hi guys & gals,.
we've just released the latest jw podcast show episode where we interview an ex-bethelite.
some of his revelations at what really goes on at bethel are astounding!.
Only about 30 minutes into this one, but if I haven't mentioned it already, THIS IS HANDS DOWN MY FAVORITE PODCAST (and I listen two about half dozen different ones). I cannot recommend it more. Funny, witty, warm, informative. . . .
OUTSTANDING!
Thank you so much Jaymes and company!
so i joined very recently and began posting and commenting without a formal intro.
been reading for a while, decided it was time to jump in.
mentally i am completely cleansed of this thing, but still have to maintain a minimal involvement for spouse and family.
Welcome FREEMINDFADE!
Geez. . . what the heck is going on out there. This is like the 6th new member is the past few days!
hi all.. i have noticed that many of our forum members have sought professional help from counsellors who deal with ones like us who have broken free from high control groups or "cults".. my self esteem has been rocked by recent events in the cong, and while i know ttatt it still has taken my joy in life away quite a bit.. as you all know, mentally i broke free from the org several years ago, but now that i am trying to start making the physical break, i feel really unsettled and nervous.. i wonder if a good counsellor could assist in helping me clarify and sort my feelings and emotions , and provide help to take practical steps to cut all ties with the org?.
if anyone can provide ideas of good counsellors, it would be appreciated.. thanks everyone!.

Is this new Kingdom Hall design what I'm seeing featured on page 16 of the 2015 Yearbook?
Looks rather like a Starbucks-- how convenient would that be?

anthony morris is ranting against higher education.
he is blaming parents for enrolling their kids in college.
For all of us out there who go to universities where the local JWs have set up their "tables," this video is the perfect thing to foward on to the university administrators in charge of tabling activities.
I'm not sure that JWs are still doing tables at my uni (they were all over the place last spring, but nowhere to be found this fall). Perhaps they've already been kicked out.
However, if I see even one table at the campus this spring, an email with a link to the video and a short note explaining that JWs are an anti-education cult seeking to recruit unsuspecting students will be sent to admin.
