  here's a rare one you'll not find elsewhere, send it to your friends!.

  new bethel entrants introduction to the governing body circa 1985. two new bethel boys at watchtower headquarters somehow managed to videotape this introduction to the brooklyn bethel headquarters of the governing body off of the bethel tv screen.

  I found it sad. It was a combination of kindness and narcistic behavior from old decieved men

  Elder knocks on my door... couldn't see who it was and I opened it...

  so an elder came to my door the other day in field circus.

  i looked through the peephole to see who it was, but the way the door is situated against the sky in the background i couldn't see anything but a silhouette.

  not to mention he was standing off to the side so to make it hard for anyone to see who was knocking.. so i open the door thinking it was my friend since he is the only jw that knows where i live.

  she has recently stopped attending meetings and is being harrassed by the elders to talk to them .

  Open relationships, polyamory and swinging

  has anyone else, after leaving the restrictive rules of the jw world, tried having an open marriage, joining the 'lifestyle' of the swinger comunity?

  we've been doing that for about 4-5 months now and it's been an interesting experience, in fact it's been a major distraction from the hell of rebuilding our lives outside the religion and our base of friends.

  Can't say it's anything I want but I don't judge others. After leaving the Org I realized there are different people and as long as your not trying to hurt others then who am I to judge.

  Could you ever go back?

  by MrFreeze in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  not that i'm thinking about it, even for a brief nano-second, but something i have thought about is this, is there any way you could go back and not have people look at you with the stink eye?

  after admitting your true feelings, how in the world could people ever look at you the same?

  if you were in the situation of welcoming someone back, would you be able to look past the errors?

  Elder School - Clandestine

  by Slidin Fast in

  startfragment.

  during this holiday season our worthy elders will not be enjoying the fruit of their labours with their families but will be attending their training sessions conducted in great secrecy.

  the existence of these meetings is no secret but the content of them certainly is.. in this country (the uk) i can study the law and the subtleties of precedent that can be argued in any accusation raised against me.

  What is the longest you know of a Fader being out of the JW's and then DF'd?

  by Think About It in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what's the longest amount of time you know of where a fader was out of the jw's and df'd later?

  probably alot of factors in this.

  could depend on how visible you are in your kh's town, the personality of the boe, what your "sins" were, what your "status" use to be, etc.

  My cousin - non JW just wrote-

  " Truth cannot change. That is what make it valid and timeless. God's truth stands forever. Thank God for that!"

  It's funny how obvious it is to everyone else
