With This One Thought, You Become An XJW (page 4)

Nosferatu

My thought was "I hate my life. I need to fix it". The JWs were the main source for all my unhappiness.

I just hated that idea that a loving God will KILL the human race even the small children in order that the: MOST KIND, PERFECT, GOOD LOOKING, LOYAL TO GOD, HIGH MORAL STANDARTS, THE BEST PEOPLE EVER LIVED ON EARTH, CLEAN JW'S INHERIT THE EARTH!!!

Mr. Kim

Metatron,

Good post. Wonder how many R&F admit to any thought that does not come from the Society?

Wish I could post my thoughts.......But then, who really is ready?

I've had a few defining moments, but I'd have to say that 9/11 spoke volumes for me. I thought to myself, why would a loving God allow that situation to happen? But wait, 9/11 would be nothing compared to what God would do to most of mankind at Armageddon. My thoughts went back to the "JW Porn" pics from the book of bible stories, paradise books and watchtowers showing men, women, children and pets being destroyed and buildings falling over them while JW's were depicted as downright giddy over being able to walk into the new system. What also spoke volumes was that JW's were opportunistic in using a national tragedy in order to peddle books and magazines, and I thought that that was DEMENTED AS HELL.

Simple logic like that which you used above precedes metatron's comment "what was I thinking?"

LOVING GOD + mercilessly kills children of "worldly people" simply because they are not JW's = does this make ANY sense whatsoever?

It is when one realizes that the JW mindset and WT doctrine is so outrageously flawed so as to be laughable that a person then reaches the stage metatron spoke of. What varies is the catalyst which leads to it.

Unloving congregations? Generation doctrine? Blood issue? Pedophiles within the organization shielded to protect the image of the corporation?

Whatever it may take for an individual to raise doubts... they THEN wonder "what was I thinking?" and proceed to make an exit.

Honestly, I thought that, since I disliked it so much, it must be right somehow. Like there had to be some "suffering" involved.

That is how an elder once explained to me the reason behind the door to door to work. LOL

607BCE did it for me!

I thought: "What a load of Constipationally Ridiculous Antiquated Postulation" ……and I was gone!

I never thought of it that way but I did say that to myself. with a lot of other questions. that took me to the internet as no elder could answer my questions. and I got sick and tired of wait on ja. cripe how many people have died waiting on ja. jacrap. I will do it my self or it will never get done.

I got a new attitude!

I have many thoughts on this subject. But, did you guys ever remember sitting in a book study and reading a question that didn't fit the reading material. I did. And I remember looking around, discretely, and wondering why everybody else was getting it, when I wasn't. I think even way back then, I was subconsciously questioning. I didn't ever openly question this though, because then I would have been considered weak even though I was a auxilliary pioneer.

When I did leave in the mid-80's I remember telling several people back then. The organization has run out of time relating to the generation that would see the end. I would tell them do the math. At that point I didn't care what happened I just wanted out (I disassociated myself and moved).

There were several reasons I got the heck out of there! The hypocrisy and the ranking (do you guys remember how the district overseers and circuit overseers got special parking and dining room privileges. What a crock!
