  ...with one foot out.. *deep breath*.

  from day one, i've felt like i was one foot out of this religion, but it took me until over a decade to reach the point where i am ready to move on.

  i'm a newly registered user to this site.

  First warm welcome, secondly if you want contentment and calm put that other foot on the side that’s OUT. Keep reading the experiences here on this site, then ask yourself if there is any god who cares he surely isn’t backing these frauds.

  Would You Ever Go Back To The Witnesses??

  by minimus in

  every once in a while you hear people say they actually “miss” their old witness friends and or family.

  some would have even stayed in the organization if they became a bit more liberal and open minded.

  I embarrassed I got sucked in to begin with, so to be fooled twice wouldn’t bode well for my intelligence. Nothing in this whole world would entice me back . To mentally torture myself with this guilt riddled religion is never going to be an option. No more cult membership from this little chook.

  are the witnesses now considered "clergy " ?

  by lancelink in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  years ago when i was a jw, one of their cornerstone teachings was that they were nothing like babylon the great.

  i remember being taught that the witnesses not using any type of clergy class distinction was proof that they had the right religion.. well, recently we had this article in the local paper, and an elder who was no doubt the presiding overseer tried to use the clergy class excuse to get out of answering questions regarding a child abuse case.

  here is the statement that really got to me.

  No Need To Preach In Every Country Anymore

  by pale.emperor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  speaking to a pimo from my hometown yesterday.

  he told me that in the watchtower study (10 nov 2019) regarding “the great tribulation” the elder on the platform said that there’s no need for jws to preach in every country in order to fulfil the prophecy, and therefore the org has already fulfilled that prophecy.

  and that there’s nothing else left to wait for now but for “the great tribulation” to come.. gasps of delight came from the audience.. has anyone else heard this?

  i know bad cops exist in many cities.

  i know some cops who aren’t “bad” but do have an attitude.

  however, i prefer to have law and order as opposed to chaos.

  1930 alcohol was illegal in US . 300 police died that year trying to enforce a drinking ban . Make anything illegal and violence will follow.
