  i have a certain customer, whom we will call sally.

  i know sally only by face and only through work.

  i am a truck driver on a local dedicated route, and i often deliver to her work.

  The JW community also hates it when you are successful in your post-JW life. Remember that living a successful life is the greatest revenge.

  Why so few XJWs online?

  by StephaneLaliberte in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  not too long ago, i posted a topic where i pointed out that there are about 1 million xjws alive right now.

  that number only represented the disfellowshipped ones... didn't account for those who had become publishers and left or anyone else who got hurt by that group by proxy.

  so, why are there so few of them online?

  I am sure that most exJWs just want to get on with their lives. I occasionally view the videos you mention, but I have no desire to become active. I am not even sure what I need to be active in? For example, I am not going to waste my time trying to convert those still in the cult.

  I keep track of what goes on here, but if you checked my posting frequency I don't have a lot to say.

  in 1967 i had the misfortune of being born with a watchtower stuck in my ass.

  it took 45 years for me to realize, "hey!

  there's a watchtower stuck in my ass!

  Great analogy.

  I was born in, and discovered the smelly protrusion when I was a 35 year old elder. It took me another 10 years to finally pull it out. I have now been free for 15 years. Yikes, that makes me 60.

  The example in the lower left corner looks pornographic.

  Maybe Caleb's family figured the couldn't survive on a Betlelite's salary and decided to take on a few side jobs.

  Griffin Assembly Hall (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) now a Megachurch

  my mom, while pregnant with me, was one of thousands of jw volunteers to work on the construction of this once beautiful assembly hall in south florida circa 1984. it had a beautiful pond, waterfall, and even a resident alligator.

  many remember it as well for it's huge plaster murals on the walls showing scenes of paradises.. pics as it was before (sorry for the low quality, struggled to find good pics of the auditorium as it was, if you have any good ones, do share them):.

  The last "elders' school" I attended was at this assembly hall. What a dreadful memory.

  Life is changing for me: no pioneering, got a job!

  by Skepsis in

  a month ago i decided to register in this board.

  i had decided to step down pioneering but was frightened about the consequences.

  i had finished my university degree some months before (despite disaproval from brothers in my congregation) and i had to choose: continue pioneering and working in jobs with no future or starting a career, working full-time.. i was thinking to postpone the decisiton but... i was fed up with preaching.
