Thanks for the update. There is another site off India that was dicovered last spring, I think? I am curious if this is the same place. I will have to look in to it. Also waiting for the exploration to take place off Cuba where a special robot is being constructed in Canada for that purpose. I guess there may be a building 2500 feet under water. This special robot will find out if it is a building or just a rock formation...........I LOVE THIS STUFF!!!!!!!

was this place scary the first time?

by jurs in

here and there a newbie will post and its obvious that they think that this site is for jw's and not ex's.

did any of you ever come across an apostate site on accident?

what about the first time you came here?

This is an example of why the society trys to keep it's members blind by making them read only society published garbage. They keep people in fear of ever trying to broaden their thinking and stopping them from examining sites like this. They really are the borg!!!

For those that've been out of the borg for 25+ yrs

if we were to go back to the borg, would we see any marked difference in the attitudes/environment in the organization?

would it appear more liberal or more strict than it was 20 or more years ago?

or would it appear that not much has changed?.

Jigrigger,

It's been about 22 years for me. I moved to a different state after college and several times, (before I found this site), I attempted to go back. It actually seemed about the same. The "new light" stuff really threw me though. I was actally sitting in a KH when during the wt study, they brought out how "this generation" now has a different meaning. I almost fell out of my seat, but when I looked around, at the members had blank looks as if it was no big deal!!

I briefly mentioned this on a different post, but I started off in high school with my best friend. After high school, my friend became a pioneer and a few years after that I went apostate and left to go to college. My friend, while in school liked Spanish. Soon after I left, I heard how my friend married a spanish girl, moved to a spanish speaking congragation in a different state and pioneered to spanish people. Now many years go by....This past summer, I get an E-mail from my old friend whom tracked me down on the internet. Come to find out he lives only 1 hour away so I drive out to see him for dinner. We meet up and he tells how he went off to college (while raising a family) and is now teachind spanish at a university and working towards his Ph.D.! "Wow I said, so how long have you been out?" I asked. Then he explains that he has been faithfull since high school and has been an elder for many years in the spanish community. It's ok to go to college he said. But to sum this story up, my friend explained that things have changed a lot and was encouraging me to come back. I won't go back but it really sucks!! There was a part of my live where there were people whom were my friends and now I can never associate with them.

Hi Breeze,
