by HereIgo in

hey guys, i decided to make a youtube channel a few days ago, so far i have made 2 videos sharing my experiences and plan on making more.

i have received alot of encouragement and would love you guys to check it out and also so you can put a face to my name.

much love!

Thanks for the feedback bro! I have never gone out of my way to nudge my Mom. I don't want to give her any reason to accuse me of being an apostate because I don't agree with the JW definition. However, when she has tried to bring me back to the "truth", I would bring up certain subjects that she had no interest in hearing, such as the ARC. That would pretty much end the conversation lol. But yes, it is always a rocky road.

Hi from England

by victimofdeceit in

jw
friends

recently quit being a jw because i realised that beyond armageddon i was going to be ruled by people who cover up child abuse, not telling the congregations by their letter where the money they donated in the box is going towards paying compensation for legal battles which they caused, and also i was bullied by elders and discriminated against for being homosexual, even though i am not practicing it.

it wasn't until i threatened legal action for a breach of confidence that the elders were deleted.

so through the media and my own personal experience, i realised that they were no different to corrupt businesses in the world.

Welcome brother! You are very welcome here, glad that your found your freedom, enjoy.

How much time have you ever spent on Jw.org ?

by Chook in

i'm proud to say no greater than ten minutes in my whole life.

and i'm not giving them any more.

i do look at the video posts on here with their latest bullshit but being entertained by these clowns longer than necessary is unproductive..

HereIgo

I never spent too much time on there, spent countless hours on the CD ROM library though.

"Even if this wasn't the truth, I would still stay. This is the best life to live..."

by HereIgo in

i was recently told this by a jw family member when trying to get through to them.

does this quote indicate that maybe such ones have considered that the jw's may not have the truth after all?

or is that just my wishful thinking?

Stoned at the meeting.

HereIgo

No, but seems like a great idea. Nothing wrong with some medical MJ.

Post Convention Euphoria

by Phoebe in

jw
friends

there is a plethora of convention photos on my instagram this morning.

(a lot of my jw friends have forgotten i'm on their followers list) .

smiling faces standing next to convention posters with comments like 'nope, i'm not giving up.

HereIgo

I used to feel the same after a convention. Especially when the brothers would use misleading and emotionally charged phrases toward the end of the day talks such as " friends we will meet again next year, God willing", implying that Armageddon was oh so close. That was almost a decade ago lol. JW's always get hyped after large assemblies filled their robot brains with lies and propaganda.

JW Parents and kicking out their children

by NJ501 in

is it a common practice for jw parents to kick their children out of the home, if the child doesn't want to be a jw.

(even though their not disfellowshipped they will still get kicked out for not going to meetings etc.??).

do other religions encourage kicking family members out this as well?

HereIgo

The love from a JW parent is definitely conditional, with the exception of some parents and their personalities. I have known of parents that refuse to cut off contact with their DF or inactive children. Then, of course there are the parents who will shun their kids in a second if they need to. I think it depends on their personality and how brainwashed they are,
