  As a now retired OB nurse, I cannot begin to articulate my level of disgust.

  RIP dad, who introduced me to this fairytail of everlastin life and paradise :(

  less than 5 hours ago my great dad fell asleep the last time :( still in a bit of a shock and sad that i will not see him again...i promised myself that once he is here no more, i will somehow make my move out of this organisation who kept us all captive believing in a fantasy of an everlasting life :( i am in a tricky situation, since raised as jw, still in, married to an active jw, and pretty sure that all in my social and family circle will turn their backs on me if i finally say goodbye to a fairytail ;(.

  Oh the irony! The elder, a car accident, and me....

  by stuckinarut2 in

  oh this is just worth sharing!.

  so , as many know, it has been two years since i have attended any meetings, conventions, etc....nothing...cold turkey.. the hassles and problems the elders threw our way were monumental....so many details i could share, but suffice it to say, we stood firm and kept our dignity and poise and reminded them of "appropriate boundaries ".

  one elder in particular has since spared no effort in ensuring that malicious gossip and slander has been spread so that witnesses have avoided us like the plague!.

  He'll hate you even more now. You have magnified his failures by proving to be the better man. :)

  My Brother Called Me Yesterday...

  by pale.emperor in

  2. experiences

  my brother isn't a witness but he was raised one like we all were.

  after 15 years living his own life he decided about a year ago to have a bible study.

  this being the case, as a non baptized witness he can still speak to me but he's getting a lot of pressure not to from elders and the rest of my family.

  You're doing great PE. He needs your love and support; it's more than he'll get from the dubs.

  Farewell

  due to unforeseen circumstances, i need to say goodbye.

  proverbs 14:16 nlt.

  i have every faith that the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will bring about needed change very soon given the continuous pressure they face.

  Memorial Services

  all jw memorial services i've been to have been similar.

  a couple of sentences about the deceased and then it's all about the religion.

  very impersonal and scripted.

  My mother's funeral talk was given by a dear friend of hers, a friend of 50 years. Despite this, it was still pretty cold...a few facts about her life and service to the org, but mostly the JW infomercial we've come to know so well. Oh, and he did find it necessary to share that my brother and I had 'turned away from Jehovah'...

  What a dickface.

  When you were fully in, did you believe that you would not die?

  by TTWSYF in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i know that it must seem silly to ask, but my brother and his family think that the big a will arrive before they die.

  i tried to explain to my brother that everyone else who has ever lived in the past has died and only jesus has [physically] rose from the dead.. it is amazing that anyone could buy that line.

  what crazy cult culture that could make people believe such nonsense?!.

  The JWs appeal to a base level of ego with their fairy tale. IMHO one would have to be a narcissist or emotionally immature to buy it. My mother was a narcissist; I was a child.

  Cindy, it's so great that you happen to be moving. I think this will be good for both of you. Love what John Free said about his wife, that the meetings made her feel bad about herself. IMHO, this is way better than playing the depression card. Meetings DO make people feel bad about themselves! Anyway, keep doing what works for you; my very best wishes for your fade and marriage.
