  i was at a criminal trial all day in murfreesboro, tn, involving the notorious jw who i call "mommy molester," angela montgomery.

  this is the reason i didn't know until this evening that the nightline program with the segment on jws was changed until tomorrow night.

  (i forgot my phone.

  edit - "the days of noah" damn!.

  long story short - i need to go to bed!

  i was in edinburgh today with my wife (football, coffee, walks, food, cinema) and i always try to take 10 minutes to have a chat with the jws on the trolley in the "big city".. i challenged an older guy who turned out to be an pioneer about the generation.

  I was wondering the same thing, Cofty... The minute I kept hearing "Noah", the GB /WT modus operendi came to mind.... Repeat, repeat, repeat =make it the truth. They have done the same thing throughout their history, they won'the stop now. To the thinking person, Jesus applied Noah to "his day"..... & it was ONLY forty years....

  Definitely do not meet up....

  Nowadays, things are very different than the innocent "Hey, we're just stopping by"..... etc.

  I had a friend that was asked to go to a "meeting" that she thought was one of 'upbuilding,' she cried, and the next thing you knew she was "marked".... She had no clue, until the announcement!

  After that bit of insanity (elders with an ego can do and say anything they very well like) she thought, "Hell no, I won't go.... ever again!" I agree!

  Never, and I mean never, meet with them... You have no control. They are a law to themselves. They do not deserve any information from you, so you SHOULD 'play along' / mislead with their "stupicratic warfare" / do anything to get them off your back. "I have a cold" "I am anxious, I couldn't sleep" "I changed my mind" or just plain old "don't go." Don't show up... People miss doctor's appointments that took them months to get, they miss job interviews, they miss dinner dates. What is so bad about "missing a meeting"?

  If they do show up, and ask 'why?", just stare them in the face and don't answer them... Raise your eyebrows, shrug your shoulders, say, "Hmmm?" and walk away.

  Don't go... your life will be more and more complicated, and why?

  i've been lurking here for a while now, and i guess you could call me a fader.

  i don't have hate in my heart for the organization that i spent most of my life in, but i have had an awakening.

  luckily, so has my wife, and that way i don't feel so alone.

  Yay! you made it! You "awoke", and so did your wife ;-)

  That is awesome! Writing is a great way to sort things out, I like your opening words, I think we can ALL ID with that:

  "Haunted

  By the things I was told

  That I'd never grow up, never grow old".

  Next step? Start really living and enjoying life!

  Welcome ;-)

  Governing Body Member Stephan Lett Lies On JW.TV

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i thought it would be important to clearly point in the recent talk by governing body member stephan lett, that he did in fact deliberately lie concerning what he described as lies and false information by apostates, concerning the organization being permissive toward people in the organization who had been involved in pedophilia.

  the truth of the matter is thats exactly what the organization has been doing and perhaps for a long time.

  the recent candace conti law suit where she was awarded 28 million dollars was levied against the wts for its irresponsible behavior by the elders who gave no notification of the accused jonathan kendrick that he had been charged with pedophilia and spent months in jail for his actions .

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbsv4z03sau.

  youtuber peter rose called bethel and asked them if it was true that peter sutcliffe was baptized.

  the brother who answered didn't think so but went off somewhere to check and came back to say that it wasn't true.

  Introducing myself

  by maksutov in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my name is russ, i'm 40 years old, from the uk, and i left the jws nearly 5 years ago.

  i've been a member of the yuku board throughout that time, so there are probably some on here who know me already.

  there seems to be more activity over here at the moment, so i thought i'd pop in and say hi.i was raised as a jw, started questioning it when i was 16, but there was no internet back then (well, no www anyway) so i got sucked right in and got baptized when i was 18. auxiliary pioneered on and off for a couple of years, then became a ministerial servant.

  Welcome, so nice to hear that you made it out Russ... No more depression, awesome! Your daughter? I think that with a little nightly storybook fiction she may turn out like my boys... Creative, artistic, independent thinkers... Pick up a fun book at the library, have her go with you, and read a chapter a night... Spend time drawing, singing, developing the relationship that should exist between kids and dads and moms.... (something you don't usually find in JWs, sadly, they are too busy) Let her see the bright, explorative side of you, sing your heart out and enjoy life with her, and then???? maybe your wife will join in! Welcome!
