Again with the guilt-tripping. Sexual fantasies= bad, filthy behavior that you should confess to the elders in detail so they can masturbate, er, counsel you. Reading graphic, almost pornographic passages from the Bible that describe incest, rape, and adultery= perfectly fine because 'all scripture is inspired'.

Seems like they're coming down harder on us inactive folks than they did before. But I'm guessing that if those JW parents who kicked their inactive/DF/DA kids to the curb needed help, the GB would tell them: "Don't come to US for help! Go ask your kids who you haven't seen in 20 years because we told you to cut them out of your lives."

And yet the society has the hide to say that they never set dates, or made predictions about when the end would come!
They say that it was "over zealous ones" who jumped to wrong conclusions based on eagerness or something like that!
The society needs to own up and admit that they TAUGHT specifics about various end dates. And such teachings affected millions of lives
That's nothing but bs. We all know the faithful dubs would never DARE think anything for themselves. Using your brain is an unforgivable sin in borgland. Just a way for the GB to deflect attention from their own idiocy.

When you think about it, sending a text like that is really the coward's way. You can be as hateful as your nasty little heart desires and you don't have to look the other person in the eyes while you're sticking the knife in. At least be brave enough to look the person you're shunning in the face.

What would you like to have known about JWs before deciding whether to get baptised?
by slimboyfat inif you could go back in time and tell yourself one thing about jws would you do it?
and what would you choose to say to yourself?
do you think you could have convinced yourself not to get baptised if you chose the right thing to say?
-

Wayward
I'd tell my 14-year-old self:
"Don't get baptized because in four years you'll have learned a lot more and realize this isn't 'the truth'. You'll be desperately unhappy and looking for a way out."

JW Cart Witnessing = ONE BIG JOKE
by Black Man inwas talking to a good buddy of mine a couple days ago (we pioneered and were in bethel together and have both left the cult a few years ago), about the current cart and d. and the consensus was that it is now a complete joke.
was watching a couple witnesses last week sit at a table with their literature display.
no approaching people for conversation, no initiating stimulating dialogue with passerbys, as was encouraged when i "pioneered" back in the day.

I left before the carts existed. I've never even seen one where I'm at. Booths at street fairs, yes. But no carts. Where do the carts come from? Is there a GB-approved cart dealer the halls have to buy from? And how much do the local halls have to shell out for this wonderful privilege?

I was born on December 30, 1975. If the WT hadn't been a false prophet, the world should have ended and I should have died as an hours-old infant. But the end did NOT come and my mom converted in 1980. I was told by older 'brothers' and 'sisters' that the end was coming any time now. I wouldn't ever go to high school. I'd be lucky to finish elementary school. I started high school the same year the first Gulf War began. My congregation was buzzing with talk that here at last was the Big A we'd been promised.
Fast forward to July 15, 2016. The world is still very much here. I graduated high school 22 years ago. Both my younger sisters did too and all three of us are married. One has three girls of her own, the oldest starting high school in September. I have gray hairs, lines on my forehead, and I ache in places I didn't know I had. My mother is looking at retirement and is afraid she won't have enough resources to get by on. And the 'brothers' and 'sisters' who kept telling me none of this was ever going to happen? They all passed away many years ago. The generation who lived in hope/fear of 1975 are rapidly aging, the youngest in their early or mid-60s. It's a terrible tragic waste.

My Jahoovamom hasn't been to her convention yet. Kind of bracing myself for whatever might hit the fan. We've had a good relationship for the 15 years I've been away and I'd hate to lose that.
