It's so strange, everyone I tell that I'm an ex JW find it endearing. They find it interesting and cool. And no big deal.

Reinstated and then fade
by Zeds Dead ini'm a man - d'fd for 2.5 years now and divorced.
find it hard to date girls out here only due to always having this secret i carry with me that i was once a jw and the thought of telling a girl one day why my family don't acknowledge me as even alive.. recently been thinking of trying to get reinstated and then do a quick fade as i cant go back to the whole jw stuff.. easier said than done and was turned down twice by elders after an immediate attempt 2 years ago.. my motivation for trying would be 1.
) to see if family make contact and 2) play the last hand in their game and give the middle finger.. interested in viewpoints?.

"Belief" and "Faith" are Simply Emotional Terms for Ideas and Opinions (long post)
by xjwsrock inthis is my current bottom-line conclusion after starting to see through the jw game 3 to 4 years ago and going through my own process of waking up.
it helps to write it down and put it "out there".
i hope it helps or resonates with you in your own personal process.. basically if i were given 10 seconds to say something to an active jehovah's witness that i cared about it would be the headline above.

Dear Perry,
There is no need to accept any model of autobioenesis in order to realize the Bible is a pile of crap.
I agree with Cofty's summation of Yahweh's character (I may express it a little differently), now you've met two of us.

Jehovah loves "even rounded numbers" or could this be a way to disprove the inspiration of the Bible?
by notjustyet inwhile i am not able to recall them all at this time, i remember so many instances that when a number was quoted in the bible, especially large numbers, they were all "rounded up" to the nearest hundred or thousand.
for instance the angel killed 185,000 syrians, not 184,879. sampson killed a thousand men with the jawbone of an ass, not 961. and on and on on the even rounded numbers.
i would guess that it could be agues that these numbers were correct but is that realistic?

The dudes from the Audio Visual department are always trolling for the hot chicks and hot dudes to use in videos and print.
I thought it was kind of hilarious when I saw how hot she was and being one of the primary actors in their little movie. The WTFBS is as shallow as any Hollywood movie house.

Cancer has been with us for a long time
by Coded Logic ina 2 million year old hominid has been discovered that had cancer in its foot - making it the oldest neoplasia found in the human lineage.
now, as to why cancer predates original sin by nearly 2 million years, i'd love to hear christian apologists try and explain.. http://sajs.co.za/osteogenic-tumour-australopithecus-sediba-earliest-hominin-evidence-neoplastic-disease/patrick-s-randolph-quinney-scott-williams-maryna-steyn-marc-r-meyer-jacqueline-s-smilg-steven-e.

Who exactly gets to decide who is and isn't "a disgrace to the black race"? Is there a secret governing body for black people that decides how everyone must think? Come to think of it, is there some authoritative body for white people ... because I think I might have been dropped off the mailing list - I've been thinking my own thoughts for years now and just generally deciding things for myself.
Seriously, the idea that someone is "a disgrace to their kind" is rarely the sign of a well thought out and reasonable stance.That's not an argument, it is my opinion/observation.
Lot's of white people in the South have been thinking for themselves for a couple of centuries. And they will continue to do so. My uncle, the KKK member, thinks his own thoughts, I'm sure. Or at least he thinks so.
My uncle is a disgrace to the white race as well. But more importantly, just like the sheriff, he's a disgrace to humanity.

About the OP,
Sheriff David Clarke is a disgrace to humanity, but especially the black race. He's speaking at the RNC, that pretty much says it all.
Republican Party, Jehovah's Witnesses, both suffer from similar delusions.
