How The Governing Body's Jealous Imaginary Friend/Corporation Sock Puppet Is Really Screwing Up Their Decision Making Capacity As CEOs Of The Watchtower Corporation
by frankiespeakin inlook at the recent videos that this bunch of old out of touch with reality governing body has spent time and money(corporation assets) on.
telling the deaf how disqusting jehovah finds looking at you masterbate(clearly a sign of some sort of childish magical thinking) and the one where they throw a little tots gift toy in the garbage because jehovah(corporation's sock puppet) don't like magic, making the the poor kid feel like he will shrivel up and die of old age like adam & eve did at 900+ years old, if he don't hurry up and get rid of that cheap plastic wizzard toy that might perhaps be demonized or something.. i'm telling you guy these guys are trapped into making bad decision because of this imaginary friend.
expect much more in the way of infantile decision making from these delusional individuals.

That special feeling just seemed to have passed me by. I just never felt good enough. Maybe it's a y chromosome thing in a patriarchal religion.

I loved the idea of living forever in paradise. I loved the idea that God was going to feed the hungry, end painful illnesses, end wars and give everyone a roof over their heads. I was young and I knew nothing about the world because I was discouraged from reading and my parents had little formal education.
The elders (so my husband told me) just fought one another for power in their meetings. My husband, when he was made an elder thought they would be talking about how to help the brothers who were ill or depressed! Not at all they were too busy fighting to visit the sick and they just dismissed the brothers who were depressed as nutters.
Panthers, I pioneered for ten years and my husband pioneered for fifteen. At one point I told the CO I might have to stop because I was so ill. He got his wife to work with me in FS and encourage me to continue. I told her I was tired all the time. She said 'I'm tired, the CO is tired, we're all tired but we just have to keep going.' That was over thirty years ago Panthers, goodness knows how tired they are now waiting for that New System. You are young, you don't know what's really going on in this religion. If you care about truth then why don't you read Crisis of Conscience and see what happened in Brooklyn Bethel in the eighties? The truth can't hurt you can it?

Regional Convention Program Posted
by kneehighmiah inhttp://download.jw.org/files/media_books/b8/co-pgm14_e.pdf.
i think i will want to kill myself during the friday afternoon symposium.
it should be called "how to not enjoy life or have fun.".

Thanks Kneehigh this will have to go to the JW friend who has recently started writing to me. Everything else has failed, even mentioning Candace Conti. I will tell her I downloaded it straight from JW.Org which I have just checked it is very easy to do. Just put 2014 convention in the search box and the program comes straight up. That symposium on what must be kept in second place just blew me away, thanks.

Hi and welcome solitairelife. Yes that's why advertising agency use jingles in their tv adverts. Bet you can remember plenty of those from decades ago. Words set to music go in and stay in. All part of the cult process.

Over 7yrs as a JW and I just found out I'm not supposed to buy Girl Scout Cookies?
by Maat13 ini'm still in the matrix(the truth), but 'morpheus' and his team are valiantly working on a way to get me out.
in the meantime, everyday i am discovering so much about being a jw i never knew, like don't buy girl scout cookies, that i keep asking myself "what have i got myself into".. maat.
really lame for a first post, but i figure i should start some where.

My JW sister left JW husband
by umbertoecho inafter years of looking down on me for not being "in the truth", being told (more or less) that my daughter died because i did not have the "truth" and therefore god's approval.
my sister has, after forty years of marriage and fifty years of being in the truth....left her husband and her dis-fellowshipped son and gone to live with our other sister (who by the way is disassociated).
i am amazed at this turn of events, as i have always been led to believe that they were a fine example of how complete and spiritually protected they were as a family for being in the jw religion.

The recipes for happiness don't change just because you are a Witness--nor do the recipes for unhappiness. JW just blind themselves to reality. And suffer in their dark exclusive silence. - humbled
So true Maeve, human beings have worked out over centuries what they need and I'm not just talking about philosophers, ordinary people have found happiness on this planet. We need loving not judgemental people around us, good food, beauty, music, creativity, interesting ideas to think and talk about, etc. Man cannot live on Watchtower self-righteousness alone. It is making people mentally ill.

It must have been a brother!
by hoser ini was listening to a conversation of jws recently about how trusting they are with each other and how out in "the world" you have to be ever so careful that you don't put down your purse or wallet for a minute otherwise it will be stolen.. i entered the conversation with an experience that one of my close friends had.
(true story) he was in a public place with a wallet with significant amount of cash and bank card, credit card, id, etc.. somehow he lost or misplaced the wallet, panicked of course.
he went to the police, cancelled all his cards and thought it was gone for sure.

When I told this to the Jws they said, well the person that returned it must have been a brother.
The only way they can cope with something that contradicts their world view is to make up lies about it. Not good for your mind to live like this. Eventually people just can't find a way out of the maze of their own beliefs. Very sad.
