troubled former witness calls legal department at the watchtower organization.............. dale beckman says, can the "society" be guilty of "alienation of affection?

" in my case, my family has been told it is proper to hate me and to do nothing to help me in any way - otherwise, they could be considered a sharer in my works of "unforgivable sin.

" they are told not to even greet me.

Rick, thanks for sharing. A sad thing to see indeed. I wish this man has some sort of success. He seems to deserve it.

Watching the video really made me nauseous about what I've been a part of all these years.

Also, hearing that call to the society, I was in shock for a moment. The brother that initially answered and connected this man to the legal department is someone I know. There is no mistaking his voice. And he sounded like a prick once he realized this call wasn't for "spiritual assistance". What a surprise.

Paintedtoenail - Time for an upgrade?? LOL

A smartphone makes a great reading/posting station for JWN, at least for me.

I have to be stealthy. But I actually am on here, normally just reading, a few times a day. Do you have a smartphone? That works great for me.

God: The Abusive Boyfriend

http://conversationalatheist.com/general-essays/god-the-abusive-boyfriend/.

ways the christian god is like the most extreme version of an abusive (and possibly psychotic) boyfriend:needs constant praise and makes you feel guilty for just being human.has severe jealousy issues.he lets painful experiences happen to you that he could easily prevent, just to test your devotion to him.claims credit for everything good in your life; claims nothing bad in your life comes from him.threatens you with eternal torture if you ever leave him.he is constantly swearing that he loves you and you need him.

(thanks richard collins).ways to tell if you are in danger of being taken advantage of in a relationship with this abusive god:you are highly defensive of him from even the slightest criticism of his flaws.you talk to him every night, and he never responds yet still expects unwavering devotion.

Baltaar447 - Even if though it's not yours, thanks for sharing!!

I haven't yet classified myself as atheist. But I definitely do not go on the defensive when people bash God.

I can no longer sit back and accept that if he/she/it is real, empty promises continue to be m ade by such a being and believed by people despite no action taking place.

How much longer? There is nothing wrong in asking that, and now I realize it.

I heard a voice from Spirit, Dont be afraid, I am God.

by mosesimon in

i heard a voice from spirit, dont be afraid, i am god.

then i looked into the bible automatically, which was open in my hands, then i saw chapter name holy spirit, written on it, like psalms, matthew , through bible only god talking with me by writing letters in it.

god told,"i am blessing you, do my work, convert hindus as christians.
