  Hello and my exit story from WTS

  by free2Bme13 in

  2. experiences

  i thought it was fitting for me to share my freedom from the witnesses story on independence day weekend.. i dont have any secret info, just experiences that happened to me and started to open my eyes.. i was a third generation, raised in the truth kid who was never supposed to be born, and then never supposed to graduate high school.

  ive now been out of high school longer than i was in school.. the beginning of the end started a little less than a decade ago.

  i was late 20s at the time.

  after lunch i will be the guy nail gunning the plywood letters to the top part of the stage.

  so when i get to the word truth, i am going to mutter "bullshit, bullshit, bullshit....etc" the whole time i'm nailing the letters, obviously very quietly to myself.

  ;-) that way when i am listening to the bs tomorrow, i can smile to myself knowing the letters have been properly christened!

  hello, lately in our local newspaper i've noticed a weekly column that is written by a current elder.

  when i left 6 years ago he was the po.

  and for some added background info , if he saw someone who was df'ed or "spiritually weak" he would go out of his way, and do his best to avoid them.

  Will Jehovah's Witnesses ever follow the lead of Roman Catholics in New York and encourage members to report child sex abuse to police?

  by Sol Reform in

  and will they copy catholics by banning all child molesters from serving in kingdom halls?.

  a spokesman for dolan (cardinal timothy dolan, head of the u.s. conference of catholic bishops ) said in an e-mail that the archdiocese of new york has had a policy for years that encourages those with allegations of abuse to report them to civil authorities, and that here are no known abusers serving in the dioceses.

  it is still a wonderful discovery and pleasant surprise to continually keep finding that there are some awesomely *good* people out there in the "world"!.

  it's such a neat thing, this (slow, yet very rewarding!

  ) process of making new, non-jw friends.... i recently had my first meal at the home of one of these new wonderful people we've just met and i just must share this!

  When all seems ok....

  2. child-abuse

  many of you know what has been transpiring with my daughter and the abuse she suffered for years at the hands of a congregation elder.

  the abuser is still incarcerated awaiting trial.. today she had a substitute teacher that reminded her of the abuser.

  there was a confrontation and she had a breakdown.
