Korean News : CoC in Korean

by AntiEntropy in

jw

hi bros.. after my father's publishing his book, "15 questions after 40 years of jw" , many ex-jw bros in korea became motivated to rush to the coc korean project.

however any secular project needs a fund eventhough it's a not-for-profit.

fortunately, a bunch of bros decided to donate generously $300~$7,000 to this unprofitable business.

Stealth what you suggest smacks of complete common sense and seems very logical, unfortunately common sense and logic has been lost in this entire debacle

Fade question: New Cong or stay.

by Darkknight757 in

i have a question with regard to fading.

the wife and i have plans to move to another hall and continue our fade from the organization.

we are already missing quite a few meetings and we are not reporting time.

I'd stay where you are, the new cong could have a very young set of elders very proactive and efficient, and a lot bears on what the CO is like and have either congs got a CO visit coming up? I'd stay where you are and just start the fade ASAP.

KateWild I wouldn't bother until 06/052017, because nothing is going to happen in the meantime,

Hadriel when someone makes a subjective opinion on this subject which we all have a right to do, this just an internet forum you seem very quick to jump on people with insults and name calling,something I've come to expect from you and all the more fuel to the jw's who could be lurking here laughing at us and reinforcing the their views on us, why dont you calm down?

what sort of reactions have you gotten when talking to other jw when telling them the "truth about the truth"?

by AmIright in

its funny ive read some stories on here about how they have become so infuriated by what logic dictates as being true and their own denying of it because it completely screws up their belief and shows how hypocritical it is xd some look like a nuclear reactor about to blow xd.

share you experiences here :) .

a mixture of emotions, from my wife it was hysteria,screams, fingers in the ears, similar from my mum, she was a very angry person most of my life anyway, my father was generally open to discussions but the conclusions were the usual patronising ridicule about my sources etc and he would hint that I'd had the wool pulled over my eyes by Satan and the evil apostates, my dealings in the locality have gone as far as they can now as they know me, a couple of the hardcore weekly workers on the cart I leave well alone, the other few are very friendly but I've gone as far as I can in speaking with doctrine and scandal if I was to push it any further they'd simply shun me, I have one sister who is as hard nosed as you can possible get but recently we had a text exchange which ended amicably. My only chances are when I see newbies on the cart work and I introduce myself and we get stuck into the usual subjects, ARC, UN membership etc.

Sanderson Patronises Ex-Bethelites

by konceptual99 in

don't normally waste time watching these but this one caught my eye as it was obvious what the subject matter would be about..... http://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodprogramsevents/pub-jwbmw_201604_2_video.

mark sanderson: accept change with faith and confidence (heb.

basically sanderson is giving a pep talk to all those that have new assignments changed.

in that recent video featuring that goon from the British branch relating another bullshit blessing from jeehoovah and their purchase of a contaminated shit hole there was a section showing their transport dept and I was certainly surprised with the amount of minibuses they have use of, clearly being used to pick up day workers from local stations, they could easily survive this way and rid the branch of residential workers completely.

Need way more sex in a relationship and still serve Jehovah

by lovestarved in

i have been disfellowshipped twice, and currently am- both times for sex.

i have a high need for sex in my relationship, and after 3 marriages, keep not finding that need in the other person.

so, i end up going out of the organization looking for it.

jookbeard

In think you could be be looking for the proverbial pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, a nymphomaniac zealous submissive sister with spiritual goals LOL, I dont see you ever finding it or if you do you will be looking a ling time. Join a dating site there is even one for jw's or find out the real truth about the truth that your leaders dont want you to hear, over a 100 years of failed prophecies,false doctrines,mounting child abuse court cases, the Australian Royal Commission enquiry, United Nations membership , the organization is a sinking ship. I'd get out if you have any sense, or your high sex drive and sexual frustrations will get the better of you.

Punk, using the word to "boy" to people of ethnic origin in the UK is very much an insult and one of the very worst, and I have experience of it,my ex boss is Indian and I heard him almost explode when he was called a "boy" one time. Sickprick LOL!

The Kingdom Hall

by TheLiberator in

i know i have mentioned this on other posts.

as a born-in, i was obsessed with the watchtower.

it was god's organization.

its a gradual awakening and everyone reacts differently, myself I found an huge sense of joy,relief about finding TTATT, but I was having to deal with a different set of problems in regards to a failing marriage,unemployment( I did find good employment very shortly after we separated) moving away and eventually divorce , I really did hit rock bottom during the last year together as I watched it all fall apart, I simply was unable to cope, but the sense of starting out again after I'd moved away and I found a new purpose in life, a renewed energy, life turned around so quickly and so much for the better, but we leave wounded by it we take away scars to our graves after investing so much time,emotion and energy in it. I can really understand the deep rooted mental health problems that people develop;anxiety/panic attacks,depression,PTSD etc but time is a wonderful healer, we do move on. Looking back it all seems so ridiculous that we were sucked into this scam but the amazing thing I've found is being able to help others escape from them and wake up. Look forward to the rest of your life TheLiberator!
