  Hi wannabefree,

  I raised 2 daughters myself. I have been through the drama with my oldest when the Body of Elders refused to let her be married in the KH, and I was part of the Elder Body at the time!!

  I feel your pain. The situation sucks for sure, especially with your wife being pulled way from you and more towards the Org. The only thing I can say is try to keep showing love to your dear wife and hopefully she will eventually wake up to the hypocrisy of the Org.

  At least your daughter is wise to the Org's nonsense. Hopefully your wife will wake up soon as well.

  Wow LizD! What a horrifying experience. I applaud you for coming forward and calling the police. The Org has covered this up for way too long. I can't even imagine how these crimes have affected the victims. It ends now thanks to you and the brave actions of others.

  Again, thank you and our thoughts are with you.

  Thank you both for having the courage to share your stories. This has helped many and will continue provide comfort and encouragement for many to leave this corrupt and divisive Org.

  john cedars channel posted its latest video, interviewing a former jdub who is now a filmmaker (link displayed below).. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gte6remsbe0.

  i found this one very interesting, informative and intriguing re: this young man's activism and his mission to help anyone who wants to get away from wt..

  Lloyd’s new book

  by jwfacts in

  i see there has already been discussion over lloyd’s new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.

  this includes discussion around his personality, motives and financial gains.

  i have written a foreword for this book, because it is an important topic that has not been covered in such a complete format before.

  While I'm on a roll, let's also get real about Lloyd's TRUE situation. He is still living at his wife's parents house. As an ex-elder for 25 years and having served on at least 250 Judicial Committees ( to my everlasting shame), it seems obvious to me that Lloyd's in-laws were probably never "uber" dubs. If they were, Lloyd and his wife would NOT be shacked up with them.

  His father in England is a different story, he is a genuine cult member who shuns Lloyd and that is a terrible thing. My heart goes out to Lloyd on that one.

  Also, Scott is a "poser" JW. Never baptized, not really an ex-JW in reality.

  I like a lot of Lloyd's content, but I have to call him out on his latest video when he interviewed Scott Homan. (XJW Coming Out) As I started watching I was wondering why Lloyd was showing a "hyped" level of enthusiasm for Scott's "project".

  Scott would play a "teaser" clip (which I thought was actually ok) and then Lloyd would interject almost fanatical praise, saying things like "Brilliant!". The clips were not bad, but brilliant?

  It didn't take long to understand why Lloyd was hyping a very average product- he is "collaborating" with Scott. Patron, GoFundMe, who knows what else.Give us your money so we can produce videos for you!

  What really irked me was at one point in the interview, Scott said that he needed to travel to Vietnam to edit the teasers he had just showed. How could he be expected to edit videos at his computer in Colorado? No, his computer must be at some other location in the world to do the same thing. Therefore, give us money so Scott can take trips all over the world ( something a lot of us here can't afford).

  Lloyd is starting to cross the line in my opinion.

  A book by JW

  by Catcat in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i bought a book that was published by one brother in our area.

  the title, if only, the brother didnt change his name he is, alex bogdanov, to support this brother i bought his book.

  it is fiction about couples and i didnt think nothing of it, but after reading a few chapters one of the characters is an ex jw, i don’t think this character is disfellowshipped in the book, but she is definitely not active.

  Hi Magnum,

  Excellent posts! I too was awakened by the "generation" teaching. Unfortunately not until the current "overlapping" nonsense. 35 years a Watchtower Slave for me....

  Unhappy being asked to give a Disfellowshipped Sister a ride to and from Meetings

  by Isambard Crater in

  i'm pimo, very much against disfellowshipping, and going to a meeting leaves me feeling confused and angry at the best of times.

  except an elder asked me on thursday night if i can start giving a ride to a disfellowshipped woman because she lives near me and nobody else from the hall lives in my village.

  it seems the elder and his family who have been giving this woman a ride for the past six months can no longer stomach the time it takes them to go out of their way.. i thought all normal publishers weren't to have any contact with disfellowshipped people?

  You could tell the elder that you need to talk to the Circuit Overseer to make sure this arrangement is approved by the Org........
