  Don't play their game with them. It's THEIR game not yours. Walk away. Be free. Be happy.

  An important message from a PRACTICING Jehovah's witness

  by Sparks in

  2. friends

  hi, i am also a practicing jehovah's witness and very proud of it,to say the very-very least..!

  i am a middle-aged man with many decades of being a witness of jehovah god in england.. this important letter is personally to you, just as many of the bible's 88 letters are to be taken personal by you the reader.

  i am writing to you to urge you to take stock of your life, think what your future holds for you.

  So happy to not be that egotistical and blind anymore. Thanks for reinforcing my decision to get away the cult Sparks. Hope you find your way out too.

  Telephone Conversations Today with 2 Elders Re: Shunning - Or Not?

  my alcoholic and aged jw mother is now extremely ill and is being cared for in every respect by my non-jw brother.

  3 sisters visited him yesterday and were adamant.

  that i (disassociated and shunned by her for nearly 3 years) was able to 'visit her any time' and that ' there was nothing to stop me seeing her' as long as i. didn't discuss spiritual things with her.

  GREAT SONG FOR THOSE OF US STRUGGLING TO LEAVE THE JW CULT!

  by ADJUSTMENTS in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is a song by lauren hill she had family ties to the jw cult, so it is very touching and moving, she even gets choked up in the middle of the song.

  i like to share this song with new ones or old ones and those who have heard it before every now and again, it so refreshing and hopefull!

  enjoy it!!!.

  bibl3thumper has posted a youtube of the celebrations that took place for german delegates.

  it's hard to believe that they are now using the kingdom hall to sing pop songs and for dancing.

  Assembly News Photo

  by snare&racket in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this photograph from a news site is a succinct summary of a life in wt's hands....... look at their faces, it says it all.. also, note the watchtower pr machine in action, explaining that it brings 4 million dollars to the location.

  (10,000 x 400 dollars) clearly a watchtower statistic, where is the care and interest for members who are struggling so much, with new videos encouraging less career activity, less work commitments, at an all time economic low for our generation.. http://www.standard-freeholder.com/2014/06/15/thousands-attend-watchtower-convention-in-cornwall.

  father: "i'm a wt 'yes' man and proud of it!

  2. entertainment

  as kid i remember a break of 15 minutes between the public talk and the wt study.

  all the new ones and "weak" ones ran out to smoke.

  loved to see the attendant round them up to come back in when the droning began again.
