South Park does a whole skit on jeHovahs Witnesses
by Praise YaHuWaH inwatchin the season premier of south park, something i don't normally do but just happened to catch and glad i did.
they totally had two jw women go to one of the characters "butters" house and gave him a magazine about some sort of destruction scene that was on the cover representing armageddon.
yet again showing that the ancient pagen name of hovah they worship really does live up to the name defined as ruin according to strongs 1943. wife and i laughed our butts off... even the world knows how the "wbtsociety" is so fear focused on destruction rather than the real love that our savior said should be our true walk and focus... .

How Do I Explain To My TalkTherapist That JW's Believe They Will Never Die?
by LoisLane looking for Superman ini know for us exjw's that have awakened from this religion, it seems incredulous that we ever.
could have believed we were going to live forever and never die.. not just never die, but never die, like i was raised to believe with.
the millions now living will never die, garbage.. i said that to my highly educated professional therapist last week.. her eyes got big, and she said gently as to a child, "loislane, we are all going to die".. yes, i know that now, but that is not what my religion taught and i believed, for 60 years.. any thoughts on how i explain this lunacy to her?.

No magical answers, but I like the following approach:
Delete the texts, assign the emails as spam, screen your calls. When they pop by, say that you thank them for their concern but you have to go. Then shut the door. Within a few months, it should ease up.

Darth,
You may be on to something there. Imagine a website where video messages could be put up by the person who runs the site with heartfelt messages to loved one still stuck in the Watchtower Corp. This could be extroardinarily powerful. I agree that it would be best to set out guidelines for the videos (not abusive, language/cursing, etc.). I'm imagining the possibilities.
There are many possible names for a site like this:
I don't know if any of those sites are already taken...But these are just some ideas.

Kiddingme - you write that it could be perceived as persecution and could contribute to an assembly part. I agree. But is this necessarily a bad thing? Who knows, there may be some cognitive dissonance as a result. Not likely to change the family situation any, but...
There may be a greater good: to others and society at large.

"Grow up and be a Dad to your only daughter." -----> Very condescending. I'm sure Bonezz would love nothing more than to be a dad to his children.

Bonezz,
I disagree with Ginger. As far as I am concerned, your plan is an excellent one.

And as you know it won't bring her back to you (would anything??), but at least you will have done something without taking this *&^$ from the Watchtower Corp "religion." With an ad, craigslist postings and a website too as well as the youtube video, everyone will see what a destructive religion she is caught up in. I'm so glad you aren't going to let Watchtower Corp get away with this.

Wow, the video sounds like a great idea -- something like that deserves to be seen widely. JWs are so two faced, it's sickening. Let the world know the truth.
And, an ad in your local paper and on craigslist (missed connections?) would be a good addition. Finally, a G-ma website with the video, the whole story written out for the world to see. People need to be warned about the harmful nature of JWs.
