Well said Dunedain, that sums it up for me. This world needs more sobering explanations based on logic and reality in order to get rid of religious and suppressing superstition. No proof is no proof...

Media attention for JW sexual abuse problems has increased considerably. There have been three items at RTL news, one at RTL late night talk show and one at NOS news. That's five items since december 28, 2017!
Now politics is discussing it at the highest level... let's hope the victims will get their Dutch "ARC".

Thanks Anders.
My confidence in minister Sander Dekker has grown. He finally seems to understand what it is all about. I also look forward to the efforts of Nico Meijering. I think this lawyer is the best choice to assist Reclaimed Voices and the victims.

Tattoos?
by Wild_Thing inif seems to be quite fashionable nowadays for ex-jws to get a tattoo or a series of tattoos to symbolize either their time spent in the watchtower or their escape, and i kind of don't get it.
i don't understand why someone would want a constant reminder on their body of such a horrible period in their life.
on another forum, one woman shared that she was getting 25 bees tattooed all over her body to represent the 25 years she spent in the org.

Wild_Thing,
that second picture of the guy's tattood arm reminded me more of this tarot cart than of a watchtower.
Could depict both of course, but just saying...

symptoms include:.
agitation, paranoia, psychosis, and violent behaviors, seizures and bizarre movements, mostly of the lips and mouth, but also including pedaling motions with the legs or hand movements resembling playing a piano.

Yep, no room for superstition.
It would be great if all witnesses would read and considered this info. Their obsession with demons is absurd!

Redpilltwice asked:
Has anyone tried this one on active witnesses? Would be fun to hear some experiences.
I have brought the Russell quote up to JWs several times.
They gave me a deer in the headlights look and ignored it.
I guess the WT got "new light" about what "new light" is.
Thanks for sharing your experiences Ding, I appreciate it.
That Russell quote is priceless. It is more in line with the bible than all the type/anti-type and overlapping generation doctrines that clarify......... absolutely nothing.
