  What's The First "Worldly" Thing You Did When You Exited The Cult?

  by pale.emperor in

  when you finally and officially exited the cult, whether it be by disfellowshipping, disassociating or fading - what was the first things you did that are considered "worldly"?.

  for me, it was like crash landing on another planet that looked like earth but was completely different to the earth i knew.

  i wanted to learn everything that i thought i already knew.. first things i did:.

  In my teens on the way to the meeting we would pass a bar. I noticed the flashing disco lights and loud music. It looked exciting to me even though my mother said it was an evil place. I was disfellowhipped at 16 because I asked to be. At 17 I married to get away from home and then I was clubbing every Friday and Saturday night for years! Got drunk, tried a few substances like kids do, celebrated Christmas and all the holidays, had birthdays too it was wonderful :-) x

  my story (part 2)

  by Jason Melita in

  2. experiences

  a little background, both my parents are from very large families ( i have over 70 first cousins).

  so i have always felt very fortunate to have something to do with my wordly family maybe twice a year to spend a few days with my grandparents on my fathers side, who are the two most wonderful people i have known ( grandad is a devout roman catholic) grandma i honestly don't think gives a shit lol.

  as you could guess my sister and little brother blame association like this as good reasons why i never went with the organisation.

  You were very fortunate to have parents who did not shun you, I wish I had that from my parents. :-) x

  what a horror.

  instead of there being "more fish in the sea" our marriage mates came from the small and crapy witness pond.

  anyone got burned by going with mr or mrs you will have to do?

  I didn't marry one, my sister didn't either as she thought they were all "wimps". My friend married an elder who was violent to her so she commited adultery to get divorced and the JWs felt sorry for him!!!! >:-( x

  According to one JW there can only be 1 of 3 reasons why you left.

  by Bonsai in

  2. experiences

  i asked an old jw friend of mine why so many baptized individuals leave the jw religion.

  "did it ever occur to you, old friend, that maybe they know something that you don't know and have valid reasons for leaving?

  ", i asked.. his response set me back for an answer.

  After being interrogated by two elders who refused to believe I was not having a sexual relationship with anyone I never returned and because I would not attend a judicial hearing after the aggressive way they were with me. I have been disfellowshipped by them as they do not believe I am not doing in reality the things they "wet dream" about. Pass the nutcrackers I know just what to do with them!! ;-) x

  Unfortunately she will not see you as a her husband but the "Devil" who is using you to destroy her true faith. If she is not ready to listen there is no point in trying. Let go and she will see these things more for herself (hopefully) in time. :-) x

  My Conclusion After Research

  by Disassociated Lady 2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  since leaving the jws i have looked into many beliefs and have come to this conclusion.. paganism has a high regard for women, as they worship goddesses and respect the female for the ability to give birth to new life.

  christianity puts females in second place to males and blames women for male temptations which goes back to eve eating the fruit and tempting adam with it.

  they also created a devil with the appearance of the pagan god pan and built churches on pagan worship sites so that people would still go there to worship, but within a christian building.. i have come to the conclusion that paganism versus christianity is about a battle of the sexes.. the fear of demonic forces is taught by religions to deter you from straying.

  In reply to "half-banana" saying "why worship anything at all" humans seem to have an inbuilt need to worship, if not Gods they put other people on pedestals until they come tumbling down.

  None of us need a religion or organization to tell us how to worship, we know right from wrong and are all different and see things in our unique way. The important relationship is just between the almighty spirit (whatever you wish to call it) and yourself.

  No one has the right to interfere in that. As long as you are not harming anyone else and living a good life, that's all you need. :-) x

  the mandela effect seems to be at the root of all problems the watchtower publishing corporation seems to be running into recently .if you don’t know what the mandela effect is then you have been hiding under a stone for the past 2 years .it is the hottest topic in conspiracy theories at the moments with thousands of videos dedicated to this phenomenon on youtube alone.

  The insanity continues

  by FedUpJW in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as if anymore proof were needed that what used to be the religion i was baptized into has ceased to exist i was asked this insane question, when i mentioned to a jdub that someone i knew was celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary.

  are they witnesses?".

  i didn't used to really think about that insane question in the past, but now that i have woke up to ttatt it is glaringly obvious that they think there can be no chance of actually knowing and getting along with anyone outside their tiny circle of conditional friends.

  My sister has been an inactive JW for years, ran a nightclub and has never been investigated for it. she goes clubbing with other JWs and there are photos of them all drunk on social media. Some seem to get away with so much while others are scrutinized! :-/ x
