my soon to be ex-husband's father is the presiding overseer of the congregation and his entire family is very spiritual - including my husband's sister and her husband who serve in gilead.. to make a long story short, my husband and i used to serve in bethel but eventually left.

we moved around the nyc area where we both took on full time jobs, pursued our four year degrees, and led pretty successful lives.

i left the organization, because i was tired of gossip, etc and half of my family was disfellowshipped.

Its like your Jewish and trying to tell the Nazis you are not really bad....................They have no ears to hear you.

You should Send them...............a blessing ........................... and Let them go!...........Your bad dream is over.

Your real life is about to begin!

Having a hard time with this, what to do, what to do

by nonamegiven in

for those who don't know my story (look up past posts, i posted it) here's the cliff's notes.. i was df'd about 10 weeks ago for things other than apostacy.

i plan in being reinstated to keep communication with my family (wife and i were raised in the........tr......tru.........truth) so i am still going to the meetings.. well, for any that don't know my wife had a baby thursday woo-hoo!

anyway, the cong we are in is actually fairly loving and it's quite a shock to me since it's very different from what i have experienced for the last 30+ years.

The "Love fauset" will NOT be turned back on until you became the "Stepford" Jehovah witness again.............Then you will be loved!

Or as they say "The beatings WILL continue............ until morale improves"

My heart goes out to you my friend.

i remember when i was new in the "troof", i was walking in a mall and a jw window washer saw me, and asked, "what are you doing here"?.

yeah, he had a good reason to be at the mall, cause he was washing windows, but i had no business there.... i guess he thought that i was being seduced by material stuff.... and i was stupid enough, not to tell him, mind your own business fu**er....

Newboy talk at N.Y. Bethel............. April 1970.........I swear to God .............N.H Knorr said this in his talk to us on sex...and I Quote

"women are like cows in heat"............(there were about 30 guys there and 3 sisters)

and "The only thing I want you do with 'it' for 4 years is pee with it!"

God were to begin?

When I was at Bethel my overseer said "Gary Kennedy (my friend and one of the workers there) was going to DIE at Armageddon"

When I was out in service with a Circuit Overseer He tolded a nice lady at the door "She would DIE one day because she doesn't worship god 'in spirit and truth'"

Out of Mythic into Rational consciousness, the EX-JW Journey

by jst2laws in

i have been absent much for almost a year, reading, learning and breaking out of boxes, figuratively.

i'm hoping that sharing some thoughts and asking some questions might be fun, and maybe helpful for a few.

have you wondered how two people can look at the same information, go through the same experience as you, perhaps even be party to the same conversation yet come away with an entirely different perception?

new boy

A new world is coming (its not the one the JWs are dreaming of).................The "mythics" are leaving the monasterys

The planet is changing.........and the time is NOW!

Have you abandoned the hope of everlasting life?

by Fisherman in

do you still believe or nurture in your heart "living forever in a paradise earth" and even never having to die in "this old system"?

or do you now belive in life after death as a spirit being in heaven?

or have you abandoned the hope of everlasting life?

new boy

I believe we are ALL immortal spiritual creatures having a physical experience.

We have always been and will always be.

Its something that a loving God would never take from us.
