  Cirencester Congregation UK: My story

  2. experiences

  dear all,.

  i have been a member here for some years although mostly in the background.

  many of you have bravely shared your own experiences and i am very grateful for that but i have never been open about my own experience.. nevertheless, i would be very grateful to those of you who would now take the time to read about my own personal journey from the jw religion and the circumstances that caused me to abandon that way of life and how i landed up where i am.

  That's terrible.

  Your father-in-law make some kind of despicable public spectacle of himself at a party that you WERE NO LONGER PRESENT AT,is consequently told to step down, and somehow this is YOUR fault?

  ...and your wife sides AGAINST you with her father?

  You've just uncovered a genetic disposition to low morals that seems to run through your wife's family

  I hope you have no children to further complicate things.

  This will be HELL to get through, but once it is done your life will be so much better. You have my best wishes. Please keep in touch.

  Blondie pointed out

  "The Vatican is protected by Swiss Guards."

  If The Watchtower takes this step, will they be called "The Iron Fist in a Velveeta Glove"?

  Welcome to the club. I think that B. W. Schulz was a friend of Richard Rawe's, but since Richard's death it has been difficult to reach him for comments.

  It certainly seems that B. W. Schulz is interested in being an unknown, and I can understand that. no one wants to become "Exhibit A" in the museum of how much the WTB&TS can mess with individuals. The Watchtower has financial resources far greater than most of us.

  My take on it is that B. W. Schulz is a pretty fair chronicaller/historian and offers material not found elsewhere.

  "Timothy White" was another reclusive historian. I was able to "crack the code" on Tim. Perhaps you'll be able to do the same with B.W.

  according to prince’s wife, mayte garcia’s new tell-all book, even though the late star identified as a jehovah’s witness, he was also quite interested in scientology in the 90s!.

  the woman who was married to the rock icon for 4 years until 2000 revealed that another celebrity tried to convert him to the controversial faith.. however, it turns out that the singer chose to step away from the religion.. according to garcia, he thought scientology was “intriguing,” but ”i don’t need somebody telling me how to believe in my god.”.

  “he was always a spiritual seeker…he was way too smart to be sucked into something just because he was vulnerable in that moment,” the wife stated.. furthermore, garcia, who is now 47 years old, revealed that prince became a jehovah’s witness as a coping mechanism following the death of their baby boy, amir.. prince’s friend, bassist larry graham was the one who introduced him to the religion that soon took over every part of his everyday life.. because of that, he changed so much his marriage with garcia was ruined.. the woman explains in the book that prince was so much into the religion that he thought god was punishing him for the type of life he used to lead and that his infant’s death was the greatest price to pay for his reckless existence up to that point.. garcia, who was a born catholic, could not see things the way her husband did, no matter how much she tried.. “i…refused to embrace the gospel according to graham.

  "Prince would keep being faithful to his religion during his drug use up until his death in 2016, at the age of 57."

  Yes, what was Simon's tread? "Even if it's not the truth, it's still the best way to live."

  Because it is SWELL.

  A "proper" understanding, based on whose hallucination?
