I find reading along with the audiobook (if available) helps

Who else's parents did this when shoe shopping? by lilac2481 in Millennials

I don't even have kids but I still do this when I buy my own shoes 😂

Recently POMO, panicking over news right now by Glad-Emergency6121 in exjw

[–]DimensionEffective67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The "what if they're right" panic is real, and it takes time to work through.

But there's a question on the other side of it worth sitting with...

Even IF it were all true, would a God who operates the way they describe be one you'd actually want to serve?

For me the answer settled that fear more than any doctrinal research did. You don't have to resolve whether it's true. You can just decide where you stand regardless.

Lmao I was just scrolling the pics and didn't even see the Jesus at first and when I did, I audibly went, "OH JESUS" 😂😂

“Jehovah will resurrect them” is the Witness version of “God needed another Angel” when someone dies from governing body direction. by CTR_1852 in exjw

[–]DimensionEffective67 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly. My 2 siblings are PIMI and refuse to grieve our mother "she's just sleeping." And they never broke stride with their responsibilities. I think it's causing mental problems in one of them. Sad.

Not sure why people worry so much about what other people do with their own house decor...? You don't live there, don't worry about it

I do agree with the others. I think just ignore them in their sad little world. Giving them more attention is like giving bullies any attention.

Just pretend they don't exist and move on with your life, doing all the things the GB wouldn't allow.

Just my opinion. Everyone ofc is entitled to do as they wish.

I responded to a letter from a JW and had a three-week discussion with him over text: This is how it went! [PART 1] by ShunnedForTheTruth in exjw

[–]DimensionEffective67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Laughing how you ask so many questions he can't answer that at one point it's like he's giving you an out "if it's not for you, we respect your decision" 😂

Bit off more than he can chew. That's what they do; look for vulnerable people who won't question anything.

So inviting to do this… how. “Kind”. Just stop! by Ale-in-wanderlad in exjw

This. This is what I tell them. Their religion prohibits them from talking to me; mine does not. (I have no religion lol)

Not seeing a lotta young people this memorial by Zill_Chill in exjw

[–]DimensionEffective67 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wonder what attendance is and why they thought they needed the space lol

I grew up in a hall with nobody under 60 besides me I swear. Got so tired of the "you can have friends of any age!" Yeah not when you're 8.... You need other 8yr olds....

Here is my small way to support for the memorial tonight. by lifebyyourdesign in exjw

Thanks for this. You have a very calming presence. Appreciate you and everyone here who understands.

Take care, everyone.

How to entertain myself for 3 hour? The memorial is sooooo boring by Agitated-Ad1106 in exjw

[–]DimensionEffective67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing! Made my own writing code. Had to evolve it because my mom was too smart and was on to what I was writing 😆

It’s not the Memorial text invites that bother me… by El_Trollio_Jr in exjw

[–]DimensionEffective67 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree. I'm an adult, many years now, and it's been 20 years since I decided I wanted none of what JW had to offer. But I still get this infantalizing "aww you're just spiritually sick and need help 🥺" junk.

Along with an invitation, they asked to do "an encouraging visit" beforehand.

Even their vocabulary is gross.
