Fake panic attacks to get out of field service. Then fake depression to get out of meetings. Eventually they will figure it out and you can just Sail off into the sunset.

The length of a public talk
by Farmer Jim1 indoes anyone ever wonder the good they could have done instead of giving a public talk for 45 or 30 minutes?
i remember giving my first public talk aged 18 and even then i was thinking ' this is just me making up half truths trying to blind people with jw propaganda'.
fast forward 15 years to when i gave my final public talk and i was so close to seeding the 30 minutes with ideas that could possibly wake people up but i never had the guts.. in that 30 minutes i could have done so much real good for a person instead of spreading this awful religions dogma.

How did you deal with long prayers ? Boy if it just started to become a show I would just walk out of a meeting.
If it was before a meal , I would just start eating.

There was a time I would have care about something like this. Then a watched a million Americans die of covid . Preachers and pastors lied to get bums in the seats and dollars in the collection plate. More people believe in the power of prayer than modern medicine.
if there is a god he doesn’t care who is buggering who and he doesn’t really give two shits about us.

Former Elders Please - Disbeliever recently married to a JW
by doasthouwilt ini recently married my best friend of 32 years.
she is a life-long jw and once an active pioneer, i am a 'worldly' person through-and-through, always will be.
we married because it was the only way we could find a way of staying together while giving her a path back to her religion ultimately, which she does not want to (or cannot) let go of.

I have become downright hostile towards the Elders. I find that is the best way to keep them away from me and not minding their own business.
I say stuff like when I see them.
" Hey, what is understanding of the faithful slave this week ?".
" Did a wizard have a vision ? "
" You guys preparing for the mockery of Christ ? ".
The only power they have is what you give them. Fuck em. Don't worry about them at all.

Does praying for “all those who are in positions of authority,” include the 'deep state' and all subsequent coverup's?
by was a new boy indefinition of deep state.
: an alleged secret network of especially nonelected government officials and sometimes private entities (as in the financial services and defense industries) operating extralegally to influence and enact government policy.
the power of the deep state comes from experience, knowledge, relationships, insight, craft, special skills, traditions, and shared values.

God Has Only One Visible Organization on Earth!
by Vanderhoven7 inwhy is it important to some that god only have one visible organization to represent him on earth?
why is it important to jehovah's witnesses that people recognize their organization as such?
what makes a witness more moral or righteous or save-worthy if they accept that it is his one and only organization?

The WTS changes the hinge point of the bible from the New Testament and the birth ,life and death, resurrection of Christ to 1914 and 1919. The bible then becomes secondary to the literature. It is kind of like all those shitty Star Wars movies when it would have been better to just quit at Return of the Jedi.
Any new twist on an old favourite usually involves making it into some kind of club.

I heard my wife on zoom yesterday because the weather was just awful. The topic was " you to make yourself righteous before Jehovah ".
It is like they have literally never read a bible. It is almost laughable if it wasn't such family destroying nonsense.

The forum now consists of anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists, Jehovah witnesses apologists, fake religious theologians and general MEGA dipshittory.
That is why the forum doesn't grow. Most people don't escape a cult to want to join another.

Memory and memorization
by Terry in3.1415926535807932384626433i used to be able to go to a hundred from memory.
my son and daughter can do so.age 75 has cheated me a bit in this regard.what sort of things have you memorized (whether useful or useless)?i can recite the entire rime of the ancient mariner to this day, btw.there are many so-called tricks for remembering things that can be easily learned and i've read all or most of those books.the amusing thing about such memory is this: nobody cares!
"why do you need to memorize when you can just use your iphone?sigh...i memorized the periodic table of elements one day at work.

As someone who plays guitar and rather poorly, I have no idea how some of these heavy acts can remember there solos and licks. It is crazy to me, especially when the singer gets a teleprompter.
