Where to begin?
by DATA-DOG ingood morning everyone,.
i am drinking coffee and thinking about something that kept my tossing and turning all night.
i want to tell my wife, the elders, my friends, that i have been watching a pattern develope within the wtbts for years, and that i love them all but feel that tha wtbts has become a mirror of ancient jerusalem when they strayed.

The Organization Does Not Want You To Think!
by minimus inthey try to keep you on a hamster's wheel and never give you a break.. if you are young and single, you should be a regular pioneer.. if you are gifted and intelligent you should not even think of college, just preach the beliefs of the watchtower.. if you want to get married and then have kids, that's typically discouraged since we are so deep in this time of the end.. if you are married and have a family, you are expected to act superhuman and perform feats as a way of life like preparing for and attending all meetings, getting out in field service every weekend, caring for the children, feeding them, getting them ready for theocratic activities, and making sure you show appreciation for the spiritual food by being early for the meetings and commenting as you are expected to.
.
then there's family worship night which the pharisees invented in order to study more of the organization's doctrines.. meanwhile if you or your family are under the weather or feeling ill, you are guilted into going to the kh, participating and looking joyful.. is there any wonder why "apostates" are so content in life, now??.

by RayPublisher inis it just me or are we seeing more and more of these guys?.
i have been having some extraordinary conversations with these folks lately and they are actually holding lengthy dialogues with me, one who has become "dangerous", is "poisonous", a "slanderer", etc.
according to wt.. here is one exchange from yesterday and today with a jw apologist who calls himself "warriorprince101010" who decided to call me the dreaded "a" word on one of my videos, stating that i was a "bitter apostate":.

Watchtower: Changing The Past To Suit The Present
by Gorbatchov inthe new leaked watchtower magazine with major changes in doctrines, makes me realy sick.
we all know that communist governments are able to "change the past to suit the present".
our religion, always fast to point the finger to other religions and governmental organizations about faults, fairness and mistakes, is violating history.

Examples please; How does the WTS 'bait and switch' after Baptism...?
by The Song Remains The Same ini was wondering if there is a list already on here that presents the key 'game changers' or 'bait and switch' points that will happen once you get baptised?
this can include behavioral changes by the already members towards the newly baptised.. i've read somewhere about the 'love bombing' and how that stops, heard a bit about the time-in-service reporting, and that pressure to attend the meetings goes up (esp.
if missing a few).

"The Sociopath Next Door" by Martha Stout, Ph.D.
by gmcotten in"[pshychologist] stanley milgram .
pointed out that people who disobey destructive authority suffer psychologically, too.
often a person who disobeys finds himself at odds with the social order, and may find it hard to shake the feeling that he has been faithless to someone or something to whom he pledged allegiance.

My life of Debauchery since leaving WTBT$-They were right!!!
by Gojira_101 insince april 1st will be officially 6 months and i will be considered inactive, i thought this would be a good time for me to review my life since leaving....and i guess wtbt$ is right in that my life would return to a debauched state if i left them...so here is my review and i'm being totally serious here.. .
sex: yes i have sex with my husband.....i guess we have returned to the world because we take advantage of our marital dues.. related to sex: no longer just missionary.
drugs: yes i have been taking drugs......my allergies have been so bad the last few days i just couldn't handle it anymore and i gave in to the temptation to take over the counter allergies medicine.. rock and roll: yes......i am no longer listening to the kingdom melodies (i never really did anyways), and have gone to listening to the devils music.
