  I really like this idea. Me and better half have faded, but we like the thought of hammering a nail in. I think it shows the dubs that we are getting along without the `borg` just nicely thank you!

  When we first found this site, the posts made by Oompa helped us in so many ways. When he died, and the reasons behind it, our eyes were opened to just how much of a death cult this organisation is. The good people that have been taken away including 2 very close friends of mine.

  Because of shameful, hurtful rules made up by a few dicks in a board room!

  Me and my wife will write a disassociating letter, for all those that didnt make it out on their own terms.

  this video leaves no doubt whatsoever.

  the person who took the video got really close and the video clearly shows that the flag is behind the glass and behind the bars protecting the kingdom hall.

  here is something interesting that pertains to the action of shunning.

  the book called extreme was written by psychologists.. 1.

  " A person who is shunned while remaining physically part of the group may find it more emotionally painful than someone who has been banished".

  Elder to disfellowshipped person: " You sit there at the back while the rest of us chat and greet each other, hug each other, laugh and make plans for the weekend. And you can think about how serious that little tiny slip - up was. And watch us. And feel ashamed about being you! And when a year, maybe 2, goes by, we might let you be part of our little gang again. Only if you grovel and lick our ego's. "

  This cult needs destroying!!

  We're in Britain, so coming to end of season, lots of squashes and pumpkins, last of the tommies. The best tip we learnt a few years ago, is to get onion seed planted around September or October. Our onions the past few years have been stonkers!

  This is an older pic of our allotment, we have hens and bees. Its all good fun!

  since becoming atheist i have been paying more attention to world events and issues.

  this is giving me some worry's when i see what's going on.

  as a jw i could just dismiss stuff saying "armageddon is coming, jehovah will look after us" etc etc now of course i can't do that.

  It matters not how, where, when we are going to die. Only, that we will. It could be an illness, a random gunshot, anything. Who cares? Not you, because you'll be dead.

  Can you remember what it was like before you were born? No. Thats what I think death is like. All I want to do now with life is to leave it having been loved and having lived it.

  I dont want to be lying there on my death bed thinking "I wish i'd gone scuba diving................" beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!!

  Just legally park a big white van outside the convention with a vinyl sign on the side, and put something simple on it like.... "how many people have YOU shunned in order to show just how loving and christian you are?"

  Or, the May '94 Awake front cover reproduced on the side of the van, and next to it a picture of a cow, with the words "No you cant have blood transfusions! You must accept an early death like these brave children did! (Unless you take it one fraction at a time. Or it belongs to this cow.)"

  OMG, I’m gonna get Old and Die.

  when it finally clicked,.

  and you realized there was no 1914, there was no generation that would see the end of a wicked system, there was no paradise around the corner, .

  what went through you mind?.

  When I found out the botchtower had spun a big pile of sweaty bollocks, it was a relief that I realised I was going to die like everyone else. Me and my wife didnt do any research about the org until 8 months after we left. So we went from day to day feeling guilty and stressed because we thought we were bird food at the big A.

  You come to realise that life is not only what you make it, its also what you leave behind. I'm not a believer in any deity or god, and I personally think it a waste of time to spend life proving ones self to a god, when life can be spent helping, loving, and making a legacy with those around you. This is more real than remembering somebody 'in heaven', or 'with the angels' etc
