For anybody who is going to dissassociate.......
by EndofMysteries ini haven't officially because of family.
but i see many times on this board those who do it it and write a letter to send a message.
(hoping it gets the elders reading it to think).

The murmuring phase is the beginning of an ex-JWs progression towards fading.
by Stand for Pure Worship ini suppose part of the fascination i have with this board is, the exotic nature of those making up the member population.
i say exotic because, as you yourselves will agree with, folks such as yourselves don't hang around the christian congregation for long upon making the decision that truth is not for you.
(rom 1:25) this "fading" thing spoken of here likely plays a role into why christians such as me find the average ex-jw to be a bit fascinating.

Holy spirit handouts, and the magical prayers only the Witnesses get answered.
by msconcerned injehovah, please allow our house to sell so we can go preach in another country where the need is great.. jehovah please help me get that job where i dont have to work shiftwork anymore and i can make all the meetings.. jehovah we need $200 so we can go to the convention, please look after us.. ah yes, the prayers of the faithful one.
how we look at these and feel our hearts swell with love for our god.
many of us at one time or another have asked for things such as these.

Most Irritating Thing About The Jw's
by integ infor me it is the smugness.
it's their inability and refusal to admit they are wrong....ever...even in the face of irrefutable evidence.
isn't pride a sin?

What are the buzz words or trigger for JWs?
by UBM101 ini read steve hassan's book and he mentioned about buzz words or triggers that call out the cult personality of a victim of mind controlling cult.
when you were in, what triggered you?.

Welcome to the Masquerade Hall
by msconcerned init has been an interesting ride these last few months, and sometimes i have failed to put into words my feelings as of late.
but tonight i have something that will help explain the feeling i get whenever i walk in to the masquerade(kingdom) hall.
masquerade balls were sometimes set as a game among the guests.

Cause and effect...
by msconcerned inits been going on for years but tonight it really hit home.
i have to drink after my meeting, its the only thing that calms my nerves.
