  i finally had the guts to create a profile to be able to post.

  i've been lurking for a few months and have read all your experiences and comments dutifully.

  you have been a great help in my process of waking up from this cult posing as the one true religion.

  I've seen a lot of DarkMatters2525 videos and they are also hilarious.

  Ever watch the "Our Bloodthirsty Bible" series from TheThinkingAtheist?

  I love those videos too!

  Awesome 3rdgen!

  Sounds like you really enjoyed yourself.

  I attended my very first halloween party this year.

  And guess what? I did the same thing!

  I told people that this was my first Halloween party ever.

  Naturally they asked why. I mentioned I was raise a JW and that led to some interesting conversation.

  If was awesome though. I really enjoyed myself. And I believe you did as well at your party.

  Congrats!

  Hello everyone!

  ive been lurking for a while and finally got around to registering.

  about me: i was essentially born in & indoctrinated from youth.

  i was always a borderline "bad association" type because i always did the minimum and always disagreed with much of what was taught; even when i was a child.. luckily for me my father was never a jw so i never had to endure the male head pressure.

  Online Watchtower publications archives?

  by slimboyfat in

  years ago i remember there being a number of sites with pretty extensive archives of watchtower publications online.

  can anyone direct me to the best current site for this material?

  in particular i am looking for a booklet from 1898 called "the bible vs. the theory of evolution".

  I too have wondered about slimboyfat's return.

  He seems to have been silent on the matter.

  Regardless, thanks for the links everyone!

  As a Matter of Conscience, I Am Resigning from the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses

  2. beliefs

  after listening to the hearings of the australian royal commission into institutional responses to child sexual abuse, i am no longer content to have simply walked away from the organization.

  as a matter of conscience, i do not want my name linked with the organization in any way.

  i know this letter has been posted previously, and i thank the author.

  Did an EX-JW wake you up to TTATT or did you put the effort to wake up yourself?

  by John Aquila in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  how many of us were woken up by some apostate yelling false prophets at a convention?.

  how many of us were woken up by someone holding a sign and yelling, what happened to 1975.

  how many of us were coerced to investigate the wt because some ex-jw pulled up a bunch of old watchtowers magazines and told us to read the false predictions?.

  Crisis of Conscience

  I woke myself up after being a ministerial servant for almost 10 years.

  Only after waking up did I reflect on the the things of the past.

  I recall being about 17 that while going door to door, a woman told me JWs were a cult and I was brainwashed.

  Naturally at the time I denied it.

  Now I wish it would have moved me to action.

  Oh well, about 10 years later it made sense.

  I'm out now. I'm glad.

  I stopped using Atomic browser since it seems to no longer be supported since I think iOS7. I hadn't noticed any updates.

  I used that browser in the past and loved it. But once I started noticing issues I moved on.

  i was feeling particularly hopeless about the whole jws being assholes thing and sick to death of pretending so ....

  i rang my sister and told her that i no longer believe jws have the truth and the phone went silent, when i asked her to say something she just said if that was the case then she would have to hang up on me and then proceeded to indeed hang up..

  so i texted her back immediately with fu..

  I wish you the best sparrowdown!

  You seem rather positive, although I know emotions come in waves.

  Either way, kudos to you on your bravery and choosing to life life.

  Reality is now. Be happy being you.
