The encouragement was for me Grace...your are such a nice woman that I can no longer call you Mouthy. By the way, I like your definition of "young"...I am a grand-father twice! But then again I am young at heart and the happiest I've ever been since I broke free 3 years ago.

A few months ago I found out Mouthy lived a short drive away from where I live and we communicated by PM. So this morning I called her and was able to meet with her for coffee. What a pleasure it was to finally meet her. It was the first time I spoke face to face with someone who escaped from the WT cult and I felt very comfortable opening up to her. I felt inner peace following our conversation. Mouthy has genuine and unconditional love for everyone, including some of her
children and grandchildren who will have nothing to do with her... how sad. Although she still is an ardent believer in Christ, she understood why at this time in my life I don't believe in anything. I found out that I one time we both went to the same Kingdom Hall but in different congregations and that we knew some of the same people. After we parted I felt inner peace and happiness to have met someone who has experienced the same challenges I have been dealing with during the last few years. Thank you
Grace for being Mouthy on JWN and kindly helping so many.

This WT book allows one raised as a JW to do a critical review of the religion and elders can't go against it.
by EndofMysteries ini love this gem, it was taken off the jw.org website, it seems only material after 1990 is up now, but it's here, http://www.scribd.com/doc/5472988/the-time-for-true-submission-to-god .
page 6, "the need to search for the truth".
says this....and i couldn't agree with it more!

Why do JWs feel compelled to attribute all kind gestures to their religious training and not to their own kind nature? Of course JWs must be humble and can't take some merit for themselves. I have witnessed many selfless interventions and never did I hear the person say it was because he's Jewish or Catholic. Can't it just be that they are kind?

Every time I talk to my mom, she sounds like she is sick or dead tired, she acts so sad...
by Comatose init's depressing.

My mom and JW family never called me when I was an active JW and a MS...so nothing has changed when I became inactive. I'm always the one trying to keep in touch. Their excuse is that they are very busy with the truth but they bitch when they don't hear from me for a long time.

JW.org FAQ - a new video on "Are Only Jehovah's Witnesses going to be saved?"
by RayPublisher injw.org faq trickery #1 - are only jehovah's witnesses going to be saved?.
from the description:.
if you have been associated for any length of time with the jehovah's witnesses you know that they believe they are the only true religion and the only ones that will be saved before the war of armageddon.

When the above question is asked it really means will JWs be the only ones saved at Armageddon...but they avoid answering this question. Instead they divert attention to the salvation through resurrection of "unrightous" ones who obviously aren't JW...all good lawyers use this method to avoid answering embarrassing questions.
Edit: I hadn't read St George's comment...glad to see we're on the same page!

I remember how a Co said that there is something wrong with a marriage when the husband doesn't pray with is wife at bedtime...I felt guilty for not praying out loud before going to sleep especially when my wife expected me to after his comments...the CO said he and his wife would kneel down at the foot of their bed every night and he prayed for her...For me I rarely felt like praying even when I was fully indoctrinated.
