EX JW’s unite…stay strong and be independant….

Cheers Dave

I remember someone had sent us some information in the mail about leaving the JW organization, I dont know how or who but I was blamed for it because I had been on the internet, I dont understand how this logic worked in my mothers head, but she seemed to think I had something to do with it and she started telling me all kinds of things.

This is how I saw a lot of parents treating their children, abusing them verbally, setting unrealistic expectations, there was a lot of superficiality in our congregation, I remember my self esteem and confidence being completely torn because none of the young guys there were interested in me. I remember being depressed all of those years and never knowing why.

After finally educating myself in other religions and feeling like my eyes were opened I stopped attending, I had to move out of my house, eventually moving back in with my fathers help, I started to feel happy again, I was social with friends and I quickly gain confidence when “worldly” guys started asking me out. I never slept around and I ended up marrying a guy that has been amazing to me. I now hear stories of other JWs I grew up with that are getting divorced (I thought this was EXTREMELY bad in the organization?)others that are cheating on their spouses with other members, and just a bunch of bad things coming out of our congregation.

I now feel that a majority of my childhood was taken from me, I didnt get the interactions that others did, my way of thinking had been chosen for me, and every time I see something on tv about cults, this religion is all i can think of. I hope to never ever set foot in a kingdom hall again, and never ever have my children be forced to do something they don’t want to do. Open mindedness and free will is all I will preach to them.

I see you have done your reseach and you know a lot about JW than God, Yes it so happened that some of the prophecies that were said in the past by JW founder were not true due to lack of reseach or should i say lack of proper bible reseach, 1 thing i like about JW is the fact that when they have made a mistake it is with full responsibility that they acknowledge their mistake and rectify it.

I was born a JW and there was a time when i really believed that being a JW was a big embarrasement to the community and big joke to other people, until I got a highlight of my life, if it wasnt for the witnesses I would have probebly have been dead by now, the love that JW people have it so deep that every1 feels secure around them, it is with no doubt that these people are lead by non other than the holy spirit from Jehovah GOD,

They do thorough reseach and when ever an error was made, believe you me no other religion is big enough to acknowledge its wrong,

So go ahead and critisize but it is very clear to me that in your decision making a Witness in you always pop up no matter how hard you may try to bring it down and deny it, once you learn the truth it is and still going to be defficult to erase it out of your system, you can go ahead and tell yourselves that you are capable of making your own decision, maybe you are but the fact remains you had the bible influence and that will always affect your decision making in life no matter how hard you deny it, so who are you trying to fool, stop the foolishness and return to GOD and save yourselves a huge embarassement, I am not going to say that you have been lead by Satan to critisize Jehovah’s people because he scoops low but not as low as you guys, he is just watching you all and probebly thinking, he can never use such confused minds, Guys really your reasoning is really poor, it is so sad!!! I am not trying to be cheecky but simply calling a spate a spate…

you should be aware, that in recent years almost the ENTIRE recruitment strategy has been aimed at those who are young, confused and have had little or no previous religious identity.

this is because it will make you more vulnerable.

now, should we all behave in a moral responsible way?
yes.
is being a jehovah;w witness the only way to do that?
hell no.

and when they say “oh sure, there are good people out there, but are they living in harmony with jehovahs law and organisation?”
THAT is “CODE” for “us vs them”

so, in your “studies” have you had an adequite explanation of why it is jehovah’s truth keeps lying?
was it truth or a hoax that c.t. russel, based on pyramidology, said that jehoavh said the world would end in 1914?
was it truth or a hoax that j.f. rutherford said th ersssurection would occur in 1925?
did jehovah ever actually “tell” the society this- or were they hoaxing? or simply delusional?

i dare you to tell them you came here, to this site. go ahead, and pay CLOSE attention to thier faces-thier tone and thier rhetoric when you do.

tell them you sought out and engaged an ‘apostate’ site- and go ahead and say it was to “defend the truth”.
see what happens. see how nice they are after that.
and when they tell you to NEVER do it again (they will) what will THEY think if, as you say,no one at the kingdom hall forces you to do anything, if you go ahead and continue to engage us.

you see, we aren’t attacking the individual, we are defending ourselves from group-think and authoritarian baloney.
you don’t need them. they are making it up. all of it. it’s all a hoax. and it pains us to see people fall into it.

“..you know it’s not true”- hahahahaha!

the biggest difference between the “aposate” and the jw’s is that we WELCOME the scrutiny. WE have nothing to hide! WE don’t make outrageous claims about why god is telling us this or that. WE don’t make false prophecies, or tell people to let children die for lack of blood!

thats them. THEY demand lock-step obediance at every level.
THEY lie.
THEY make false prophecies.
THEY advocate wasting your life waiting for celestial events tht-will-never-happen.

please, if they have the truth, then you have nothing to lose by further research by exjws. prove US wrong.
