out of curiosity, how can one be outed by this forum? unless one confesses i would think it is all circumstantial and one could simply deny posting. dont they need actual witnesses?? those that tattle would then open themselves up to scrutiny for being here as well. doesnt make sense to me. i am all about theocratic warfare in reverse.

Great Show last night by Brian Williams on RockCenter
by dreamgolfer inbrilliant expose on scientology.
in many instances you can submit "jw" in place of their title.
however luckily the wtbts is bad, but not "as bad".

I wish my parents had been awake to see this. Sadly I think they would compartmentalize life as jw's and insist they r nothing alike and that Scientology is, of course a cult but not the org. It's that selective blindness...my parents r the only people I want to awaken because they r the only ones in my life now that consider anything the gb says is important.

All of those techniques sound familiar. My old hall had several brothers pioneering who never seemed to talk to anyone but had their time by spring by starting their time at 7am and ending at 2p, counting everything in between. 3 days a week x 7 plus the obligatory Saturday using a similar method yielding 5 hrs gives one a grand total of 26 hrs per week. Doing this means one has their time in 32-33 weeks with about 4 to 5 months to coast or take a vaca...

I am new here and need help...or just a listening ear
by Fallingaway inmy husband and i have two small children, one of which recently became an unbaptised publisher and joined the school.
my husband is an elder and firmly committed to our family and loves me deeply as i love him.
i would like to find a way for all of us to fade away as we have family in the organization that we do not want to lose.

It is so sad that a label, a mere word cast upon another person can divide families and hurt innocent people. As was brought out on another thread a while back, it's not the ACTIONS of a person but that LABEL thrust upon them without option that causes divisions. Without those words, so many families would stay intact and fewer people would suffer the unavoidable, ensuing mental anguish that is certain to happen. Jesus would have never acted in this way. Period.

all that needs to be done is post a no trespassing sign. jw's r instructed to not go to homes with these signs or they r on their own legally. even the most uber elder pioneer in my former hall skipped those houses. we took addresses to write but never went to the houses.

And it's hard to not want to sprint once you are awake. Putting the brakes on takes great will power when one is surrounded by the infuriating craziness that is the org. I am hoping her hubby starts to wake up as well.
