  Since You Have Left The Religion Are You Happier?

  i realize that some activist exjws really don’t seem to be happy in life.

  they finally got away from the organization and yet seem still negatively connected to it.

  some exjws are always upset because of what the “truth “ did to their lives, which is understandable.

  Oh, god, yes. My life is so much more fulfilling not being in. And so happy not to be involved in all the time wasting, soul sucking practices of the JW religion.

  I love New Braunfels, I was there a few years ago. I think apostate Roger Kirkpatrick lives there. He’s the one who wrote the truthful JW letter.

  I just remembered, there were ex Mormons there, too. They had someone speak about the “Mormon underwear”. It was eye opening, some of these wacky cult beliefs. The guy who spoke said he used to bring the underwear with to show in his talks, but someone told him that was offensive, so now he stopped.

  executive producing for vice tv is catherine whyte.. kaufman said: “after witnessing first-hand the cycle of abuse that runs deep within the jehovah’s witnesses, i could not rest until the dark truth of this organisation was brought to light.

  Just watched this on my iPad, someone on ex JW Reddit provided a link for those of us who don’t have Vice. Thank you to that person. It was very powerful to see the shocking amount of abuse that’s being covered up by the organization.

  I had no idea that Kim O’Donnell was abused by her mother as well. ((Hugs to you, my dear!)). This was a powerful documentary, very well presented. Barbara Anderson, Mark and Kim O’Donnell, Kameron Fader, and others, thank you so much for putting yourselves out there.

  This organization is right, we are indeed in the ‘last days’. But the last days are for them.

  here is what a co said at the elders and ms meeting.

  it goes to show that no matter how hard the governing body tries to instill fear of apostates, it's just not working on the young crowd of jws.. it's a new generations of born in jws--------and they don't buy this shit anymore.

  it's really over for the watchtower.

  If they expect to retain members long term, they need to become more mainstream, which they could do, with “new light”. Much of the reason I left, was due to not being able to live a “normal” life. If holidays, birthdays, flag saluting, etc. and blood transfusions became “conscience matters”, and they stayed out of peoples sex lives, they might last a bit longer.

  I went to one of these many years ago at Wheaton College, held in the Billy Graham Center. It was great. 👍🏻😀

  What Do You Think About Home Schooling?

  by minimus in

  i knew a few witnesses who were very proud of the fact that their kids were homeschooled.

  years ago, i would raise my eyebrows wondering why these families couldn’t simply integrate their kids with other “worldly” kids.

  at this point in time, with so many theories being pushed on kids and their parents, i can see why parents, if they are qualified, could instruct their kids themselves.

  That’s why there should be some oversight by the state, to check on the progress of the kids. A worldly mom I know home schooled her 4 kids up to high school, with only a HS diploma herself. Her kids knew NO math except simple addition and subtraction. She was a good, loving mom, but not a teacher.
