  Ex-Jehovah's Witness recounts her disfellowshipping and family estrangement in today's Huffington Post. A poignant read.

  a thoughtful read in today's huffington post.

  it reminded me of how glad i am that 1st gen and i left the cult together and worked on keeping our closest relationships alive.

  it wasn't easy.

  Trisha's story is so sad, even sadder is the fact that most of us here have similar stories.

  Not many poor religious leaders around Christianity.

  For sure, just remember that when America was down and out during the great depression JF Rutherford had the audacity to be driven around in one of his 2 V16 Cadillacs - the most expensive locally made vehicle of the era.

  The real moral of the story is that they should have stayed home!

  the symptoms of religious trauma are similar to those suffered by people who have lived in a war zone or in abusive environments.

  beyond the wound is a new online conference on religious trauma that begins sunday (jan. 15).

  including, but not limited to, jehovah's witnesses.. https://religionnews.com/2023/01/12/religious-trauma-conference-beyond-the-wound-equips-survivors-for-recovery/.

  "Anderson said the symptoms of religious trauma are similar to those suffered by people who have lived in a war zone or in abusive environments. The recovery process, however, is different. Rather than working through being triggered by a car backfire, for instance, a person healing from religious purity culture, which glorifies sexual abstinence, might adopt a new framework for understanding sex and relationships"

  Ain't that the truth.

  isn’t it about time they released the report for the service year?

  or have they stopped publishing it?

  did they released selected figures at the annual meeting as they usually do, such as the memorial attendance or record number of pioneers?

  Poor metabolic health increases your risk for heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.

  it’s all a big fat lie.

  more precisely a big low-fat, high-carbohydrate lie.. 'it took dr. paul marik 12 weeks to prove that conventional wisdom about dieting is a lie, and that was just to himself.

  he lost 35 pounds, and cured himself of type 2 diabetes.
