I know what you may be thinking by the title but bear with me. Have you ever reflected on past service experiences and think wow if only I had listened to a householder? Two things come to my mind of personal experience. 1. I remember someone in service asking me a question I couldn’t answer (big surprise right)? I told them I would look it up and return. I never went back. I guess it’s that feeling you get when you know you couldn’t possibly answer it with the organization material. And please don’t ask me to remember the question he asked I don’t remember but I remember the experience.
Another one was where someone offered me their literature and said they would take mine. Alarms going off in my head I wasn’t about to do that. Course later in life when you wake up to the real truth about the truth you know why you didn’t accept theirs.
But I was thinking about this and just how indoctrinated I used to be and how there was no critical thinking allowed. Do any of you have any experiences that you thought of later and just how crazy it is to think back and be like how did I not see this before?

Flipper,
I do hope that they wake up for your sake too. Its terrible the blackmail they use against people stripping you of your dignity and humanity in anyway they can. Take care my friend.

Disclaimer this is not a criticism it’s merely a sad fact. It’s sad that for some of us that even after leaving that there is still some measure of control they maintain and I feel sorry for the ones that can’t truly break free from every aspect. But freedom even if it has limitations is still better than being in a cult.

As brought out on the show the GB is really doing a lot to help people wake up by their arrogance to broadcast such ridiculous things and tout it as being normal way to live when it goes against basic human nature. For example where Garret Losche said that Jehovah is more important than people. So that tells you to not have any empathy or compassion to humanity and to just peddle what they tell you. It’s really sad how they have come to grow and deceive people and they haven’t been outed yet like they should have been.

Isn’t that what the watchtower wants you to do is hide? Doing that takes the humanity out of who we are and haven’t we had that stripped away long enough? We are humans with emotions and families and lives and everyone should be seen and heard especially coming out of an abuse high control group. We need to as the theme of this years convention says Be Courageous in standing up for what is true and showing real and true unconditional love. The more of us that do that the more who will wake up and can get real help. Dad, still totally ADD good job!!
Your Son,

Unlike most people he is a good one he said that he will always be my friend and that we can still talk just as much as we always have and that he will not shun me. He is a rare gem of a witness. He said why would I not talk to you after all I talked to him a lot during the 12 years he was disfellowshipped so he has no problem doing the same. Now I just have to talk to my brother and I have a feeling that it’s not going to go very well with him but it’s my life not his.

Personally I think it’s great when the Scientology church keeps quiet it tells me that everything Leah Remi is saying is true and they can’t argue with her. I admire her for her show and am looking forward to her episode on the witnesses. I wonder too how the WTBS will or won’t respond to that episode. I doubt very few in the organization will actually watch it the majority of those who do are already thinking outside the organization and the really indoctrinated ones will brush it off and ignore it.
