  How can we believe such nonsense? Because the average JW does not stop to think about the things we are taught and they win our trust in such a conniving way that we simply do not pay attention. But when you sit down to understand their teachings it just screams CULT!!!!

  Interview with an Apostate: Simon

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i had an idea for coming up with a standard(ish) set of interview questions which members of the ex-jw community could use to provide insights into their lives as a kind of series (yeah, i was thinking of "interview with a vampire", lol).. anyway, this is the result to show the sort of thing i'm thinking of (applied to myself) and i'd like feedback on the format and the questions as well as who you'd also like to see "interviewed".. feel free to provide your own life story as a separate topic or ask any additional questions that i've missed.

  it's not meant to be rigid so questions / themes can be adapted as needed and split / joined as appropriate.

  the common questions will hopefully apply to everyone for some consistency and to guide the writing process with additional questions asked that make sense to each subject.. well, here goes .... tell us a little about yourself and your family.. im an independent software developer who grew up in manchester (uk) but now lives in calgary (canada) with my wife angharad and two boys, liam and dylan.

  Thanks for sharing Simon!

  Paraphrasing, you mention that you wish Hell could exist for evil and manipulative charlatans.

  Do you think then the idea of a hell for evil people would be out of the question?

  What do you think would be an appropriate punishment for people in religious authority that harm so many innocent lives? We all know JW's is not the only religion in this category.

  Thanks for sharing! I loved this part: Don't linger. Get out as quick as you can. You may fear you are losing family, but in reality you are gaining life. Then worry about your family.

  The elders came by and my DA letter

  by Crazyguy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the lead elder co of my hall said he was going to push for a jc meeting.

  i could tell all along all hes interested in is protecting his god the org.. so i'm 90% sure now of going on the offesive and first having a family meeting telling them i'm offically quitting and how its going to play out and how i'll will be shunned even though i have commited no sin.

  i also may explain a little of why and how i came to this decision with out bashing the org to much out of respect for my wife.

  It is a good letter and this shows the WT is not interested in what the Bible truly teaches. Even if you remove the ending where you state you are no longer a JW, the next question from the elders would be: Do you beleive the GB is the FDS and appointed by God?

  Rock on crazyguy!

  Never forget what you said 4 years ago...

  But WE ARE SURVIVORS of this cult and we should never underestimate ourselves and the power we had within us to do what we did. No matter what else happens in our life we have this to be proud of. We need to remind ourselves of this often and give ourselves a big pat on the back.

  Yes, we ARE SURVIVORS and proud of it! We are here for you

  I am sorry to hear that you are receiving such unloving treatment Hopscotch

  I want to thank you for sharing the song and don't forget that life goes on until the end. You have shown courage for standing up against lies and manipulation and what we decide to fight against today will give our future generations the courage to fight back.

  I just thought of something....

  by ILoveTTATT in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if satan is the #1 apostate, and apostates are not to be talked to, why then did jesus even talk to him?.

  why did jesus, if he is supposed to be our example, even talk to him?.

  why doesn't the bible say "and satan tried to talk to jesus, and jesus ignored him.

  lol simon!

  Not only did he talk with Satan but he actually allowed the Devil to challenge him... I am afraid that only a person using critical thinking can see through the GB lies. How do you think a regular JW wold react to such a question? Like Billy said: And we all know what happens when a JW encounters someone that is knowledgable and disagrees with them... it's the JWs that scurry away, defeated, like vampires that just saw a garlic-flavored cross emitting sunlight.

  COC & ISOCF - (for believers) -what DON'T you agree with raymondo about?

  by Captain Blithering in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  hi all, i'm halfway through isocf having finished coc recently..

  i'm still in, not sure what i believe anymore, but along the christian viewpoint, uncle ray makes a lot of sense to me.

  so are there any contrary viewpoints out there, any points ray made that can be argued against or that you find hard to swallow?

  TD if a smart JW can explain what you just did is because they don't trust their own tranlation, lol. Truth is that Ray presented overwhelming evidence against the Blood Doctrine.
