OMG I'm so happy!!!!
by Julia Orwell inyup, the apostate is happy.
i shouldn't be, right, because my life is empty without "jehovah" and the organisation.. but i just got a job at one of the best theme parks in the world, which is so what i want to do, and it's the first permanent job i've had since i lost my government job in 2012!.
the job pays minimum wage but i don't care because working in tourism and entertainment is what i want to do!

Do you think JWs are dangerous, if yes why? If not, why?
by suavojr inpersonally the jws to me are not dangerous.
on the other hand, many do think they are in fact a dangerous cult.
why are they dangerous?.

Absolutely dangerous!
Shunning, blood, child abuse policy...just to name a few.

I'm sorry to tell you there will be no healthy way for your child to have a good relationship with your parents if your not involved. I say this, after trying for years to keep close to our JW families.
Sadly when you leave you and your children become their new mission. They will take anytime they have with you and your daughter to speak religion. Your daughter will be confused and feel judged as she grows into her own, with her free mind. I've seen it happen with my kids.
I wish you and your family the best!!
Enjoy your new normal

Wasn't invited, didn't go and really don't care :) Had a peaceful evening relaxed with a glass of wine waiting to see if we'll get a good view of the blood moon.

No Memorial invitation for us :)
by truthseekeriam inthis morning as my husband and i were backing out of our garage to head out to the farmers market a jw was walking up our walkway with his invitation.
he didn't see us and we didn't rocongnize him but a brother and sister we knew well actually looked our way.
we decided not to bother and went our way to enjoy a lovely morning picking out fresh fruit and vegetables knowing when we got home the invitation would be stuffed in our door.

Well to our surprise all our neighbors had them sticking out their doors but not ours..lol. I just had o snicker thinking the couple who knew us actually must have sent that poor guy back to retrieve that cheap piece of paper because we're such bad people That didn't deserve it.
It's so hard to Imagine just a few years ago I sat and cried with this sister sharing what happened to my child! These people are heartless pure and simple, I'm so glad we moved on from the conditional fake love they have for one another.

What Watchtower Belief/View Never Sat Right With You?
by minimus inbut their views on blood are just plain weird!
meat has blood in it even if it's bled.
still eating meat means consuming blood.

I was handed a print out of that article right after my 10 year old was interrogated about her molestation!! Of course it gave me no peace, We wanted spiritual justice, We wanted support, we needed help...not another article to read!!
Years later, I now know they could care less about the abused, if they had their way they would rather look at a child as a liar and temptress then to admit the fact they have a serious problem. The only thing that mattered to them was how bad it made the org look! Our mental health, our physical health and our spiritual health meant absolutely nothing to them. We were forever changed and our challenges are never ending, not that they would even notice.
