  ive been lurking here for the past couple of months since i started researching the organization.

  i dont have many people to talk to and its been a saving grace to read your posts.. i dont really know where to start so here i go.

  its been a long journey getting here and it looks as if i still have a long ways to go to get somewhere healthy, stable and strong.

  Welcome to the board..I'm sorry, but it is a rude awakening for sure. Just remember that you are NOT the only one to feel this way and it is right to do so.

  Just take things one step at a time.

  Anyone look at this board while still an IN and ACTIVE JW?

  by Mad Sweeney in

  i vaguely remember looking at this board a few years ago, before i ever considered leaving the borg, and being appalled at the evil and hateful attitudes i saw here and scared to death of reading any further.. now i go back through years and years of posts and there is no evil or hate there at all.

  it's one of the most kind and welcoming boards i've encountered since the invention of the internet.. that is how well borg indoctrination works.

  it is eerily like 1984. black is white.

  Yes, for about two weeks and I was gone. It was a vital part of my coming to my senses.

  Anyone former JW's from St Louis or Southern Mo?

  i'm formerly from the jackson/cape girardeau area and am currently in st louis.. i've been out in the 'world' for 10 years.

  this is the first time i've tried to contact anyone or really even read anything about the jw's (and former jw's).

  to be quite honest, i was trying to forget that part of my life ever happened.

  well after fading and keeping a low key i think the elders are finally going to get to me.

  in 2007 i moved to another city but quickly moved back home about two months later.

  the whole time everyone from my old congregation has been thinking i've been in another city.

  144000

  by jehovahsheep in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  since 1879 how many different ones associated with the wts do you think have stated they were of the 144000 ?

  for example in 1948 alone there was 25000.with perhaps hundreds of thousands 1st century christians reaching out for the heavenly reward-we can see their premise is ludricious.the wts doctrinal house is built on the shaky foundation of ct russell.
