This religion requires mandatory field serve us. Which means old people can no longer be Jehovah's Witnesses.
I think that kinda says it all about this religion. Everyone eventually becomes valueless to Botchtower.

Thank you for sharing your story Brian. It is good to read another successful exit story. You are living proof that one does not 'enter darkness' when one leaves Botchtower World. And congratulations on your new baby on the way. I guarantee you that Armageddon will not arrive even in your child's lifetime.

Index of acronyms : help for new forumers
by Mary J Blige inam finding a whole lot of acronyms that are really foreign to me and i now have an appreciation for what cult language sounds like to non-culters.
wondering please if you can post your definitions so i can get up to speed.
otherwise, as an indoctrinated ex-culter, i am inclined to create my own new light and swiftly it will be gospel.

Welcome MJB!
Good lists guys!
I use 'Botchtower' for Watchtower. Here are a few more:
TOMO 3, Tony the Turd: reference to Governing Body member Anthony Morris III
Gibbering Buddies, Gubberning Body: reference to Watchtower's Governing Body
Field Circus = Field Service
Ragazine = general term for Watchtower or Awake! magazine
Crapvention = Convention
Piosneer = Pioneer
R&F or Rank and File = Publisher - lowest JW level next to women and children
Kingdumb Misery = Kingdom Ministry

My Father is inactive. He has dementia and is in a wheelchair now. He is really not capable of putting any sort of meaningful sentence together anymore.
Does this place him in the JW coward category?

Anthony Morris III: "...we cannot control everything that an individual might say..."
by cappytan ini noticed that anthony morris iii just said on the broadcast: "while we cannot control everything that an individual might say, it is clear that over the decades protecting children from abuse is a top priority for this organization.".
that, in my opinion, is a direct response to the richard ashe "spiritual protection not physical protection" deposition.. here's a video putting the two statements side by side.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgevpuyn7gy.

Well TOMO 3, words are just words. Saying it is a top priority and actually MAKING it a top priority are 2 very different things. Your organization's methods for protecting kids are 100% useless.
Zalkin is comin' for ya.

Alchemist said: I am baptized and I left 8 years ago because I disagreed with the the idea that the GB is God's sole channel of communication.
Unless you have changed your mind about this, the GB as sole channel of communication with God is still an ideal held by this religion. So you would still have this issue even if you went back.
May I ask you ... have you created your life plan? What do you want to do with your life? What do you enjoy doing? What things give you joy?
Connecting with like minded people may help you through this tough time. Perhaps join a group or club that does something you enjoy or something that interests you. Help out at a local food bank or shelter or sign up to help out on a Habitat for Humanity project. Consider taking a course to learn something new. Seeing a counselor may also be something to look into.
