My husband and I have been out for four years now and have accomplished a lot. We had a brand new house built, enrolled in college and belong to the Honors Society, have made some friends, reunited with out non-JW family, changed jobs for the better, but we still have a long way to go.

It has actually been a great turning point in our lives leaving the borg. We were so fortunate to have gotten the break that we did.

I've seen JT too, and he's much better looking than Malcolm X. Words can't explain it!

Oh, one more thing:

I turned my printer on getting ready to print part 14. After several minutes, I sat at my computer wondering why I turned it on in the first place, then remembered that Part 14 would be told yet another day. This is just too funny! I believe you really left your mark on this board.

This is the first time I've read this board with such anticipation to read the next part. I must thank you ever so much for providing such an interesting story. I've certainly enjoyed reading all of your experiences in exiting this dreadful organization. I eagerly await the next part. Hope you have a wonderful day off.

Part 1: Breaking Ground with Crisis of Conscience

by Amazing in

part 1: breaking ground with crisis of conscience .

while attending the district convention at the cow palace in san francisco, the jw man who had brought me into the religion, told me that ray franz had resigned from the governing body, and several were disfellowshipped from bethel in a major cleaning out of apostates.

i was shocked, and asked why ray franz would resign.

Kay Francis

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this piece. Amazing, you are an excellent writer. I really hate to read, but I read every word, every line, and every paragraph to the very tee. Thanks for that wonderful information! My husband experienced this same feeling at the bookstore. He indicated that he was looking around to see if anyone was looking when he ordered the book, and then when he went to pick it up he was afraid that someone would come to the counter at the time he was making his purchase.

But WT could not get "cult" status if you all didn't feel that way.

FYI

When you click on the link, and it asks you to download the Korean language or something to that effect, just cancel it and the newspaper articles downloads just fine.

Working with JWs

by Ivor Hope in

jw
friends

has anyone out there had experience of working for or with jws?.

is it just me, or are they the worst people to work with....they "use" anybody for their own ends, they expect everyone else to make allowances for their life style but are not prepared to make allowances for anyone else's, they do as little as they can for as long as they can and have absolutely no loyalty to their employers or fellow workers!!.

my recent experience is that they also will be "economical" with the truth (the real truth), as long as it benefits them.. maybe i'm a bit biased, but i would never want to work with or for another witness ever again!

Kay Francis

I worked with about 20-25 witnesses, and it was awful. You would walk down the hallway and they would not even speak, then when someone who was a non-witness walked by they had so much to say to them. There were "ricky righteous" JW's and then there were "sleazy" JW's. It spanned the gammet. What I hated the most is the fact that when I worked at other jobs I always had folks to go to lunch with, but at that particular job I could not get anyone to go out because they always cried broke. Then I could not go out with the non-JW's for fear I'd be labeled a "worldly witness". What a drag! Then, if I wanted to sneak and eat a piece of birthday cake, they wree always around ready to turn you in. I know, I was bad, but you know how your mouth would water when you saw that delicious chocolate cake. LOL

There's a whole laundry list of other things I hated, but I'll save that for another post.
