by lastcall injuly 2002 question box : " what should we bear in mind when using cellular telephones and electronic pagers?
this in my mind is the ultimate question in the sense that it really shows how rediculessly micro-managed we were in this religion.

Losing the Ego, easier said than done
by homeschool ini've read steven hassan's combatting cult mind control, and i can see that it's impossible to say anything negative about their religion/cult.
thats just really stinkin' tough when you have proof and evidence of things and they are in lala land about their cult!
about ten years ago, i was a lot more outspoken about how i felt about the jw's, but have since grown up a bit.

The Watchtower Didn't Make Me An Atheist
by B_Deserter inive posted on this before, but i figured i should lay my thoughts out again on the subject.
there are some in the ex-jw community who are saddened because the watchtower organization has turned me and others like me off to god.
the watchtower attacks and debunks other religions on a regular basis, often giving us the sense that if the watchtower is wrong, then there cant be a god.

Should I just keep my distance?
by wavvy inreading other people's posts, its obvious that those of us who still have contact with our jw family are constantly bombarded with sick propaganda designed to make us feel guilty and scared.
we are all so happy to be out, yet these contacts with our family revive all the bad feelings.. my parents are always calling me to meet up with them for coffee or something.
i don't want them to be a part of this new life of mine because i don't need that kind of crap all the time.

My SIL's dad is dying right now
by RaraAvis inand it is so sad, and so hard.
this is the one thing about losing my religion that has been the hardest for me.
it was so wonderful believing a person goes to sleep, a hope of waking up to a wonderful new world.
