I was 11. I got baptized because I was jealous of my two cousins who just had gotten baptized and were getting all the attention.

i met with my elders and told them i could not justify carrying on as a jw.
i went and got my high school qualifications and my higher education diploma (a levels with distinction) in just 12 months.

I personally think what they did was very brave. The one thing is that I would change the website to be jwfacts.com
Other than that, these people are very brave in publicly denouncing the JW's. However, as can be seen clearly in the video, no one gives a flying .... to what either the Latham's or the JW's have to say...
So really, this was to help the JW's... maybe...

I am currently reading his book. He quotes from Furulli, so I really have doubts about his book.

Gotta hand it to the JW's... Brilliant at PR... If he only saw the video... He'd probably be disgusted at what he, in his ignorance, wrote.

A simple mental exercise can calm many of their fears...
by ILoveTTATT inso one of my "closet apostate" friends is a young girl.
she's only in her mid teens, and knows ttatt... but sometimes she holds back because of the fear... the crazy amount of fear... she reads a lot of conspiracy theory/illuminati stuff... so that doesn't help.
so she said "so many prophecies are being fulfilled!".

So she said "so many prophecies are being fulfilled!"
And I was like... "really??? like... ???"
Then when I debunked two of them, I had the idea of pretending it was 1974...
We reviewed all the things that the WT said about 1975, and we pretended like she was 18 in 1969, when the infamous Awake "you will never grow old" article appeared.
Then, (and here's the important part), we reviewed what happened in the world in the 1970's... the Watchtower had plenty of sh!t to scare people with...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970s
Thankfully, the Wikipedia article also showed the good things of the 1970's... like MRI's, cell phones, in-vitro fertilization, couple of lunar landings... etc..
And, of course... the conclusion was that... the world goes through many tragedies and trials... but generally always survives... and that, if the JW's living back then would have listened to the WT, they wouldn't have LIVED... they would have been DEAD although they were alive... losing out on opportunities and LIFE!!
So people... enjoy your life. Be good to others. That's about it...

Bizarre comment about jw.org at SAD
by sir82 inrecently attended a sad.. bethel speaker was gushing about the wt's embrace of new technology, in the part of his talk warning about "apostate" web sites.. a loose summary of his comments:.
"and the brothers at headquarters have made it very safe for you to go to our website.
in fact, the brothers talked to the folks at google, and they made a special arrangement so that when you type in 'j w period' into the google search engine, it automatically shows you the jw.org website.
