Hello tony1212, you've come to the right place to meet people who have had many different perspectives on the Jehovah's Witness religion and their leading organization, the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. If you want to know details and hard facts of the religion with a very real and honest viewpoint, I highly recommend exploring the site jwfacts.com. If you simply just want opinions, create another thread on this site and start asking questions. And possibly someone in your area will want to meetup to talk. Welcome and enjoy.

Take it slow!!! You're lucky she's still listening to you and reasoning logically. But her learned firewall is on high alert. It only takes one piece of disclosing information, for it to shut the gates and turn of her rational powers. I walked the same line with my parents, unfortunately now I'm shunned and have reason to believe they hate me. I took it VERY slow with them, but it was like one day, I just gave them one thought that broke the camels back, and they stopped talking to me even before being DAed. I hope it goes well, and I have a feeling that the topic on racism might be the ticket for her. Just speculation but I think it should be your next topic.
Keep us updated please! The more techniques we learn to help de-program people, and the more often we use them to see what works, the more people we can help to wake up. Hope it goes well!

update on my boy
by Aussie Oz inmy son came to visit today, he and i are getting a lot closer since he left his jw home and thanks largely to his mother and step father alienating him big time.
he needs one of his parents to help him out at times and he can't turn to his mother.
thats sad but its her loss, and his i guess.. anyway, he recently got himself a girlfriend, a worldly girl at that.

For those still in, what makes you feel like a witness and what doesn't?
by Hermano ini've noticed when i exercise regularly i feel thin, regardless of my weight.
this led me to think about how behavior, thoughts and feelings are tied together.
so for those of you still in what activities or thoughts make you feel like a witness?

Conan, you deserve better. I hope you can break free with some of your dignity left. I did after nearly 5 years, and things are slowly getting better. Best of luck.

I've been enlightened.
by Emery inive been lurking for quite sometime and now feel the need to come and noob it up.
it's taken a lot to bring me to read anything critical of the wts.
i used to glance at these apostate sites and shutter in fear because of the obvious demonic venom that can be found :) i am still an active witness and have been in this struggle to stay both in and be removed mentally from this organization.

Hey there, Hi there, Hoe there.
Nice to see you've 'come out', on this sight that is. Take things slow, but don't stop asking questions. The answers will continue to kick your ass. And that feeling is addictive! Look forward to more of your posts.

shamus100: " There are still tribes that have not been contacted in those jungles."
How do you know there are tribes if they havent been contacted yet?
Caye Caulker is cool, really small island and really, really laid back. Placencia is great as well, some great cheap hostels and some amazing hotels. One is called the Turtle Inn, it's owned by Francis Ford Coppola, writer and director of the Godfather movies and Apcalypse Now. It's expensive though, but a quite a treat. There are some AMAZING caves near San Ignacio, ATM cave is a must do. The whole San Ignacio area is amazing, you should go there. And take the local chicken buses, they're cheap, fun and the most authentic way to see the country.
I will say though, that Belize was one of my least favorite countries in central America. But it was still great. Too many amazing places to go to, too little time.

Lurker's first post
by sseveninches inhi guys,.
i call myself a lurker, but it's really been a short time since i've known about this site...it's only been five days.
i discovered this site while doing personal research on the topics of porneia, oral sex, and mutual masturbation, and found a thread on this site about it.

Well said Siam, it breaks my heart to think about it that way, but it's true. They have put absolutely everything into thinking this religion is the undeniable truth, it's even more important than their family. Thats why most of them can't accept the fact that's it's a lie, it means that theyve been wasting their time and energies on a deception. That's enough to make a man feel like a failure.

Witnesses left five minutes ago. Vented about Nazi war criminal and Selma and Steve
by Band on the Run ini was outraged by selma and steve and the quote from a nuremberg convicted nazi theologian.
this man was a key nazi and his theology fueled national socialism.
there was no way to get in touch with the gb or writing department.
