  Wonderful!

  Little by little, one publisher at a time, the watchtower will go into the heap of popular cults of the past

  absolutely thrilled to give you the news that my younger brother, a zealous full-time pioneer has left the witnesses!!.

  i haven't seen or spoke to him in a year.

  i'd lost all contact with him, no facebook, no mobile number, i didn't even know his address because he'd moved house.

  Great post tight pants. Good writing too. If you live near los Angeles I will buy a drink. Don't worry about my being a spy or a snitch. I could have gotten my "Evil Apostate" certification with flying colors a long time ago, but a minor technicality makes it impossible; I was never a JW.

  Do you think the general public cares about former Jehovah's witnesses?

  by Christian Gutierrez in

  i was wondering if you guys think if the general public cares about our stories or if they even care what the watchtower does to people??

  Do non JW-care? Only if they were part of a cult themselves. Otherwise, JW world is a remote place of weird people who don't celebrate Christmas or birthdays.

  Even the young guys and ladies raised in the "truth" don't care much, especially if they were never dunked in the pool.

  "Dont worry - goD will show them. Kill them all - including 50 million unborn babies (isnt that abortion?) and 150 Million babies under 1 year old."

  The logic and math don't work here.

  For 9 months we gather 50 million (unborn). You just add three more months (to complete one year) and we are supposed to believe it is possible to have an extra 100 million. That's going to be one busy quarter working at a rate six times the rate of the previous 9 months. That's a miracle

  Judge acts to limit Watchtower's influence on child.

  by Lee Elder in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a judge in the uk has ordered strict limits on a jw father's ability to let the watchtower indoctrinate his child.

  not sure if this is precedent setting, but i think the judge is spot on.

  the reasons are explained in the article.. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/06/11/jehovahs-witness-agrees-not-show-son-religious-cartoons-risk/.

  I like the decision, but surprised the judge went that far. The "freedom of religion", or in this case the freedom to indoctrinate, is being restricted for parents, and freedom from religion is more available to children. I like it!

  How do I get you to Visit my house

  by I have question in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  okay simply put i am not of your faith however my faith allows me to learn and study other people's beliefs and faith's.

  now i believe at least from what i have seen that you people are humble and respectful, when interacting with me.

  and that watchtower book thing u hand out has actually helped me in the past.... taught me that resentment only hurts me and not the person i resented, that was really needed at the time.

  "Taught me that resentment only hurts me and not the person I resented, that was really needed at the time"

  You don't need the watchtower books or their "ministers" to learn that. All you need is a working brain and some honesty with yourself. If that doesn't work get non-religious self help books. But mainly stay away from cults, which create a very appealing image to draw you in, and later abuse you and exploit you.
