3 years out and 3 memorial invites in one day!
by Darkknight757 inhello everyone i just wanted to give a quick life update as it is three years since being out of the cult.
i’ll never forget missing our first memorial back in 2017 as it etched in our minds that we were never going back to watchtower.

Hello everyone I just wanted to give a quick life update as it is three years since being out of the cult. I’ll never forget missing our first Memorial back in 2017 as it etched in our minds that we were never going back to Watchtower.
These last years have been amazing especially since Izabella has been home with us. She’s almost 22 months old and she is doing amazing!!
She’s walking and saying a couple of words. What’s amazing is we will show her a toy or an item and then ask her to get it and she will. So she understands a lot more words than she can say. She’s also in school two days a week with a head start program and that is doing wonders for her development.
Can’t tell you how lucky we are to have this little one with us.
Anyways at this point in time my wife is pregnant again with a boy and he’s doing well. She’s 22 weeks along and so far he’s been keeping up. So at 36 weeks my wife will have a c-section if all goes well.
I also finally made a YouTube video of our exit. It’s quite long but if you’re interested I’ll leave the link.
If it wasn’t for this community we would not be were we are at now so I humbly thank each one of you for your input and your dedication to truth.
Oh by the way, 3 memorial invites in one day? Not sure what that was all about and on the day of??? Strange.

Hamilton Beach Flexbrew. Now I’ve only had it for a year but it’s been fantastic! It does not hold water however so it needs to be filled for each use but you control the amount of water. Also has a pot option and strong brew for each the single serve and pot coffee.

You can try a lot sell on eBay but the shipping would be killer. I’d imagine they would fit perfectly in a large dumpster somewhere. That’s what I did with mine.

Did Ray Franz Help You To Get Out of “The Truth”?
by minimus ini sneakily read his books at work.
it was written in such a way that no one could accuse him of being another bitter old apostate.. once it registered in my brain, especially after reading the second book, i knew i had to get out!.

Reading CoC helped me escape mentally without feeling the guilt. It was a blessing. Without it I may not have been able to leave with such a carefree attitude.

My father-in-law is her overseer and I had to let him and my Mother-in-law know what was going on with her because she called and said some nasty things to them recently. I guess mom wanted to do phone territory but wouldn’t meet with her congregation. She asked for some territory and he said no and she got pissed.
Anyhoo they were over recently to see the little one and they asked if mom was ok and I let them know the whole deal with her. They hardly have had contact with her since the wife and I married 20 years ago. The family dynamic is strange.
So the short answer is yes, the elders know that she’s a lying druggie. Not sure if they will do anything about it. Probably not.

Just beyond frustrated with my JW mother. She’s a prescription drug addict. She’s been that way since before I was born. She used to feed me pain drugs when I was a kid. She gave me shingles once when I was a teenager so she could get meds for herself cheap. She’s emotionally manipulative and abusive. She pretends to be a witless but swears like a sailor and keeps her high going all day with the 9 different pain killers she takes. She’s a horrible human being. She is my mother.
I cannot believe that with a blood count of 7 that she will be around for very much longer. She does everything in her power to stay as sick as possible. Sadly the family just doesn’t care anymore. We have tried countless times to get her off the drugs and she just keeps going back. So all her kids have written her off. Sure we make sure she has food and a roof over her head but that’s it. I don’t even bring my daughter over because I can’t trust her to be safe.
Anyways I had a long talk with her about the drugs and her blood count and that her only short term alternative now is a blood transfusion. But she won’t do it. She’s been “faithful for 46 years.” 🤨 Faithful my ass! Shes only doing this so we will feel sorry for her and you know what? I don’t anymore. She’s chose her drugs over her family again! She’s the reason why I won’t take pain meds. I’m deathly afraid I’ll end up like her.
Rant over. Just needed to get this off my chest.
Heres a recent pic of Izabella.

For active JW's & Faders
by The Fall Guy in(matthew 28:18) jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: “all authority has (past & present tense) been given me in heaven and on the earth.
(1 corinthians 15:27) for god “subjected (past & present tense) all things under his feet.”.
(1 timothy 6:15, 16) "he is (present tense) the king of those who rule as kings and lord of those who rule as lords, the one alone having immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see.".

I watched that video last night and just about got sick. Why can’t a kid do good because it’s the right thing to do? There shouldn’t be pressure placed upon kids to do good solely because there is a heavenly audience watching their every move!!! No wonder these kids feel depressed and guilty all the time. One simple mistake means they made a host of people disappointed in them. 😡😡😡

Today's Watchtower Study Article - 100% Double-Speak
by The Fall Guy in1) throughout the whole article jw's were being told not to believe or pass on everything they hear, but to examine the information to prove whether it was true or not.. 2) throughout the whole article jw's were being told not to listen to or look into any information or challenges which sounded negative about the org.. mind-numbed jw's will be leaving their kh's today wondering, "do i try and prove to myself and others that that what has been said is definitely a lie, (1 timothy 4:1; 1 peter 3:15;1 john 4:1) or do i totally ignore it and believe everything the org tells me is true?
" (proverbs 14:15).
cult-training in full flow..

Nothing new it seems. It’s little wonder you cannot reason with Jehovah’s Witnesses. They have “The Truth” after all.
