Yeah @ steve2, he's really gone off the deep end over the years. A shame because i love his music (he's not too nice to his fans from what I hear).

Yeah, there are a lot of JW's who are LGBT in hiding. Jehovahs Witnesses also make fun of gay people, but they hide that too. But there suppose to be so 'different.'

Jehovah's Witnesses are NOT false prophets
by SloppyJoe intonight on the service meeting we discussed why jws are not false prophets.
of the ten minute part two were spent discussing that jws just had wrong expectations and only very minor changes over the years although nothing specific was mentioned.
the other eight focused on the core bible truths that have remained the same over the years.

Reverse-Witnessing leaves me mentally and emotionally drained...
by ILoveTTATT inhi dear friends!.
i am doing some stealth reverse-witnessing, and i have succeeded in at least two people seeing ttatt, one being my friend and the other being my dad (although my dad has a longer route to take to exit the wts, and i have to slowly chip away at the illusion).... the illusion of jw's is very strong.
they give an illusion of being moral and decent people, and that may be true just because the majority of the people they attract are just being deceived, or i really like to believe that and hope for the best.. what i hate and leaves me emotionally drained are jw apologists.

Yes, reverse witnessing is tough work.

JW upbringing - the gift that keeps on taking
by Simon inthe things they take from you:.
first they take your childhoodthen they take your familyfinally they take your memorieswe all know that you limit your social interactions so you have few school friends who are not jws.

I have mixed emotions reading this thread...
One of my biggest goals is to have a successful life away from being a Jehovahs witness. I am 30 year old, and I want to prove EVERYONE WRONG, my J dub family, former kingdom hall 'homies' etc, that I can survive without the help from 'the towers.' I'm taking it step by step everyday. I was SO DEPENDENT on my parents throughout my 20's (especially my mid 20's), and if I could go back, would have left the hall with I was 18. I am still working on my dependency issues, but lets face it: WE WERE NOT RAISED TO BE FIGHTERS, TO SURVIVE IN THE WORLD. We werent told that we could be all we could be (I know it sounds corny, but its true). We basically were taught to: wait on Jehovah, wait on the faithful and discreet slave to clear the matter up, etc. One thing I do know is that I'm gonna have to stop communicating with certain JW's cause I have to get that out of my system. I think I'm gonna do a video on this 2nite.
Revisiting this thread!
