  Eff my JW (former) family and freinds... Eff em all

  by AZheat in

  i am sitting here writing this posting as a way of venting for all the frustration that i have been building up over the years of slavery to this beast called the wbts... i was a born in, and was denied all the normal things in life, i always felt left out as a kid, and even as a young adult.

  i was the only jw for most if not all of my school years, i was harrased, mocked, teased, and even pushed around, because i was taught to stand up for what i beleive in.

  th problem was, i didnt beleive it, i always felt there was something not right about the org.

  I am sitting here writing this posting as a way of venting for all the frustration that I have been building up over the years of slavery to this Beast called the wbts..

  I was a born in, and was denied all the normal things in life, I always felt left out as a kid, and even as a young adult. I was the only jw for most if not all of my school years, I was harrased, mocked, teased, and even pushed around, because I was taught to stand up for what I beleive in. Th problem was, I didnt beleive it, I always felt there was something not right about the org. But as a born in, you are expected, if not bullied, into beleiving outright lies year after year.

  I have since been freed from the slavery and mind control of the wbts. However my freedom has come at a cost, I at one time considered it a "great" cost, but it has since been downgraded to just a "cost". That cost being, as you all know, is the alienation of all of my freinds and family (and I use those terms very loosely). As far as my relatives and freinds that are JW's are concerned, I am dead to them. I know that Jesus would NOT approve of the treatment that those of us, who were df"d for no good reason, have been recieving.

  I have 5 fleshly brothers and sisters, many neices and nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, and even my own son who do not even care about me, they dont know, or even care if I am sick, or even deceased. My heart is torn apart by the fact that they would rather follow the BS org, who has continually lied to ALL of its followers, than to even inquire as to my well being. To all of you, and you know who you are, I have come to the decision that you are the ones that are "dead" to me. Your conditional love is as fake as the "generational overlap" propaganda.

  I have since made "real" freinds, ones that are not my freinds because of what I beleive, but because of who I am, its called unconditional love.

  It appears to me the JW's are no different than radical muslims who hate and want to kill anyone who do not share their beleifs. Instead of bombs, they use psychological explosives, that do just as much harm..

  Did he mention that the main goal was to get them to agree to an in home study of manure ?.... lol

  Sure, other religeons claim to have manure, but JW's are convinced that theirs is "pure munure" given directly to them from above.

  I wonder what new "manure" releases there will be this summer ?

  Jehovah's witness meetings are NOT BORING......

  ...i was told but they usually were as i look back.. as a lad i'd sit and look to see who the lights would fall on.

  i'd get an almond and see how long i could suck it before i chewed at it.

  i'd imagine playing rock'n'roll on the congregation's piano.. how did you get through the meetings when you were bored?.

  Davincicodebreaker.........I remember that suger cube fight, I remember there must have been atleast 20-30 kids in that basement hurling suger cubes at each other... I found a box of saltines one time, it was like finding gold man.! The bathrooms were in the basement, so it wasnt unusual to see people going down there, but I remember there was a door that separated the restrooms from the area where the assembly supplies were... I also used to go to the store accross the street during the meeting and get bubble gum cards..... Hey, remember that drunk Indian that came in and sat in the back of the hall, fell asleep and kept shouting in his sleep ??... Ahhhh, great memories of going to the kingdom hall........

  Waking Up From a 34 Year Slumber.

  by alg1052 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  july 11, 2011 will be 34 years since i was baptised as one of jw's.

  the sleeping pill i took was in the form of them providing the information that made the bible come alive with the truth and insisting that they go by the bible not adding or taking away from it.

  i had negative experiences from local brothers from time to time, however i excused them as part of being imperfect.

  Welcome alg1052... be thankful that you indeed did wake up. There are several million that will never wake up from the hypnotic trance that the wt has put them in. Some spent more than the 34 years that you did being mislead, lied to, intimidated, etc........... The books suggested are excellent reads, I have read all of them several times...

  Had the magazines left at my house today and wanted to "SCREAM" after reading this article in the May 1,2011 WT

  by StoneWall in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the article that caught my eye as i was thumbing through it was on page 18 entitled "a peaceable people defend their good name".

  this was all about the issues being addresssed in russia and how the j.w.

  's were being oppressed/repressed.. but if you look in the box to the left under "a note to the citizens of russia", you will see that they quote the scripture in luke 12:2 "there is nothing carefully concealed that will not be revealed, and secret that will not become known.".

  It says in the tract that they can visit a website www.jw-russia.org, where they can learn the entire history of JW's in Russia, how about posting a website that shows the entire history of JW's as an organization, not just in Russia ? I guess if they did that then they would have to admit to false teachings and propaganda over the decades. Wait a second, they never admit to that, what am I saying. It never happened, so dont even ask , or question it.. The Russian authorities have got it right..!! Das Vdanja..

  I just hope that she doesn't feel like she can "save" you from leaving by going to her elders about it, because we both know at that point, its all over.. Like you always used to say to me to encourage me "hang in there Bro, it will get better with time"...

  mag available here.

  setting is obviously in the "new system", i'd say quite some time after the big a. everything looks neat and clean, so it can't be just few months or even years after the big slaughter.. let me point out few things that made me laugh:.

  every effort was made to depict natural materials, but you see leather straps with metal rivets holding the picnic basket lids.

  I have that exact same shirt, got it at Macy's...lol

  I have been on the "outs" for a while now, so forgive me if I am way behind on these things, but when did they start coming out with "apostle cards" ? I seen one in the back of the July 2011 Awake.. Are kids expected to trade them ? And shouldn't they come with a slice of bubble gum ?

  well this past weekend was pretty much as predicted, the demonstrations were probably the worst i have ever seen.

  you know the ones i mentioned on a post last week where in the middle the participant has a sudden epiphany!

  here is a sampling of just a few.. .

  I can remember me and Davincicodebreaker laughing our butts off during these lame demonstrations over the years.. Its hilarious how the make things up to fit their motto, Kind of like using the word "vim" so that they can get a sentance to rhyme in the songbook...

  Did You Tend To Question The Organization Or Did You Just WANT To Believe?

  i know some who always questioned the elders, the society, and others because they were typically skeptical.. there are those who just seemed to want to believe whatever they were told.. i was more a skeptic, during my last decade.. .
