  Marriage Proposal in the Kingdom Hall

  by Listener in

  just when you think you've seen it all comes another interesting use of a kingdom hall.a young man serenades his girlfriend with a song (possibly a watchtower song) from the stage through a microphone and backed by recorded music.

  then he steps off the stage and gets down on one knee and proposes as he pulls out a ring from his coat pocket.

  the large projector screen flashes up behind them with a picture of a sapphire and diamond ring.cameras capture the joyous moment as she accepts and they lock together in a loving hug.

  Have you ever gone back to a meeting out of curiosity?

  just wondering if anyone has gone back to a meeting out of curiosity?

  (perhaps to an area far from your old khall where you know no one).

  with all the changes from 2012 onwards (videos, tv screens, new meeting format, new songs etc) it would be an odd experience to be in attendance!.

  ive just watched on youtube the b.i.t.e model of cult mind control by steve hassan.

  all 23 steps apply to the wts.

  its awful knowing i was tricked and how subtly it was done without me even knowing.

  Also it's important to note he WASNT ever a jw so the whole apostate objection doesn't apply to him or his books

  since leaving the borg i jumped both feet first into classes i've always wanted to do but was never "allowed" to.

  two of which are life drawing and photography.

  i've been studying for almost two years now and have seen more nude men and women in our classes than i care to remember.. today in the photography studio i was working in with three others (two women, one man) we were told we had a new person modelling for us.

  I did some modeling in my early 20's and the elders in my hall strongly advised against me posing nude at our local art college when i stupidly blinding asked their opinion 🙄

  Loved this story, your reasonable honest nature is refreshing! Those hypocrites couldn't handle you. Someday I will post our story, sadly there are the same undertones of unloving people pretending to be the true religion

  Welcome! I really enjoyed your story and it wasn't too long! It resonates with me on so many levels. Born in- but no friends- I hear that. The hypocrisy of what Jackson said at arc was a big deal to me too. You can't force us to believe one thing and then change it aka lie when it suits u. I was really over that. We had a foreigner in the foreign language ministry force us to do research that made us question a lot but he wasn't ex jw. He was just reasonable and not blinded by the cult. We were pioneering at the time and I was bothered that I couldn't defend the truth. Now I realize I couldn't defend it cuz it wasn't the truth. Still feels weird typing that...

  I'm not sure why the bad smell wasn't a tip off that it was inedible or not safe to eat?

  especially if they were very young when baptised?.

  So I was thinking about how I was baptized as an infant in the Catholic Church and later after that my parents found the jw cult. Then I was baptized as a teenager to officially be part of the cult. So since I was baptized 1st in the Catholic Church, wouldn't that make me still a Catholic? I seriously doubt my parents contacted the Catholic Church to ask them to remove us all from their membership- any thoughts?
