Its kinda odd they even bother to mention Jesus. Its not like he's supposed to be King of Kings and Lord of Lords ...and all knees bending to him or something.
.... yet by para 8 or so ... he gets the 'ole WT boot into the back of the bus. Typical.

"Don't Ever Come To My House Again"...says the householder!
by mentallyfree31 insince i have woken up from the horrible wt nightmare 5 months ago, i have had a chance to reflect on things that have happened over 25 years.
one of the things i keep thinking about is householders in the field that would become furious upon seeing me and say rudely "get out of here and don't ever come back to my house again!".
it always struck me as such an awful thing to say.

.... it may simply be some people get extremely upset about being bothered (9am) on their days off or while working.

New here...
by hereiam! insorry if this starts off as a kind of a downer.. i am 29, and my husband and i have stopped going to meetings since last october.
we live in mexico and used to attend the english.
long story short, after realizing how many much we've been lied to we stopped going to our meetings, moved out of the territory, switched to spanish, and after a month of attending just vanished.

¡Bienvenidos a JWN! y mucho gusto hereiam.
Sadness - Normal (I would speak to hubby about that because if you don't, its not fair to him. After all he left with you, no?)
Depression - Normal (speak to the doc about that)
Apprehension - Normal
Family - Beat around the bush until you feel ready to tell them.
Make friends when appropriate, eat as healthy as possible, and be sure to get out of the house for some fresh air.

Leaving Jehovah's Witnesses is a Negative, Depressing Thing To Do, but....
by AllTimeJeff inover the years since i left jehovahs witnesses, one of the more fascinating things to observe, and really to me, the most important, is what to do after you leave.. to be sure, no one leaves because of a positive experience.
and therein lies the issues with leaving.
basically, people leave in three general ways: 1. they, like myself, resign or leave due to a disagreement.

Read whole chapters (which is how I knew scriptures were being taken out of context for a talk) or do a crossword puzzle. (Take individual puzzle pages out odf one of those big Dell books)
Shame that things can get so boring.

Thanks. I read the book of Tobit (not included in the Protestant Bibles) not long ago and at least now have an understanding of where the Pharasees got that woman with seven husbands ressurrection question from to ask Jesus.
I like reading stuff.

No, and why would you care to try? Stop trying to return injury for injury. Leave them behind and move on with your life. Everyone gets whats coming to them sooner or later.
Most you can do is hope they change the faux doctrine to come into the 21st century & stop lying to everyone.
Don't be like them and try to force something on members. People will leave on their own as their eyes are opened.

Highlights from Circuit (2 days) Assembly Be Afraid Very Afraid!!!
by tjlibre inthe content of the program presented at the circuit assembly: safeguard your spirituality served as a re-affirmation that the wt/gb is loosing the grip of rank & file.
they are becoming boulder and boulder in their blatant use of mind control techniques; in my opinion, their mind control techniques used to be more subtle.
but the content of the program in this past assembly clearly reflected that they are acting out of frustration and desperation.

1. Satanas El Diablo???? ¿Como?
Isn't that the little Mexican joint down the street? Why are the employees out to get everyone? Are they serving bad enchiladas or something? ¿ Cómo está pasando allí?
Weird how they think Satan is stronger than God. If they thought the average JW had any real faith, they'd know they could not be easily "swayed." How does one claim Jesus & Jehovah are the most powerful beings in the universe while being so afraid of "lesser" beings?
2. Protect the Org?
Huh? If its really God's Org, whacha doin asking humans to protect it? Such a lack of faith is sad.
3. Doubts are your fault?
Sure the doubts are your fault, never mind we [GB] keep feeding you stuff for 5 yr olds that you are tired of hearing and can't answer your deeper adult questions, nor can we make up our minds what we believe depending on what year this happens to be due to the rotation of planets in the Andromada galaxy. Yep, uh huh.
4. Praise the GB?
Bend your knee to us! We require worship! Forget that Jesus fellow. WE are your Jesus, WE are your mediators!
My thoughts? Oh, just plain FU! I'll take the real mediator. Thanks.
5. Stay single?
Why should JWs start listening to demonic talk? If they want a bunch of nuns and priests why not simply go Catholic?
Could you just imagine Jesus Paul Peter James etc saying STUPID stuff like this?
