Two days ago, I filmed the movie scene I had talked about before. I had about seven lines. It was so much fun. And I made a couple of friends on the set who added me to their facebook. Now that I have a speaking role and a commercial under my belt, my goal for next year is to start looking for an agent.
When I came home, I got Steven Hassan's book in the mail and my husband saw it. Now he's on the defense. I think he's nervous that I'm going to start showing him things in the book. I haven't started reading it yet but I do have a question. I seem to remember a thread were someone had posted wt articles that proved the things Steven put in his book applied to witnesses. Does anybody happen to have the link to that thread handy?

Because WE'RE going over your aunt's house for Thanksgiving tonight?" So it's official. My jw husband is coming to Thanksgiving dinner with me!

I am thankful for learning the truth about "the truth." Thank you jwfacts.com
I am thankful that I have non-jw family to lean on.
I am thankful for this forum and having the support of people who have been through what I'm going through.
I'm thankful that the day after thanksgiving, I'm moving into a better and safer area.

New "apostate" here! Recent WT study- 'We may ask you to do something that may not understand' (basically- DO IT)
by 20+wastedYRS ini will get to the big shocker that i read within the last year or two in a wt study article, so please bear with me... i am new to this forum and have been reading postings for several days now, and can relate totally to many of the issues that many ex-jw have.
i was raised "around" the truth and although my parents were never "dipped", they wouldn't allow us to celebrate holidays or stand for natl anthem (not that i care now).
so i basically had many of the pressures and stress that witness kids had growing up, but with no spiritual support, as we attended only a handful of meetings while my parents studied when i was 5or6.

Hello and welcome!
I agree about the ministry being a pyramid scheme. I was just thinking that yesterday but instead of taking your money, they take your time and, ultimately, your life.

My husband is not going to divorce me after all!
by doublelife inso yesterday, my husband gets out of bed and eats breakfast.
then, he comes back over to me and at this point, he doesn't even tell me to get out of bed and get ready for the meeting anymore.
instead, he asked me if i wanted to go.

hubert,
Probably not. His dad has read the book and when my husband found it, he tried to turn him into the elders for apostasy. But, he wasn't able to get the book away from his dad for proof. The proof would have been that his dad's handwriting was in the book. All that happened before we met. Come to think of it, I wonder if his dad post on here. He used to be an elder but now he is inactive. He told someone recently that he'll never go back because he has a problem with the way things are organized.

Billy: Ha ha! That's funny. But you're right, I'm not wicked enough to do that.
HappyGuy: That's a good suggestion and yes, I still love God. But as for the family study, we never had that to begin with. My husband has always been a self-proclaimed lazy jw. He never studies and he doesn't even pray except for when he eats. I would never have admitted this to anyone at the time, but, that's one of the reasons I married him. My mom was such an overly strict jw that I knew I didn't want to marry someone like that. But he was very good at fooling my family into thinking he was spiritual.
