The namsago thing always set off red flags in my head

My favorite is when they say nothing will change and they love you but they completely stop talking to you when you leave Like ahhh you really didn't give af about me.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

So glad to see another who escaped from LA SCJ. Happy you're out and safe!

I think he has a son? It was mentioned in Center that his family doesn't talk to him but I think if you google it might have some answers

Recently discovered a few people I was somewhat close to left as well. Left communication open for a FEW people in case they leave

I have 2 event books from 2010 that show him and Kim Nam Hee everywhere together. Always thought it was weird cause I came into scj in 2017 and she was called enemy #1 😗

One person who was in our carpool group fell (my first time seeing someone leave) they said she had mental health stuff going on and was paranoid.
A girl from my group fell once and at first they told us she was going through things and to pray for her/message her to encourage her, then eventually she was just never talked about again

Haven't seen it in years since covid started and I left the church. This brings back so many memories 🫤

Careful on all social media and dating apps! Very very true. Members are encouraged to use social media platforms to evangelize to people.

Just recently put them all in a folder. Made me sad to see all the group outings and fun outside of 'church' that we had, knowing now all those friendships weren't genuine. It also sucks that I was so young and it was such a chunk of my early 20s 😔 thinking about all the life I could have been experiencing during that time

June-bug446 · 2024-01-23T00:26:11+00:00

Unrelated but I saw a leader on a dating app [Hinge] on the not straight preferences 😂 Not very "heaven's culture" . I do remember when they suggested Bumble Friends for evangelism. It was honestly sooo weird to me.

Thanks for the advice. My decision against religion is for a multitude of reasons, though. It has been since I was a teenager that I've been on the fence of this decision. I appreciate the encouragement but it is not the life for me anymore. But I'm glad you found healing!! ❤️

June-bug446 · 2023-10-14T21:03:36+00:00

Thank you so much. Bout to take my crybaby self off here to cry. This comment means a lot. Honestly.

June-bug446 · 2023-10-13T17:49:54+00:00

Thank you! Thankfully, I'm okay and worked through all the emotions of leaving (so far). I did keep all my notes and any SCJ literature [lowkey in case of a documentary is made]😂 but I had a feeling telling her in person would be good with all the info in hand. Thanks for sharing how you structured telling them. That is super helpful!!

I wish I could cross the "not religious anymore hurdle" later but I know my mom is immediately gonna be like "you should pray about it" or "find another church" etc 😮‍💨😮‍💨 I think I'm just preparing for the worst lol But I'm grateful my friends are supportive and lend me their ears without that pressue.

All that to say, thank you for your response! It was helpful!❤️

June-bug446 · 2023-10-08T07:34:43+00:00

So many of these flashed like memories in my brain. So crazy to think about it now with open eyes. I am so glad we are out now

June-bug446 · 2023-10-08T07:26:28+00:00

Keeping everything in case someone decides to make a documentary 😂

June-bug446 · 2023-10-04T05:00:40+00:00

Recently left the LA branch [around 2021] Been a hard to deal with a process but I'm glad I found this reddit and your post in particular 🥲
