by Freedom rocks inwhat are your views on the golden ratio or fibonacci sequence?
i know jws and some other groups use this as proof of gods existence.
i'm still looking into the debate but was wondering what others thought.

You are NOT alone !
by stuckinarut2 inthis post is mainly for our new forum visitors and members.
perhaps even those who are just lurking or visiting here but have not yet signed up.
maybe you are in the initial stages of researching and finding out the earthshattering and life changing information about the religion that you once held dear and called “the truth”.. it can be a very stressful period of time as you realise that your whole foundation has changed and that the people in your life that you call friends or family may not take kindly to the things you have discovered.

Sh*t, I don't know anyone from over there, @LOLS.
Paging all ex-JWs from South Africa!
I do know that @nonjwspouse, @Freedom rocks and @Confusedandangry are similarly facing marriages/households that are divided with a JW spouse. I believe all three women have children in the mix, too, whose upbringing are threatened by the instability of a JW husband. I'll reach out via Private Message to all three this evening to see if they have any good advice for you, hon.
Hold tight. X

The Latest Thing Waking People Up...
by pale.emperor insince i woke up and left i've been contacted by others i knew from my youth who've also left the cult.
also people around the world on facebook adding me out of the blue because we have mutual friends and they occasionally ask me stuff or share their story.. what i've noticed in the vast majority of cases, is that people are waking up not because of the arc or doctrine but apathy.
active jws are becoming less and less interested, less and less bothered.

@LOLS Oh sweetie, I am so, so sorry to hear about your family situation! It's so scary how deep the indoctrination runs and its ability to completely change someone's personality. Are you able to say which part of the world you're based in? Just trying to work out if we're anywhere close to one another so I can offer you some help or support of some sort. Are you managing okay with the kids on your own?

@doubtful1799 I third that.
When I informed my mother that I would never set a foot again in a Kingdom Hall, she told me in threatening terms that "you will lose EVERYONE. NO ONE will talk to you again if you do that."
In terms of the cult then being my entire world, she was right. But once I stepped foot out of the Watchtower stratosphere, I was suddenly overwhelmed by globular clusters, horsehead nebulas, cosmic rays and newly discovered planets. My entire universe had expanded.
Looking back, I now see the Watchtower as nothing more than a vacuous black hole, rapidly diminishing in size as the rest of the real world comes into focus. I'm so glad I found you all. Alien territory has never felt more like home.
