so the past couple of years, i’ve read several stories about jws who left the organization at an early age because they knew something wasn’t right------but they never bothered to research the religion.
there was this feeling that the watchtower was not god’s only channel.
so they left at an early age.
Here's an example of how many wake up in just one hour's time on Reddit alone. Imagine others who wake up on other sites or just wake up.
Every day approx. 4-5 new jws post asking for help and want answers why there is so many reports on child abuse in the organization.

There was this feeling that the Watchtower was not God’s only channel. So they left at an early age. Many went to College to become engineers, doctors, lawyers, psychologists, Scientists, and other higher level educated people.
They even married non-jws and raised a family.
And here comes the problem. Regardless of how educated they got, regardless of the fact that they cut off all association with Jehovah’s Witnesses, ------ they still believed Noah’s flood happen, 1914 was the beginning of the last days, demons were real and had a desire for beautiful women, --------and DON’T READ APOSTATE SITES.
And these lingering beliefs, are passed on to the children------INADVERTENTLY!
I've read many experiences where the parent left the organization but didn't get rid of the indoctrination, only to unintentionally pass the "WT Ideas" to the children. The children in turn started studying with JWs when they left the house and had their own family. And eventually the children got baptized and had no choice but to shun their parents for the rest of the parent's life. Not allowing the grandchildren to even visit grandmother because she didn't serve Jehovah.
There is no way around it, in order to free yourself completely from Watchtower indoctrination, in most cases you need help. A person needs to visit some legit exjw sites or read legit exjw books like “Gentile Times Reconsidered. A person can do it on his own but I will take longer, and the research will be harder.
Here is the latest daily experience of a lady who left 16 years ago and finally gave herself permission to look at an APOSTATE SITE.
These are her words;
I’m 16 years out. I have to work on some long overdue reprogramming......It will help me teach my daughter independent thinking when she’s older.
i thought i would post an encouraging experience i found today.
i've been seeing a lot of 70-80 year old jws waking up, and their children are posting their experience on reddit.
these are old elders, pioneers, circuit overseers who have given their everything and finally at the end of their life, are walking away.. maybe the key to waking up is that a person has to have a deep sense of right and wrong.
Here is another experience by a 75 year old jw posted on the same experience.
isettaplus19598 hours ago · edited 8 hours agoI'm 75 ,I woke up about 5 years ago after joining jws in 1963 .It was the kind GB that did it for me .they pushed us older ones onto the internet ,I knew something was wrong for years but could never quite put my finger on it .I guess I never felt relaxed and happy with the constant pressure to do more .the internet revealed all the lies and false information that we had been fed ,and the wicked child abuse cover up . My wife is still jw we have a truce .she accused me of leaving Jehovah however I told her that I had not left them but could no longer trust the GB . The biggest change was the anointed no longer being the faithfull slave but only the GB being the slave .that meant that ever since the time of pastor Russell the whole doctrine had been false !. The whole thing is now morphing into a new on line trash internet religion with no real substance .

.I got out about twenty years ago and can’t imagine still sitting there through all that!
It was a CLOSE CALL LongHairGal. Not many are smart enough to see the danger.

Assigned some crap name and wont let me be stan livedeath. Says its bad. Stuff it.
Stan, the reason they say live----death----is bad stuff is because of the type of jws that post on reddit.
They have over 56,000 jws and exjws that post there. Most of them are under 18 years of age and born into the religion. Once a young kid say age 13-14 finds out he and his family are in a CULT, and they see no way out, because of their age they see the situation as hopeless and say it's better to die than continue living.
Literally hundreds of young jws post that they are going to commit suicide because of their hopeless situation in a Cult. They have a bot that automatically screens anyone that may seem their are promoting death. The bot has no idea if your name is real or just someone promoting suicide. So to err on the side of careful, they prevent anyone who "May Seem" like they are promoting death.
I've personally have had to change user names at least 10 times in the past two years. Now I just let the bot pick my user name which is just a bunch of numbers and letters.
Anytime anyone posts something that might look like they are going to commit suicide, the bot automatically will post this which was just a few hours ago.

Maybe the key to waking up is that a person has to have a deep sense of Right and Wrong. Then with all the hypocrisy of the WT organization finally being exposed everywhere, ----a good person no matter what age, has no choice but to follow their good conscience and LEAVE. Regardless of the Cost.
as thanksgiving is just around the corner, just about all the states are implementing total lock-down with high penalties on any citizen who disobeys.
but what is the deal with texas!.

9 COVID RULES in DEMOCRATIC STATES
seeing on another post here about former jws throwing away literature.
i am curious as to the various opinions on there value.. for me i have been inactive for 3 years almost 4. i still have alot of books and of course all their bibles ever produced (except a few from the 1800s.).
in my opinion i think there are four books the jws produced that are useful:.
In my opinion I think there are four books the JWs produced that are useful
1. The Aid book.
2. The NWT 1984 REFERNCE Edition.
3. Mankind's Search for God.
4. The Kingdom Interlinear 1969/1985.
Wasn't born when these books came out. Seen them but never had any use for them. My life is awesome, and I attribute that to leaving the publishing corporation early and not getting indoctrinated with their Publications.
If their publications are so useful------WHY DID THEY GET RID OF THEM?
or..as i remember the title..circuit servants wives.
but then i left 40+ years ago.. any recollections of those females that led such an unnatural existence?.
those that i recall seemed such aloof creatures..
We had a CO by the name of Don Moore back in the 60's. Cant recall his wife's name, but when she asked me about the girl I was engaged to at the time, she asked me if I'd also checked her record card. Oh well..
LOL, what a funny world the jws live in. What man on the entire planet is first attracted to the record card of a girl.
several young jws on reddit have written the united nations asking about watchtower's involvement with the united nations.
they been seeing to many apostate sites sitting at home because of covid.
as a result, the united nations has re-posted the old letter explaining the situation on their site.
Are Jehovah's Witnesses aware that they are listed 24 times in this United Nations website?
Once they find out, ----They will spin it to be some type of prophetic type.
(Revelation 19:4) . . .And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God seated upon the throne, and said: “Amen! Praise Jah, YOU people!”
