i started going door to door at age 5 and was giving no.
2 talks by age 7. during the 8 years i was an active adult jw i was never a ms or elder (although i was a regular pioneer once).
so, i never qualified to give an hour talk.
Irrespective of our own beliefs, it is nice to see that some people, upon leaving the WT cult, go on to do other more constructive things which place them in a unique position to educate others on the topic of the Jehovah's Witnesses whether it is from a religious or scientific perspective.
Much more productive than just becoming bitter and knotted up with anger.
Bravo.
this is very easy to watch and completely informative.. does anybody have the talent to put one together regarding watchtowerism?.

Love the gestures!
Just like the Jehovah's.
Brilliant!
uh, i'm speechless... is this the same religion against tight pants, colored socks, df etc...?.
i think i'm in two religions... .
this video also looks very familiar, did they steal something from the apostates?
i think i've seen it all now.
nothing surprises me.

Absolutely agree with what you are all saying.
Slowly, bit by bit, they are becoming the very thing that they have been ranting against for over one hundred years.
I always said it would happen and it has because the Watchtower religion itself is a reactionary movement and as such will lose momentum as the gap between itself and it's nemisis (mainstream Christianity) narrows.
Some things are just so predictable 😄Â
Big smiley face!
my wife's parents who are pretty obsessed with the watchtower religion are going on holiday more than they are at home these days and spending money like it is something evil to be got rid of.
i have not been to a meeting in a long time but after reading the thread on hysteria by campaign of hate and the whole tv broadcasting thing i got to wondering if they really are ramping up the 'sense of urgency'.
many on here are better informed than me so i'd be interested to hear whether this is a common thing..
Okay, I get it guys. The end is as close as ever.Â
Just the same old shite but on a different day right?
I genuinely feel sorry for them.

did anyone notice this wt's subtle attack on wikipedia?
they wrote (from the 2011 yearbook of jehovah's witnesses, pp.
9-10. source: 'tracing all things with accuracy'):.
I love the bit about unidentified and unqualified people!Â
Basically the Watchtower writing department then.
Priceless!!!
i thought we needed carpenters and plumbers in paradise...oh well... the hypocrisy.

dear brothers:.
if you walked up to any jw and said "i just spoke to satan" they would think you lost your mind.
while that reaction makes perfect sense in the real world, in wt land it doesn't add up.
here's why i say this -jw's are supposed to believe the following:.
hi all.. i have noticed that many of our forum members have sought professional help from counsellors who deal with ones like us who have broken free from high control groups or "cults".. my self esteem has been rocked by recent events in the cong, and while i know ttatt it still has taken my joy in life away quite a bit.. as you all know, mentally i broke free from the org several years ago, but now that i am trying to start making the physical break, i feel really unsettled and nervous.. i wonder if a good counsellor could assist in helping me clarify and sort my feelings and emotions , and provide help to take practical steps to cut all ties with the org?.
if anyone can provide ideas of good counsellors, it would be appreciated.. thanks everyone!.
I'll have to be quick because I'm tired but I would highly recommend a course of CBT because it concentrates on the here and now with a view to moving forward rather than revisiting the past (although the past is crucial). I just couldn't believe what I dicovered about myself, the way my mind works and the reasons why I became tangled up in the Watchtower cult and indeed why people feel the need to do the things they do.Â
For me it was a revelation!
