While awful, it should come as no surprise. We all know their rules. There's no time limit and not many technicalities to get around the rules. Some don't abide by them and many do.

The awful treatment of my disfellowshipped cousin still continues
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmy cousin was disfellowshipped twenty years ago when he was 18 years old.
he admitted to the congregation elders that he was fornicating with his ''wordly'' girlfriend.
the elders were following him and hiding in their cars to see what he was up to.

OK, We Need To Talk About The Crazy New Great Tribulation Video...
by pale.emperor inif you haven't seen it already, skip to 1:14:30 in lloyds video and watch the craziness unfold.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2y7f7-k5wo.
i'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this.. they're digging themselves a great hole here, in about 30 years time they'll be claiming this video was a mere "speculation" and that "some people" got the wrong ideas..

First, that's messed up if you're in it, and somewhat funny to look back on and remember that you once took so seriously.
Second, I couldn't help but notice that the white parents or whatever seem to always have darker complected kids. The magical unified borganization is so multi-cultural that even white parents are popping out darker kids. Obviously it may not be taken so seriously, but they way they force pictures to look a certain way always got to me. It's often so fake.
Third, they just gloss over that thousand year reign, going straight from Armageddon to after the final test. Yes, even if you make it through all of the awful and scary things they tell you about, you still have to endure 1000 years with Jehovah's Witnesses without losing your shit lest you be killed, and then you get to endure another awful scary horrifying time where Satan has his one last chance at you before finally you are good enough to live forever, of course as long as you don't screw up because we've already seen that perfection on earth to date is only batting .333, and that guy with the hit had to be the freaking son of god.
Good luck Johos! -

Out of the mouths of PIMOs
by dubstepped innew episode twenty five - daniel is a pimo jehovah's witness.
pimo – \pee-moe\ noun – short for physically in, mentally out, a person held captive to the cult of jehovah’s witnesses because although they are awake, to let others know would cost them everything they’ve ever known.
they stay in physically to keep spouses, family, friends, the only social structure that they’ve ever been allowed to have.

Glad you ladies and gents like what I put out there. If nobody listened whatsoever it still helps those that are interviewed to go through my process. And if it's not for everyone, that's cool too. We don't have to like the same things anymore. To each their own. From what I've heard if you have no detractors you're probably not doing much worthwhile or taking a stand so hate away if you want.

Well, then don't listen. It's a podcast that you can download and take with you. There's a pause button and you can resume. 60,000 people have made it through listening. Clearly it's not for you. Some like long form stories and getting to know people and their stories. Others like something short. I'm sure my podcast isn't the only venue where you can hear from someone. The guy took a risk and put himself out there. I give people whatever time they need to walk through their lives. I'm sure you've spent longer than that saying the same things over and over on this forum. You've probably spent longer playing the JW game at meetings you don't want to go to.
Take a chance. Or don't. I've put my time into it for those that want what I do. If you want shorter stories, by all means go out and do them.

New Episode Twenty Five - Daniel is a PIMO Jehovah's WitnessPIMO – \pee-moe\ noun – short for Physically In, Mentally Out, a person held captive to the cult of Jehovah’s Witnesses because although they are awake, to let others know would cost them everything they’ve ever known. They stay in physically to keep spouses, family, friends, the only social structure that they’ve ever been allowed to have. Sometimes they do this while plotting a “fade” where they gradually walk, sometimes even move, far away so as to escape. They know the truth but they cannot express it in an organization that refers to itself as “The Truth”.Daniel is PIMO. This is his story. Identities have been changed to protect the innocent.You can download and listen on your podcast app of choice (iTunes, Apple Podcast, Google Play, Podcast Republic, Podbean, etc.).

Is The Person Who Helped You “Get Into The Truth” Still Around?
by minimus ini helped, unfortunately, many people to become baptized jws.
recently, over the last few years, i saw many of my students who were still “ in the truth “ lament that i was no longer associating or active in the faith.. i do feel bad that i did such a good job that most of them still are in the cult.. are your teachers still around or did they wise up and leave the lord’s organization?

I assume my mom is still out there somewhere. She must be, as I got notification of some estate stuff and some checks from a wrongful death lawsuit (or something like that, when honestly his death was entirely his fault) from my dad's death. She's doing the suing, so she's still out there I guess.

"They are so keen, they need to be locked up for the first 6 months!"
by stuckinarut2 indo we all remember that expression when we were jws?.
someone new would "come into the truth", and be so enthusiastic and keen, that we would all joke about "locking them up for the first 6 months because they would preach to everyone".
jws thought that the passion for "learning the truth" was the issue.

Great point siar2! You see people wake up, get excited, lose all tact, and get shunned real fast. We have to give others time to see things for themselves too.

You joined the site, admitted that you may not be back much, bumped a 7 year old post, and made one post asking for someone to build you a website so that you can find an exjw lady. W-O-W.

There you go. I saw files and read through some but must have overlooked the Watchtower involvement. I see it there. Thanks. I'll pass it on.
