speak for yourself, I like to think I've become the very opposite of what we allegedly despise and your blatant generalization is both judgemental and ill founded, I bet you don not know one single person on this forum personally, perhaps do some more searching. I've never felt hatred or feel I despise the religion of my birth, I feel far more empathy to the victims of the cult, bear in mind I've been yelled at, told I'm possessed, had my mental health questioned, shunned and suffered a marriage break up,excluded from attending my own mothers funeral, yet I still speak to them politely and courteously, quite and achievement I'd say.

Have we become what we despise so much?
by Tenacious inthe majority of members who tend to join this forum have been hurt possibly even traumatized sometimes to the point of wanting to end their lives.
upon joining the forum, new members are welcomed with open arms, welcome messages start pouring in, "likes" are freely given, a false sense of security is promoted where a member is free to speak his mind without having to worry about the wt gestapo.
again, similar to how potential converts are welcomed and "love bombed" upon entering a kh for the first time.

Another heavy load :Literature Cart Witnessing
by RULES & REGULATIONS injehovah's witnesses standing on a street corner publicly promoting the propaganda of the governing body!another ridiculous form of "forced loyalty" to jehovah.
"dirty work" that the wtbts make witnesses go through.preaching work '' lite''.putting more heavy loads on members while the ''faithful and discreet slave'' preach from warm studios without the humiliation.
what an embarrassment!.

Reasons for NOT Returning
by Saved_JW ini left the watchtower in the winter of 2008. my first year out was by far the most difficult.
i had every intention of returning to the watchtower for the very purpose of being able to speak with my friends and family.
i had already concluded that the teachings were not the "truth" [after reading crisis of conscience] so coming back was more emotional then anything.

How many of you actually KNOW the bible OR God???
by Mark Zyche insince jws are sooooooo terrible and full of lies.
what the heck do you think about fat santa, and and days later the celebration of janus?.
since you seem to be so good at looking at the "lies of the watchtower" what do you people think of your lives now, religiously speaking?

Mark; its not a game with rules here, I have nothing to hide, been out many years and seen still further false prophecies from the WTS, over lapping generation, the change of 1935, blood fractions, and there will be still more to come, dont you see a pattern? -

Mark; your own magazines and literature of the last 130 odd years has clearly defined the meaning of "false prophet" they are dissected , your claim of being "the channel, Gods mouthpiece on Earth, the faithful and discreet slave etc" is quite strong language, the problem is the "channel" has a dreadful record of failure. Do you think the "channel" that joined with the United Nations could be deemed to be another failure?

a false prophet? Mmm let me guess an individual or group that make a biblical prediction that fails to come true? The generation that saw the events of 1914 would not pass away until the creators promise that is to be completed in the 20th Century, Millions Now Living Will Never Die,author Judge Rutherford, a house called Beth Sarim built for the resurrection of the ancient worthies? sounds like a start -

Mark, your patronising condescending gibberish isnt going to get you many followers whatever your intentions are, for the record I'd say a vast percentage of the folks here are reasonably pleased with their lives, nothing is perfect but to still be tied to a dishonest,dangerous high control cult like the WTS any alternative is better. I believe we do absolutely understand you here, you speak very angrily and soon the hate speech will appear, we've seen it all before.
