I agree bad association spoil useful habits, such as associating with pedophile ring leaders who abuse and re-abuse little children sexually then cover it up and then you dig your head in the ground. If that isn't the darkest part of the world, I don't know what is.

What it takes to keep separate from the world
by Sabin incheck out this mag.
june 15th, 1980.. without a doubt, our appreciating just how wicked & corrupt satan's world is will help us to keep separate from the world.
such appreciation will make it easy for us to obey the command found at psalms 97:10 "o you lovers of jehovah, hate what is bad.

A sad overall situation, especially to have you wondering. It does sound like he had awakened.
Wishing you peace.

Farewell
by EdenOne in"don't be dismayed by good-byes.
a farewell is necessary before you can meet again.
and meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.

An insecure bully, is an insecure bully who feeds off of bringing people down.
I haven't read the post you mentioned as the very same person you speak of attempted to pull a similar situation in my own experience as well it seems. Not happening. I avoid posts with she/he.
The best way around a bully, don't run as they feed off of that. Just stop giving them your energy. Avoid posts with them.
Edit: It's wonderful all of you are opening up and sharing your thoughts, opinions, agreeing/disagreeing, what you weren't allowed to do within the cult. There is a line however between insulting people as a 13 year old bully would and agreeing to disagree.

Disfellowshipped at a funeral
by Yogapants inrecently at a funeral for an active jw, death was sudden and tragic.
was surprised that that one of the disfellowshipped children of the deceased was comforted by the jw's at the funeral.
i would say the majority hugged and said a few short words to the disfellowshipped child on the recieving line to comfort the family.

As OneEyedJoe stated, that's what they did to my loved one during a funeral. They lured him in. He went back in a few months later. -

Hi Hollywood, welcome to this forum.
Please continue posting here, expressing and letting it all out. I am very sorry for the pain and suffering you've endured. It wasn't your fault.
You're blessed in that you're awake. Embrace your soul and use your gifts, don't let them take away your power any more as they've already have in numerous ways.
An opportunity with an agency may have passed by, but there's more than one agency in the world, and numerous in Los Angeles. There is only one of you and your gifts to share with the world. Get out there and express what your soul craves.
You and your mother have two separate life paths. Don't kill yourself slowly by trying to force yourself into her life path, and don't feel guilty for walking away from her path either. It isn't yours.

Your thoughts on Halloween , yes, no or maybe ?
by Finkelstein inwell its that time again when the ghouls come out to play.
i personally think halloween is a bit irresponsible and inappropriate from a sociological perspective.. there's something about the intent of frightening young impressionable children minds with frightening objests.
and feeding them candy which most likely cause tooth decay and stomachs is irresponsible activity conducted by adults.

Most things are neutral, we add the evilness to it if we choose. We can take an object and add a negative connotation to it from thousands of years ago, or flip it around and make it our own.
Many things are also Pagan.
A parent can always throw their own party with tasty healthier options for candy, and you don't have to scare children. The other option is taking them to children friendly events.

Take him on a father and son weekend trip and if you have the funds, invite Steve Hassan over for a visit. If not, gather ex-JWs in your area and have an intervention.
