Only a few days ago I was entirely lost and without hope the rug was pulled out from under me
by elderess inonly a few days ago i was walking around the house in a mindless wander thinking if i needed to seek professional help.
then i got the courage to seek the comfort of complete strangers on the internet and found a world of support here on this website.
thank you simon and whoever else has made this website possible.

From my own personal experience I think 20% of all JWs know TTATT but nobody wants to be the first to admit that they know. Its a game. -

Today's Daily Text - Being Uneducated And Ordinary... WTF!!!
by Divergent inthursday, march 3. they were uneducated and ordinary men.—acts 4:13.. in recent years, the spiritual instruction provided by jehovah’s organization has reflected an increased emphasis on simplicity and clarity.
consider three examples.
first, there is the simplified edition of the watchtower.

So, the Day Text says that the simplified WT is a good thing, helping people that have difficulty reading.
Instead of encouraging people to read more & become better readers, go back to school, or get a good education, they'd rather dumb down so that all who have reading difficulties can be equally crap at reading.
Nothing this org does surprises me anymore.

Sounds like the way the welfare system in America is set up to keep the minorities on the ghetto plantations.

Dumbed down people are easier to manipulate. Let's recap: no going on the internet to do your own research. No asking valid but controversial questions that might threaten the powers of the Governing Body. Discourage college for members, but encourage more time in brainless activities like building kingDUMB halls and field service. Discourage all critical thinking and private group discussions of WT doctrine. And the best is making everything that sheds light on the WT cult as being evil and from Satan. They like their sheep castrated and blind. -

It's not that easy man. Either they are not there or they are good at hiding it. I was a fader for almost 2 years and during that time I was awake, I was an MS, gave comments, did field service, manned the literature counter and all that shit. I can remember though singing my own lyrics to the songs and laughing to myself to keep my sanity. Unless you can read their mind it is tough. Peace. -

It is 5am and I still can't sleep. Contemplating life, doing research on religion, world history, science...
by Stepford Wife inmy husband is still asleep but he will get up in about an hour for work so i'm going to quickly tell you my inconclusive conclusion.
i don't know if i can believe in god anymore.
i have come to the simple conclusion that he is either dead or evil but he is definitely not loving.

I went back and read your first post. I feel your pain, for real. So many are in the same situation that you are in. I hope that brings some comfort to know you are not alone. But it sounds like you are going too fast. Slow down and take it easy. Live you life and enjoy it. I don't want you to suffer from information overload. Peace. -

Aliens exist and YHWH (Jehovah) was one of them.
by Jehovah Was An Alien in"the constellation of the seven stars forming the pleiades appears to be the crowning centre around which the known system of the planets revolve even as our suns planet obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits.
it has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling place of jehovah and the place of the highest heavens; that is the place to which the inspired writer referred to when he said: "hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven" (2 chronicles6:21) ; and that it is the place to which job referred when under inspiration he wrote: "canst thou blind the sweet influences of pleiades, or loose the bands of orion" – job 38:31"
the constellation of the pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man.

Isaiah 60:22 says, a little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten it in his time. KJV
Brothers and sisters, how encouraging it is to truly see Jehovah's blessing and hand in this matter.

I know for a fact that there are many lurkers who are elders and servants who read this and other boards but they don't have the courage to post cause they're thinking well what if I am wrong and this is Satan's way of getting me. -

Damn it feels good to be free and on my own without the pressure to do more as a JW slave
by No Longer a JW Brother ini don't know where to begin but damn it feels so good to be free of mind control.
i'm only officially out since this past december but i was out mentally for two hot years under the close watch of my batshit crazy psycho parents who bothered me every sunday to see what i thought about the meeting.
it was necessary for me to lie through my teeth.

I got that idea about using a prepaid cell from my girl who got the idea from Gilmore Girls. I called it Theocratic Warfare also cause that's what it is. If God exists I know he doesn't want people who learned TTATT to keep it to themselves. Know what I'm saying?
