Its from a hushmail account, all i can tell you is it is from someone called Phineahs, there is a png attached which is a cube with an anonymous globe and the tetragramaton in the middle.
They have the head of uk bethel factory listed in the emails so whoever it is its genuine. Also a friend from another are of the country is in the list.
I use my email for work and business and I am totally opposed to the religion. I'll be gutted if it gets screwed over.

Stupid IE
once more.....
I had an email from a hush email account, it warned me to change or set up a new email account as Anonymous had bethelite email details. Sounds ridiculous right? Well amongst the other people this email was being sent to, there was a list of bethelite email addresses, some of them i know. Some of them were bethel email addresses. I know some of the other people and their emails, so i know someone has a list from somewhere.
On the off chance this is the bethel trying to rat out people on forums like this by sending altered versions, I am not going to paste it until a few other people have (to see its the same exact message). The email itself claims to be from a foreign CO and I dont believe it for one second. However, someone has accessed this email info somehow.
I have no idea what it is all about. But someone has illegally given my details out.

for me it has been a journey through these books: "crisis of conscience", "in search of christian freedom", "combatting cult mind control", "releasing the bonds", "i'm perfect you're doomed", "confessions of a teenage jesus jerk", "evolution for dummies", "the god delusion", "god is not great", and "the end of faith", along with various books about zen philosophy.. these movies have also been important: "religulous" and "worlds apart".. some books i am interested in reading next are "the spanking room", "growing up in mama's club", and "1984".
who has read these?
do you recommend them?.
The bible!
Seriously.... That Jah-hoo-ha is evil. I kept picturing an evil dictator the more i read. The false potrayal of a loving fatherly figure who would right your every wrong..... Well he must be in another bible.
Despite being a bit of an evil atheist, i have just finished a wonderful and inspirational book that happens to have a religious flavour to it. Its an inspirational read about the pursuit of your lifes dream. The book is called "The Alchemist" im sure a few of you have read it already.

since there seem to be a number of threads in this spirit, i'd like to ask how others became atheists.
for myself, i learned some things that made me understand the bible wasn't true.
i looked deeper, and it became even more unlikely.
Think of who Jehovah or God was to you, the personality, the individual.... maybe the person looking after you from over your shoulder or stood beside or before you.
Now list al his attributes, write them down. Describe the person he is and the kind of things he defends and loves, the horrid things he detestes.
Describe him as the person he is to you.
I am deadly serious, do this.
Then start at Genesis 1 and keep going all the way, all the way through.
By Psalms you realise that the two people are not the same. So where did th ideas of these two people originate?
Now its time to get out the history books, egypt, summeria and beyond.
If you follow the above advice, you will return an atheist. I am sad that this is the case too, but the truth doesnt care for what feels good....sadly.

i always wondered what's the point if they'll keep reinstating you.
jw version of a catholic confession?
peaceall paulnotsaul.
77 times remember....
if you put the dvd on your computer and go to their web site.would they put a hidden virus/torjan code.
on your computer to moniter your internet activities..
Nah, it's illegal without your permissions they would get millions of bits of data that would have to be deciphered. They are too lazy and too old school for that. Itseasier to just write an article about how evi a forum is.
just wondering who here still attends meetings, and lives the jw life?
i guess its interesting for the context of peoples comments.
also does anyone have a position such as pioneer, ms, elder etc ?.
Thanks for all being so honest,
I eventually made sure I had a new life to walk into, namely education. Leaving cost me all my friends and strained the sibling relationships. Now I could not go back at all. I am currently publishing a paper on evolution and medicine, going back having seen "behind the curtain" would drive me insane. Also I came to realise how short and precious our time is. I wasted so many years pioneering, working at bethel, building halls. I won't give them another minute of my life.
A year ago, I was frustrated to hear that elders existed here, all the while 'teaching' from the platform etc, or regular posters that still go door to door spreading what they know to be a virus. But I guess I couldn't do it, my thoughts are with you all. I promise you that life is so much easier this side of the kingdom hall fence, but for those that still have to underline that WT and listen to the drivel..... Kudos to you.

I never really imagined that I may be one of few here that has actually left, or maybe its the other way around and most have?
