the wt study for sept 7th just breeds such a spirit of paranoia!.
using old biblical references just so as to prevent anyone from using critical thinking skills and analysing the "truth".. then using incorrect, leading reasoning to paint any who "think outside of the box" of the org as "apostate".... pure manipulation!.
All I have to say are these lyrics I recently wrote about both the rise of Islamic State and my experiences of waking up to the JW Cult.
Don't trust your eyes It's an Illusion.
Come with us see what's real Don't trust your mind it's a delusion. Come with us get your seal believe in us come get your rust concede the lust no more feel believe in us or be the dust confess to us bend and kneel
so, off we went to the dc.
the public talk was "what is truth".
in it, the speaker said, "the truth can stand up to any scrutiny.
So if it will stand up to scrutiny then what is to be feared by investigating apostate books and websites? If you have the truth everything will be easily varified lies? I can't understand why the Borg would say that. It seems like they are inviting people to wake up.
i got a laugh out of this.
in the book the "the god.
questions" under the chapter "do all roads lead to heaven".
Those who question the Society become Christians. Those who question the bible become agnostic/atheist/humanists. I broke through both walls and now see reality as it really is as ugly wonderful and scary as that is.

naaaahh.
we're not a business.
they are really just begging for apostates and athiests to come in there and just rip them apart doctrinally and scientifically. they cant run away from their own store front and if you are calm and peaceful while asking the hard questions they are stuck with you.

brainwashing the people in swanky style with money provided by poor janitorial jws.
i was doing some research on the subject of beliefs and belief systems when i came across an on-line survey/test that supposedly helps you determine which religion or philosophy is most like your current beliefs.
if you're curious, you can take the quiz here: belief system selector quizafter answering the 20 questions the results were spit out!
tada!!!.
Secular Humanism 100% here
page 8 of the latest wt (insider version) has a whole page dedicated to the question whether it is appropriate to sit next to a disfellowshipped child at meetings.. not sure how to paste this in, but check jw.org.
perhaps someone can do this for me.. horrible, no words really on how pharisee like their cult grip and control has become!.
first of all, without any shame they are talking about disfellowshipped minors.
Straight up CHILD ABUSE!
so i decided to attend the meeting last.
since i haven't gone in about 2 weeks, and i leave as soon as it ends, and elder decided to corner me at the end.
lately i've been through some very depressing family issues that are non-jw related so i haven't been my best at acting like i care about the org.
Wow. I would have punched him slashed his tires and given him a good swirly in the toilet. Not really but that is what he deserves.

just its existence makes me mad though, so i don't know if i could contain my rage.
it might just be too much for me to handle.
nope it shouldn't! I'm with you!
hi y'all, this is mrs. flipper.
please share your experiences with this, or possible consequences of being outed.. this recent controversy and resulting arguments all stem from people being outed - possibly losing friends and family because most jw's will blindly follow the watchtower's rules to shun them.. among people i know and experiences read here, the grief and loss caused by this is terrible, and maybe now is a good time to put up some experiences here, and put the focus on the worst villians of all - wt policymakers..
I have flatly refused to return to the meetings for over a year now and all my family including aunts, uncles, and cousins who couldn't have given a shit what I was doing before all blew up my phone to try and get me to spill my guts. They assumed I was doing something wrong. Now I'm down to my father sending me crazy religious gushing emails every few weeks on how I need to come back to the truth before I die in the big A. My wife has stopped going to the meetings but still believes and thinks I'm wrong but she won't go without me. We live in subtle and quiet isolated misery. I can't talk to her about the Truth about the Truth because she will automatically lock herself in the bathroom and throw up and sob uncontrollably. If ever they find evidence of my apostacy and get DF'd my entire dad's side of the family will shun me and I will be dead to them. My mother's side are all xJW's from the 70's and 80's and I"ll have them at least if they will have me because I've had to shun them while I was a witness. I'f I'm Outed as Apostate I will lose my marriage and financial stability. I will loss many business connections.
This religion is pure evil underneath its thin exterior. PURE EVIL!!!!!!
