Some can, for some it takes time, and for some they have found a home here, wheather that is not getting over it is not really the issue, are they content being here even after year or years of posting, some remain to help others they feel are at the point they were when they were told to get over it.

Who else is tired of the Just Get Over It threads?
by sass_my_frass ini have started this thread so that every time i see a new one i can point out how old that idea is.
congratulations.
it's great that you have obviously been able to get out without being harmed in some way - really, i'm happy for you.

I have seen prayers read at district convention!
by oompa inyes, i like to gaze around during prayers, especially big ones.
twice now i have seen the chairman or concluding speaker finish the song, approach the speaker stand, say "let's approach god in prayer," and at the last second pull out a index card size of paper with writing on it.
he kind of cups his hand over as he lays in on top of the song book.

Sorry but I don't believe this, could have been something else going on, but never seen or heard of this in any congregations I have ever attended over many many years.
Should be reported as unexceptable if it happened.

Trying to date in the organization...gossipers ruining relationships
by B_Deserter injehovah's witnesses are some of the worst gossipers i've ever encountered, especially when it comes to the dating habits of those in the congregation.
but, that's not really a surprise to most of us.
this story, however, makes me just shake my head and wonder why this guy doesn't question stuff.. there's a sister in my brother's hall that recently got a divorce.

not just gossipers and back biters but meddlers in youre personal life, and they think in the negative about someone and always suspecting the worse.

Child Baptisims Really Pissing Me Off. Linked to DF's

it kills me.

They should be enjoying their childhood and thats what they are children, physically they may be sexually old enough but they are not emotionally old enough to make huge steps like these especially with the dire consequences, like being DF or losing youre family because you made a normal mistake any kid would make but the penelty was osticisation.
I think guys should be at least 25 and girls 21.

They have built heaps new KH past few years and they estimate another 1300 to go up in the next few years. The increase has been a large increase in Africa.
There are many brothers voluteering for the quick builds and KH are going up every day.

Sisters would not want me around, and they would tell me that it would change (it only got worse), and they told me to just meet other men (itself a reason for me to go apostate).
Sorry but I don't understand what you mean by this. what do you mean they told you to meet other men? strange

Did you lead a double life as a JW? Are you leading a double life still?
by Bumble Bee inas a jw, alot of us lead double lives.
i know i did.. in talking about our situations with my sister in law, realized that i now lead a double life as a "fader"!!!
my husband and i are "out" of the religion (my brother, sister in law and the kids too) but for the sake of family, they think we are still "in" although they know we are not active.

Though not doing anything unscriptual as such, it is really being on here, but to me it isn't it is like I am a paradox. But it is getting harder, like the joy is gone and its hard to go to all the meetings, I have found it has also effected my health, the worry about being found out that I don't agree with the GB.
I am really fond of some in my congregation and know they are really honest sweet people that love Jehovah, and they would see things unfair but that prod along only because they love Jehovah, and there are others you know that are organizational people that love the power, and anything they do underhanded is because of the protection of the congregation.
I just feel that the levee will have to eventually break and we will find a seperation between those that are their for Jehovah and cant stand the hyprocy and others that are there in idolatry for the org. Time will tell, but I hope something happens soon to many are hurting and its ruining lives and families.

It is a male dominated, chavenistic religion, and they have no desire to give any women pleasure, they would have their clitoris taken out, and they can still be vigins, so the women would have no sexual desire, only desire to be loved and respected and that to is only for the male but by force and demand.

They cant give knew light, they have to keep intigue somehow, like this only for us WT, we are special and it is close to the end so something might pop up just for us and maybe their will be new light or something for us.
Its all crap and it is to keep the r/f interested because they have nothing more to offer spiritually.

THOSE WHO ARENT JEHOVAH WITNESSES
by the333 inthose who aren't in the truth i feel much pity for you.
all of you are filled with much hatred and anger that all you can do is blast out of your stupid mouths horrible things about the one true religion.
i feel sorry for you that you will not have ever lasting life.

Let you're utterences be seasoned with salt. If you have pity for us on this forum you have a very self righteous way of showing it.
I wish you well and hope that you will be able to handle the fall of the WTS and understand that it is not the sheep but the GB that you should be sending hate mail to.
