  quote from the watchtower, simplified edition, september 2015, "how can we show that we love jehovah?".

  higher education often makes them lose their love for god..

  no matter how hard i try to live my life according to God he will never forgive me and i suffer the consequences by being destroyed or eternal hell fire.

  
  06 .................... sweetheart, spiritually speaking there is no unforgiveable sin! It is all made up to control & extort! Don't fall for it anymore. You are FREE.............if you want to be free. There is no Armageddon .......all made up.! You don't need a sky-daddy to forgive anything!

  From this day forward, see yourself as a good, caring person. Live your life without looking over your shoulder for an invisible killer ......he doesn't exist. If there were a god of love he wouldn't be making you feel so scared. Learn to love yourself and stand up for your natural rights for a decent life.

  After 2 years my parents make contact. The end result is that I promise them to cryogenically preserve ONLY their heads

  by paulmolark in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it has been 2 and a half years since my departure from the religion.

  i was told by my parents from the start that i would never speak to them until i returned to jehovah dog.

  a few months later they told people they hoped i died before the end came, then all of this culminating in them telling my inactive / fading sister that they don't consider me a child anymore and they have given me up to satan.

  Unscripturally Free To Be Married - the Contradications

  by Ohiamfree in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  so far i have worked out 2 challenges to this ridiculous, stupid cruel imposed rule that results in disfellowshipping.

  (1) if someone is still scriptually married after a divorce, and moved back in with their ex, they would be disfellowshipped.

  so then on what grounds did you ever mean someone was still married?

  Two of our exjw's were given such a hard time by the elders. They were both free to remarry but the 'sister' had no proof to show the elders without outright stalking her ex to take pictures etc of his actions. They did marry but suffered the wt consequences of 3 yrs of being df'd for disobeying elders & getting married!

  Their story is well documented on a collection of videos. Starts @ about 2:57

  In your opinion: What would a teacher of the English language say about the way Anthony Morris III speaks?

  by LogCon in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  considering the language, wording and grammar of anthony morris iii, if a teacher on the english language, at a prestigious university were to analyze anthony's public speaking, what comments and conclusions would they come to?

  i say public speaking, because i would assume that an individual would be more careful with their words when spoken in public, than in private.

  serious comments would be appreciated, however, i realize that outlaw and a few others are probably on a page of their own.. .

  For me the real kicker was that old rubber face Lett was the first GB to give his "welcome" and with arms flinging about ...give his momentous talk! hahahah biggest mistake they ever made was to take those dopes out of hiding!

  i took a quick trip to the store and i happened to see a young man (about 26-28 years old) who got baptized about the same time i was leaving- about 2 years ago.

  a couple of pioneer sisters found him in the door to door work.

  one of them, a very attractive girl.

  No one really knows.......so feel your emotions & think your own thoughts, they are as correct as anyone else's.

  Compassion & hugs to all here who are so painfully grieving right now.

  Somehow this quote helps me, thanks Adjusted for posting it.

  "I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”

  having a dark night of the soul

  by Miss Behaving in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm writing this here because i need someone to talk to, and you're the only folks i know who will understand.

  most of the time i think i'm a pretty happy and together person, but lately, i'll see something that reminds me of my family and i'll spontaneously start crying.

  i miss them so much and my heart keeps breaking, and even though i have kind people i work and volunteer with, i feel so incredibly lonely sometimes.

  Dear Miss.... sorry about your situation, I know it hurts so bad. Most exjw have been or are there too. Try to see the healing process as steps you are climbing........some steps are really high and broken but keep struggling upward ....you will reach the top where your life becomes normal. There is always the hope of family waking-up as wt gets more crazy & is exposed for the haters they have become.

  Steve thanks for posting this......."Everything's been covered!". Except the abuse.

  Yes, "everything" and nothing - nothing about addressing the actual reasons people left in the first place.

  A lovely, white-washed invitation that demonstrates how widespread the denial is in "Jehovah's" organization.

  JWs - how easily the talk about love - how seldom they follow it with action. "

  Many times my mind gets stuck on their statements and critical thinking fails to show up .......... almost like my brain doesn't shift gears. Anyway thanks for those marvelous words......clarity
