backstory:.
so my born-in cousin who recently left the org is looking to start an ex-jw / group instagram based in socal.
he asked me if i had any ideas for a photo that can used for the instagram page and this is what i made for him:.
MV8- the one with adam and eve leaving the garden and commenting on the sword. I noticed they are wearing animal clothes. They didnt eat meat so apparently a bear must have skinned itself out of shame for adams sin . ugg the logic of it all.
I had to many questions from a the age of 5 on.... no wonder I was thrown under the bus as often as the jws could. How dare I use logic.
just a hypothetical question.
if the society was right and armageddon came a knocking would you want to live in a society run by the org and bully elders.. would rather die at armageddon.
i would.
In the words of my deceased great uncle (not EVER a jw). He just had listened to his sisters enough to know that they were in a brainwashing cult and had no problems telling them.
"Who in the hell wants to live forever anyway"???
His sisters (jws) demonized and talked shit about him until he died of course, in which case they are holding out for the resurrection when he will have not have his late wife of 30+ years, children or grandchildren. Just a new barley recognizable body. I imagine he'd be "resurrected" and within minutes POOF he is killed again. Can I get a 'Praise the lord'!!
You guys know the drill.
do you have examples of hymns you will never hear in kingdom halls in any country.. here are a few of my favorites:.

Jws wouldn't know what hit um.
can i ask your views on taking children out on the ministry?
.
do you have any experiences you can share of things you as a child/your children/grandchildren have witnessed on the ministry that they shouldn't have?.
No. I dont feel children should be out doing field service.
Several experiences come to mind, heres one.
I was about 10 years old and I was out with our local pioneer (an elders wife) (she was a really nice lady and I probably miss that family the most) anyway,... We were assigned a rural territory, old farming community. There was this older Italian lady that invited us in, it was just the sister and I. So the Italian lady starts to tell us how happy she is we are there. She also informs us that her son is in jail. For in her words 'F&%*ing the neighbors horse' ...'again'. She said he used to do it to their own sheep but then her son decided to use the neighbors horses. She had a very thick accent and she went on and on and in great detail. The jw pioneer sisters eyes were huge. I was on the verge of shock and laughter but managed to hold it in. Then the Italian lady says that she needs a prayer over her lawn mower , that it started on its own the day before. That was it , we were out of there. I still get a goofy look on my face when I think about it.
i like to watch stand up comedy and comedy clips.
do you have favorite comedians or skits ect?

I dont know why but Nicholas Cage face on most anything always makes me laugh. couple pages ago. His face on everyone. hahahaha
so i roll up to the job site and looky there, two uber pioneer dubs dragging themselves down the sidewalk.
both ladies are in there early 60's and born in.. my heart started pumping, but i had to act.i was directly across the street from them.
i walked right to the sidewalk and said in a very loud, but not mean voice: "you can't teach overlapping generations from the bible!!
Kairos-I just kept telling them things until they packed up and left after two or three minutes.
Yep, cowards.
Id carry a recorder if you plan on this again. Wouldn't want them to turn around and report you.
You know they can report stuff like that as stalking, but not pedophilia. yuck.
They sure cannot handle anyone speaking but themselves.
Might be a good idea to have some jwfacts printed out to carry around so you can claim that you too, are carrying a message.
Stay safe.

a jury in northwestern montana awarded two women $35 million wednesday in their lawsuit against the local jehovah’s witnesses congregation and its worldwide headquarters.. .
Now we need 100 more cases like this to come forward in rapid succession, that win against the cult, break the bank!!!!
The poor wtbts cult. Rolls eyes.
there are some jws that are downright annoying!
check out the comments in the link to this article.. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bengaluru/techie-jumps-to-death-from-bengaluru-workplace/articleshow/64549735.cms.
i would love to post a comment to his comment, drawing attention to child abuse, the arc, un affiliation and much more, but i've got to sign in to comment.
Ive seen jws comment on obituaries online or other news like the article. It is so weird to read them when they say something like ' Ecl 9:5 says 'the dead are conscience of nothing'. and quote some more bible verses out of context. You can almost feel the superior attitude jump off the page. Blame, guilt, and a pat on their own back for "enlightening" the entire comment section. Rarly a mention of empathy towards the person that died.
It is annoying.
its been a minute since posting, have been trying to put this cult in my review mirror and just live life.
but you know this beast rears it's evil head.
my wife found my crisis of conscience book and out came the horns plus i guess what she is hearing at the meetings isn't helping either.
'Go bags' are a good thing although I personally call them 'If the fit hits the shan' bags.
I had these for years and rotate them out on occasion. But unlike the jws its for safety preparedness , as much as I can be. Not for Armageddon.
Besides when the aliens beam me up I want to offer them some of our earthly canned delights. LOL JK about the aliens.
