groups of two when I was voicing my dissenting views , my jc comprised of 5 over 3 weekends including a separate group of four with the appeal plus the 2 original snitches were used to give witness testimonies in the original jc, quite heavy going I can tell you, still remember it very vividly it was late 1992 but its a lifetime away now.

Did you ever have a discussion with an apostate that helped your journey out.
by jwfacts inthere seems to be a number of different ways that apostates try to get jehovah's witnesses realise they do not have the truth, ranging from subtle comments to aggressive attacks.
do you have any that looking back helped you finally leave.
some of the methods include:.

I was directed to a local apostate who supplied we with a lot of reading material which I was very grateful for, plenty of books and back editions of Comments From the Friends and Free Minds, we'd speak very regularly although we never really had any common religious standpoint, we was a member of a Bible Student group, I hear he is now a Mormon, we did't keep in contact though but I'm eternally grateful to him for his vast resource collection, my mind was 99% made up when I began my fade and I'd never spoke to anyone.

The New terroists That The World have To Confront What is the Answer ?
by smiddy inthis latest attack in manchester u.k. targeting a venue attended by mainly children and teenagers who go to a concert by their favorite singer and then to be attacked by a terroist has to be the last straw... surely ?
22 dead at last count mainly young girls enjoying a concert of their favourite singer ?
and at least 50 others suffering injuries ?.

I think we have to seriously look at some sort of banning of Islam in our westernised civilised world namely Europe , first and full most banning it in the jails in the UK where these petty criminals are coming out as radicalised Muslims, talk about the benefit of hindsight but how long has this been predicted, Islam needs a huge reforming, how many of these bastards are "known to the security services" FFS? the future in the UK looks very worrying indeed , we could be hitting a campaign of relentless attacks in the coming year, so far this year we have had two here in the UK how many more?

Smiddy I recall 1986 was The International Year of Peace , I was never sure if they took it particularly seriously or not, not that I care or that it means anything

I'm sure his heart isnt in it, my final bible reading as a kid (I had a tantrum that I wouldn't do any more at a stupidly young age)which saw me leaning on both elbows on the lectern my hands cupped in my face,and mumbling down to the floor for the entire talk, and they say the TMS makes you excellent at public speaking!

I think one comes to the stage where you have to let it go, I generally dont really bother these days, the last quite pleasant chat I had with them was quite uncontroversial, I focused on the flood a bit of science and bid them a good day, The ARC/UN membership/The Russian ban makes such little impact on them because they are so controlled what information is fed to them and they wont really have any idea what you are talking about, I feel so little concern about them now, almost 25 years out, both parents dead and one sister still remaining in, they make so little difference in my life now.

it was given as a morning worship rant.
sanderson sports his usual smirk.. he opens up quoting matthew 10:22, 23 about persecution.

be interesting to see how many inactive jw's are really returning back ? they are so prone to wildly exaggerating, blatantly lying, crating urban myths etc, Russia's poor growth figures in recent years are quite surprising, they clearly haven't grasp what the word apathy really means, I'd say a mere few dozen probably crawled out from the woodwork and they will just as quickly crawl back in.
