Did any of us ever enjoy meetings?
by stephanie61092 inthis is a legitimate question.
did any of us ever find real joy in being at the meetings?
did any of us ever finish a meeting and think "i feel so enriched"?

NO! I actually hated them. I remember saying to myself why the f*k am I here? Oh right, for my parents. The same old BS repeated month after month. How many times can you hear that we need to clean the KH or go out in service? Arrggg! It makes me angry actually especially now that I am going through the reinstatement process!!! -

Evaluating the problem of sexual abuse of children within the JW religion, why, how and for what reason
by Finkelstein inthis topic has come up many times before on this forum and others but i think its worthy to reevaluate where and how this problem exists from an analytical perspective within the jw religion.
it is obvious that the wts has been covering up situations of child sexual abuse with careless irresponsible apathy for decades toward both possible victims and potentially identified perpetrators of this socially repugnant crime.
following guidelines as written in the bible which were emulated and exploited as a self protecting guideline to protect the outward image of the organization overall in spite of known acknowledgement that pedophilia is a serious crime in most countries.

I wish I had the money to eat organic stuff. I love LOVE LOVE Whole Foods but its too expensive for me. So I just buy organic fruits that have edible skin and organic milk and organic soy. That is all I can afford.

Only a few days ago I was entirely lost and without hope the rug was pulled out from under me
by elderess inonly a few days ago i was walking around the house in a mindless wander thinking if i needed to seek professional help.
then i got the courage to seek the comfort of complete strangers on the internet and found a world of support here on this website.

JW Child Abuse Documentary
by cappytan inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulswb2avxvc.
let's set aside our differences for the moment and appreciate this excellent documentary cedars put together that should prove to be an invaluable tool in helping to expose the child abuse issues in the organization.. i was humbled to be able to help with this project on such an important subject, though my part in it was insignificant..

The WT study yesterday went on to condemn brother and sisters that might sell herbal/holistic supplements and other questionable health treatments but yet I always have to remember that Russell (the founding father of this cult) was selling "Miracle Wheat" to gullible fools back in his day and many newspapers and others called him a snake oil salesman for it. I was literally ROTFLMAO! I just kept having pictures of Russell selling this "miracle wheat" alongside WT propaganda on his trolley. Someone who is good in photoshop should make a MEME of Russell standing next to a literature cart with "Miracle Wheat" and "Tight Pants" WT propaganda. -

A great suggestion from a current Bethelite on the chopping block
by Gilbeath Haaraloth ina very close friend of mine has gotten his letter.
although he was planning to leave willingly, he told me that he can't help but feel a sense of being stabbed in the back by a bunch of self righteous traitors.
he gave tours for years, always telling the visitors "this is the best way of life, i would never change anything here and i'll never regret making this decision to come here.

Ok so Gilbeath emailed me back after I PM'd him my email (Gilbeath is a man FYI) and the idea sounds like something that might work. It is going to be fun watching the pushback from the evil and discreet slave. It might even be the topic of a whole JDub broadcast. If you want to join then PM him here first and he will send you his private email. I am on board on this and so is my BF (you rock babe!!)
