by Funchback in

i left in 2006. i seem to vaguely recall that the written review was no more but i can't say for sure.. so, do they still do it?

Aww those written reviews!! hadn't thought of them in years. I don't ever remember them being graded though. But I am not surprised that some over zelous over lord would go to that extent.

So when there is a natural disaster, they don't want funds dedicated to help people in need , but now to build their Mecca, they are designating a separate box. Buildings are more important than people. Ipocrites!!

Thanks Searcher for the update

Has waking up ever made you physically ill?

has waking up ever made you physically ill?

perhaps because of the emotional strain etc..?.

if if so what were / are the symptoms?.

In the beginning I was elated to find out the real "truth". Then I got really mad followed by a period of depression when I thought of all that I had missed out.

I would say that everyone that comes out of watchtower will experience a period of emotional upheaval. I compare it to the stages of mourning: denial, anger, depression and eventually acceptance.

Special Talk During the Meeting Today About the Bad Press in Canada

by RobertT18 in

i was invited to a congregation in ontario, canada today and as soon as the meeting opened the brother conducting the meeting said there was a very important statement coming from the borg.

this talk replaced the two last parts of "living as a christian" section.

he started reading a letter from the borg about how much they loved us.

Nothing has been read in my part of Ontario. --Probably focusing on cities close to Montreal.

firstly thanks to cofty & smiddy for the kind words on my " final post" .

this post is simply to say over two months have passed since my last post and since then i have with my wife and son seen elton john live, visited stockholm, berlin, and most importantly appreciated " the natural beauty of my neighbourhood" with out even thinking about the watchtower.

i have also attended 3 watford football matches with my son and made better relationships with my parents, discovered harvey's draught beer and made new friends in my local pub.

Happy for you and your family.

friends

i registered in the board and i wanted to present myself.. i used to visit this forum some time ago and even register an account but then i tried to convince myself all was ok in the congregation.

now, i'm coming back :).

i live in a southern european nation, i'm a young jw, a good example in the congregation serving as a regular pioneer and ms. for all in the congregation i'm the good guy, one of the best examples in the area i live.

Hello Skepsis,

welcome here and hope you stay a while.

First, congratulations on "bucking the trend" and going to university. STEM has no doubt given you a well rounded knowledge but now you need to learn all there is to learn about TTAT, the religion you are associated with. You owe it to yourself to embark on an education journey of this sort.

Please don't fall for working part time to pioneer. Buck the trend again and find a full time job and don't waste more in doing the watchtower's bidding anymore. Find meaningful work in your field and live your life.

Take it from someone who sacrificed the best part of their ife at the alter of watchtower. I didin't go to school and pioneered into my thirties until I figured it out.

Hope to read more of your posts
