Lot and Abraham attended no meetings and I couldn't imagine Jesus singing hymns before his sermons. Isambard you know what you have to do, subjecting yourself to religious pain only hurt you , so run my friend.

34Really struggling to go on
by Isambard Crater inso, so much has happened in my life over the years and continues to happen, but i won't go into the details as it would take a long time.. i don't really know why, but i returned to "the truth" 15 years ago.
in 2012 when the tv broadcasting station launched, i started to develop doubts.
the australian royal commission and other scandals made me angrier, and i now don't believe most of the core teachings.. the only reason i show up at 5 or 6 meetings each month is to keep in contact with my parents and a few other family members.. but it's killing me, literally.

I often went to work at 3am before the meetings on Sunday so l was exhausted by the time the propaganda started flowing,my wife would rib me when l started snoring. Often the clap after the public talk woke me.

Jehovah's Witnesses and the Picnic Extinction
by TerryWalstrom injehovah’s witnesses and the picnic extinction.
(“those were the days, my friend, we thought they’d never end…”).
it was another world back then; another time and another place.. you had to have been there to have any sense of it--as a young, impressionable jehovah’s witness under the watchtower presidency of nathan h. knorr--social gatherings (backyard bbq’s, swimming parties) among the ‘friends’ consisted of having a great time at a get together or a picnic.

Terry you tell a fine story, your perception toward cult control is spot on, again keep writing it brings pleasure to others.

Akid48 , you have full control of your mind don't allow the propaganda any room in your awakened mind. Your doing well but you will need to read up un cult control symptoms and tread like a ninja around family. Good luck kiddo.

Where else can I go???
by UNCONDITIONAL LOVE inthose are the words of my 2nd generation born in jw mother.
my grandfather died refusing blood.
i've since come to the realization that many jws have no other opportunities or options when it comes to leaving the cult.

They will never end the door to door work , they can't end no blood because to many died for this religious ruling, disfellowshipping is a total control thing and any ruling class never gives up control

WT shooting themselves in the foot, or rather the mouth, finally

I had a Jw the other day assure me Rutherford is in heaven now ruling. I asked had he ever read any of the eye witness accounts that people who had dealings with him, of course not he on been told what WT corp told him. The average Jw will follow this Warwick chariot where ever it goes. The ruling cardinals of the GB and self appointed pope big tony , with their weekly prayer sessions asking for the next ricochete direction to guide these blind sheep. Oppostate you have very valid points but logic and truth aren't necessarily top priority for our elite ruling class.

How smart were the ancients?
by Coded Logic ingrowing up as a jw, i always thought the ancients were scientific morons who knew next to nothing.
ashamedly, i used to run around citing isaiah 40:22 as proof of the bible's 'divine authorship' because it talked about "the circle of the earth".
as though this were somehow an unknowable before spaceflight.
