How Have You Gone About Making Friends Since Leaving the Witnesses ?
by flipper ini've noticed lately that some on our board, or perhaps for many of us, that's why i'm writing this , have had a challenge making new friends after leaving the jehovah's witnesses religion.
it has been a mixed bag for me.
i have met some through my wife, who is not a witness.

They all preach love but have no problem hating you (or shunning you) if you don't believe EXACTLY like they do.

So close to sending in the letter
by PoppyR inso, i found out today that my whole family, that is mother, older brother wife and child, older sister and husband, younger brother and wife have gone away together for a week.. previously i would have been right in the center of all that.
this time i didn't even know until after they'd gone.
cant say it doesn't hurt, what a punch to the gut.

Each person must do what "feels" right to them.
My son DAed himself as I did. We publicly when into their world (baptized)...we wanted to make a public display going out...not just for us but for all those still "in the borg." We felt that by doing so, we were saying "We are no longer playing by their rules."
This was done before they could find something to DF us for....giving them some kind of justifacation to hate us in their world...since they were anyway.
My Daughter decided to just fade...

Jeff....great stuff my friend...were do you get this stuff..very nice.
The fools that still believe in Satan are the same ones who still believe that Satan turn all these people on the Earth against God...getting God so pissed off... to the point that he has NO choice but to kill 6 BILLION people leaving only 6 million (good people?) here to wordhip him...in fear and trembling...
So in the universal score board....most people DO love Satan ( be doesn't really exist)
6 Billion points for Satan
6 million points for God.....no wonder god is pissed off that he has to kill everyone ....he lost by a land slide.

The real reason they stopped Christmas is it cost the society extra money every year for the event...
Money better spent in the world wide work.
Also notice how happy everyone is in this picture....fun place to be in the bible house.

"Light Gets Brighter"
by new boy inthe wt says the bible warns us about false prophets (matt.
7:15)....and tells us we can see if they if they are false, if they say that they speak for god and make predictions in his name....yet the predictions don't come true.....the society has given no less then 6 dates for end of the world, the last being 1975.. plus false prophets change their minds on what god thinks too.. resurrection of men of sodom.
1879- they will be resurrected.

Want some more? O.K.
The "Higher powers" of Romans 13:1
1916 -'Higher powers' refers to governmants
1943- 'Higher powers' refer to Jehovah God & Jesus
1964- 'Higher powers' refer to governments
But the BIGGEST SWITCH I think was the "can your talk to DFed ones?"
1953- no contact must shun
1974- can have limited contract, try and get them back with love.
1981- no contact must shun

We Should Give Newbies the Benefit of the Doubt
by flipper inconsidering what has gone on at this board the last couple months, i thought this would be good to discuss !
it's true that some here are somewhat jaded and untrusting of others because of the deception pulled by " trevor" and the whole " trevorgate " thing.
that being said and acknowledged however , think about what makes us not trust others as ex-witnesses.
