  moscow ban on jehovah's witnesses highlights confusion

  since running our original article on the activities ban placed on jehovah's witnesses in moscow, we have received a number of letters that clearly show confusion within the group itself.

  Does this mean Jehovah is closing the door for Moscow?

  I remember when Jehovah opened the door. I'm confused

  Just kidding!

  But this is the first time my wife didn't go

  She asked me to take her away for the weekend,

  we just have returned.....and I don't think we missed

  much.

  I just did! As some of you may know, my wife just left the org a few months ago. I think they are

  trying to reach her. It was her ex-PO and ex-book study conductor. I wouldn't let them in the door

  and I didn't want to sit and chat. 27 years of living as a Jw, I know how to play the game......

  Just going to keep them in the dark.

  I know from my own trials that I will NEVER be a part of any

  organization. But that's just how I feel. I grow up as a JW and

  feel I was worked over pretty good by them. Could never trust any

  group that much again. I have my own beliefs and feel even more

  spiritual than when I was a Witness.

  our daughter-in-law (who is a witness) has invited us (via email) to the memorial on april 4. she says it's not just for jws.

  is this true??

  i thought this gathering was exclusively for witnesses; and to partake....er....not partake of the bread and wine?

  A thought experiment

  by logansrun in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  have you ever stopped to consider that the best thing we can do for ourselves as recovering cultists is simply to move on?

  i know that is impossible for some, as they have deep connections with the organization due to family.

  but for many the best move is simply to refuse to let the jws occupy much of our time and energy -- mental, physical and emotional.

  I have moved way up the street past all of this......... 12 years and counting.........

  But I must say this forum has been of great help to my wife, who has just left the org. a few months ago.

  I can see much help here for those who have just left or are considering a departure from the JW's.

  Good Job Gang,

  Keepup the Good Work!

  with so many religions, and only one bible, why is the truth so hard to find?.

  The "Truth" of the JW's is their paradigm.....it is a model of reality.

  Note the word, model, it is not reality.
