If you were a J.W. before July 2013..................
by The Searcher in....................then you couldn't have been "in the truth" nor was "the truth in you" until july 2013, because that month's watchtower was dedicated to reversing the following 8 "truths" and replacing them with opposing "truths".
you'd been believing and teaching falsehoods.. these are for any new members and those j.w.

The denial of 1975 when and how did they go about it.
by Crazyguy ini was pretty young in 1975, all i remember was a few complaining at the hall after and those at the door that razed us over it.
does anyone remember how they went about denying it and when this started.
i do remember a scripture in psalms about people being mighty and living longer so this was used.

The denial of 1975 when and how did they go about it.
Actually, it was sickeningly simple...
Watchtower denied it ever happened, JW`s parrot whatever the WBT$ tells them.
My own parents denied, what they spent years of their lives doing.
Preaching "Armageddon by 1975" for the WBT$.
Even more mind blowing, was when I figured out.
Millions of other JWs suddenly got WBT$ Amnesia, about the history of their own lives.

What is behind your choice of forum user name?
by stuckinarut2 injust curious how we all think.. what prompted or influenced your choice of username for this forum?.
there are some really amazing names, and it would be great to hear the stories behind them.... mine was nothing fancy.
i just felt "stuck in a rut too" along with so many others.

What made you stay "in" even when you knew it wasn't the "truth"?
by mentalclarity inso i've been thinking a lot about why i stayed a jw for so long even though i had always had doubts about the doctrines.
i was born into the religion, left and came back as an adult for another decade.
some of the things that come to mind (besides the threat of shunning-and this isn't to minimize that very real threat) was:.

There are no scandals in the WBT$/JW Cult.
Any wrongdoing is an isolated incident or never happened.
If you don`t agree, you won`t be a JW for much longer.

Not a lot, maybe 10%-15%.
Most of them are happy where they are.
The rest are institutionalised.....("Where else would we go?")
.....
Anyone who really wants to leave, leaves no matter what.

Cool old clock CoCo.
Meh...
I always get new bags where ever I shop, plastic.
At home, I have bags of plastic bags which I eventually throw out.
I`m single handly destroying parts of the planet, Kim Jong Un doesn`t eat..
