  What Convinced you to Leave?

  by LaurenM in

  i've been posting here a lot, but these last few weeks have been very difficult for me.

  anyways, lately, i've been thinking about confessing everything i've done to the elders and going back, but deep down, i don't really think it's the truth...so my question is, what convinced you it wasn't the truth and that leaving wasn't a horrible decision that everyone in the truth makes it out to be?

  i'm sure this has been discussed before, but i have been thinking the last few days about all of us.

  the "evil apostate" family.

  we all have suffered at the hands of the org and their brain washing of our family and friends.

  the cognitive dissonance amongst jws has never been more obvious to me then what i just experience in the last 5 min.

  long story short i had a phone conversation w/my mom about some things and i mentioned to her to look up what has been going on with their beloved organization in australia.

  brother geoffrey jackson of the holy governing body was caught lying numerous times about several subjects including disassociations & shunning.

  so i usually get dressed for school at my job.

  i couldn't today so i figured i'd drive by my parent's house and ask if i could change there seeing as they live two blocks from my house.

  as i am pulling up to my parent's i see a familiar face.

  What are JWs saying about the Royal Commission?

  2. child-abuse

  i am wondering if there are any pro-jw blogs/sites that any of you visit and whether or not jws are aware of what is going on in australia.

  also, what is there reaction to it?

  (i may already know the answer to that last question.

  so this is only my second post but its about something that has been on my mind for awhile now.

  have any of you ever felt the need to pray or speak to a higher power?

  do any of you beleive that we were created or have evolved with a "spiritual need"?

  okay, i am almost forty and outside of my wife i haven't had a friend in decades.

  sure i have tons of people with whom i am friendly towards, but they all share something to do with work or business.

  i remember thinking last year i had no one who called just to talk.
