  My Reverse-Shunning Letter To My Mother

  by pale.emperor in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i mailed the below letter to my mother a few weeks ago.

  i did share it on the ex-jw facebook group but thought i'd post it here.. basically, she's shunned me since day 1, has little or nothing to do with my 3yo daughter and told my sister "i hope <my daughter> becomes a jw when she's older so i can welcome her into the family".

  well, that was the last straw for me..

  How narrow minded the author is.

  There are great men in every community, every city, worldwide.

  At the Kingdom Hall? Elders cover up pedophiles and treat women like second class citizens.

  Would you really want to get stuck with a JW, who thinks they have to listen and obey and be loyal to 7 uneducated, out of shape, delusional old men in New York first?

  The point at which you think this may not be the truth

  by LevelThePlayingField in

  i remember one of the nights that i found out the truth wasn't the truth, that is after finding out about the united nations, i remember riding my bicycle from like 1am till 5am in the city night.

  it was rather chilly, maybe about 55-60 degrees and i was playing pink floyd's dark side of the moon album in my earbuds.

  just riding and riding, not really tiring because of the thought that 7 men in brooklyn had duped me, duped me for like 20 plus years.

  It is shocking. It is devastating when it hits us. What??? I have been lied to my entire life??? All major decisions were based on the whims of uneducated men in Brooklyn? Oops. Was I really that naive to sacrifice my whole life to the illogical thoughts of strangers?

  Then it sinks in...

  How does one cope with the sudden and unexpected loss of a parent?

  by My Name is of No Consequence in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my dad died of a blood clot as a result of surgery late last year.

  to say that his death created a bottomless void in our family is an understatement.

  i think about him every day, sometimes constantly.

  I am so sorry for your loss. To have someone you love die, is the most horrible feeling. And then to go suddenly, when it had been expected that he was going to be getting better, it is so hard to accept.

  Once you get past the grieving, and accept that he is truly gone, I hope, in time, you will enjoy each day of remembering what a great father you had. To allow his love to be all embracing for you. That in time, his memory will give you a serge of joy and happiness... that you were truly loved by a wonderful man. Wouldn't that have made him happy? That his love for you made you a better, stronger person? Are you able to show that kind of wonderful personality your dad had to others? To be as loving and thoughtful as him? A little bit? If so, then it would be as if he were still by your side, helping you, help others.

  So sorry what you and your mom have gone through and are going through still. It is so painful having to get rid of possessions that hold so many happy memories. Do you absolutely need to sell the house?

  Hugs from a concerned internet friend.

  Tony Morris Shows Off Engraved Gold Ring with Turquoise Birthstone(?)

  the july jw broadcasting camera zooms in on tony's ring at around the 8:30 mark here:https://tv.jw.org/#en/mediaitems/latestvideos/pub-jwb_201707_1_video.

  maybe it's not a big deal.

  maybe it is.. in my opinion, it's being kind of flashy.

  It doesn't matter what jewelry or clothes he wears... But it is hypercritical to wear jewelry... yet tell little children to give up their ice cream money to "further Kingdom interests".

  He looks like he treats himself to anything he wants, ice cream, gold rings, international travel, adoring fans. And he lives in a "many room palatial estate" on the lake with maids, chauffeurs, free health care and anything his little heart desires. He listens to voices that tell him he is "special" and God has picked him because of this specialness. He's a fruit cake with supposedly 8 million adoring fans.

  Wearing kilts... So if you are born and bred Scottish, you cannot wear a kilt to a wedding? Can you wear it to a regular kingdom hall? Or at a convention?

  Now adays, would different clans with their own specific color and wool patterns... cause division (?) in the christian congregation?

  In Scotland, are there wool colors and patterns for the 'common man' to wear with out any ties to a clan?

  Is there still problems because of the Jacobites?

  Is a Scotsman dressed up in Highland kilt, welcomed down in the South dressed this way at an English Convention as a visitor?

  Who is benefiting from Watchtower Corporation financially

  by John Davis in

  2. beliefs

  who do you believe is financially benefiting from watchtower business dealings.

  i know about the gold apple watch, but that is only a small percentage of the billions that they have.

  so who do you think is keeping all of this money.

  I think a lot of people are naive.

  How do you wear a Rolex and yet keep begging for money, even telling children to give GB their ice cream money.

  Narcissist's are what the GB are and power is their game. They never have enough of anything.
