Covid Vaccine
by sloppyjoe2 ini may be mistaken, but wasn’t there a governing body video where one of them said something along the lines of you don’t trust that the vaccines are safe do you really believe that the governing body is the faithful slave?
perhaps i imagined this but i thought something like this was said.

At our zoom assembly ( 2021/ I think ) anyway, the circuit overseer gave a talk about trusting Jehovah. He said we had to trust Jehovah and if we did, we would trust the GB. and to obey them and take the vaxx. So in other words, if you don't take the vaxx, you don't really trust God Almighty.

Jehovah's Witnesses are suing the Dutch state for discrimination
by jochie injehovah's witnesses believe it is unfair that the state only investigated their handling of abuse cases, and not other religious organizations.jehovah's witnesses have sued the dutch state for discrimination, the national government told trouw.
the reason: only their handling of sexual abuse has been scrutinized by the government, while other religious groups remained unaffected.
they find the fact that only they were the 'target' unfounded and therefore discriminatory.. the fact that a religious organization is suing the state is 'fairly unique', says special professor of law and religion paul van sasse van ijsselt.

Is AI going to change the world?
by Reasonfirst inhad lunch with a friend, whose a lecturer in the accounting dept.
of one of australia's best universities.
he told me he expects to lose his job at some point in the next 5 years, as the accounting dept, will disappear, as all accounting will be done by ai programs, so why teach it.. if his fears are correct, that means that any profession that involves the mind, may one day face the same future.

I don't remember the movie, but when I think of this A1 business, I think of "dissasemble #5" So many years since I saw the movie, but the robots decided they did not want to be dissasembled and sought to protect themselves. There seems to be some merit to the thought of Hollywood and future developements. ( that is scary since there are movies about sombies AND the CDC considers that can become a reality.)

Manners and Respectfulness
by IWant2Know ini would like to know if there are any ex's or formers who still appreciate good manners and respectfulness?
but i hope this question isn't offensive to this forum.

my take on it is if you were a polite mannerly person before leaving the JW, that is still the sort of person you are. If someone seems to be different after leaving the JW, they are likely just being their true self that they hid as a JW-but finding out they have been made a fool of for years fuels the bad behaviour/attitude. Just an opinion, but I have read enough comments on this page to discern that even when IN the org they had bad attitudes. All that being said, why should be expect goodness to come out of a bad organisation. I looked for good while inside, but I could write books about the spousal abuse, perversions, theiveries, lies, etc. Their personalities changed with the clothes they put on/ took out for meetings. So who are/were they /we really? ( so much for knowing it's the truth because of the love among themselves.)

It’s started 🤦♀️
by MissDaSilva ini already have a friend who is trying to tell me that my mental health is causing my disillusionment with the jehovah’s witnesses.
funny that a mental health therapist has told me my mental health issues are caused by being a jehovah’s witness.
i’m still not going back.

I hate the way they talk.
by Riley inwhat is with the jw cadence when they speak.
do they think they are teaching people ?
they sound like pro wrestlers doing promos or shakespearean actors.

My thinking is they talk like the listeners are small children.

Nobody else understands
by ElderBerry inif you once were fully pimi and truly believed jw doctrine to the core like i once did, when you come to the reality that it is not the truth at all it can be extremely devastating.. i think only other ex jws could ever understand.
i wasted my entire life i thought the real life was yet to come to wasted the best years knocking on doors.
now i’m so angry.. i can understand why so many top themselves when they realise it was all lies..

I wasted 50 years! I think myself an idiot for not getting out sooner. The cracks were there, I just ignored them because I knew men were imperfect. At anyrate, try not to beat yourself up or be depressed about it. Instead of woe is me for all the nonsense I have seen over the past 50 years, I am thankful to be out. Try to view it from a point of gratefulness and thankfulness and gladness not to be their slave...FEEL BETTER not bitter.

We’re getting out.
by MissDaSilva inbeen in for 20 plus years but decided to get out with my son.
can’t do this anymore.
never seen such hypocrisy and clickyness anywhere else.

MisDaSilva--the real reason to get out isn't because you can't take it anymore, but the simple truth is, it isn't the "truth" and never has been. I wish I had read the history before I wasted 50 years of my life and made bad choices because of the JWs that left me homeless for awhile. It isn't God's organization( according to the Bible, Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life-not a man made organization.)
