  So what happens next...

  with what is arguably the biggest change to jw life in recent decades (the scrapping of publishers counting hours) what does this lead to?.

  in my mind these are the results;.

  1) a massive decrease in 'preaching hours'.

  Jws getting drunk

  has anyone got any good 'jws and alcohol' stories?

  i always found it amazing that so many jws got blind drunk at parties and got away with it!

  i suppose alcohol was the only fun thing we were allowed to partake in....

  can anyone out there that is pimo give an update on the rate of kingdom halls closing in the uk?.

  i was expecting a fire sale a few years back but i haven't heard much.

  some congregations that were struggling back in my day still seem to be holding on to their halls..

  The length of a public talk

  by Farmer Jim1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  does anyone ever wonder the good they could have done instead of giving a public talk for 45 or 30 minutes?

  i remember giving my first public talk aged 18 and even then i was thinking ' this is just me making up half truths trying to blind people with jw propaganda'.

  fast forward 15 years to when i gave my final public talk and i was so close to seeding the 30 minutes with ideas that could possibly wake people up but i never had the guts.. in that 30 minutes i could have done so much real good for a person instead of spreading this awful religions dogma.

  The festive period

  by Farmer Jim1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so having spent xmas day and boxing day on my own (which has actually been really enjoyable) it has given me time to reflect on how fortunate i am to be free of the jehovah’s witness cult!

  i would previously been guilted into going door knocking on xmas day and would have been half heartedly preparing for a thursday night meeting/indoctrination session which i didn’t want to be at.

  heres to all the folks still stuck in the cult that secretly want to leave - i’m thinking of you as i’m sure many others on this site are, and we’re all here to help you pick up the pieces when you eventually take the plunge and leave the abusive relationship that the cult has with you.. happy festive everyone and special thanks to those that supported me when i left..

  Two lies all Jehovah’s Witnesses are told

  lie 1).

  when you leave the jws you will be unhappy and will have a hole inside you that only the ‘truth’ will fill.

  only when you return to the jws will you feel complete again.. utter nonsense!
