  Need to vent: My loathing for the JW cult increases more and more, while my wife clings more and more to it

  just as i think my loathing for the jw cult has peaked, it goes higher and higher.

  i wish this cult would just go away.

  i wish my wife would just wake up.

  Hey goingthru........

  I'm in a similar situation at home. Also much like our friend Doc, I became very ill when I discovered ttatt. Today, after nearly 8 years of stepping away from the WT, i am very much at peace with my life and my wife. I attend some Sunday meetings with her so she won't have to go alone and some assemblies. No attending the CLAM, no longer go in service, participate in meetings, clean the kh, donate, etc. Very much a fringe member to keep peace.

  I also use some of biblexaminer's strategy especially when we see the "cart" witnessing. I like to point out the 'do nothing' preaching that it must be embarrassing to stand and 'do nothing'. I often watch the monthly broadcast so I can question her on her opinion of how it went. I know that even she is embarrassed by some of the crap the gb throws out there. The "generation" timeline was laughable!

  What's a word that describes the way Witnesses behave as a group?

  by paul from cleveland in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i can't recall the word that describes a group that keeps to itself like the witnesses do.

  i thought it was "insular" but i don't think that's the one i'm looking for after reading the definition.

  i remember an elder using the word "clannish" and that has the proper definition but it reminds me of a group of elves.

  i've been updating the links at my web site and i'm working on the gtjbrooklyn pages now.

  The most notable change I've seen is the apathy that has invaded the borg. No more urgency. I hear more and more lifers sarcastically mentioning how we "should have been in the Paradise by now"!

  The migration away from all religion has started and is especially noticeable among the 'cult' religions.

  hey guys.

  i've decided that during this time of being dfed, maybe trying to get reinstated, i'm going to enjoy my time with myself.

  that being said, i would like to do some traveling when the weather warms up across the us.

  Why not visit Brooklyn Bethel, the worldwide headquarters of God's earthly organization. I hear it's lovely there. Err, I mean lonely there!

  Has anyone else collected their money back from local Kingdom Halls for money loaned for construction?

  by StoneWall in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just a reminder if you haven't, to get it back before they sell any more halls.even if you're currently da/df you can still collect any monies owed you by the kingdom hall as far as loans go.we were able to get back $1000 that my mom had loaned the local hall for a loan to build new one.it was documented by the paper that had been given each publisher back then on how much they could/would be willing to give as an outright donation or a loan.

  the loan was to be paid back whenever the publisher requested it.

  (not a specific date)i can't help but feel that a lot of the old timers that loaned monies to the society and/or k-halls have been forgot about by them or their families.

  NO! Like a fool, back in my "gung ho", "holier than thou" days, I gave $5k toward building our new KH. Now that I'm retired, I could certainly use that $5k for 'drugs, sex, and rock and roll'. lol

  WT should admit that 1914

  by bobld in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  was a man made date when jesus came and that a generation is not 102 plus years.. why not say something like this.when the disciples asked jesus for a sign and the end of the age.jesus gave them a composite sign and said all these things will take place.when-before the people now living(at the end of the age which no one knows)have all died..

  I agree with OTWO

  • "It's not easy to dump 1914. They are slowly doing it anyway."

    
    

    The WT has to go slowly in backing away from it's hair brained teachings and dates or risk losing it all. If you will notice, the WT hardly ever mentions 1914 or the "invisible presence" or 'types and anti-types' or how the "remnant will steadily decrease as the end nears".

    Out of sight, out of mind is their motto as they move forward with busy work and changes to distract the rank and file from noticing their abandonment of previously held core doctrines!

  GB bites off more than they can chew!

  by biblexaminer in

  the gb bit off more than they can chew.

  they promised that the nwt revised would be available in so many languages by now, and they have failed miserably.. english stands alone.

  as a result, they are in damage control mode.

  It's an American religion. Started in America, headquartered in America, all gb members live in America, and jehober loves English much better than other languages.

  God bless America!

  these numbers and letters:--gbr659967--are the only identifying markson this boe..the "informant" who sent it said:.

  "this letter came through the congregation inbox and so hasn't got theusual identifying information.

  the name of the file is probably thebest way to identify it.

  As time passes, the WT will slowly start destroying it's criminal past. Can't do it too fast or it will raise red flags even among the 'company men' but it's definitely starting.
