being in a mind control cult and having been indoctrinated for many years severely suppresses what we really are or realizing our full potential, it causes one to lose track of him/herself.

being told what to hate, who to shun, to please the corporation sock puppet jehovah can really cause one to put many of ones natural desires and talents in ones shadow, this can lead to depression because we are living the our life with the uniform cult personality.

maturing in this type of cult indoctrination will usually lead to all types of psychic suffering because we are not living true to our dna but a much more inferior cult made personality.

Wow Brokeback, great you tube ! Thanks for posting it. I'm surprised no one commented on this yet. I love the study of psychology and have read several of Frederick Perl's books and watched his seminars which involve assisting people to live in the here and now in order to actualize their lives and tap into their potentials as human beings.

I agree with most everything in this you tube. I remember an old quote that went something like this " The successful man does what the unsuccessful man doesn't want to do. " Not sure who wrote that ; but it's true many times in life. As EX-Jw's ( I've been out 14 years ) it takes a lot of effort to re-build our self esteem because we had the WT Society busy tearing down every vestige of self esteem and self respect we had as humans for years. We were told we were " imperfect sinners " or " inherited this alleged " sin " from Adam & Eve " thus there was supposedly nothing we could ever do to be " worthy " of receiving God's " undeserved kindness " . WTF is " undeserved kindness " anyway ? what a demeaning term when you think about it ! Like we don't DESERVE to have kindness given to us ? I say bullshit ! We ALL deserve dignity and respect no matter what the freaking WT Society or Bible told us ! A crock of shit I say. The way we were " trained " or put down.

That's why it's so important for us EX-JW's to re-invent ourselves into finding WHO and WHAT the real us are personally - and to fulfill our dreams and potentials ! Of course some people have chemical depression that they need medication for- I get that and understand that- however in spite of that we all can take proactive measures to pursue our interests and dreams in this life we have in the here and now.

Personally I have found the pursuing of playing music and writing music and songs to be my therapy and joy in life. As well as relationships with my wife, son, and friends. But the freedom of expression I feel while trying to find really cool chords on the guitar, banjo, or mandolin to express emotion and thoughts through music and lyrics is a joy I feel that I will never get tired of and I will pursue the rest of my life ! Music is a healing in and of itself, and I take great joy and pride in it and what I'm accomplishing in my life in trying to share it with others. It's a " feel good " process all the way around !

Thanks for this cool thread Brokeback and I hope you get even more comments and replies on it ! Peace out bro, Mr. Flipper

This is a start. I hope the authorities investigate the hell out of JW child abuse crimes not only in England and Wales - but also in the United States where these crimes are way too numerous. Wish the government here or FBI would put lots of interest into this ; but right now they've got their hands full just investigating another type of abuser who is allegedly, supposedly running this country. Go after these abusers England ! Publicize the hell out of it ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper

Who is going to make the earth a paradise?

by Sour Grapes in

when i was a jw elder and dreamed of living in paradise, i pictured all of the animals, beautiful people, perfect weather, welcoming back the dead and teaching them about god.

the only problem is to get to the point of making the earth a paradise first there will be around 8 billion bodies to bury.

then how are we going to dig through all of the rubble and collapsed buildings using what tools?

" Who is Going to Make Earth a Paradise " ?

There is no such thing, it's an illusion. At least living forever in a paradise. A lie. The " great crowd " as referred to in the opening thread are ALL going to die just like the billions of humans on the planet always have ; and always will.

Most of us only have 70 or 80 years to make the best of our short time here on earth in whatever pleasures, good times, and memories we can fulfill, we can possibly live in a beautiful area that reminds us of a " paradise " , or have a " paradise of freedom " in the way we think in our minds - but the Bible or JW version is totally false, made up to keep a carrot dangling in front of 8 million JW's so they won't leave the JW cult and to keep them locked into contributing money to the WT Society. A marketing ploy meant to control people's lives and money.

This is such a crock of shit to me as my now deceased JW parents spent 65 years of their lives being told they'd " never die " . Guess what ? Miracle of miracles - they died ! Just like billions and billions of other humans ALL died throughout history. In my opinion- these false hopes that the WT Society puts out are among some of the cruelest, twisted , criminal things they do to JW's. Just had to vent. This fucking cult destroyed my family that's still inside it. And some of them still desperately hang onto these beliefs fed by the WT Society money making marketing machines on their stupid websites

The strange case of Gerrit Losch

by Gorbatchov in

jw
friends

one of the recent molest cases had a signed declaration of gerrit losch, stating he has no relation with watchtower and that he has no control over watchtower and he does not answer to watchtower.. this month he is hosting the watchtower broadcasting show, on a watchtower media chanel, with a watchtower president starring as co-host, with statements, media and music that have intellectual ownership and copyright by watchtower.. gerrit is asking on broadcasting for respect for “the slave”, just like jehova and jesus respect “the slave” and will even reward them.. are the writers of the statement too stupid to see the correlation between teaching and practicing?.

these man are proven liars.. how can hold this firewall stand?

it’s so thin.. a judge can see this mismach isn’t it??.

Gerrit Losch- Liar, liar - pants on fire ! He's been hanging out with the Donald Trump too much
