Only people allowed to do this is the governing body when they discuss "new light". Some of the changes they have made would be a df matter to the rest of us! UGG

What grinds my gears most about being part of a high control religion!
by UnshackleTheChains inthe one thing that annoys me most about being a jdub is the control watchtower has over everyone.
for a start, there is absolutely no liberty in christ.
there is no freedom to openly express your own thoughts on scripture.

You may PRETEND to care - in reality you are SELFISH!
by wannabefree inthat;s what my wife (and all jw's) gets to hear about us at the kingdom hall today, (hmmmm, i wonder if she'll raise her hand to answer this one) ... .
watchtower study ... today, apostates and others who create divisions in the congregation use “smooth talk and flattering speech.” (romans 16:17, 18) they may pretend to care about others, but in reality, they are selfish.. (the watchtower - study edition (simplified version) 10/17 page 4 paragraph 7).

They have to say this because we genuinely care about our loved ones still in and they know it.
The actual truth of loving a family member gets twisted to fit their horrid narrative!

So my PIMO Younger Brother Tried To Kill Himself Today
by pale.emperor inwe all know that this cult will drive those trying to leave to desperate measures, and today by brother was very nearly one of those statistics.
he slashed his thigh with a kitchen knife and was bleeding out until he called the police.. i got a call on my way home from work from a police officer, coincidentally it was one of my old friends from school who's now a cop.
he told me my brother is in hospital after an attempted suicide and has lost some blood but will be ok. but i should get to the hospital as he's asking for me.

PaleE,
First I wanted to say how much of a true brother you are!
Secondly I wanted to say love always wins.
Thirdly I wanted to say how much I appreciate you and others on this site (I don't post much but I lurk) for all the support you all provide even when we disagree!
Best wishes!

Remembered another one (I can't believe I forgot this one because it was huge back in the day)...
Single reg pioneer sister who also partook (she was mid to late 30's so that was always talked about) started hanging out a lot with a married sister. They were both df. Rumor was it was a lesbian affair.
Married sister divorced and about 10 years later it was confirmed by one of her children that she was living an openly gay life.
I don't know what happened to the reg/anointed/single sister, she moved away.
Hopefully they are both happy with whatever lifestyle they so choose!

Young pioneer brother newly wed works out in service with married older pioneer sister regularly (he early 20's she in mid 30's) caught having an affair. Neither DF'd only loss of privilages but both marriages eventually break up (his within several months). He moved away got df'd returned remarried back in. Older pioneer sister family also moved away and marriage broke up a year later.
Young brother also said innocent wife returned to normal relations, his wife claimed they didn't resume marital relations. Nothing happened to innocent wife as no evidence they did resume normal relations. They lived together for several months then divorced.

Which Things Did Your Overzealous Parents Ban?
by pale.emperor inwe all know the gb like to impose rules upon the rules... but did anyone else out there have parents that implemented rules upon those rules?
mine did.
my mum tended to copy whatever the elders wives were doing and took it to the extreme.

Having lost someone to the blood doctrine it's heart achinly ever present in my mind many many many years, that if she would have been "allowed" blood products OR even whole blood she would be with me today.
So although we have to take media at its word, most of us absolutely know what the blood doctrine has caused for many women, children and men :(.

I only joined two years ago, but I searched my city and came across cruz and big tex. I every so briefly crossed paths with her father but I totally knew of the congregation he attended and some of the folks she mentioned.
I was just dabbling in looking on the internet within the last 6 or so years when I ran across their posts. I totally wish I could offer my support for some of what I heard as rumor was going around about her father.
Oh well I hope they are well!!!
