Apologies to BE and to you WannaExit, I spoke from my personal perspective, I just couldn't seem myself doing it for that amount of time. Glad to hear of his success in waking others.

Outraged After Watching The May 2017 Broadcast

by pale.emperor in

ok, so i've just put myself through another months broadcast so i can see what bull they're feeding my still in relatives.

all was going fine... well, i say fine, i mean the usual cheesy videos, rehearsed reactions from jeffrey jackson (you remember him, the one who told half truths and lies at the royal commission) and propaganda from jw land.. the last feature brings up 9/11 and the paris 2015 attack at the bataclan.

just as im thinking "how are they gonna spin this in their direction" i hear these words:.

I wouldn't worry about those videos. I have a feeling they are creating more apostates every month with that garbage. Those idiots are so tone deaf they don't realize the damage they cause.

Ah so bible Examiner you are the savior we all need to praise because you stay in "undercover" and can name drop unlike the rest of us.. Or maybe we simply choose not to name drop and enjoy our freedom day after day, while you go out in field service on your Saturday mornings. Quite the saint you are!

As Rebel already pointed out eloquently, your participation in the cult (16 years after joining the board!) is not a badge of honor. Its simply an admission you are quite comfortable in your little prison, because the company is good.

In the end, we all live with our choices. I'm quite happy with mine, there are scars of course, but I'd rather have take the damage that comes with those decisions rather than lack the pair of balls necessary to fight that battle.

Brooklyn Brothers Signworks... WUT?

by schnell in

jw
friends

the ad for this site came up here on jwn.

http://www.brooklynsignworks.com/jw/?gclid=cp7ppbzr_tacfy-baqodwocm1a.

i was not aware that these cart signs were being made and sold by essentially a private company or proprietorship.

A few years ago I kicked around the idea of creating an ecommerce site that sells JW shit, trinkets, pins, all that garbage we see posted on social media. Imagine, JWs funding my heathen apostate lifestyle.

Good point Smiddy, exactly what I noticed when I asked him after the OP why he was still supporting the WTS. Also the first sentence out of his mouth, "there was no way out" was interesting to me, but of course the OP sidestepped the question.

Sounds like a dick.

Why are you going, if you don't support the WTS?

How can elders say how Jehovah feels?

by Sour Grapes in

when we look at the total universe imagine a jar of sand.

just one grain of sand would be our galaxy so we may be able to see our earth with an electron microscope.

with that in mind, it always made we cringe when at the meetings an elder would say "jehovah has prepared a spiritual banquet for us tonight," or "it makes jehovah happy that we made the effort to attend the meeting tonight.

LostGeneration

If Jehobo really did prepare the meeting material, wouldn't it be the shit? I mean the absolutely most interesting, intriguing, blow your mind stuff? The best ever, right? He created the freaking universe, right people??

So why do I remember time slowing down to a crawl at each and every meeting? Its like those two hours expanded to five or six!! It was so boring, repetitive, and mind numbing!

Now I see the material and its even worse! Dumbed down to a third graders level. Whiteboard animations on how to go to the convention?? If he's actually behind this he's a damn ignorant God figure.
