How to leave Jehovah's Witnesses (fairly) painlessly...
by DubBeachBabe inposted this as a response on another thread, but i know there are people who want this as a new discussion.
i'm sure there are many good people watching these discussions who know you want to leave, but also know that this is what may await you - family alienation and pain.
if you haven't already overtly left, my advice to you is this: don't succumb to the disfellowshipping process.

REALLY, Why Do People Remain Jehovah's Witnesses???
by minimus ini think it's all about fear.
they are always afraid of displeasing jehovah god, the elders, the circuit overseer.
witnesses are always walking on eggshells, hoping that they'll be good enough to make it thru the great tribulation.

Automatic Re-instatement?
by BritBoy indoes anyone out there know the answer this one.... .
ok, take for example the oral sex thread and the fact that the dubs reversed their thinking on this.
so, twenty years ago (within the marriage arrangements) blow job = disfellowshipping... now it's a "matter of conscience".

JW parents/relatives attempts to encourage you to come back or change ...
by alienagent ini am rather new here, so i may be repeating a worn out subject.
however, for me it is rather a new experience, since i have only just recently stopped going to the kh.
my heart has never really been in it, though i am not in total disagreement and have made some nice friends in "the truth".

Fictional representations of Jehovah's Witnesses
by slimboyfat ini wonder if anyone has ever compiled a list of references to jehovah's witnesses in novels and other works of fiction.
i have been reading about research into mormonism focussing on how mormons have been represented over the years in works of fiction.
a similar project with jehovah's witnesses would be really fascinating.

Teaching a Toddler to Reason...
by jgnat ini'm working on my "unbelieving mates" book today.
i'm putting together the best ways to teach a child to reason from infancy to adulthood.
i firmly believe that a child taught to reason can be permanently inoculated against pyramid schemes, con artists, bad dates, fear-mongering, false politicians promises, quackery, and destructive religious extremism.. reasoning ability is closely tied to language development.
