  I almost wished i took the blue pill....

  by 20yearfader in

  since joining this site and having my eyes opened,i find i'm now dealing with a lot of emotions that were suppressed.one being the passing of loved ones,in the org we were discouraged from showing proper emotions due to the fact that if you did you were considered weak since they the dearly departed were only sleeping.now im being bombarded with dreams of my loved ones that i,due to my brainwashing never had the emotional release that i should have had.i'm just wondering how others on this site are coping,and dealing with the fact that everything we was taught was false almost as a way to keep up under control,as we lost years and decades of time.i almost wish i keep my head and the sand and had taken the blue pill.what has helped you all deal with this ...new religion......no religion...etc.

  two agents of reality came by my house this morning.

  no, i'm not talking about jehovah's witnesses.

  those are agents of unreality in case you're unclear on the subject!

  I liked the little boy at 5:00 saying that the "Circus Overseer" was helping them out.

  some years ago a mate of mine said: 'paul, with your knowledge of the bible and my knowledge of philosophy, why don't we start a religion and make some money?'.

  he was only joking.....taking the pi$$ out of me being a jdub.. i wonder how easy it is!.

  Why not find out what model CC machine the Borg is using and get one and have it programmed to send any swipes into an account set up

  to support sites like www.jwfacts.com www.jehovahswitnessrecovery.com and this one and then just go into the DC or CA with a suit

  and see how many dollars you could get before being shut down. I would love to see that on video.

  HA, just read all of Punks last post, beat me to it. Hey Punk how about a 60-40 split?

  Any successful methods to discreetly reach out to someone who is studying?

  by sseveninches in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my father had me go with him to do a study, and the guy looked like he's a pretty smart guy, and he was asking legitimate questions that i had my own answers to, but of course i couldn't say them.. i'm wondering if anyone has successfully been able to convince/warn anyone that they're getting sucked into a cult.

  i wanted to just secretly slip him a note, but i'm always scared to do that from fear of the person throwing me under the bus.

  then i got the idea of sending him a text message from a number that can't be traced back to me.

  Awesome job Tameria!!

  Think of all the wasted years of life you saved, you probably spent less than am hour formulating some info that saved some people from getting into a cult.

  Just awesome!

  You have his address to mail a letter to.

  What about typing a letter on a computer with JWFACTS.com, youtube channels (the non crazy ones) and also a special email account that you create from Gmail that you can use specifically to interact with this person. Then you can send specific answers to some questions he might have and also it would be easiser to send links to specific youtube videos. I would also let him know that if he mentions your interaction with him to the JW that he will be warned against looking at the info provided by you. I would in that warning insert a link to Freedomofmind.com (Steve Hassans site) that shows that the number one indicator that the group is a cult is if they do not want you talking to past members that are critical of the group. I would also send a link from that site that states that Jws are on his list of cult groups.

  What's The Main Reason You Do Not Believe That The Witnesses Are The Best Religion?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  some people leave because they are fed up with the elders.

  others have personality issues.

  some have doctrinal and prophecy reasons.

  The GB prefers protecting their Brand "WTBTS" more than protecting children who have been sexually abused by members of the congregation.

  The GB was in bed with the UN at the SAME LEVEL as the Churches that they condemn for doing so that being a NGO.

  What activity or dream did you put off till the New System?

  by nochoice in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  after reading the thread about jw kids getting gifts all year and not needing christmas, i thought about how i was told there would be plenty of toys in the new system.

  i was told that on my birthday too.

  and now i started thinking about all the things i justified suffering growing up as a kid, and then a teenager, and then an adult, because it would be better in the new system.

  Have my wife get naked, glue pages of Studies of the Scriptures to her body, put a ball gag in her mouth and slap her on the behind while listening to Kingdom Melodies.

  Rub a Dub

  Seriously,..what is wrong with you?

  Do you not know how much you can get for Studies in the Scriptures on eBay these days?

  'No Announcements' - Big Mistake!

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we are only a few short months into the "no more announcements - let them read the notice board" at the meetings, and now the effects of that new directive are beginning to reveal themselves: no information being given out regarding someone's loss of a relative, no information about someone who is ill or been admitted to hospital, and definitely no information about families moving out of the area and going to other congregations!!.

  however, announcements about "special" christmas day field service must be made!!.

  the import of the apostle paul's words really seem to have gone over the "decision-makers'" heads - (galatians 6:10) really, then, as long as we have time favorable for it, let us work what is good toward all, but especially toward those related to [us] in the faith.. coupled with the removal of the weekly group book study, the detrimental consequences of eliminating fellow-feeling and closer contact with one another can only lead to one eventuality - alienating one another!.
