Campaign... I would say just start to really "live your conscience" You don't have to prove anything to anyone but yourself. Take your time and read everything you can. Not sure how long you were in but when you get to the point of having a paradigm shift (and if your experience is like mine you will have several) it does seem a little overwhelming. Just breathe and live your life. Try to make some connections outside of the religion and just discuss life with your new connections.

If you start to live your conscience you will most likely be forced to make a decision about leaving the religion but that will not happen right away. You have time.

I should also say if you have children though, you have less time. As a born in witness it was very difficult for me to leave because I grew up in the religion and had tremendous loss (like many others here) Children need to be shown that the jw way of growing up is not normal.

Waking up and asking questions is exciting and scary at the same time. Go for it, make your own new normal and enjoy the rest of your new life!

Lets pretend jw's disappeared

by atheist_R_stupid in

and joined your ranks.... this means...youre talking about a people, that currently are pushing no sex till marriage.

that would end and join into the messages you currently push regarding youths and sex.

that would be sex, with condoms.

shit........ I love pretending the jw's have disappeared, but nope... still here. Ex still doesnt want anti cervical cancer vaccine for our children, still doesn't want them to go to college, still does not want them to play sports (all the 10 year old kids that are bad association), still does not want them to go to a birthday party.

ARS.... its been a while since a good dub supporter has been around. I have one request and one prediction. I request that you post as much as possible and I predict you will not be posting in 6 months. You may not realize it but you WILL help ALOT of people here but not in the way you think.

Remember..... LOTS of posts please!

Your explanation for a total contradiction in the New World Translation.

by Johnny Brown in

"for if you publicly declare with your mouth that jesus is lord,+ and exercise faith in your heart that god raised him up from the dead, you will be saved.

10 for with the heart one exercises faith for righteousness, but with the mouth one makes public declaration+ for salvation.

11 for the scripture says: no one who rests his faith on him will be disappointed.+

9,000,000 children die every year before they reach the age of 5. That is 10,000 children A DAY.

Your god or any god for that matter did not care about you and your 150 mph crash. You just got lucky.

What's with this "no windows in kingdom halls" thing?

by Trapped in JW land in

jw
friends

i hear many people on this forum say that kh's don't have windows.

but i have never been to one that didn't have windows.

is this only in a certain area or something?.

pbrow

The reason is simple follow the money....

A large portion of kingdoms halls dont have windows because putting windows in costs more than just putting up a wall. I know, i know... its not sexy.. its not jdubs killing chickens or anything like that.

Constructions costs are cheaper the fewer windows you have.
