Welcome, thanks for sharing with us. My story also is also very similar. I was the first in my family to get out, shortly after I left home to go to college. I was about 20 when I started to fade. I was completely out at 22. I would highly recommend fading if your family is still in. Be careful about sharing your newfound truth, you have to pick your moments very carefully. Fortunately for me, all of my family, including brothers, sisters, mom and dad are now out. They didn’t like that I quit going to the meetings in the beginning, but I gave them time to deal with it, and never pushed my discoveries about the JW cult on them, until they were at the point of fading where they could handle the truth. I have been out for over 10 years now, and trust me it is the best thing you could ever do, releasing your mind from cult control is a very positive life changing experience. I have lots of new friends who like me for who I am, and not because we are in the same cult, and therefore should try to get along. I don’t view my life as a JW as a complete disaster, I think it has made me very strong in certain areas: public speaking, talking with complete strangers about something they don’t want. (Good sales training). I wish you all the best and congratulate you for taking this first step in freeing your mind.
i recently bought a high powered rifle and am presently buying a pistol for back-up.
i have a cross bow, a compound bow, and several swords and knives, in fact i have been collecting knives for some time and have learned how to use them in defending myself and in taking the initiative in learning to defend myself.
i am quite versed in using both the croww bow and the compound bow, it seems the goverment doesn't want to defend us and just wants to unarm us.
Get a dog, much better than a gun. What's a gun going to do for you when someone is standing over you when you or your family are sleeping?
I would recommend a dog that is easily trained and will not attack you and your family (pitbulls no good). German Shepards are one of the best.
I have a rusty shotgun, its loaded with rock salt, to be used in severe situations, like someone messing with the women in my life. ; )
i wouldn't.
i don't care too much for spike lee but i like some of his movies.....i just think mel needs some help.
I always liked Mel Gibson movies, but he was never a standout for me. Now that he has gone all religious with the anti Jew thing, I actually have more respect for him. Nobody in Hollywood wanted to make his passion of the christ movie, he went it alone, funded it and made a killing. Hollywood is run by the Jews, and Gibson is one of the few that has stood up to their propaganda. The Jews are a condemed race for killing the messiah, Mel Gibson knows it, and nothing the Jews will ever do will ever change history.
okay well the good news is i have joined the gym!
i feel motivated and energised!
hurrah.
Peaches, If you are just starting a workout program, I would recommend researching your workouts. There are a lot of good books and magazines on the subject.
Dont go too hard on the weights to start. Keep the weight low, watch your form (dont swing or bounce the weights). I would recommend about 20 reps for each exercise. The last few reps should be difficult. If they are too easy increase the weight. Make sure you warm up and stretch before starting your weight routine, and stretch after your routine. This will help reduce the risk of pulling a muscle and should help in your recovery time.
well, not really rebellion but that i've wanted one of these for a long time so i went and did it today, and i love it!
my little sister came out for a visit this weekend and i told her everything about leaving the jw's.
she has pretty much left about 6 months ago when she went away to college.
Yes I agree, those short jeans are very rebellious.....your jw family must have fliped out when they seen those.
my wife and i have been disassociated for about 2 months now.
every day in our small town we are being shunned by former friends.
one in particular annoyed me today.
Chuckyy,
How you deal with your fealings of anger, is to treat these people like you would a mentally disabled person. They have a disablilty, don't take it personal. Would you get upset at someone who had schizophrenia, and treated you abnormally? No, you would understand that they need help, medication, etc, and some could never be cured.
I would recommend that you read some books about leaving mind control groups, such as Combating Cult Mind Control by Steve Hassan. It may help you to understand the mental disablilites that these people have, and help you cope with their actions. I used to also get very upset with being shunned, but now I just feel sorry for these mentally challanged individuals.
Pharisee
would you have to think about it??

I found a wallet when once and returned it to its owner. About 5 years later I lost my wallet while walking down one of the busiest streets in the city. The wallet fell out of my jacket, and a man saw it fall out, and ran back about a block to give it to me. My theory, what comes around goes around! Its not the money in a wallet that is usually the big loss, its all of the info and cards, they can take months to replace and can be a big headache. Plus with identity theft, you always worry about who has the wallet? Do the right thing and return it!
winner and margin, if you please (final score too, if you're really brave!

Australia by 10 points! But what the hell do us Canadians know about Rugby?
" if the watchtower said it, and the men on the platform preached it, then it must have been true.
so it was very hard to accept as an adult, that they were wrong.
i blame myself.
It's funny, AlanF has you guys (Spirit Walker and Phantom Stranger) totally cornered, and all you can do is roll on your backs and pee all over yourself.
Why don't you answer his questions?
You know why, because you would have to admit you are wrong!
Sad really?
