Yes great to be prepared. But their experience is so insular and unreal, To them this would seem perfectly normal. Not a word about neighbors next door or those down the block. No community involvement.
It is all about us ....that is the message! The rest of the world does not exist. They are all goners anyway.
The gb is slyly smiling. Goal accomplished.

faithful and always so very discrete in many things but when it comes to the lord's money not so good.. i think as it begins to register in their minds as to what a terrible job they have done as ceos of a large corporation leading it into this condition that thoughts of suicide come from.
not to mention the shame at being a public spetical to the world by the rc.
all these things and more are creeping through their denial as they are forced to face reality.
Many still do not know about Beth Sarim & Beth Shan. Not much has changed except instead of One overfed narcissist there are seven.
Actually Rutherford did kill himself ...he drank himself to death!

dear anthony morris, iii:.
i wanted to send you a note of "thanks" on this special day.. why is this day special, you may ask?
one year ago today, you, tony, woke me up to the fact that the governing body could not have jehovah's blessing or direction.. last year, on november 8th & 9th, 2014, the united states branch visit was broadcast to over 1,000,000 jehovah's witnesses across the country.. as i sat at the kingdom hall listening to the "historic occasion," i was ignoring certain doubts that had surfaced in the few months prior.
Imagine the cocky assuredness of that idiot. Does that show how little respect he has for his 8 million slaves ......it should!
For the first time, he had a huge captive audience hanging on his every word. They sit all bathed & dressed in their finest apparel ....waiting for a leader's magical directions ...... and he just throws them garbage.
Thanks for posting this Sean.

that the paradise may or may not be real?
that the things you have been taught for many years from the jehovah's witnesses may not really be as they say?
has it really ever really hit you with that "pow" of reality ever?
Yes almost like real scales or curtains that I blinked away ...most amazing feeling & realizations.
If you have ever removed moss from a roof, it felt like that, like a pressure hose removing chunks of moss until it is gone. As each awful belief was loosened & removed it was like waking-up from a bad dream.

i've just spent a big part of today watching interviews, debates etc with richard dawkins.
when i was a jw i used to hate this man with all my energy, i looked on him as the devil's offspring, he represented an idea that totally terrified me.
today i found myself saying i love the man.
When I finally 'found' Hitchens I was blown away by his mind. Nothing much stopped him. Loved his arrogance and cried when he died.
Yes you have stepped over the line Marv......but in a good way!

"don't be dismayed by good-byes.
a farewell is necessary before you can meet again.
and meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.
Who the heck is Vivianne ....don't remember her/him!
Have a wonderful life Eden .....that is the goal after all.
when i left the watchtower i realised it was best to put friendships on hold.
however i mentioned to my best friend that i didn't agree with how they handled child abuse issues and that was one of the reasons i left.. anyway as i am fortunate and own two rental apartments and he is a plumber so we have kept in contact, in that i email him when i require his services and he sends me the invoice.
anyway i am now dissociated, but yesterday i emailed him about a pluming problem, and he replied.. " sorry we missed going to the indian ( this was a comment made about us having a meal together about 9 months ago, which i backed out of because i felt he was too indoctrinated and i had not disassociated myself) anyway his email continued:-.
Not sure if you are male or female Rebel .... but if male, by all means meet-up, good friends are gold. If you are female .... I smell a rat!
listening to clips of the latest manipulative video from the watchtower i realised how much i detest that word - jehovah.. sometimes i have thought it would be interesting to observe a meeting or part of a convention.
every time i heard that word i would be unable to stay in my seat.. i have a visceral reaction every time i hear it.
it stands for so much that i have contempt for.
Not only saying it but I hate typing it! Or even worse typing Joooooo's Wooooooos! aaaaahhhh
i know we are all anonymous for our own personal reasons, so i understand if you would rather not say.
but if you don't mind sharing that would be cool.
i currently live in georgia, usa.
Anyone remember a year or so ago, when Simon suggested having 'our' flag beside our names/avatar to show the country we were from?
I would love to see that happen.
