What I Learned in the Peace Corps in Africa: Trump Is Right

by pseudoxristos in

jw
friends

my first thought when seeing this headline was; "how could trump be right?

" even though i am registered as a republican, i don't really care for trump.

after reading the article, i still don't care for trump, but i had never considered many of the points brought out by the article.. january 17, 2018. what i learned in the peace corps in africa: trump is right.

pseudo very nice experience you gave on your peace corps days. But your conclusion is not what people of the left think at least the ones I know. We do not want open borders we want better enforcement of our borders not what we have now. Yes they don't want a wall because it's a ridiculously idea and Mexico will never pay for it. I am a white guy and I don't resent white people and again all those I know who are of the left are white and I have never heard them say they resent white people. Most of there ancestors came from one of those other white country's throughout the world. They don't hate American they hate those who are making America into a fascist country were only white people have rights. How in the hell does the left resent American achievement. They are the ones that cherish scientific achievement and for most love God and country.

I agree we don't need to prove we are not racist but we do need to show we are not by are words and actions. Just like the jw cult that demonize everyone in the world I have found in the world of politics on both sides have a problem with demonizing the other party. I have found by talking and knowing people on both sides they are all decent people who want mostly peace and happiness. Kindness brings people together. Hatred divides. My two cents. Take care.

Did your children help you wake up?

by Zyron in

jw
friends

what help me wake up, (still pimo) in addition to lingering doubts throughout most of my life, and i'm in my late 50s, was the questioning from my children when they became teenagers.

i could not honestly defend the origins of the jws, prohibition of birthdays and other celebrations; especially when you realise that the whole belief system is/was based on crazy teachings of a businessman.. the real kicker is when you have a religion that has to produce its own bible to support its beliefs, that's when i knew the whole religion is an expensive and cleverly marketed belief system.

like most religions.. glad to say none of my children want anything to do with jws and two of them don't believe in god.

Still Totally ADD

Hey Desirous I resemble that comment! Just kidding. No our children was no help in making us wakeup though our oldest son stop going to meetings for long time. He even told me he felt it was not the truth. But when we made it known we was leaving both of our boys was OK with it until their wives learned of it. That is when the shunning began. By both of them. The power of the cult is strong with those wives. Still Totally ADD

Thank you, George Couch!

by charonsdog in

i just thought i'd share this story from my past.. back in the 80s i remember the big problem seemed to be about music.

(today, it's tight pants, i guess) the organization, society, whatever they were calling themselves, were always going on about the music we listened to.

disco, heavy metal, the whole "backwards masking" thing...couldn't escape hearing or reading about how satan was corrupting us unless we were listening to kingdom melodies or elevator music.. i was assigned to wtf in the late 80s and remember one of the articles stating that "young people know that the rhythm of rock music is the rhythm of sexual intercourse.

Still Totally ADD

Ah yes the good old days. Dark side of the moon by Pink Floyd something demonic about the side of the moon we can't see. How about Stair Way To Heaven by Led Zeppelin? Play the song backwards it says worship Satan. Maybe all of us who did listen to Rock n Roll back in our youth was influence by the devil and that made us leave the cult. LOL Yes I see it now sex, drugs and Rock n Roll made us apostates because that is want we always wanted to do. Saint George was right. What else explains why we are here. Yeah right. Thank you Pink Floyd. Still Totally ADD

Sorry Pale Emperor for all this stress you and your brother are going through. I have no advice but I know you will always do the right thing concerning your brother. You know what the cult is all about and this is your super power over those who are still trap in that cult. You have already demonstrated your self control and kindness in helping your brother from past post and I feel positive you will figure this all out. Take care of yourself we will be thinking of you.

Welcome Mathew. I was what you call a born-in. Served as a elder for 25 years. Left with my wife in 2011 at the age of 56. What everyone has said is the truth and I cannot add anything else to it. Please do your research. Take care and good luck to you. Still Totally ADD

Suing the Org

by dantoole87 in

i believe that i have a good cause to sue the organization.

but i know that they have crafted themselves a legal loophole infinite loop.

so i was thinking that i should just sue the congregation that i know fucked me over.

Still Totally ADD

This may help. After 5 years or so the elders are instructed to destory pub. cards in there files. This may have changed since I was a elders. Hope this helps. Still Totally ADD

Satanic Voodoo & the 2016 Special Convention in Puerto Rico

by Calebs Airplane in

https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5635268717576192/puerto-rico-special-convention-2016-video.

voodoo originated in haiti during the french colonial period.

it was based on a tribal religion somewhere in west africa (possibly the kingdom of dahomey) and was brought to haiti by african slaves in the 17th century.

Still Totally ADD

My parents always told me all music is satanic except the kingdom songs. It was their way to keep me from listening to rock n roll. It didn't work. Lol. Still Totally ADD
