Welcome to the first steps to free your mind. Morality comes from our ability as humans to predict future consequences of our actions and make choices to help us gain a better outcome for everyone involved. In the flood scenario, you clearly see how God only cares about his own egotistical importance. With time you will see God is dead, and yes we killed him. It is time for our species to leave behind our childish fears and embrace life for what it is. A brief moment in time.

The Irrational Psychopath Landlord
by The Marvster inwell after a few years of lots thinking, questioning everything, and deconstructing of jw logic, i keep coming up against some problems.
though i probably consider myself an agnostic nowadays, one of the conclusions i keep coming back to is, if there is a god, looking at the way nature is structured, for example the predator-prey system that is indispensible to the survival of organisms, he is unlikely to be the same loving guy that's described in the bible (could he not have come up with a more compassionate system of survival in his limitless intelligence).
then again sometimes the actions described in the bible make him look like the description in the title of this thread... jw's definitely didn't help much with their logic.

CO's never say thank you for the green handshakes
by suavojr inever noticed how co's and ex-do's never say thank you for the hard earned money they get from the friends?
they truly believe they are entitled to live an easy life at the expense of others.
this makes my blood boil!

Sorry for the generalization, but damn! I'm born in and have lived in two states and outside the US and have never come across a CO or DO who has said thank you for the gift. I guess it has been my experience and thought many were the same way. -

These guys just visit each congregation week after week, collecting tax-free money to later enjoy a lavish vacation. They get what they deserve when mother cuts them of as they did with all of the ex- Do's.

The WT knew in 1922 that 1914 was wrong !
by Phizzy inin the may 1922 edition of the wt, page 133, rutherford is writing defending the work of russell and the 1914 doctrine, he quotes what some have said to prove russell was wrong :.
" "zedekiah was taken captive and jerusalem fell in the year 587 b. c.; thus showing that the full end of the gentile times and the fall of gentile governments is indicated to take place in 1934".. he goes on, in his own inimitable style, to disprove the above, but note, he is aware of the 587bce date for jerusalem's destruction.. if you are interested, you can read the whole mag here*, just click on pdf to read.. * https://ia700401.us.archive.org/19/items/1922watchtowerarticlesonchronology/1922_watchtower_articles_on_chronology.pdf.

all of jesus' warnings in that passage were relevant only to natural jews.

Not only was Jesus a false prophet, but he also believed in the worldwide flood, a fish swallowing a person and surviving, he believed Adam and Eve existed, spoke with a ghost in the desert and promised people they would never die (sound familiar?) The list can go on....

Nice summary, and the best part is that all they do is repeat from steps one through 10. It is all the same and they repeat the same information, over and over and over. -

How do you overcome SHUNNING after leaving the organization and move on?

i for one cannot find the courage to breakaway, and this causes me great anxiety and stress.
it eats me alive to think that if i open my mouth everyone i know will simply turn their back on me.

I just cannot understand where do you get your strength to overcome SHUNNING.
