  Why do people "come back"?

  by kairos in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know of several examples of ones that "left the truth" for up to 20 years, only to suffer through the reinstatement process and feel like they are finally back on track.. how does this happen?.

  i personally know of one example where a father of three, leaves jws, abandons wife and family, lives as a gay man then comes back 20 years later as a partaking member of the anointed..

  How many of you here would return (KH) if N. Korea or China dropped

  a nuclear bomb in N.Y, the start of WW3.?? Speaking for myself i

  would volunteer for the home front, not for one minute would I consider running

  back to the KH...

  am i alone in this feeling?

  i wish i could muster the cojones needed to tell my husband "i want a divorce, move away, not be a jw anymore!".

  i find myself screaming these same words over and loud inside my mind, several times a day, and yet on the outside my actions could not be more opposed to these inner feelings.. sometimes i worry that this internal conflict will cause me to go crazy.

  wheninDoubt;"if you don't want to be JW because you see the desires of

  the world, and you believe it's passing you by", are you serious.

  Are you talking about higher education, celebrating your child birthday and

  no one lost their head, not knocking on doors to sale your religion or just

  growing up like a regular teenager.

  Please tell us what desires are you talking about??????

  Who exactly is an apostate?

  by SonoftheTrinity in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if you are a non-believing relative or spouse who is hostile to their doctrine are you an apostate?

  if you studied with them and rang the logical fallacy buzzer for chits and giggles to see how they would react does this make you an apostate?.

  if you are a born in who never got baptised does this make you an apostate?.

  Oh I forgot, we must include Jesus or Paul. Yes from Judaism to Christianity.

  Please help me figure out my dreams

  hi everyone, this may be the stupidest post ever.

  i am stumped for an answer and would love to hear your opinions, though.

  every week or two for the last couple of years, i have a dream--or at least that's what i'm calling it--that consists of me waking up or thinking that i've waked up, and seeing the ceiling of my darkened bedroom filled with algebraic equations.

  I had dreamed years ago that I was chased by demons. Guess what,

  I was a JW. The last time I had that dream I stopped running and turn to

  face my chaser so what happened. The chaser stopped and shook my hand.

  From that day forward I stop running in my dreams. LOL

  'If you go to my church this Sunday I will go to yours next Sunday'

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  how many witnesses would take up that offer if a person at the door asked them?

  if that doesn't scream out "cult"!

  if you know too much about the witnesses then you are an apostate.

  the real reason, I can't go to your church because I will be attack by

  DEMONS. So you would look like a nut if you told the householder that. LOL

  Epic Discussion ( Confrontation ) with JW Cart People about WT Child Abuse

  by flipper in

  so i had about had enough of reading jw's excuses online about wt child abuse and the candace conti nightline abc video about her case.

  this is a really deep burning topic to me as i'm sure it is to many of you.

  I think the point is someone that have never been involved with JW's

  would be more effective. People don't care about shunning ex-members ,

  blood issue and other unique JW teaching. Sexual abuse, that's another story.

  I'm surprised that flipper was able to get as far as he did in the conversation

  because they distinguished he was a ex- JW.

  This is a issue that we as ex-JW need to sit back and let the public drill their butts.

  Stay away from what the bible say and debating scriptures. You folks (JW) are

  breaking the law, big time plane and simple..

  Flipper: A thought. I wonder will it be more effective if someone held

  a sign that has never been a JW. We have people that is looking for

  a cause animal rights, trees, women and etc. If you have a ex-JW holding

  a sign most will say he is a disgruntle ex-JW but this is a issue that effects all.

  A child molester, that cross the line JW or not especially when they come to

  your door. A none JW don't necessarily need to know about JW insane teaching

  or doctrines, but protecting chid molesters that's a different story. I'm not

  a Catholic but was upset when I saw what was taking place in the Catholic faith.

  JW's at their stands can not accuse someone as a apostate when they have never

  been a JW. So if they approach someone with a sign what can they say, read or

  material it's all a lie. The sign holder will say, I'm not concern about your doctrines.

  Wouldn't it be more effective to find a group that deals with child molesters and

  pass on the information, Nightline and the WT policy. Inform them that

  these people that have stands set up in your communities are knowingly

  protecting child molesters.

  We get TV news where some child molester have been release from jail and moved

  in a neighborhood, when the community find out, protesters in force. In all

  cases the child molester will move.

  So the question , what agency do you contact. I think this could be the worst

  idea, WT stands. You can walk away from the doors but stands set up

  in the public eye that's a different story. Can we use this to our

  advantage??

  Some of you may not agree but what would happened if at each

  stand someone held a sign, "these people protect child molesters".

  The clueless JW will wonder how are we protecting child molesters,

  what the hell are they talking about. I will check into this in order to

  combat these lies. Anyone with half a brain will see there is a problem

  with WT policy once they do a little research.
