Society Ditches Older Publications
by new boy init has been reported that many of the older publications are being dumped.
the watchtower bible and truck society have a long list of books, pamphlets and brochures that are no longer available either in print or in their data base on their web sight.
of course the reason is that this books have a lot of old information that is incorrect, false prophecies, flip flops and a lot of "new light" that became old light.

Plus it's been reported that many of the older publications are being mysteriously removed out of the local Kingdom hall libraries all over the world.
My question is, does anyone here have that list of publications that the society told the local elders to removed from their local Kingdom Halls?

I guess your are right, formal education doesn't really matter if you can built an organization with with millions of followers in years later.
Come to think about it, Hitler didn't have a formal education either and look at the organization he built with over 90 million followers. I guess great minds think alike.
Point well taken

So in my book I'm going to state the Russel only had a formal education through the seventh grade. I just want to be accurate.

Is The Person Who Helped You “Get Into The Truth” Still Around?
by minimus ini helped, unfortunately, many people to become baptized jws.
recently, over the last few years, i saw many of my students who were still “ in the truth “ lament that i was no longer associating or active in the faith.. i do feel bad that i did such a good job that most of them still are in the cult.. are your teachers still around or did they wise up and leave the lord’s organization?
?.

"I have been out for over 40 years, but some of the crap still remains despite efforts to purge it and replace it with the truth about what they teach."
So true Moster, in fact I would have to say very few people get rid of it completely. It's like cancer in remission. You just never know when it could pop its ugly head back up again.

This person was dis-fellow-shipped or faded away. Or maybe they just couldn't live the harsh and demanding day to day life of a Jehovah's Witness. Yet even though the are out from their influence, because of the brain washing they have experienced they still believe the Jehovah Witness story is real/true.
My father was one of these people. He had been "out" for over 30 years when he told me one day out of the blue "I believe it's the truth, I just can't live it!" At the time I was still a PIMO so I snapped back with "Well I can live it, however I don't believe it's the truth anymore!"
So of course it turned out we were both wrong. Me for living the lie and him for believing the lie.
I know of at least two people who had been out for over twenty years and went back in.
The bible has a good analogy for this. "Like the dog returning to its vomit."
To be free at last but still be stuck in the mental confines of a cult, can there be a greater hell? I think not.
So all I can say is, if you are "out" physically, yet your mind is still stuck in their world do yourself a favor.
Go to the internet and study this religion. Look into the real history of this church. Look at the real truth of this organization with all it's false prophecies, "new and old light" and the many flip flops they have made over the years. Look into the cover up of how they deal with pedophiles in their organization.
Then my friends the real truth will become painfully apparent. That this church just like thousands of others out there, is an organization that is ran by delusional men and not by a god.

Going through all the motions knowing things were just not right. Yet so afraid of the consequences of leaving the only world I knew. Your body is there, yet your heart and mind are just are not there anymore.
Back when I too was PIMO, I would just stand in the back of the kingdom hall and look around at all those people sitting there. No one seemed to have a smile on their faces. They were tired too. The years of waiting for the coming destruction so that they/we could finally be happy in the promised paradise had taken its toll. Just how long can you keep sprinting towards the goal line that they seem to keep moving into the distant future?
Yes there were very few really happy people at the Kingdom Hall. Most everyone was "Just hanging in there." We were waiting for.....pie in the sky when you die!
As they say. "Nothing stays the same."
I was the guy in the Ed Sullivan show spinning all those plates on the end of the sticks. Finally the day came and I had to step back, no longer having the strength to keep the plates going...and of course they came crashing down.
When this happened instead of despair, I felt an over whelming sense of relief. There was lost of course.
Yes to my surprise my life didn't end but of course my world had forever changed after taking the "red pill."
So the question is, when do you go from PIMO to POMO or Physically out and mentally out.
Only you can answer that question.
Yet the day will come for many when the plates will no longer spin....
Then your day of freedom will be at hand.
My heart goes out to all of you who are still in the grips of this organization. For I was there too.
