Why did you pick the name you have now
by label licker injust wondering if your name describes what you saw, how you were treated when you were "in" or now "out", maybe your personality, ect.... i'm label licker and the why i picked this name was because of all the licking up one side of elders and down the other to either be an elder or ministerial servant.
one time i was standing right in front of this brother who wasn't made an ms yet and he totally ignored me and talked right over my head speaking really loud trying to catch the co's attention.. got sick of watching the poor elderly sitting all alone or standing against the wall like a wall flower with noone to talk to and yet all these label lickers would take turns picking up the elders elderly parents and take them shopping and do their groceries at least four times a week while out in service, yet, there was noone there to take a meal to a sister who just got out of the hospital with a heart attack.
when i had shown up at her apartment with a meal she asked if i could wash her private and change her bandages.

Hi! I'm New Here
by alecholmesthedetective inhi there, as was suggested to me, i'm starting this thread to say hi to everyone.. my awakening began recently, after the new light on the 'slave'.
i felt it didn't add up and went to check and found out ttatt.
for a while i tried to find evidence of whether the wt might still be god's organization, i needn't say i couldn't.. i had already resigned as a ministerial servant and a pioneer, had already had several issues with the elders and did not put up with their nonsense for a long.

Quebec has been threatening to separate for a very loooong time. I am also of the opinion that it will never go through it

by AuntConnie inwe have special seating arrangements in my kingdom hall where other families know they are not to go near them!
a trouble making family would intentionally take our seats until we made their life hell by lying about them.
they left our paradise kingdom hall and now i am working on changing the color of our the seats(purple, scarlet) the elders and elderettes will be sitting on.

The story of Bo Juel Jensen - the man behind the Anti-Watchtower media campaign in Norway
by cedars inhi guys.
richard e. kelly has kindly contributed a great article to jwsurvey.org on the link below.... http://jwsurvey.org/child-abuse-2/bo-juel-jensen-could-he-be-watchtowers-worst-nightmare.
richard tells the story of bo juel jensen, an ex-witness who has been doing marvellous work in raising awareness of watchtower child abuse mishandling in norway.. as with most child abuse victims, bo's story is a disturbing one.

I had watched Bo's compelling youtube video a couple of weeks ago and now his full fascinating story. I feel that many good things will come out of bo's campaign. I am looking forward to the unfolding of this scenario. Bo's story has the propensity of being the next Candace Conti.
As always Thank you Cedars for bringing it to the forum's attention

Good Morning MSConcerned: My heart goes out to you. Don't give up reading and learning. You owe it to yourself. I haven't read the whole thread and apologies if someone else suggested this. See if you can read Ray Franz's books: Crisis of Conscience and In Search of Christian Freedom. Those books will put together all the pieces of the puzzle for you.
warm regards,

New Member...
by sosoconfused inhello everyone, just wanted to say hi and introduce myself.. i am a mid 30's just stepped aside elder, who just couldn't handle it anymore.. i am a 3rd generation born-in and former pioneer and bethelite.
it has been a log somewhat confusing ride for me, but i am finally settling in to realizing that i need to really look at what me and my family are doing.. .
its funny though what really got me here... it wasn't the 40 year old men telling me they were looking at boobies on the computer and hoping not to get in trouble, it wasn't the watching young people bail left and right, it wasn't the ever changing new light etc... but a simple thought.. .

All those years that watchtower made the rank and file slaved for 60 hours a month and now 30 hours is enough. I hate what this organization does to people.

what is the earliest age you heard someone get Baptised?
by enigma1863 ini was curious what is the youngest age any jw has been baptised.
i thought it was hypocritical for jws to say wait for marriage because its such a big deal but "why wait to get baptised".
i think my step sister was 11 years old.

About 5 years ago, a very prominent elder gave a talk specifically targeting young people. He said that 10 is not too young to get baptized.
Baptisms at a young age are encouraged in the org. A fellow poster on this thread pointed out that we woun't allow a 9 or 10 year old to drive or get married, yet its ok for babies to get baptized. What a farce! I have what this organization does to people especially children.
