What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?

by ILoveTTATT2 in

i had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.

i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.

however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

My situation was different to most as i was out a long long time before i realised the WTS was a crock of shit.

I was disfellowshiped and nothing more then pissed off at the lies told to me by elders for being disfellowshiped and refusal for my reinstatment.

Some years later i taped jehovahs witness in youtube. And alot of videos greeted me there. It opened my eyes, then i foundmyself here.

I think youtube will continue to play a significant roll for JWS who are begening to fade. As you can type very vauge searches that wouldnt arrose suspicion if seen from afar ( for our oppressed faders) so if your one of the people who make youtube videos. Even if you dont get many views or comments. Please please keep going. You never know who your helping or comforting.

just lately i've become weary of following recipes in books or online.

recently when on holiday in the lake district i wanted to make pasta with a tomato and cheese sauce but the only interesting cheese they had at the local store was a somerset brie.

i discovered when peeled of its skin and tossed in with tomatoes and pasta it melts beautifully and tasted amazing.

Thanks all. The brisket went in at 0715HRS.

From the look of Jesus left pec he appears to be suffering with a mild case of gynocomastia. The growing of breast tissue in a male due to hormone embalances. It most commonly found as a side effect from the mis use of anabolic steroids and sub standard methods of estrogen control.

Poor Jesus, He had a rough ride on earth, mums a loon, she slept with the postman,gets nailed to some wood AND had gyno....

Im preparing a rolles brisket to slow roast tomorrow. Im thinking a 10hr cook should suffice. Nothing to exciting. Iron pot, beef stock , garlic, carrots and 10hrs in the oven!

Only thing is to sear first or not... any opinions?

Has Your Political Views Affected Your Buying Habits or Entertainment?

will you avoid nike or tend to not buy apparel because of their support of colin kap?

would you stop doing business with anyone simply because you disagree with their politics?

in california, in and out burger, democrats were being told not to support the chain because they donated to republicans.. will politics affect your spending habits?.

scruffmcbuff

To a degree.. but not overly. As a example 90% of my clients are anti brexit

Im very much pro brexit, it hasnt and wont effect our working relationship.

Lifesnotover: serious question

Are you genuinely offended? If so id assume you percieved the question as an insult or hurtful? Im certain that wasnt the OP intention.

Id say personal boundries are respected here, tho OP requested no personal details. You have a choice to either add to this thread or ignore it and move on.
