  This will be a GREAT organization!

  by Kensho in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when...... 1) we follow christ example not the gb.

  2) stop df'ing those for challenging current or past doctrine and allow us to use our god given gift of reason and free wil.

  sure kick out the scumbags even the lions club have rules for membership, but not those who just use their brains and consience.. 3) get rid of the nonsensical blood teaching that has cost the lives of thousands and beg god for forgiveness.

  Do you tell people?

  as an ex-jw do you tell people about your jw past?

  how much detail do you go into when you tell non-jw's about the organization.

  i usually only ever say anything if somebody asks about my religious affiliation or mentions jw's.

  I openly discuss being born, raised and brainwashed by a cult. I like to warn others to stay away. I tell people that they seem harmless and kind but how deceptive it all is.

  Where to go from here...

  2. relationships

  i'm new around here, but i've been browsing the site the last few days in hopes of finding the answer to the situation i've been going through, so hopefully you can help me.

  i met this girl in highschool, but never really spoke with her until about a year after i graduated.

  she's three years younger (however it's legal where i'm from, don't fret) and still a teenager.

  How We Come Across On The Board

  most people here have never met you.

  we converse, discuss, argue, laugh, agree, question, share our lives..... quite often, you kind of get to know what a person is like.

  some people, we tend to gravitate to and others, we shy away from.. how do you think you come across to other people?

  Pretty much what you see is what you get. I get along with most everyone I come in contact with. I usually treat people with the same respect or lack there of that they treat me with. If you are shitty to me then I return the shit. If you are nice, I will be nice.

  Congratulations!

  For me the first 12 months were the hardest. I will be 4 years sober this December. Quitting was the best thing I ever did.

  Documentary: God Loves Uganda

  by Wild_Thing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  has anyone seen the film called god loves uganda?

  i just watched it on netflix, and i highly recommend it!

  it's a recent documentary that premiered at the sundance film festival last year.. it shows how the american evangelical right wing christian groups has changed the face of uganda by sending missionaries there, setting up churches, and indoctrinating ugandans with their brand of christianity.

  I was 17 and there was a nephew of an elder that was a punk kid maybe 15 or 16. A friend and I hung out with him a few times. He was from a “worldly” relative family and was living with his uncle, the elder.

  I told the kid to “fuck off!” I don’t remember why, but I do remember never liking him. He was a shit head.

  He told on me and I ended up in the back room. They told me as a baptized witness, I had to be “exemplary”. Got my hands slapped. Wasn’t the first nor the last time in the back room. lol
