Lol! Wait, so brothers buy cigars and just bite them? Hahaha maybe they also put scotch in their mouth but don't swallow it...just spit it back into the cup. Maybe they gamble with play money from the monopoly board game. Maybe they look at censored porn or accept only blood fractions! hahahahaha....oh wait.

I don't remember them saying it was supposed to be 4 hours, but I rarely paid attention at the hall. At first, me and my family just used it to watch t.v or do nothing related to the WT. But then my dad started feeling guilty because he is the head of the family and an elder himself. Not only were we using that time to ourselves, but we also as a family did not have a family study arranged. So as you can imagine, the guilt started taking over my dad. He then forced us to do our family study by going over the watchtower mag for next sunday. We did this every thursday night for an hour or two. My dad then felt happy and like a responsible head of the family, while I was miserable. All I wanted to do was talk with my girlfriend on the phone or go in my room and draw (my hobby) or something. I feel sorry for the younger kids that had to endure family waste your time night.

So it's been a little over a year since I left and by now people are starting to realize I have no intention of going back. My mother-in-law has begun shunning my wife. Her and her mom used to talk on the phone more regularly back in the beginning of 2011. But since we have been going on "apostafests" with other ex JW family members, well now her mother doesn't speak to her. Her mother also told us she decided to leave websites like Facebook. Since the watchtower is coming up with information lately about the dangers of social networks and constant reminders about how the sheep are no part of this world, we figured she was just following orders. Several months later, my wife and I went on vacation with the dark side of the family: the apostate side and while we were staying at their house, we found out my mother-in-law still has a facebook. She just blocked us and told us she deleted her acoount. She's not the only one...today I learned of two others who have "unfriended" us on that site. But really, I don't care cause it's a dumb website that means nothing in the end but still, it shows how pathetic their reactions are to people who leave the cult.
Another person that is partially shunning me right now is a person that once used to be my best friend. He recently got baptized for the sole purpose of marrying a baptized girl and ever since I questioned his motives for the baptism, he has stopped talking to me. We usually talked every other week, but now it's been about two or two and a half months since we last spoke. I think he is seriously regretting inviting me to the wedding and is probably trying to think of a way to uninvite me...especially since I emailed him some history on the watchtower and some of their secrets swept under the rug along with the lies to cover them. My mother used to call once a week and now she can go almost a month without calling. She still picks up when I call though.
But I feel a steady separation and a gap that keeps growing between me and my parents and some of my friends. But it's ok cause I have my wife, her ex JW cousin and a whole family of ex JWs up in Canada that are always willing to hang out with us and listen and talk about these experiences we share in common...not to mention some friends we have made here on JWN and have already met in person. By the way, our recent stay at our Canadian family's house was a liberating, happy and just plain awesome experience! And to think, my wife and I could get disfellowshipped for such experience. We were miserable while we were in so if disfellowshipping is the price to pay for happiness, well then it's definitely worth it!

An elder dropped by 2 weeks ago with the two 607 rags (OCT & NOV WT)...
by Alfred in...and a big smile on his face... as if to say "i can finally shut you up".... rewinding a bit.... about 18 months ago, i read "gentile times reconsidered" and discovered this doctrine had more holes than swiss cheese.
but it didn't end there, i read several studies in the scriptures, the even tide by john aquila brown (not all of it) and then proceeded to write multiple letters to brooklyn, all of which were responded to by dodging simple questions such as: "if the 70 years ended in 537 and jeremiah says there would be 70 years of servitude, which babyonian king were the jews serving between 539 and 537?".
i showed all three of the society's responses to an elder in my congo (even though he received copies of these himself) and he could see that they were "canned" responses that in no way anwered my queries.

You know, my wife has been told that also, that "she thinks too much". They say it as if it's a bad thing to use your brain! They also like to say "you're too smart for your own good." They think that's an insult, but I would take that as a compliment.

It's funny to see Charles Taze Russel, Judge Rutherford, the Bible Student Movement and the Jehovah's Witnesses all mixed in this historic list of false prophets.

Weird JW Dreams
by MrFreeze ini think it's a given that most of us who have left, have had dreams about still being jw's or doing jw related things, even years after we left.
i had one of those last night.
it involved getting a hotel for the next district convention and then it skipped ahead to when i was attending.
