Garrett: I feel free and my depression has actually gotten much better.
That is the experience of most that leave.
Good for you, and welcome to the rest of your life!

Thank you...
by Garrett insome of you may have seen my previous post regarding my concerns with leaving the organization.. so many of you responded and were so kind and helpful, that is was rather overwhelming.
i didn't expect so many responses.
a lot of you also provided links to research as well as some books to read.

"Are you old in this system?" Feb 2015 broadcast video. Must watch
by stuckinarut2 inif you have not already watched the feb 2015 broadcast, go to approx.
it has an elderly sister talking about being old in this world...a long time pioneer who probably thought the end would have come years ago...as the society told her many times.. now she is told to be on a mission to get young ones to also pioneer, and watch for the not so subtle condemntion of higher education!.
sickening stuff........ they missed the obvious elephant in the room.... a life wasted on nothing...now she has no money, and lived waiting for a fairy tale!

baldeagle: This must be a huge organizational problem for the WTS leaders, that they have to constantly demonize going to college on such a regular basis.
It is.
I personally know three JW families with teenagers in high school. Two of the three families are intending to send their kids to college.
Woohoo!

Can the world condition be worse than this?
by abiather inthe innocent civilians being attacked is the norm of the day.
attacking hospitals too are happening frequently.
now schools being attacked is becoming a regular affair (last of its kind massacred 150 children in peshawar on december 16, 2014)..

abiather: It's everyone's experience that alcohol has no benefits except harm to the self and others, yet use of alcohol thrives!
Well that certainly has not been my experience so clearly you're wrong!

AK: That singing cart sure does have a nice home in a nice neighborhood. Depending on the location that house could be worth 300k or more.
When I first saw the video I thought it was my old neighborhood in SoCal. If it was, that house would now be in the $600,000-750,000 range.

"The congregation is very loving!" - 59:20 - 59:25"
Two people that you can't even see some by and give this poor old sister a quick pat on the back and walk away without any audible conversation. The whole thing lasts less than six seconds.
It's so weird the way the WT can make a statement and people believe without any evidence.
The manipulative appeal to emotions is so apparent.

True, but the trend has been a decrease in violence for several centuries. -

Study history and you'll learn that it almost always has been worse. This is actually better!
