I Need To Clarify One Thing (Christmas)

by mentallyfree31 in

i just wanted to clarify a small matter.

if you happen to see me driving around mississippi, you may notice that my car is squatted down in the back.

nothing is wrong with my car.

this afternoon i was just trolling the internet, and i went onto the official jw website just to look around.. well, some of the pictures / articles were quite amazing in their sheer ignorance of facts.. one of the most amazing ones for me, (it actually made me laugh out loud while shaking my head in disbelief) is titled: .

have you ever wondered .

.how should a christian view drunkenness?.

When I was in, my then friends and I used to go away for very drunken weekends. No one fessed up and most became elders etc, with 2 becoming co's. I don't think they ever had their "sin" dealt with, yet they would cut the nuts from anyone who sins!

Tell them you are suffering from a clinical depression and that when you are able you will be back....

My advice to you is to read... get a couple of so called apostate books, Crisis of Conscience being the first and main one by Ray Franz, then get a copy of another book called The Gentile Times Reconsidered by Carl Olaf Jonnsen. The Four Presidents wont hurt either. Get the other side of the borg coin and have some great reasons to stay away.

The friends and activities take care of themselves when the time is right. Your routine will change and you will find other things soon enough.

Embrace change, and be thankful that you blinkers fell off!

Watchtower BREAKDOWN on the highway to Paradise

all of us at one time or another have owned a automobile that was a real lemon!.

the car may have been shiny, stylish and totally cool-looking....the only problem was it was a piece of crap.. repair after repair after repair in a never ending spiral of maintenance kept it in the shop more than it was on the road!.

you may have really loved that car--it might have been a classic---but--it proved to be totally useless for basic transportation because:.

Excellent work...... Now how can I use it on those still trapped.....? Hmmm

yes... i should know better, but you know, i got to try.. it obviously gets under his skin and annoys him.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the support. This forum is always great for that. I know that I don't come in as often as I used to.

It is frustrating that after 5 1/2 years, that he can't just ease up a bit in his sanctimonium. What I find equally frustrating is that his wife's sister is disfellowshipped, and they do have some contact with her. Talk about double standards. I also know that he had to hide that fact that he was a JW and his wife even forged a wedding certificate so that it said nothing about being married in a K Hall for some legal stuff that would have went against them if it was known they were JW's. Lying by omission is still lying when it is done on purpose.

bye for now, take care.

Thanks for the support. I guess it would be nice if he were able to actually ask me about where we are at and why and be able to listen and hear the reasons without prejudice..... that is not the real world though, is it?

It obviously gets under his skin and annoys him. So I had another little try at some humor, but this time I must have crossed the line and he bit back... and bit back hard.

I will try to briefly set the scene...

In Australia, when you turn 50, the government arrange for you to have a free Bowel Screening. They send you a kit and you have to provide them with a "sample". In times past, my brother used to joke asking if I had received my "kit", implying thta I was aging...

So on Thursday I received my free kit. So I texted him and told him I had received his "present". Of course he had no idea what I was on about, and has no sense of humor in regard to me and my/our situation.

Here is his reply, with my reply back [which I must say was not my initial reaction!]

:

Dear Geevee,

I would like to ask that you now stop contacting me. When you left the truth, you left me and my family also. When I think that you personally have taken the truth away from three other people that I love and still do, I get upset still today. I always loved the fight that Mrs geevee would make to stay in the truth, but when you stopped supporting her, you really let her down. I think that it is time you moved on. I would love nothing more than to consider you my brother, however, without Jehovah, this cannot be. If you ever come back into the truth then we can talk.

Hi Teevee,

I am sorry, I didn’t mean to upset you like I have. I was trying to share something I thought was funny. You know that I understand your position only too well. It is not the first time you have expressed it. I will try not to contact you ever again, but even the watch tower allows for family emergency. So you will only hear from me if it is very extreme. I wish you and your family all the best for now and that future. Please know that we all have never been more happy.

Your brother,

Geevee

So, as you can see, I got to him a bit. By the same token I was very annoyed myself, to say the least. But, I did stir him, and he bit, and bit hard this time. I have included a link to my previous banter with him. He is still the same. This time pulling out what he thinks is a big card. My wife left the borg when she was 19, only to return a few years later in crisis and they all think that she came back because she want ed to, but at the time she felt that she needed her families support, so she went back. In a way I am happy she did, we wouldn't have met otherwise, but that was the only benefit.

Now we are all out. My two sons as well and are living life. Thanks for listening. I have now deleted everything out of my phone and made a public record .

They say they are not in a cult.

Ha Ha Just before we left, my wife recommended BAD SANTA to a family with a young daughter, she had not seen the movie, only the shorts and it looked pretty harmless!!! Then we watched it and loved it, but...... we like to watch it before christmas as part of our wind down and always laugh when Lauren Graham and Santa are in the car!

I have been at the movies when other JW's got up and left. They knoew we were there and expected us to follow them out, which we didn't!
