  Out with a bang or Fade

  by Honeybucket in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  what did you decide to do?.

  leave with a bang, trying to educate those around you before leaving?

  perhaps writing letters to others forgiving/ asking for forgiveness.. or.

  I waited for the announcement that I was no longer an elder, and never went back, stopped everything. It was still a fade as i never DA'd myself so the out with a bang doesn't apply. Having said that my wife still gets "we miss him" a lot. If they were pestering me it would be a different matter.

  Try and see it as part of your journey. The lady was helping you, but her cult mindset was there also. You have a husband who cares about you also, judging by the fact he helped with the counselling. I'm presuming he didn't report you to the elders, so there's a chance he could be open minded, even slightly.

  Don't do anything rash though, take small steps, watch what happens after each step and plan the next.

  Everyone has a need to feel they 'belong' or 'fit in' somewhere, just start being true to yourself. Instead of thinking what would 'so and so ' do, ask what you want to do.

  Be true to yourself

  Venting some rage and pain.

  my father the coboe and much loved member of the cult has ignored me and my children 17yrs and 8yrs old for much of my life and all of my kids lives.

  i hate that religion for taking my father away and i hate him for being sucked in and putting all his love, time and kindness into the org and the stupid dubs and leaving himself too tired and uninterested in us.

  my kids dont have grandparents, my mum is ok, she rings me once a month but kinda ignores my kids, just gives em $50 each a yr as a substitute for love and attention.. .

  How sad Jemba that they are losing out on so much. It reinforces the fact it is a cult, they obviuosly think they are doing the right thing, but clearly are not.

  i showed my wife the new light, it did not go over good.

  i started with all the publications and asked her three questions 1 who is the fds 2when did they start 3 when did they get appointed over "all the belongings"?

  using the recent publications she said 1 the fds is 144000 2 they started in the 1st centry 3 they were over all belongings in 1919. then i showed her the annual meeting report on the jw.org and went over each point.

  she going to look like the victim

  Looks like she is a victim, hints and seed of doubt are better than a ton of bricks.

  Over 7 million serving in love in over 109,000 congregations? Really? What kind of love?

  And how many pedophiles are there preying on the innocent whilst being protected by the GBs 'loving' rules in your united organisation?

  I thought this thread was about 'V' the series - loved that series, ended too soon

  A species of people hiding something dark inside but with a nice peaceful front promising a better future, and a fifth column trying to undermine them, very entertaining, but very farfetched don't you think

  A milestone for my Grandson, David

  by coffee_black in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  david turned 18 yesterday.

  (he is the one who walked from orlando, fl to washington, dc a little over 3 years ago on behalf of homeless children) i wrote about that on the forum back then.

  what i didn't write about is that david has grown up without a father....not because he doesn't exist, but because his father has chosen to live his life of drugs and violence.
