You and me both, LHG.
Listen to this outrageous story:
Girl marries guy, dragging him out of his mother's house.
He bails after about 2 months, goes back home to Mommy's and holes up.
Girl is devastated, divorces him, gets over it, eventually finds another JW guy and they plan to get married.
The elders say, "Nah, ahh, ahh, not gonna happen. You're not scriptually free to get married."
Girl cannot get a confession of adultery out of her ex. (My theory is that he was gay and realized he couldn't fake it.)
Elders have the solution: Marry your new husband, let us know when, we'll disfellowship you but let you come back after only 6 months if you play by the rules, and then everyone lives happily ever after.
So, that's what happened.
And that's someone who wanted to stay in the truth! Both of them!

What about the traditional method?
Date and marry a worldly guy, if he won't come into the truth, suck up a short disfellowshipment and then you're good.
What, no one does this anymore?

Welcome. Your first instinct is to shout the lies from the rooftops!
Do not do this!
This reaction makes sense to ordinary, unbrainwashed people.
But, trust us, this is a bad move because their minds have been compromised. Their ability to use critical thinking has been compromised!
Story after story on this forum proves that this way of doing things just does not work.
Be miserly with your new knowledge and reveal small things slowly. This has been the way that has shown the most success by people on this forum.
Spend some time reading the stories of others. You will find much that you will recognize, some warnings, some advice, and much fellowship without judgment.
Welcome!

Anybody ever have one of those days where you can't put your penis wherever you want and so you try to extort thousands of €uros out of dozens of people?
No?
Yeah, me neither!

Newly Enlightened, Lloyd's live stream video has been age restricted and is only available on YouTube.
What in the world?
Was there something on it inappropriate for children?
Surely not!
I mean, look at the photo above. It just oozes "appropriate for children!"

I feel sorry for those worried about extradition to Croatia.
Because, obviously, this is the most important thing your government has going on in eastern Europe right now.

JeffT, yes exactly, with the exception that Watchtower hasn't been stupid enough to admit their own illegal activities.

Short summary:
Don't mention any of that stuff that I already admitted because that's defamation.
Turn back now! "Avoid a course" that could lead to your doom.

2022-March-How Parents Can Protect Their Children From Misuse of Blood!

how parents can protect their children from misuse of blood.

This is regarding a situation in which your child is hospitalized and the hospital wants to give your child blood to save its life.
*Highlight (lowlight)
Don't allow the hospital to sneakily get a court order without your knowledge. Demand from the beginning that you as a parent be included in the proceeding and use the Hospital Liason Committee recommend alternative treatments to the judge.
Also *DO NOT mention your hope for the resurrection for your child as it may make you "appear unreasonable." ( yes, it does )
Theocratic warfare yet again.
If you were a judge, would you believe testimony from the Hospital Liason Committe or medical doctors, specifically the ones treating the patient?
I would hope that hospitals would be aware of this and know to get a court order immediately upon the discussion with the parents that they are refusing blood. Emergency court orders happen at all times of day or night.
I talked to the surgeon who was performing bloodless surgery for my father and asked him about children. He told me that he was confident that he could do the surgery successfully on my father, but pointed at my nephew who was a toddler and said he would get a court order for him "like that" and snapped his fingers.

I would like to invite everyone to send me their email addresses so I can then formally request the equivalent of €3,000 from each of you.
Wait, what? No, you don't want to do that? Whatever shall I do? How will I support myself?
You are all abusive! I won't let you comment on my threads anymore!
If you say anything negative about this request, I will get Legal Advice and take Action!
You all just hate me cause you ain't me!
