Well first the off, at seventeen it was side burns that were down to my ear lobe, and mustache, Drinking a beer on my front porch, Having more than three families at my house for dinner and playing the game Risk, saying it was not for Christians. Idiots

How did you find the strength to leave?
by SAHARA into all of you exjws, i'm sure you've been asked this question one way or the other many times and i'm sure the answer is different for many of you, i'd like to know directly from you never having a chance to hear or read many exjw's answers to this.
knowing that you would be cut off from your family and friends and other consequences for your decision to leave, how did you ever get the strength to do it?
i mean really, i find it fascinating to know that there are so many of you who were at one time very devout, if not at the very least loyal to one of the most successful mind-contol organizations ever who believed all if not most of what the society taught and still you found the courage to risk everything once you accepted that it isn't what it claims to be.

'How did you find the strength to leave?'
Well first the off, the question should be "How do you find strength to “Stay”!
1. Do you like to be shunned during sometimes, some of the hardest times of your life spiritually speaking, or otherwise.
2. Do you enjoy watching others being shunned, and then expecting your children to learn this form of debased behavior?
3. Do you enjoy being told you must conform to a set of rules as though they from the almighty himself, contrived originally by Joseph Rutherford, things to just mention a few, all holidays, blood transfusions, shots at one time, that has along with the prohibition on blood has caused the untimely death of countless thousands.
4. Do you enjoy being told not to use any other bibles and research books other than the Witness books and magazines.
Tell me what major facet of your social life, that is not controlled by the so called governing body (slash) faithful slave of God?

It has taken leaving the Jehovah’s witnesses to allow myself, to learn and accept that salvation comes by Grace from Jehovah, not because of anything we do, humans can never on their own attain salvation or coheres god into giving them life (salvation).
This concept of Jehovah’s Witnesses has been their biggest fallacy or (spiritual downfall), that of earning your way into salvation or gods favor. The Ransom price paid in behalf of all mankind for a true student of the bible should instill in them a deep appreciation and a feeling of security for the future, knowing that this provision covers every human that has ever been born. He offered up his son for everyone, during the reign of his son then all mankind the resurrected ones as well as those living (will) have really their first authentic chance at learning and accepting, and progressively attaining perfection. Then we can know what it’s like to really live.

Oh boo who. One has to first know for sure that it is the truth, and if you are banned or sanctioned from reading opposing material that may or may not say something derogatory about the WTBTS, then it’s time to wake up you duffus and admit that maybe you are in a cult their Virginia. My god some people have their heads so far up the hind den or a religion or grooup of men they just can’t see the light of day or smell the cat food. Get a Life fools.

New CO talk: Be loyal to Org. even if you get weird instructions or can prove them wrong doctrinally!
by sir82 intheme was something about "loyalty to jehovah's visible organization".. i have neither the time nor inclination to summarize the whole thing, but a few points stood out:.
even if it causes you personal hardship.
example: joshua & caleb returned from spy trip to promised land with good report, but were "outvoted" by the other 10 spies.

Blondie you never cease amazing me with your logical reasoning along these lines. I have great respect for the “Associated Bible Students” that are scattered throughout the world; they have not evolved themselves into a cult with its thin veneer like the Watchtower Society has. Keep up the good work.
