Since I faded I've told a few people at work about having been raised in this organization but i found that most people don't really get what it is like at all. They just focus on not celebrating holidays as if that is the worst thing about growing up JW. I didn't explain much because it's too much for most people to handle. They also happen to be Christian so I'd rather not offend them by putting down religion in general. I guess most people just won't understand unless they have had similar experiences.

Maybe a female can wear a jean dress at a meeting or bethel tour? What a joke.
My wife and some other sisters always got counseled about wearing jean skirts or jackets to Saturday morning FS.

If AMG III would return now
by Gorb inif amg iii would return now to the congregation, he would be mad because of:.
- rank & file and elders not reporting fs time, very recent an issue to bring someone in highest correction mode.
- jw's with official beard permission .

Yeah, he was probably pushed out because he wouldn't go along with the "new light." Too much of a hard nose to give people a break.

I predict lots of hipster beards to go with all the damn bow ties they love so much LOL The local elders will all have different ideas of what well groomed means. They just opened a can of worms.

Remember...Remember...The Sixth of November?
by JW_Rogue insome big announcement or reveal is coming from the borg november 6th, according to the exjw reddit.. https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/13xljaa/secret_boxes_to_be_opened_only_in_november_6th/.
what do you guys think it could be?.
my guess is a study companion to go with their new jesus series, they really need to rebrand at this point..

It probably is a new campaign since it was sent to service committee. I still think it might be related to their new Jesus series, maybe an invitation to watch the series on JW.borg. Like someone else mentioned the secrecy could just be a way to get the congregations all excited, similar to the release of the new bible in 2013.

The most powerful had their meeting in Davos
by Kosonen inthe most powerful had their meeting in davos this week.
it is organized by wef.
(world economic forum).

U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky) just make a video about this Davos guys and the "danger of world government...".
So, this is the biblical beast that the world powers give their authority at the end for 'one hour'
Problem solved !It is odd to me that some events do line up with predictions made in the old Revelation book but JWs don't talk about them.

Troubling things are definitely going on lately and people should be concerned about the general direction of technology in our lives. The fact that large corporations and increasingly disconnected politicians are guiding the process is alarming. However, connecting it to an ancient book and some sort of "mark of Satan" is a bit much.

UPDATE: Wife Pretty Much Knows That I Don't Believe
by JW_Rogue inwe had a nice long talk and i brought up some things that make me think that this isn't the "truth" and she somewhat agreed with me.
i stuck with things i personally experienced or had knowledge of plus all the changes in recent years.
she agreed on a lot of the points but still believes in god and the bible.

Thanks, everybody for the kind words! We are free from this religion but still have a lot of things to figure out. Might be hard but we're definitely not heading back to JW land. LOL
