i have to share this with you.. after leaving the borg i had to concentrate to solve so many personal problems (financial, child custody, etc.

) that it left me with a poor social life.

i just didn't have the nerve/time to make new friends.

it has been a while since i've seen a witness, either in person or virtually.

searching for someone on facebook took me to the profile of a ministerial servant that i know.

i scrolled through his wall to see who is still around and found this gem:.

i was alone at the new branch construction site in ticuantepe (nicaragua).

everybody had taken off for a weekend assembly in the capital and it was my turn to have watchman duty and guard the site.

we had dogs and i only had to walk around the perimeters and check all the gates and entrances.. suddenly a young boy appeared at the main gate, breathless and visibly nervous.

Nauseating JW.org section for small children - CUTOUTS? Really?
by BluePill2 in
1. watchtower
2. child-abuse
i am not hot linking to jw borg, but they have a whole section for obviously very small children (become j's friend, with a whole array of caleb-related stuff).

i have actually never visited the site, today was the first time, because i wanted to check a technical information about their websites architecture and came across this sh*t!.

the way they are targeting small kids is nauseating me (i have a 5 year old, still in with her mother).

New low for Watchtower Society: slips below North Korea on the scum index!

if you have been following the news these days, you maybe have seen images like this one:.

heart breaking stories about people that where separated from their relatives for over 60 years.

i've seen an interview with a crying old man, saying that he fears that he will not be able to recognize his sister or that he will not have any feelings for her, because of the many years and the indoctrination by the north korean regime.. all of this reminded me of the watchtower society.

Consequences of the cult? FEAR and PASSIVITY - anything else?
by BluePill2 in
1. jw
2. friends
depending how long you where a member or if you where a born in, the watchtower leaves certain marks or traces in your mind that you only notice after leaving them for good.. i think this is similar to a big river, with a high level of water that covers the hidden rocks and cliffs.

once you start lowering the water level, all these rocks come to the surface and suddenly that river is difficult to navigate.. like that river, our minds are flooded with false hope for the future, a naive expectation to have jehovah sort things out for you and lots of fake, conditional love and warmth.

all these things hide the fact that the same organization also put some heavy rocks into your mind called fear and passivity.

2. scandals
before i dive into the actual write-up of this experience, let me put some things straight.. i have thought long and hard if i should write more about my experiences during the 10+ years at different branches.

during these years i worked from financial department, service department, home office and different it assignments.

as you can imagine one sees and hears and reads a lot of stuff going through different stations in different countries.

Fact: Your Life is trickling away or 936 Blobs...How many remain in your case?
by BluePill2 in
1. jw
2. experiences
i have seriously been thinking about my life course (like any other human being) but especially in the light of past events and where i am standing now.

my posts here show that i have (like most of us) still a good way to go until i have shredded every part of my cultish past.

at one side it will always be part of who you are and why you are now thinking, behaving in a certain way on the other hand we have to let go.

ususally i wouldn't come here to announce that two dudes in polyester suits with cheap ties wanted to convert me.

i am long past that "excitement", been out for a couple of years now.

this was the first time they rang my door bell.
