Damn!!!! I had to look at when this post was originated and realized you DIDN'T bring the chat room back!
whaaaaaaaaaa I miss the chat room.
someone was asking me in the chatroom about the number of hits the site gets.
here is a brief summary (of what we currently get per week):.
21,000 visitors.

i was in the cult for twenty years and da'd in sept. 2014. as time passes i feel that i am ready for more healing.
the fear has passed of being out and i'm never going back to the funny farm.. an excellent book i came across for current and former jw's in the healing process is "exiting the jw cult: a healing handbook" by bonnie zieman.
it's available on amazon kindle for $6.99.
Yes, both books are excellent.
I think there is such a long process to deprogramming from any mind control group. I feel sorry for the walk away believers, they feel something is not right but don't understand the full dynamics of leaving such a group. So they never really deprogram but just drift in life they try to make outside of the control group.
Happy reading!

jt further expounds on why we left the watchtower.
why we left the jehovah's witnesses part 2.
many years ago, my husband and i appeared on the board that was known as h20 aka simon's site.
it has been a while since we have posted anything, so i guess i can say that this is like coming out of retirement.
lol.
Great video!!! Very well done. Was wondering when we would see you two again. Can't wait for more.

i just saw a commercial for a new movie coming out.
spotlight - about a newspaper exposing the cover-ups of the catholic church about child sexual abuse.
michael keaton, mark ruffalo.
Saw Spotlight this afternoon. Excellent movie on child abuse among Catholics in Boston. Was stunned by the timing of the reporters investigating the article that came out in the Boston Globe. It was the same time period Bill Bowen and Barbar Anderson were interviewed by Dateline. Both stories were delayed in the press and public view due to 911 happening in 2001. Both stories were then reported on in 2002.
I highly recommend seeing this movie, knowing how guilty the WT organization is, similar to the Catholics as the world is finding out.
i've always maintained a huge sense of justice, when presented with facts and truth i don't tolerate hypocrisy and "fake" my path in life.
i relate to nancy grace from hln, seeking justice and truth.
many friends tell me i would be a great lawyer for my candor and directness, i don't think soo because i honestly do not like confrontation.
hello everyone, it have been quite a long time since my last visit here, and wow so many new people and it proves to me so many are still leaving the wts and its cohorts the gb.
or rather kings, gee give me a break, our lord jesus christ is the king of kings and lord of lords .
talk about disillusion they are off their rocker.ll .
...with dick and helen kelly.
got to meet joe and barbara anderson and their friend joy on their whirlwind u.s. tour.
wonderful conversation and opportunity to reminisce about our wts experiences and our plans for the future.
i just wanted to say that my dear 89 year old mom is terminally ill and will soon pass.
she is on morphine and hanging on.
she has been a devout witness for about 60 years and a wonderful mother.
talked for about 45 minutes with 2 cart people .
daniel wiebe (his vid) emily, and myself (csf) .
caught them lying 4x on very important topics.
Well done! Especially the calm demeanor and raising points about other religions (or cults) to get the JW's to connect the dots about their own religion and beliefs. (Steven Hassen recommend that tactic).
Be proud of yourself and how well you are deprogramming from a mind control religion.
