i was a member of this community a long time ago and have lurked for years.
well, i am back and still thoroughly conflicted, with my heart/loyalties as divided as ever.
please welcome me back, hear me out, and make me feel as welcomed as before.. the wtbts has changed so very much in recent years that i feel trapped in a completely different religion altogether.

Just a little heads up.. the old religion you were in, and the new religion you are in.. are both crap.
People keep harkening back to the time and getting all nostalgic when they say it was a good religion.. it was the true religion.. it was the whatever religion.
WAKE THE HELL UP!! It never was any of those things. It's ALWAYS been a whole crock of horse shit but most were just too idiotic and gullible or pompous or so far up their own asses they could not see past a dumb stupid Awake article on anything.
Most were mollycoddled and love bombed into the the fake truth.. now they want to be mollycoddled and love bombed out of it. Pathetic..
Man up for goodness sake.
me and my wife are still "in".
we had the "talk" a couple of times, but shet is not ready to leave yet.
while a couple of years ago she started crying on the thought that i am an "apostate" and even gave me an ultimatum until she would rat me out to the elders (never happened), now i sense that she might is a little bit more open to the the thought to leave one day .... anyway, all out friends and family are still in the truth and whenever we are meeting with other witnesses topic #1 is always the recent changes to the meetings / conventions (reduced to one day) which always lead to the changes to the magazines and the recent lay offs of the special pioneers and bethelites.
Anyway, all out friends and family are still in the truth
Funny how people who no longer believe it's the truth still call it 'the truth'. Brainwashing at it's best.

The power of the human mind..
here's the backstory: a jw posted a thread in /r/debatereligion basically allowing the community to ask him anything.
things got realer than he expected, i think.
someone brought up the failed predictions and asked if they would qualify as false prophecy(1 john 4:1).
i know the arc is old news i know i am preaching to the converted but i had to express how i feel because most of my jw friends and family dont want to hear .
so this is how i feel.
i have faithfully served as a jehovahs witness for over 25 years..
so much negative criticism on Jehovah’s people
It never ceases to amaze me how people just casually use the term 'Jehovah's People' as though there is even the tiniest shred of confirmable evidence that he chose any people at all.. that this group of cultists are the one's that he actually chose.. when one of their deranged leaders snatched some random scripture from a book written thousands of years ago by who knows who and bestowed it upon themselves..
If that's not the most nutty, presumptuous, delusions act of self self-aggrandising blind arrogance I really don't know what is.
as i mentioned in another post i used to serve as an elder for 2 decades.
i was involved in a number of jc.
some i dealt with are good friends now.
This is nothing to do with the honesty of 'apostates'.. this is just about people that lie full stop. And as we all know from personal experience and now clearly from the Australian Royal Commission, the orgs lawyers, their elders and even governing body members lie their asses off.
Maybe your post title should really read: - "Jehovah's Witnesses" How honest are they? -
is there a way i can successfully live a double life?
don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to get engaged in activities that are condemnable according to the *bible* (not the *wt*) standards.
i figured that the only way i can get the brothers and sisters to leave me along is by pretending that i am an unemployed drop out.

They will say you have achieved that already by just being here.

Things look pretty neat in TOR too.. I get to meet French chicks..
