  oh my goodness, i'm so angry i can't even speak!

  "women who complained that former jehovahs witness elder jonathan rose, 40, had molested them as children relived their nightmares in front of him after he was released from jail".

  Shameful re-abuse of these poor victims. This cult needs to be closed down.

  Main reason JWs are JWs

  by Batman89 in

  2. relationships

  what is the(or what was your) main motivation for serving god as a jw(or any christian)?.

  a) love for god and genuinely trying to learn more about him and bible truths?.

  b) to escape punishment/death at armegddon?.

  I had zero bible knowledge and allowed myself to believe a jw family member who seriously "threatened" me that my little babies would die at armageddon if I did not get baptized. So I came in to "save" my children.

  How many remember the 15 min break Between the Public Tlk and WT Study?

  by Wasanelder Once in

  as kid i remember a break of 15 minutes between the public talk and the wt study.

  all the new ones and "weak" ones ran out to smoke.

  loved to see the attendant round them up to come back in when the droning began again.

  I heard stories about those breaks and was a bit jealous myself...in our rural kh, the eldubs "encouraged" us not to step outside during the meetings, even if we had a little one who was not feeling so happy about being cooped up in a stuffy hall. The sanctioned breaks would have been welcome!

  Maybe if one of the gb or wts leaders was related to a famous evangelist who counseled US presidents, we would see their names and photos in major newspapers as they are sued by the abused jws. For now, those stories sadly and wrongfully never seem big enough to gain national exposure.

  for 2 years, soon after my daughter's baptism, i have been exchanging many emails with an elder of her congregation.

  good man, but he is a jw and he just drove me to the brink of madness recently; that was the drop the spill the water.

  it's a cult.

  Fake friends and other things that annoy me about the Kingdom Hall

  by MysticMage in

  2. experiences

  it was easy to figure people out.

  as long as you got out in service and put money in the money box people will pretend to be your "friend".. but let's be honest is most of business associates.

  they are your friends as long as you are active doing the watchtower bidding.. and then let's talk about the lack of hot women.

  It is so obviously a lie......now

  by snare&racket in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  once the spell is broken, one you take a deep fresh breath outisde of the watchtower camp, the amazingly obvious realisation becomes clear.... of course this is a lie, of course this is ridiculous!

  you find you have memories of really believing the claims and promises, but it seems like another life, another experience.

  it seems so incredibly false once you leave and it is very difficult to belive you even once accepted it!

  Snare, absolutely wonderful post.

  The Watchtower literally promise the earth, perfect health, no death, to be young again, to see the dead again....they go for every human want and fear. Who wouldn't want it? ...true. But to have it.... everyone else has to.....die.

  And therein lies the problem. Thankfully, those of us here just couldn't do it anymore. How many could not bear the thought of innocent people being slain? Those illustrations showing cheerful families turning their backs on millions being slaughtered......is immoral. Let's hope many more are disturbed by those thoughts and walk away to a better life.
