Thank you for this excellent post. I did not suffer sexual abuse in the cult but am extremely outraged at the way these false prophets are spinning their fake care and concern. I am imagining how unsettling it will be for an abuse victim who goes to a meeting during these articles and wasn't aware ahead of time this will be discussed. I was wondering if these mature Christian sisters will be counting their time as they comfort...( eye roll) Being remotely involved in this as a sister (gasp) seems so far from the whole wt way, this itself should be confusing to those sheep still asleep at the meeting. But as you brought up- they will be so eager to find out the gossip, what a cold dreadful place I am so happy to be free of the obligation to go to!

The manipulation in these articles is disgusting. I don't think I could sit thru these lessons at the KH. It made my blood boil just to skim read them. Those of us that know the real story of how the GB has been handling this child abuse scurge are just enraged by how boldly they are out right lying to the sheep!

Don't get me wrong- so much looking back now is cult like but why in the world go bother worldly people on their holidays??

What’s So Good About Not Being A Jehovah’s Witness At This Point In Your Life?
by minimus infor me it’s freedom!
you are not bound by an organization’s man made rules and whims.
you don’t have to account to mere men for approval.

As I watched the matrix series I meditated on if I'm better off with the red or blue pill... Well mentally I am so much better knowing the truth about the truth. The longer you are away from the cult you realize how much better you are without it- and I have never missed it-- years later. Slowly letting go of the fear obligation and guilt has been so freeing. Living every day in the present is wonderful! Cheers to all of you for being smart enough to get OUT!!

The Barbara Anderson Appreciation Thread
by Quillsky inthere are many newcomers who may see references on this website to barbara anderson but not understand the complete awesomeness of what she has done, and continues to do, in the pursuit of truth.. for those who don't know, a brief summary: barbara and her husband joe spent most of their lifetime being uber-witnesses, bringing 80 or so people into the organization and ending up at brooklyn bethel.
barbara landed up in the sacred heart of bethel, the writing department, and wrote awake!
articles.

Waking up can be a scary time
by Leopold theseconed inas a person that has recently come to terms with the reality that the truth is not really the truth .
does anyone else remember the feeling when they realized things were just not true.
it’s wierd all the years i spent preaching i never really considered what it must have felt like to have two people at your door trying to convince you that your religion of birth was a lie.

I don't know how I would cope without all the support of all my fellow POMO friends here. Even though waking up was hard, there is a indescribable joy that I now have. Life is precious and the light of day is brighter. Embrace every minute of this life. Live it now. Live it without regrets.

I enjoyed this book a lot. It was my first taste of "apostate" material. The ORg always wants us to believe apostates are unreasonable satanic crazy people. Ray could not have been more kind, gentle and reasonable in his writing style. I would have loved to meet him. Blondie that's so great you reached out!

I noticed a comment on the GO fund me page for this tragedy. The jw thinks they are comforting the mother by saying, Jehovah fortifies you in times like this. I recall being taught the delusion that Jehovah would protect us from something like this, but ever since 9-11 they have changed their tune on what type of alleged protection we can expect from Jehovah. Only spiritual, they say. Well that isn't even true, because when I started to delve into the TTATT, I fervently prayed for spiritual guidance that NEVER happened. The fact is that this mother needs physical money to hire a proper PI and does not need to hear from a
JW that Jehovah will fortify you. Sorry ppl- morning rant
