Demon Stories

by humblepotato in

so we all know that "crazy" brother or sister.

every kingdom hall has one.

they give the best comments (from a hilarious perspective), have experiences with the "demons", but most importantly, they are on about 10 deifferent kinds of medications.

HeyThere

I have heard some. Such weird stuff. But I have heard it from both jws and from another person who went to a methodist church...

The methodist one: she went to mothers home and had little demons chasing her around the house. So that is why she had sex with the neighbor in the closet. Those demons made her do it. 😲 she was asking for prayers to free her from those demons. So not just weird jw stories but I'm sure you see why this young woman would be claiming a little demon action 😒

Now for the jw ones, and this was told to me by the sister I studied with me (and my kid wtf!!)

She apparently purchased earrings from a garage sale. The day she purchased them she started feeling sick, and the next day was violently sick. She couldn't figure out what was wrong but after a few days she threw out the earrings. Within a couple days she was back to normal. 😯 yep, that was demons...not the flu, or possibly even food poisoning... Nope folks it had to be demons...in the earrings 😨

And then of course, some of you may recall, my husband threw out my Crisis of Conscience book because *gasp* it could bring demons into our home!!!!😈

Is it possible to use this thread to compile watchtowers Armageddon illustrations

by jambon1 in

i was informed today by a jw that the watchtower doesn't use images and propaganda to instil fear.

i would really like to see a compilation of all their armageddon illustrations.

maybe a thread or web page already exists that had this content.. the one i am really wanting is the most recent picture of the witnesses in the basement during the tribulation.. this will be a massive help so thank you..

HeyThere

This is a great thread. Seeing these pictures in one spot is quite eye opening. What a disgusting cult. All the poor babies raised seeing this all the time. Such psychological and emotional bullying. Yikes.

when the rnwt was released, we were invited to go to the local assembly hall.. there was a sister right next to me and she started bragging that it was her 8th year in an annual meeting.

(typical thing, all spiritual).

when was time to sing, i listened to her beautiful voice.

HeyThere

Stuckinarut...omg that is wonderful!! If I have to step foot in the hall again I am so going to do that. 😅

The JW religion has just cost me my marriage & my family life

by jambon1 in

jw
friends

after leaving the organisation 10 years ago i fought with everything i had to stay in my marriage and with my three children.

after a tumultuous number of years trying to maintain a happy family life while living in a divided home, it's finally over.

the religion is single handedly responsible for destroying my marriage and my family.

HeyThere

So sorry. I am also in a divided marriage and not sure if it will survive. But you will survive. Be strong.
