I grew up with no Christmas due to this cult, but I made my own family traditions through the years. We decorate the tree, give presents, etc. one thing we did when our daughter was small, she could open one gift Christmas Eve, it was always Christmas themed pajamas which she wore to bed that night, so in the morning, I got cute pictures of her in those PJs opening presents!

Is this something new?
by Butyoucanneverleave injust heard from a friend who keeps in touch with the jw's.
a person who has been studying found out some things on line about the witnesses and decided to not get baptized and stopped attending the meetings.
she lives with a witness.

Sounds like a subtle threat to silence anyone who “knows too much” and might share what they know with witnesses they live with or associate with. Evil cult bastards!

November 2019 Watchtower (Would love to hear the comments in the hall)
by pleaseresearch infrom the november 2019 watchtower study edition.. how many of you would like to know what the brothers and sisters would respond to this question.
also, if you went into a hall how would you like to respond to the question.. 8. how should we respond to lies?.
8 satan, “the father of the lie,” uses those under his control to spread lies about jehovah and about our brothers and sisters.

Desirous of change, it’s TRUE when applied to the Catholic Church, LIES when it’s about JWS.

The Watchtower stole from me and you too
by rickroll inthink of how much time and money the tower stole from any who were in the cult.
think of the vacations as a child you could have taken with your families the memories you could have made instead of sitting in a hot bs week of echo talks and propaganda.
they stole so much from us.

I agree, they should be sued.

Unique JW Phrases 101
by Solzhenitsyn inwhat unique to jws phrases do you remember?
something fun for those of us taught to speak an entirely unique and pure language.
there have been posts in the past in this forum but perhaps some have new ones after having kept up with jehovah's chariot as the light gets brighter.

Old light. Sheeplike ones. Anyone who questions ‘too much’ when studying is dropped as not being ‘sheeplike’ if they ask too many questions.

How could a PIMO answer this without “outing’ themselves? I’m not sure. Apostate lies is such a go-to answer for anything they cannot defend.

I finally did it
by paradiseseeker init's done.. during the last month i've been talking with my closest friends about leaving the org and yesterday i finally talked with my parents.. it's been almost 5 months after i said that i would do it, but i think that this extra time has been beneficial.
i've said several times that i would opt for sending a resignation letter, but after talking to my best friends some of them suggested me becoming inactive and blocking my congregation's elders.
i've changed my mind and i will do that because the people that i care the most now know what's going on so they won't be worrying about me not attending the meetings.

I’ve been out since 1983, never looked back. Shunned (soft) by some, but not all, I’ve made a new life and raised a child to adulthood very successfully. Life is good!
