Someone is feeling not at ease with differing opinions...
What's the matter with those passive aggressive "i won't be back" notes?
as the title says--i'm out of here for good.. the site is full of atheists, communists, 7th day adventists, creationists, believers, deceivers, receivers, football supporters,.
dodgy types, cantleave---and assorted wankers.. so no place for me--because i'm none of the above so dont fit in.
so--this is goodbye forever my friends--its been almost average knowing you.

two years ago i had a kundalini experience.
i felt energy or chi pulsate through each of my chakras, from the base of the spine to the crown of the head, then back, after that i felt like a newborn for three days.
i felt like i was reborn spiritually and god gave me a new name - indi.

i was going through my copy of steve hassan's combating cult mind control and it occurred to me that it would be great to have something like this specifically for us ex jehovah's witnesses.
while this is a great book, the examples he uses are mostly from people that were moonies, as steve is a former moonie and many people that have contacted him for help were relatives of moonies.
while cults all work basically the same, it would be nice to be have some ideas on things that are specific to jehovah's witnesses.
Very good thread and great points!
For those still in physically they may sensibly bring up something as a point a study/an interested person mentioned that you didn't know how to answer (without being too obviously "apostate (tm)" ideas) like "so and so asked about .... and as I have never heard of this I didn't know whst to respond.
i don't think this has been picked up anywhere yet.
the revised nwt released in 2013 is already out of date.
the second half of psalm 51:4 now reads "therefore, you are righteous when you speak, you are right in your judgment" in the online version where the printed version reads "so that you might prove righteous when you speak, and be right in your judgment".. fairly unimportant in itself, but i wonder what else has been changed without telling anyone..
The light is getting brighter. The bible - rewritten by the Governing Body (TM)

what i'm looking for specifically is things that are "pagan" in the sense they predate christianity (or i guess judiasm to cover the ole mosaic code), that jw's allow or do.
the ones that come to mind are below.. rings - rings seem to originate in egypt.
for wedding ceremonies it became a symbol of "ownership" in rome.. pinatas - looks like possibly it originated in china as a part of the new year and a request for luck, and catholics later turned it into a beating of temptation type thing.. anything else?.
Slimboyfat this article made my day hahahahahahahahahahahaha
cats are unclean animals. Some unclean practices indulged in by cats include coughing up furballs, licking inappropriate body areas, urinating on the floor, eating dead animals with their blood, sexual misconduct without the benefit of marriage, abuse of catnip, and stealing food from the table, just to name a few. Uncleanness is one of the “works of the flesh” condemned by the apostle Paul. The Bible clearly shows that “neither fornicators …or thieves will not inherit the Kingdom.” In addition Paul admonishes us to “quit mixing in company” with such unclean ones.
so somebody asked me what the origins of isis were and after doing some research this is what i came up with.
but as the identity of these groups really overlaps it's hard to know where one stops and another begins.
can somebody fact check me please?.
The interesting bit is that when syrian people started peaceful protests on the streets assad claimed theyd be terrorists while in reality at that stage it was ordinary syrians marching and protesting against the oppressive assad dictatorship. At the same time asad released notorious real terrorists from prisons especially sednaya prison. He created a self fullfilling prophecy. The real terrorists started to establish themselves and assad started bombing cities claiming to target terrorists. In fact he bombed cities where there never has been any isis presence. Same to russia. I dont claim that Assad created isis. Rather he instrumentalized them to appear as an alliance in counter terrorism to get international support so he could stay in power. http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_560d7db0e4b0dd85030b2368.
well, thats it folks.. my identity on here has been rumbled and reported to the elders.
someone, somehow, has figured out that im a member of this site and - rather than speak to me - has promptly reported me to the elders.
i just feel sad for my daughter.

Another idea: let's make some accounts and impersonate the JC or others in the congo. Then accuse everyone, fly in a couple of CO's and detonate a whole congregation
I love this!!! Hahaha let's detonate a whole congregation! May I impersonate the wifes sis in law who ratted u out?
they did an excellent job of the first day of convention.
imo.
i grade them a+ in shunning your dfd children.
I see a great deal in polarizing "spiritually weak ones" from the side of the GB. Just recently they brought out this brochure calling on inactive to return to Jehovah and now those same ones they are supposed to be shunned?
The GB are desperate frantically trying everything to stop the "damage" to the cult the internet does. Changing between warm and fuzzy rhetoric to full out calling out to shun inactive ones.
This reminds me of an abusive mentally ill parent swinging between lovebombing their child and next day abusing it beating and hurting it.
The GB must be put on Lithium meds
