I wish to apologize regarding my last sentence on this thread. What I wanted to say was no rest for the living. I have a high respect for any family who has lost a loved one or friend. I seem to get off topic on this forum at times and I will correct this problem.

I want out but can't get out because of my born in wife. I'm approaching the point where I might pack it in. Just today at a funeral at the lacal Kingdom Hall I was approached by an elder and asked if I would cosider pioneering for 30 hours this April. My reply was no. Seems like there is no rest for the dead these days. LOL

I'm still in the Borg, but when I do my exit I would not return due to the fact of what the KISS (607 vs 587) approach did for me & other WT$ delusions.

It might be better to not even have the Internet. April 15th WT
by life is to short inok i was just blown away when i heard this today while driving, at first i thought it was the some old same old but then it went on and it seems like it is on a different level.. the subheading is "guard your heart by exercising self-control.
on page 27 par 17 it says "one way a person could wonder into the foolish course of the "young man in want of heart" is by aimlessly flipping though television channels or surfing the internet.
whether intentionally or not, he might chance upon sexually stimulating scenes.

I like the internet due to the fact when I found JWN it woke me up ragarding the Borg. The internet is educational, informative and I some times shop on line for a good deal.

How Dare The Organization!!!
by minimus inhow dare these people!.
they pretty much force you to pioneer, not pursue a good education, become a "servant" to their whims!.
they don't want you accepting overtime at work because stupid meetings and door knocking is more important.. they accept pedophiles in their midst more than they accept anyone that questions their authority!.

I have to agree with you. It's all about the money and numbers. The WTS doesn't make policy, policy makes up the WTS. I read that some where on this forum.

If Your Husband (wife) is Still In - -
by Had To Go indo you vacillate between caring that he/she is still entrapped in this cult and wanting to show them everything you have learned since your awakening and not wanting to rock the boat and therefore just keeping all this knowledge to yourself?
i wonder if it is normal to go back and forth like i do.
one day i want to tell my husband something i may have read here or on another forum and maybe, just maybe i will pique his interest.

My wife is a born-in jw and has not woke up yet. I am slowly fading out. I do hope the SS Botchtower runs out of fuel in the near future. lol

3/15 WT " Do Not Deceive Yourself "- WT's Excuses for No Armageddon
by flipper inwith the new " overlap generation " theory that the wt society is pushing onto rank and file jehovah's witnesses since last year this article i found really heavy hitting in the jw version of the wt.
the wt society is leaking oil in that confidence is low among jw's in not really buying into the " generation overlap " theory as many younger jw's are exiting the organization.
so what better way to try reeling members back in by giving them an article entitled " do not deceive yourself with false reasoning " !
