he needs you to do his work for him.
he needs your complete and whole souled devotion.
he needs to be in the first place in peoples lives, ahead of their families and their own needs.

hi eveyone, it has been a longtime since i have stopped in to catch up on news and see how things have change.
for those of you who don't know me i have been on and off the board for 11 years.
i have over 3,500 posts under the name orangefatcat, in the members list.
Hi Orangefatcat I remember you! How is your life outside
of the cult?

I didn't come on here until Aug 2010... but so many who
were on here then have moved on!
I have been noticeing that many, like yourself, are showing up
lately and really it is a shot in the arm, so thanks for being here,
tell us some of the "old" stories why don't you.

this site really helps.. own up, are you a ubm and how do you cope?.
i am really struggling to put up with all the nonsense.
my wife has some mental health issues which are not solved at all.
The Song Remains The Same...don't think I've said WELCOME yet,
so a big welcome here!

Having a partner who is in a cult ... must feel hopeless,
but there are many experiences on here for you to read.
If you haven't looked at posters from the last 12 years...
have a look ...at the bottom, you'll see numbers from 1 ..to.. now, click
on 1. Or SEARCH button at top left handside.

I have no partner so don't have that problem, also see my comments
on Platz1 question about UBM. Good luck!

this was brought up just in passing on another thread.
but i wanted to see if there are any bethelites or ex bethelites that remember some of the crazy rules we had to follow when we were there..

Satanus .... hi where have you been?? We have missed you!

Hope you are doing OK!

Now for all those who truly believe in god ... no offence to you but...

the relationship is kinda like playing dolls. (or trucks).
>
The little girl dresses the doll in clothes she thinks the doll likes, she
makes up a story in her mind about the doll & her! Maybe a tea party where
the doll is having fun ...but then tea is spilled ..DOLL is mad, thinks the girl,
"OK doll you are going to BED!" ....... Doll gets tossed into a little box.
>
Is the doll codependent? No, neither is it dependent. It is all made up!
>
The girl is the only actor in the tea party. The doll .... is just a doll!!!!
>
Can we expect some action from the doll when it awakes? No.

Flipper my dear friend thank you.

this is my first post on jwn, and i would like to take a few lines to introduce myself.. i currently am still in the organization, though my conviction in the last 1-2 years is more or less agnostic/atheist (closer to atheist).
i am an ex-elder and mts graduate, having served in another 3 congregations, apart from my home one.. the reason for the above-mentioned conviction shift has to do with science and rational, logical thinking generally, and with the grand theory of evolution, specifically.
it took me long, endless sessions of hard reading and study of serious scientific literature (plus cross-matching all the quotes and claims in jw evolution-related literature), to finally make the shift from utterly firm religious belief to doubt, and then to lack of religious faith.
Syme ...huge welcome & congratulations on your awakening!

Like you, I find science & world events extremely interesting now,
watchtower condemnation had put a stop to any subjects
which would show them up .....now we are free!

Looking forward to your writings ... hoping all the best for you!

i finally decided to post.
i'm so scared of being caught, so i'll be vague.
i'm an appointed brother.
Good morning Kneehighmia and a big welcome to you!

Lovely to have you here & I wish you great happiness on
this roller coaster journey!

You can breathe deeply now ...you made it over the hurdle!

Looking forward to hearing more of your story...
