by Gayle inhttp://bigstory.ap.org/article/d926d4a36d614dfe969eba2b632fb3ce/jehovahs-witnesses-could-get-1-billion-nyc-properties.
hopefully, some jws will read this, and question how the wt is getting all this money, and question where is it really going?.

1 billion dollars, what the hell are they doing asking for more money from the rank & file? They must be stock piling it somewhere. -

Another example of selfish wordly people..
by defender of truth instorm desmond - how kindness is keeping cumbria afloat.
read here:.
today, we are grateful to receive warnings that help us not to have a selfish attitude like that of most in the world.

& where were JW's when all this selfishness was taking place. Worrying only about themselves I bet. What a bunch of A holes. -

Blackwolf, when people leave the borg most start out with 0 friends so although you feel alone actually your not. Just keep going little steps it will come, you already join in on here. I have noted though that we who have left/faded or whatever are afraid of truly opening up & letting others in for a while, hence why most use code names (like me) we have to breath through our fear. Maybe that person hasn't truly left & they are trying to catch me out & go tell the elders. I know that is sometimes how I feel. JW breed paranoia to their members. What I'm trying to say is don't panic, it's not you, it's not personal, it's just the way it has to be for a bit. Hug, Hug, Hug. -

Lisa rose, I'm so glad you wrote that, when I see these pic's my stomach flips over & I think " oh no what if I'm wrong" I wonder how many others feel that way & are afraid of saying so incase everyone jumps on the band wagon & puts them down. That is why I'm careful of what I read from the org. Old habits die hard a.
Thank you Outlaw, a pic to counter act a pic. I love the fact you do that.

"Most women would prefer to be stay at home housewives. Women's lib did alot of damage to women!"
by purrpurr inthe above is a quote from a jw female relative.
this was in response to a discussion about the suffragette movement ( and the movie about it that's currently in cinemas).
she seemed to think that it would be so much better if women were just daughters/ wives/ mothers and didn't go out to work and have career's?

How much of a " free-spirit" are you?
by The Rebel ini think every one wants to be a " free- spirit", but what does that really mean?.
i ask the question because :-.
a) i decided i would not give the religiouse organisation i belonged to the power to force me to rebel within its organisation, when the " free-spirit" inside me no longer wanted to be controlled by this religion.. b) i now realise the " free-spirit" within me that demanded independence from w.t control has also come with great consequences, which has now made the price of my liberation seem shallow.. anyway i am not well educated, but i do now appreciate the psychological and emotional consequences my actions have had on my family, and friends.

Wilmington Delaware Media report in another Topic
by truthlover insexual abuse by a female member of a 14 year old in the congregation and elders being sued by the county --- now that co's are liable for the elders only - does that mean the elders will lose everything if fines are levelled against them, since the society has washed their hands and separated themselves by setting the co in place??

Any one looking on with half a brain will get that the WTBTS passing on the responsibility & removing themselves from being what you (simon T) said, no longer directly involved, have in fact by that action admitted their guilt. People who have nothing to hide, hide nothing, they are up front & open, they don't hide. -

Even Now, You Haunt Me...
by Garrett ineven after leaving the organization, it still lurks in the background like a shadow.. as some of you know, i met a wonderful girl a while ago (which i'm going to need your help with).
she is a catholic and i am open and very respectful of her beliefs.
however, i know there will be a time where i will have to tell her that i once was a witness... and to be honest, i'm quite scared of that.. i don't want things to be ruined between us because of a disgusting cult that i was in.

Honesty is the best policy.

Muslims vs. JWs as friends
by Driving Force inthis is not meant to be a controversial discussion, but just mentioning what has happened to my daughter.. i personally started my fade early this year 2015, it has resulted in my losing all my so called jw friends and the brake-up of my marriage.
when i split up with my wife, she asked our daughter who she would like to live with, my daughter decided to live with me, and also abandoned the cult.. recently my daughter told me that she is very disappointed with the congregation of jehovah's witnesses because she thought she had friends there, but now she has realized that it was all conditional, not a single one of them has even remotely tried to keep contact with my daughter, she is 15, not baptized and never a publisher.. now yesterday she met up with a jehovah's witness friend who is in another congregation.
this friend is also 15, baptized since she was 14, a very dominant elder father, and has virtually no association outside jw circles, and also internet access is banned at home.

yes smiddy they do, my husband no longer goes to the meetings, he has done so much for so many jw's they were always round when they wanted something from him & now nothing they shun him. He couldn't believe it at first he just said "so all that help means nothing cause I don't go to the KH?" Yes it means nothing. He was so shocked at how nasty they really have proven to be & so now they can F...Off. He doesn't even want them in his house. You (smiddy) sound surprised, don't be it's always the same with controlling people once you say no to them they go.
Driving force, your girl is better off without some stupid jw teenager who probably just said that to try & make her self feel better bout her own situation, the reality is she is most likely jealous of your daughter cause your a more loving father then her own. Why else be so nasty.
