Everytime I come across a JW & their circular reasoning I think of this song

To garyneal and Others, Evidence that the anointed remnants represented by the GB were selected in 1919.
by mankkeli in1st evidence: the release of loyal jews from exile, made possible by the fall of babylon, foreshadowed the release in 1919 of anointed christians from spiritual exile.
2nd evidence: that year marked the beginning of the period when the anointed remnants were released from a form of spiritual captivity to the ideas and practices of false religion.
although having rejected such false teachings as the trinity and the immortal soul, they were still tainted by babylonish practices.

Running a JW website without getting sued
by ekruks inhi guys, i want to setup a unique ex-jw/cult site, and i am wondering how you run this site without getting sued?
last thing i want is to have the stress of a court case that the jw volunteer-lawyers likely will win.
i'd like to keep a rather low profile.

Hopefully the SOPA laws don't get passed because it could affect many anti JW sites.

Nervous break down because of being a JW?
by easyreader1970 ini know it's sometimes hard to pinpoint causes of things when there could be several potential causes.
i am wondering if anyone here knows anyone (or maybe you yourself) who has had a nervous breakdown directly or indirectly because of being associated with the jehovah's witnesses.
i am not on the verge yet, i don't feel like, but then again maybe these things just snap in a person.

I attempted suicide many times as a JW. When I was finding out the truth about them I lost nights of sleep which led to a breakdown my husband had me hospitalized for.

FADERS YOUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED - BELIEVE IT OR NOT!.
by mankkeli into onthewayout, 00dad, cedars and other reknowned faders.
reports have reached patterson that faders are much more dangerous than those disfellowshipped.
their reasons for fading are no longer new to the gb.

Mankkeli are you the same troll that tried to get people to reveal their JWN names on Facebook? The same idiot who said We're watching you & you'll all be found out? Or is he a friend of yours? Did you get a free pass from your leaders to be on these websites? Seriously why waste your time here instead of pushing your literature? Can't quite cut it as a real JW preacher? Are you allowed to count your time talking to apostates?

I worry about you all, regarding the promotion of "Steven Hassan's." book. Why?
by AvocadoJake indear brothers and sisters, .
i worry about you jumping on steven hassan's ideas which are not new, in fact, after reading a good chunk of his book today, nothing he has written is fresh and new to the psychology world.
so far, i have been cautious about revealing who or what schooling and background i have.

AJ - is your concern genuinely yours or is it a result of reading Tears of Oberons blog post about Ex JW's idolizing Hassan?

New Ex-JW Documentary To Be Released
by discreetslave inabout filmtruth be told is a feature length documentary that explores the lives of several individuals raised in the jehovahs witnesses religion.
the title of the film refers to the tendency by jehovahs witnesses to regard their beliefs exclusively as the truth.. the documentary is not an indictment of religion but rather a retrospective.
in a series of informal interviews, former jehovahs witnesses discuss life experiences within the organization including the impact the religion had on their childhood and family, schooling, adolescence, and approaches to dating and marriage.

What's The Biggest Difference In Today's JWs And The Witnesses From Decades Ago?
by minimus ini believe today's witnesses lack zeal, resolve, "love" of the "truth"......just to name a few things.. years ago, witnesses were excited to knock on doors and tell people they were gonna die if they didn't accept paradise.. now, when you see jws in service, they all look zombied out.. it's a slowly dying religion that will last probably forever like an ancient rotted out tree..

Thankful for finding this site & all of you!!!
by discreetslave inat this time last year i was in another deep depression feeling alone & hopeless despite being surrounded by people who said they cared and belonging to a religion that said it could offer mankind the only real hope in life.
it's ironic that i now have more online friends than physical friendships, am no longer a part of that religion & i feel happier than i have in many years.
i'm thankful to have found this website & feeling validated.
