Oh so sorry, I neglected to say hello and welcome
to JWN.......hope you let us know what happens.
Many of us have lost children to this cult, so we
understand your concern!

i was thinking of doing a pop-in visit when they're doing their thing(what ever that might be).
to just see what it is that lures and hooks people, like our son.
i was worried there is some sort of subliminal messages in audio or video that start to brain-wash a person.

Just be alert to the LOVE bombing that you
will probably receive ....that's how it starts.
The repetative rituals & "lessons" that are
spewed out in the 4 meetings every week is
how they systematically programn your mind.
If you are aware of this ....you should be fine.
Good luck

they say that seinfeld was a tv program about nothing.
in the end, it was all silliness.. this religion is inconsequential in the big scheme of things.
it's stupid.. .
It is exactly that ...all about nothing!
It has gone in every direction including
right back to where they were in the
begining ...and yet, here we are, it has
all failed.
Those who were to live forever ...are all dead!

Jw's limp, day to day on more empty promises.
Promises even more foolish than ever before!
We have the hallowed GB members, denying
that they even are members or rulers of
anything .....

It was....and is ......... a big fat nothing!

and yes, the jws get a door-knocking joke around minute 15, in the pam anderson skit.. it's for tv, so not as edgy as "black white and brown" or his other shows, but for a xmas special, what can you expect?.
ho!
ho!
Love this guy ...thanks for posting this!

my brother called to chat, which is shocking from the man of few words, off the cuff i let him know last weekend i learned that the outrageous socks he wears are inappropriate.
i let him know i would no longer be associating with him and the fact that he has been inactive for the past 10 years he has blood on his hands and i didnt want that dripping all over my freshly cleaned floors.
i also told him the internet was no longer naughty, but the fact that he wasn't an ms ever, showed his lack of spiritual maturity.
All For Show ......good for all of you, thanks
for sharing!

im new here, and dont know much about jw, other than what im reading.
i have my best friend who is having bible study in her home with 2 witnesses, and she is soaking it in.
she is very defensive and is getting more and more closed off.
Welcome to jwn tiredroadie, nice to have you
here!
Do not attack head on, even if you are positive
that you are right!

The very first thing jw's do, is warn the 'potential victim'.
They slyly warn that friends & family will argue & say
NOT to study with jehovah's witnesses!
Then, the jw's tell you not to listen to your family,because
Satan is just using your loved ones to try to make you stop
studying, and then of course when this does happen...
BINGO ....... see the jw's are right!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*
Omg ...this works very often. It worked with me,
all those years ago ........I actually was convinced by
those 'so nice' ladies that satan wanted me to miss out
on gods paradise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All the best

for a religious group that has become more and more reader's digest vapid across recent decades, whose ability to defend its doctrines and policies depends on punishing independent thinking and whose meetings are sleep inducing snooze-fests, a talk about sexy clothes is about as desperately arousing as it can get without unzipping one's pants.. but among those who know the religious organization behind tony morris's attention-grabbing address to the faithful, this is anything but surprising.
when you've harped on for long, unforgiving decades about the nearness of the end, whilst simultaneously shoring up treasures on earth - some ear-marked for completion in 2017 - expect even your more loyal followers to shuffle their tired, bedraggled feet and barely stifle forceful yawns.
hell, they may even contemplate tighter fitting clothes because all else is miserably bland - except for the razzle-dazzle of an alluring, colorful world intent on arousing you out of your sad slumber.. so these self-appointed emperors or governing body member focus on anything that threatens a straying spirit.
These poops popes will never look at themselves!
Aintenoughwhiskey and Apostrate ...perfect names
for an ex btw ..ha hah, welcome to jwn.
Love having you here and we look forward to hearing
more from you both!

You would enjoy watching kim mikey - utube
they really expose wt and have a lot of laughs
give it a try!
Hello there Smart........and you are indeed smart to
catch on to the BS so early!
I wasted many years of my life slaving for this
evil cult!

Slow down a bit and get your mind clear ... and plan
your next steps.
If you think all those jw's in your congregation are
your friends ....... hold onto your hat ....they are not!
When coming into the watchtower religion, we are
commanded to 'love' one another ............and
when it is suspected that you are 'weak' or have your
name announced from the platform ....in a blink of an
eye you will be 'hated' ........that too is commanded!
Those who were your 'closest friends' will not even
look at you!
*
So plan accordingly. Research the history. Research
the Governing Body!!!! There is plenty of information
& fact right here on jwn. Look at jwstruggle, jwfacts
lots to dig into.

As far as the daughter of the elder ...tread carefully,
she is probably more conflicted than what you are
feeling right now!
I wish you all the best young man, enjoy the life
that your parents gave you ......right NOW. Don't
slave for watchtower so you can have their "paradise"
WTBS is nothing but a business ...looking for money
& power!
