Good one, PE! perfect for cart witnessing!
Lately, the scripture "Always learning, yet never coming to an accurate knowledge of truth" keeps appealing to me, especially in reference to this 'new generation' thing.
something occurred to me today.
quite randomly as i was working away at my desk i remembered an illustration from the bible teach book in which satan claimed he knew better than jehovah about ruling mankind.
here's the illustration from chapter 11 of that book:.

I agree with JW GoneBad If you didn't know what you were doing before this, you know what to do NOW! ;-}
so i have been "faded" for approximately 2.5 years.
my parents know i haven't attended a meeting in quite some time, but don't know that i have been dating a guy for about eight months.
we really love each other and his family is super sweet.
One more "two cents"... What if you DO introduce them to your parents, your mom and dad don't talk to you and then.....
you don't keep that boyfriend? All that drama for nothing.
One thing I would say for sure. Your life has to be yours. Otherwise, you will have regrets.
i've already posted in this forum but i haven't told you my story.
nowadays i'm a pimo in my late 20s from spain.. i was born in the cult and i can say that during my whole childhood and most of my teenage years i believed in this.
however, i felt that here was something wrong with me, as i wasn't comfortable telling people i was jw, talking about jw stuff, nor did i feel "excited" and "grateful" whenever a watchtower publication told me that i should.
Hi paradiseeker,
You have a strong will for truth, that is why you feel the need to leave. We all wanted "truth", and that is why we are all disappointed and even mad at WT for lying to us...
When asked the monumental question, "Where will you go?" Simply answer, "Somewhere I am not lied to"
to the person who reported me to the elders from here - thank you for making me be able to leave the organisation a whole lot easier and sooner than i'd planned.
you did me a huge favour ๐.
Maybe it wasn't what you wrote here...
Maybe it was someone who had access to your phone or browser history? That would do it!
one of the most common "defences" of jw organization is that "the brothers" are imperfect yet still strive to follow god's word.
"sure, they make mistakes," so the argument goes, "but so did god's people in the past, including in bible times.
" the key point is their readiness to keep studying god's word and learning from their mistakes.".
Yes, Lost in the Fog,
1% poison.... are you really going to keep drinking the water?
is this true?
is this really true?!.

OMG!!!! AS is always true....
If you didn't know about it before, WT will help you think about it NOW!!!
good afternoon , .
i wanted to ask everyone here , what was your trigger to waking up ?
i have been waking up for a long time , but in looking back itโs hard for me to look at one event and say โ ah ha โ , i think mine is like a slow leak - like a crack in a damn - and then hold on , because after that itโs just a flood of information.
I always had questions, and in the 70's and 80's we could ask, discuss, research things, even disagree... to a certain extent... as long as you said, "well, we'll see what Jehovah does" and, you were always on a hamster wheel.
For me, my husband, two sons and daughter in law, it was 607. BAM! GONE! No more lies.
this is my first post to this site, im pale.emperor's brother:).
first of all, i've left being a jw in june.
since then my family have tried to convince me it's "the truth" and force me to go back even though it's my own decision.
Good job Dan, you will look back on this day feeling so happy to have not spent one more minute under the thumb of lies. Now, you can truly live life, breathe, explore, change your mind, play, grow, sleep in!
Congratulations, you have taken your life back!
this video, by the unreluctant, and the links below it, helps us to see what the wt is really about.
remember the "ngo"?
'we just needed a library card' scandal?
Thx Atlantis! Who would have known that the WT was in bed with so many political "beasts"?
WT lets poor people in Malawi die for lack of a 'political card', saying "we must be loyal to Jehovah", whilst they themselves take advantage of any and all political means to build their greedy empire.
No JWs would be any the wiser, as they 'remain separate from the world' not 'becoming involved' with the empires of Satan. So, if you are like me, when you leave JWs you hardly know anything at all about "the world", politics, passing laws or anything. It makes it so easy for the WT to take advantage of us.
WT is truly 'all business'.,,, it doesn't need 'no stinkin' library card'!
