  The theme of loyalty comes to its conclusion in the bunker video. All you need to do is remain together as JWs and you'll be saved. Kevin left and didn't make it through.

  Each and every member of this board reaches more people than they ever did going from D2D , with more effect.

  i was just reflecting about this site and it`s influence on me and what i have got out of it and it came to me that whatever subject i bring up , or others bring up , the obvious thing is we engage in discussion .that`s what it`s all about .. however , the feedback we get or the input we give , far outweighs anything we ever achieved going from d2d for the wtb&ts./ wt real estate agency /publishing house .. how many times did you have a meaningful discussion with a person at a door ?, as a jw ?

  not many i would think.. the majority of times , they were not home or not opening the door to you , so even if you did meet people they were too busy to talk to you or they just were not interested.. whereas , here on this board you engage with many people from all over the world , and we can discuss a subject as long as we want.until it runs it`s course.. i think anybody who posts here has had far more satisfaction in their interaction with other people on this board than they ever experienced in the d2d work as a jw.. and i hope that people who just lurk here can see the benefits of open discussion in a forum like this without judgement and recriminations that occur in the jw religion for speaking your mind.. smiddy.

  An exJW for Prez?!! Peace, for Prince!

  by Spartacus II - The Equalizer in

  it appears there is about a million voting age jws in the us right now.

  it appears there is 8 million ex jws or in the shadows.. if those 8 million would have the guts to come out for a presidential candidate to come out, we can finally end the slavery, tyranny and corruption in this and many other circles.. cowards die many times but a hero only dies once.

  and cowards die in revelation.. so, to you reading this, are you a coward or a true steward of the earth and creation?.

  Let me get this straight, I have to promise to support you and then you will reveal yourself and your personal information?

  Could you, at the very least, reveal something that we don't already know?

  Why isn't the Boston Globe doing a better job?

  why isn't the boston globe doing a better job covering this group?.

  after all, the movie spotlight won an oscar about this paper and their groundbreaking journalism into the catholic church covering child abuse.

  Don't believe anyone is up there listening - said a prayer anyway out of sense of obligation

  by Zoos in

  i've read many statements on this forum from people who have expressed the sentiment that you don't shove ttatt down the throat of an older person.

  it would be too traumatic and its best to let some people, in some situations, simply pass on in the delusion.. its humane.

  merciful.. in the initial roar of my awakening, i was unable to cuddle up to that sentiment; preferring, instead, to shove the blood curdling shock of truth down the throat of anyone i could get my grip on... age be dammed.
