcuit assembly,district assembly, finding out "the truth" is just a big hoax is like getting punched in the stomach-uppercut in the jaw-being kicked in the balls from behind and then having the rug ripped out from under you and smashing your head on the ground.

  what was it like for everyone else?.

  It is like learning that your parents are just your foster parents who feed you because they get money for it.

  But it is also a diagnosis that you are not the crazy one but everyone in your household.

  Seems this board has lost the connection to the org if there are not any information on the Annual Meeting.
