yes, the long-awaited vaccine entered my bloodstream yesterday at 5 pm.. as steve martin humorously remarked, "good news/bad news.

good news: i just got vaccinated!

bad news: i got it because i'm 75.

The Bethelite

Good news the vaccine cures Covid... bad news the side effect is cancer.

Thoughts on JW funerals

by Syme in

i recently had the sad opportunity to attend 2 jw funerals.

the first was a few months ago and the second today.

the first was my grandfather's and the second of an old friend back from my jw days.

The Bethelite

Yes so true...some lucky JWs might get a whole 5 minutes of eulogy...but not usually.

Only 5 minutes for their 80 years of life on this planet... how sad.

But the vast majority get only a minute or two and then its "let me tell you about what Bob really believed in, as a Jehovah's Witness" Their segue into to propaganda.

We all know the individual means nothing in the organization. That is one of the first things they teach you at Bethel.

P.S. You know the speaker gets to "count his time"

Day after day writing the same "come to Jesus" message everyday. Who knows maybe like Jack Nicholson in "The Shinning" the letters will turn into "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy!"

If The Jehovah's Witnesses Stole Your Past...Don't Let Them Steal Your Future!

yes, many here have lost many years of life due to being infected by this cult like religion.

for many it is very hard to let go of that life and those wasted years.. of course people need time to heal and this web site is a great place to do that, swap war stories and commiserate.. i was in for over 50 years.

so of course it will be with me for the rest of my life.

I was in for over 50 years. So of course it will be with me for the rest of my life. My son was in for 21 years and we both left it 19 years ago.

However like thousands of other people my son can't let it go. Each day is consumed with what "the Witnesses did to him." All the missed opportunities, education, school sports, childhood friends... this has been going on for 19 years.

So in essence the church stole his first 21 years and his last 19 years also.

So how many more years will they steal from him and others?

I told him he needs to make peace with this, so he can still enjoy his future.

So please my friends don't let the Watchtower Bible & Truck Society steal any more of your future.

Unraveling threads which expose WatchTower

by Terry in

cults are famous for controlling information about people, places and events which are embarrassing to their self-myths.in my experience from the beginning of my personal contact with jehovah's witnesses - i knew next to nothing at all.

i was in elementary school in the 6th grade, age 12. a school chum who was a jw befriended me and the indoctrination began straightaway!it took all of 6 years of studying and attending meetings before i agreed to be baptized on a date very easy to remember: it was november 23, 1963 - the day after president john f. kennedy was murdered a few miles away in dallas.

(during the convention i attended - not a single mention of assassination or kennedy or his family was spoken.

The bird that had options to leave, but chose to be mentally enslaved

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

the watchtower—study edition | august 1, 2001. make your advancement manifest.

8 first, since “oneness” is to be observed, a mature christian must be in unity and full harmony with fellow believers as far as faith and knowledge are concerned.

he does not advocate or insist on personal opinions or harbor private ideas when it comes to bible understanding.

The Bethelite

Yes please keep drinking the Kool-Aid.....it wont be long now!

Smokin' Phizzy !

by Phizzy in

as a jw teenager in the 60's i took up smoking.

i gave up in my early 20's when my new wife and i decided , mistakenly, that it was a good idea to " make a proper go of da troof".

in all the intervening decades i still enjoyed the smell of a fine cigar.. when i left and became free, i took up smoking again, always fine cigars, and ended up hooked, and smoking ten or more a day.

The Bethelite

Well joe I'm afraid 3 of the 4 things you mentioned can be a lot of fun.
