  We owe our children honesty, integrity, and the TTATT.

  by Fognomore in

  2. child-abuse

  in my waking up i have come to a very emotional and costly conclusion.

  i have been waking up for about 2 years.

  the greatest gift we ( i ) can give our children is honesty and ttatt.

  Did Ray Franz Help You To Get Out of “The Truth”?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i sneakily read his books at work.

  it was written in such a way that no one could accuse him of being another bitter old apostate.. once it registered in my brain, especially after reading the second book, i knew i had to get out!.

  I didn't read the book until I had already stopped going to the meetings. It certainly was a "wizard of Oz" type of awakening for me. It removed any niggling doubt about my decision never to return.

  It's My Birthday Today

  2. experiences

  today is my 34th birthday.

  or, my 3rd birthday that i've actually acknowledged seeing as i was raised in the cult.. i woke up this morning to my 4yo running into my room and wishing me a "happy birthday daddy!".

  i got a card from my ex-jw brother and i bought myself a birthday gift - a new 50mm lens for my nikon camera (photography is a hobby i took up since leaving the cult).. i dont know about you guys, but birthdays is still something i have to make a conscious effort to acknowledge and enjoy.

  Critique/Rebuttal of May 2018 Watchtower study article - "Know Your Enemy"

  by doubtfull1799 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  important note: i am not a theist and this is all meaningless of course from an atheist perspective, but this critique is written from a theistic perspective for those who are interested in picking apart jw theology or are still religious.

  if this is not you, please just ignore!.

  comments, additions, corrections to my crazy ramblings all welcome.

  "some who have viewed pornography began by viewing provocative images of people in swimwear in advertisements"?????

  Hahahaha. That made me laugh out loud. What a crock of shite.

  Too bad for those of us who live near the beach. Destined to become porn addicts on account of all the scantily clad beach goers.

  Seriously who writes this garbage??

  Even as a child I used to wonder how offering magazines with articles about polar bears and insects could be regarded as life saving work. There is a no warning about the imminent demise of the world. All everyone knows about JWs is that they knock on your door at inconvenient times and refuse life saving blood transfusions.
