Seriously, dude. Good job.
You got kids man. You gotta be Strong.
You got a loving wife. You'l be fine!
let me briefly explain my back-story: i grew up in a jw household and was technically a jw until 20 years old.
i stopped attending meetings in 1998 and told my parents i was done in 1999. i'm not sure where i saw my future when i was 19 but i know for a fact i didn't see myself as a "witness" then.
i hated the hypocrisy and the extreme gossip.

It's not a cult???? Holy Crap!!!!!
I've told everyon i know for the last 7 years... itsacult
after more than a month of not attending the meetings, my girls will be returning to the meeting tomorrow.
their father is taking them.
i was so happy because my girls were free from the boredom, drudgery and mind control inflicted upon those that attend.
Nobody can take that license away. Not the elders. Not the narcissist jw mom. Not the Narcissist co dependent mother in law. ( Special Recognition to Aunti Bay in the Philipines. ) None of them can do anything about it. All of their intense control and mind bending nonsense can be put in a bag and thrown away with the garbage because they can only control the kid for 50 percent of the time. When the kids are here they have a license to play dates, sleep overs, sports, social interactions (at all levels) and a license to do, say, and think almost anything they desire. Few restrictions on freedom of thought in this house. they can say pretty much anything they want and they will not be judged. They will receive unconditional love 24/7/365 and celebrate all holidays with reckless abandon. You don’t have to worry about that. They will pray nightly and finish the prayer with “in Jesus name Amen.” and if the JW’s don’t like that they can pound sand. Lots and lots of sand. Lots and lots of pounding. Have fun ladies.
Welcome to Social Animal Boot Camp! Pound Sand Ladies!
The Running joke in this house is when the kid hurts himself it’s not run and get the ice. It’s here comes the ambulance, wooo wooo wooo, You need a blood transfusion!
tonight on the service meeting we discussed why jws are not false prophets.
of the ten minute part two were spent discussing that jws just had wrong expectations and only very minor changes over the years although nothing specific was mentioned.
the other eight focused on the core bible truths that have remained the same over the years.
NEW YAUGHTS!!! WE JUST LOVE THIS IDEA!!!
based on a letter elders in the united states have just received in the past week from the governing body, work on the warwick complex will take " a few years" to complete.
concurrent with this, the organization urges the rank and file to urgently preach the "good news of the kingdom" because we are so deep into the end.
so, why bother with the warwick project - or indeed the just advised project in the united kingdom to relocate the london bethel?
WHAT ELSE ARE THEY GOING TO DO WITH THE BILLION DOLLAR GOLDEN CALF!!! ERR CASH COW!!!!!

i guess i have issues.
or am i just soo awesome.
please don't tell me i am becoming danny hazzards twin.
Holy Crap! trujw!!
i was thinking what a crushing blow it would be to the organization if the warwick project was stalled or held up in court.
many times a project will run into legal challenges over environmental issues or a lack of planning on the social-traffic- air quality - noise impacts.
political pressure on the council also can create headaches for the project proponents.. i saw a community once that had an indian casino planned.
Let these asshats build a palace to the sky. who cares.
they are in serious denial over all the evidence that the ship/organization is going down in the sea of the ocean of information hit by the internet iceberg.
they want to milk the rank and file from as much($&labor) as they can get from them before the ship sinks into notorious oblivian.. we should expect this mentality to lead them into desperate measures lacking all sense just as hitler faced his last days directing his generals into deadly manuvers dispite their objections.
a desperate man driven by fear and in denial rushing headlong into defeat so obvious, some high ranking military men tried to kill him but failed.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/adolf_hitler.
They are rockstars. They are going to live in a 500 million dollar palace. Good on you....
yet another update on my story:.
for various reasons, i still have to go to all meetings.
(i am looking to change my personal circumstances to allow me to live somewhere else so i can fade easier)... i actually don't mind going to the mid-week meeting since i can comment on the bible reading, and slowly but surely i can introduce little seeds of cognitive dissonance... making it seem like i am super interested in what the interlinear says or that people can actually go and check out the manuscripts for themselves online!
