  What was your initial reaction to finding out the religion is a cult?

  mine was filled with shock and anger but mostly anger.

  it made me feel that way because i have never been lied to like that growing up in the religion with it being all you know.

  "Well that explains a lot"

  Followed by a few sleepless nights

  Then a feeling of peace and relief.

  Amazes me how elders act.....

  most of you know that my husband (iron hill) and i have been trying to do the fade from the witnesses....here's the update!

  my husband's ex wife who is disfellowshipped decides all of a sudden that she wants to get reinstated - i guess cuz we decided not to go anymore - and the guilt of their daughters dying in armageddon is killing her.

  but anyway, she asked us if we would be ok with her coming and taking the girls to the meetings on the weekends that are ours.....my husband denied.

  Hi LoriJis,

  I am sorry to hear (but not surprised) at how these hypocrites have treated you and your husband. I can sympathise with your anger as I spent years being angry at the Elders in my ex-cong. Even by JW standards they have certainly acted outside the rules, but this seldom makes any difference in dub land.

  I hope you can now move on and that the reality of being disassociated is actually a lot easier and more liberating than you thought it would be. You are certainly not alone and will always find supportive friends here on JWN. If you ever want to chat or just get things off your chest feel free to send me a PM.

  Love Little Sis

  Yes mum still had a slice of cake so her principles must be fairly flexible.

  Atheist: What words of comfort do you give when you find out someone is terminally ill?

  by cyberjesus in

  2. friends

  i found out someone i know is terminally ill. before i would put my jw hat and give them comfort from the bible and the hope of resurrection.

  but now that i dont believe in paradise nor in heaven what do you say to someone who is terminally ill and still has some religious beliefs?.

  Let’s face it whatever we personally choose to believe none of us know for sure what happens when we die so why cause more pain to others at such a time.

  We all feel regret about forcing JW nonsense in people faces in the past so let’s not make the same mistake with whatever new belief we now have.

  Perhaps rather than worrying about what is to come we should make the most of now, show the person they are loved and that we are there for them.

  Don't bicker, you words reminded me that though miss guided I think Russell believed what he started, while Rutherford I am not so sure. However, there is no excuse for those now in control.

  The next question I think is if you were in charge of a religion that you knew was a load of bull, but had tons of money in the bank what would your next move be?
