under constant watch of other jw.
being told how your life is run.
everything you do under a microscope.
Being part of a well respected jw family Gorby had no much problems. A litle bit the local jw royality.
When I woke up in 1995 because of the Generation change we lowered our activity and in 2008 we moved to another town and went under the radar. Quiet fade.
When I look back, I regret the days, hours and years that could be used better and wiser. Had some good memory's too.

i was raised as a jw and left the group as many of the teachings don’t align with my core values.
now, forward almost 10 years, my wife and i are raising our kids through puberty and i have to admit, this challenge is not easy and seems to be even more difficult in that my own upbringing was very different.
i find it hard to compare how i was raised with what i now must do for my own kids.
Same situation here. We have twins, 11 years old. How rational and smart/ wise children can be without Awake University!
My son brought up the point that everything has a start and ending and the jw standpoint of a God who was always there is absolute nonsens and wrong.
And so much more. I enjoy the arguments they have.

more bad press for the borg in australia.
this is on the webpage of the national broadcaster:.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-06-13/austraila-talks-trust-religious-figures-dropping-covid-pandemic/100202940.
Is there a drop of JW's numbers in Australia since the investigation??

the governing body is a lot like today's dems.
they want to keep the rank and file in a permanent dependent state.
keep them stupid and dependent and they can rule them forever.
They don't believe it by their self.
Just car sales man.
Puppets, real owners unknown.

i just launched a new website to talk about my books.
the website has links to all three books in the alternate history trilogy i published over the last year.
of more interest to this group there is a description of the suspense/thriller i plan to release this summer.
Good!
Gorby
i have to share.
i went to the supermarket last night and got one item.
i placed the 10 dollar bill on the item.
And so the feedback loop is taken.
Gorb

I like that kind of woman. Light skin black, high educated.

Good to hear from you all!

he seems to me to be the angriest and most ill-tempered of all the wt presidents, especially after his stint in prison and failed prophecies.. “regarding his misguided statements as to what we could expect in 1925, he [rutherford] once confessed to us at bethel, “i made an ass of myself.”” watchtower 1984 oct 1 p.24.
rutherford died at beth sarim on january 8, 1942, at the age of 72.
[220] cause of death was...carcinoma of the rectum..."[21] .
Corrupt psycho.
