She’s actually since become a friend of mine. I did the photography for her coven.

I'm an atheist but seeing as I keep being told by evangelicals and even some former JWs that demons do indeed exist I decided to get a final answer on this and to try... and I mean really try to see if demons/jinns/spirits whatever you want to call them exist.
What I've done over the past three months should have made my home a cesspit of demonic activity. At least by JW or evangelical standard.
Here’s some of the things I’ve done:
- Burned a bible.
- Made a Ouija board and used it - nothing.
- Burned the Ouija board - nothing.
- Bought tarot cards and used them - nothing.
- Spent the night in a so-called “haunted” house - nothing.
- Hired a witch to curse my home - I lost my WiFi signal for the day but then Virgin Media informed me it was them drilling through a cable outside and I actually got £40 compensation.
- Got the witch to burn a bible.
- Got the witch to do tarot in my house while invoking any spirits at all.
- Drew a huge inverted pentacle on the floor in the spare room, lit candles between each triangle and openly summoned Satan - nothing.
- Read the Satanic bible and openly called out the names of the different names of “the devil”.
- Regularly blasphemed god (I called him some pretty terrible things).
- I collect Hindu idols.
- I used a statue of Jesus to shovel dog shit from my back yard.
- I used pages of the bible to smoke my joints.
So far nothing has happened. I really think I've given it a good go. But I've had nothing. So that's that.
Have a great day!

What we did when attending a dry JW wedding reception.
by smiddy3 inmany years ago when the wife and i were still active we attended a friends wedding reception at a top class licensed restaurant in the cbd ,we were close friends with the bride and her family .apparently the grooms parents decided it was going to be a dry reception with no alcohol to be served.. as i said we were close friends with the brides parents an elder & " elderette" and they certainly liked a drink or two or three etc.. i asked the bartender for a drink for my wife & myself and was told it was a dry session & no alcohol was to be served as the grooms father was putting the bill.. so i said to the bartender i am quite happy to pay my own way for the drinks regardless ,so i got served while everybody else had to sit through a dry session.. and these were well off people trying to make a statement .. bloody wowsers..

I remember my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary in 1993. My dads parents. They paid for the entire thing - the venue, the food and ALL the alcohol. We had the idea of taking turns working behind the bar (it was all bottles and boxes of wine).
Being JWs this should have been a good idea. What could possibly go wrong?
We ran out of booze after about 3 hours. Which meant my dad and his brothers went to the office license to buy more booze. How did we manage to get through so much?
Turned out, some "brothers" had took cases of beer and wine and put them in the boot of their cars. My dad hit the roof when he found out. My grandparents were annoyed but didn't want to "rock the boat".
That was the last time my family bought all the alcohol for a party. From then on we'd hire a venue with their own bar staff. Such a shame because we used to have great parties before this incident.

Satan deliberately put some great TV programs on meeting nights.
Aint that the truth? I remember Quantum Leap (when it was modern) was on on Tuesday nights which was the book study.
If you got to miss the meeting you could actually watch it.
Then some elders wife heard about the show (heard about it, never actually seen it) and claimed that Sam was "possessing" the persons body and it was therefore demonic. So that was the end of that show.

It’s so strange. Treating your own children as dead simply because they don’t have the same religion as you.

Just told my never-baptized brother about this. He told me that his (our) uberJW mother is taking it as a sign that "...this must be "the truth™" because Satan is turning on our ministry."
Just to clarify:
When good things happen - it's proof we have "the truth™"
When bad things happen - it's proof we have "the truth™"

Every second month Tony Morris fishes into his toilet bowl and finds some "new light" left over from his morning dump. It's then given to rank and file as "spiritual food".
But then Stephen Lett has weird dreams and writes them down with a crayon and passes this off a spiritual food too.
And as for David Splain, his comb-over is more convincing than his "adjusted understandings" about "this generation".

I was exhibiting signs of PTSD in the final years of my JW-life.
Pregnant disfellowshipped wife with OCD while being pushed to do more for the org while being scrutinized for not being on the ministry enough while having no friends and no free time.
Anxiety dissappeared when I left the cult.
And my ex-wife's OCD significantly diminished when she left.

New Light on the 144,000?
by Ding insomeone on facebook is claiming to have reliable information that the gb is about to announce new light on the 144,000 -- that it's symbolic, not literal.. one person suggested that they will retain the two-class teaching and just change the meaning of 144,000. his idea was that the change would avoid three problems with the current teaching:.
1. embarrassment over more and more partakers at the memorial when the number should be getting less and less.. 2. embarrassment over 12 symbolic 12,000s somehow equaling a literal 144,000.. 3. solving the problem of running out of "anointed" ones who are old enough to be on the gb.. thoughts?.

If it’s come via Facebook I wouldn’t pay much attention to it. Usually the juicy stuff comes via here by leaked letters or talk outlines.
However, as others have stated NOTHING would surprise me about this org. They’re gonna have to do damage control sooner or later regarding the anointed or 1914.
Stephen Lett could outright claim to be the reincarnated John The Baptist and they’d go with it.
