Huh? They might be issuing a warrant for the arrest of the Governing Body? (near begin of vid 2 like was stated)
If anyone can connect me with his dealer LMK - I want some of what he's smoking.
troubled former witness calls legal department at the watchtower organization.............. dale beckman says, can the "society" be guilty of "alienation of affection?
" in my case, my family has been told it is proper to hate me and to do nothing to help me in any way - otherwise, they could be considered a sharer in my works of "unforgivable sin.
" they are told not to even greet me.

today i saw a friend that is still a hardcore jw.
she knows we're not going to meetings, but seemed pretty cool with it and was willing to have lunch with me, so i thought why not?
she mentioned something about the convention coming up in a couple of weeks, and all of the sudden i got so nostalgic and felt like maybe i wanted to go.
Sounds like you still haven't de-programmed and that you have fallen for the "love bomb". If you want to go be a JW, go be a JW. Have fun knocking on doors and attending brainwashing sessions!
Hard to feel anything for a man like this when his life's work was to do everything he could in helping to mislead millions, destroy families, and set people up for failure in life. Rot in pieces old man.
Idol worship anyone?
dear 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.
It is like that flick where people die after they have seen the movie, except that after you read the Steve Hassan cult book you are subconsciously hyponotized into the Cult of Hassan forever without knowing it. Everyone here recommending are people that have already been infected.
It's a legit conspiracy.
im a mormon now and have been one for the last 3 months.
at first i really liked it but now i am starting to have 2nd thoughts, i grew up as a jehovahs witness and was disfellowshiped at 19 i really started to look for a new church in july of this year.
i started out in a christian church which i really liked but i didnt understand the jesus as god thing/trinity.
Plus, if God does exist (might wanna research that too), I'm sure if he/she/they/it is worth loving/worshipping that he wouldn't be offended by someone investigating the best way to serve him/her/it/them.
My study after leaving the JW's made me into an Agnostic. I won't say Atheist, because I'm not 100% sure, just 99%, and I won't make the same mistake of having absolute beliefs when I've been wrong in life once already.

I agree with those that said to take your time, do some research, and feel things out. Try to take a look at things from all angles and find what works for you and what you consider to be real.
All the best to you!
...for those of you who missed it:.
ahem..... .
we are the faithful and discreet slave!
That was a stirring and most accurate rendition! I thoroughly enjoyed it.
And re "Jehovah's celestial chariot" - I remember that too! I recall my over-the-top JW sister talking about that shit, commenting on how "that chariot just moves right on ahead man and you just gotta keep with it". What a nut.
i stole the idea from a fb friend.
just like occupy wallstreet (and the spread to various cities), imagine people without a single voice picketing wt at brooklyn and having warming barrels loaded with burning watchtower literature.
if you did, what would your sign say?
Occupying Bethel sounds like a total waste of time. I sat down with and debated with multiple family members on everything from 607, the sordid history of the Bible, United Nations involvement, terrible Bible translation, the impossibility of a global flood only a few thousand years ago, etc.
No matter how factual, accurate, and logical your argument is they will still just write you off as an apostate. In fact, being more forceful about things just makes them less likely to listen.
We live in a crazy and often shitty world. IMO there's better ways to spend time than protesting to deaf ears.
I think that it's like The Force from Star Wars and just as real too.
