i received a call from my book study conductor the other day asking for my email address so that he could start sending electronic copies of the km to me.
has anyone else received calls like this?
i've missed quite a few meeting (it's been nice) so am unaware if any letter has been read.
The km is so important, oh my, just have to be in on the latest little news - okay, I chased the guy down and finally obtained the precious. Was it worth all the trouble? No. Just a bunch of dumb junk. Again.
So the next time I'm sitting there without one because I didn't struggle through the crowd, I just came in and sat down. Now everyone around me noticing I don't have one, oh oh! Something must be terribly wrong with Marina, she doesnt have a km! Why did the elder not give her one? Should we share our copy or maybe the elders want her to be ignored!
Every one of their little tools is designed to control people and their thinking and emotions. You can be a little bit outcast, a little disapproved, a little bit tarnished and diminished, or totally demeaned and humiliated, just according to how they turn the dimmer switch. Because the wt is a cult, corrupt and criminal.

to all bodies of elders in the united states branch territory re: branch visit in november 2014. dear brothers:.
in our letter dated february 19, 2014, to all congregations in the united states branch ter- ritory, you were informed of a special weekend program to be held on saturday, november 8, 2014, and sunday, november 9, 2014. this program is in connection with the branch visit scheduled for the united states and will be broadcast to locations throughout the branch territory.
we are pleased to inform you of some of these arrangements.. since the goal is to allow as many as possible the opportunity to benefit from this branch visit program, provision will be made to allow any kingdom hall properly equipped to receive the broadcast.
Lois! you gave me a huge chuckle, that phrase was hilarious - What will the GB monster pull out of its rear end for nu lite, HAHAHAHA!!! :-)

finland attacks judicial committees.
please like and share article so more get to see it!.
Ryan O'Neal in the movie Paper Moon, was a great con man who tricked widows into buying fancy bibles.
The WT is no better. The Worldwide Tricksters. Schemers, lying thieves of our time and lives. They can't any of those con men really believe that a god exists. If they did they couldn't treat people the way they do.

after the reading out of the letter about the "new donation arrangement" this week, there is going to be a flood of money pouring into the org's coffers!.
not only from the bank accounts of the sheep, but soon after from the bulk of money in kingdom hall accounts worldwide!.
question: has anyone calculated how much cash could be grabbed from the 113,823 congregations on earth?.
It is painful to reflect on the fact that my family and I ever supported this criminal cult. I wish we had left for the reason that they have protected child abusers. We didn't realize the extent of the abuse or the vast amounts of money that was being spent on settling abuse lawsuits, until after we had faded for quite a while.
But at least we stopped contributing, i guess that's the main thing.

hey everyone.. i'm trying to convince mrs.objectivetruth to join the forum, but she's a bit nervous.
perhaps if you all can give her some words of encouragement, it will convince her to join the jwn family... btw she already knows ttatt.. she's just not convinced to join the forum..
welcome to Mrs. O.T.,
i read a lot here and enjoyed it very much. All the opinions, explanations, experiences are eye-opening to say the least. But the personal responses to my posts were incredibly supportive and have been extremely valuable to my recovery.
So i hope you will try joining in!

this is old news, as it happened six or so months ago, but i just found out today.
timothy campbell died of kidney cancer in november of 2013. he started one of the first ex-jw forums, beyondjw.
i met him in person once.
What a great understanding he shows in this article. I wish I could have met him.

but never gave it to the elders or anyone in the congregation?
.
My husband and I sent a letter addressed to the kh so anyone could have opened it. We just said both of us wanted no longer to be associated with jw's or known as jw's, and we both signed. We haven't heard a word from anyone since but I'm pretty sure it took, becuz nobody came around before the memorial, which they used to do.

they announced last week that the new atanta assembly hall has thus far raised 3.4 million dollars.
my local told that will become the society's come may 1. i wonder how that will go over with the ones who have been contributing to this fund..
There is an assembly bldg in Conyers- are they planning on another one in the Atl area?
so i think the title pretty much says it all.
i have a tendancy to be long winded about things, so i'll just give a general introduction and maybe tell things as i go along.
i don't even really know what i want from this site (ironically i remember jehovahs-witness.net mentioned from the platform as a site not to go to).
Welcome to you, Stumbeline, HeyThere and berrygerry!
Stum, you have for sure come to the right place and you will start to feel so much better as your de-programming goes along. 99% of the contributors here are brilliant thinkers and writers, compassionate and understanding as well as tremendously generous. I have been given so much encouragement to heal that sometimes nowadays I don't even have a thought about the jw or wt for several days at a time.
I enjoy using the Search and just type in different terms like reinstated or phrases like how long does reinstatement take, and then read experiences of hundreds of others who woke up to realize they had been in a cult.
Love to you, for healing and freedom!
