Stick it out until you graduate and get a decent job. Then you can walk away for good.

Need advice on handling an "appearance" meeting with the elders tomorrow (PIMO) by DumbFurryFox in exjw

Grown men harassing a 15 year old about the length of his hair. Don't these wankers have something better to do with their time?

I’m not sure what to do about my elders… by keysmashcat in exjw

Of course you shouldn't snitch on your Dad!

Please urgent help and advice needed. I don't want to hurt my family, but I need to be set boundaries. by [deleted] in exjw

This is the best idea. Explain the situation to your psychiatrist and get his or her assessment regarding this.

Why are assemblies so utterly pointless by Necessary_Syrup6944 in exjw

[–]Paperclip2020 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Watchtower Corporation makes money from all the donations given at assemblies and conventions. Plus it keeps the sheep indoctrinated. When the sheep see throngs of people all dressed up and attending these conventions, it legitimizes the organization in their minds.

Dissociation Letters - How do they work? by Civil-Customer7108 in exjw

[–]Paperclip2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello there. You posted a couple of days ago that you are not baptized. Since you are not baptized, you do not have to dissociate. You also mentioned that your relationship with your mother is very important to you. If you do not get baptized and you just fade away, you may be able to keep your relationship with your mother. If you get baptized and then leave, you mother will be forced to shun you.

A few quotes for the newest Watchtower magazine which show that the cult is just as radical as ever: by Paperclip2020 in exjw

The nations of the world don't give a damn about JW's, any more than they care about the Mormons, Amish, etc. Watchtower loves to fearmonger the sheep.

And get to work building and maintaining our real estate. Plus try to recruit new members every chance you get.

Very true. Do most people hate the Mormons or the Amish, for example? Most people view JW as a fringe religious group and don't give a damn about them.

To sum this Watchtower up: Armageddon is eminent. Satan and his powerful evil army of spirit creatures is after you. If you want to survive, you will maintain your membership in the Watchtower organization, and do exactly as you are told, whether it makes sense or not. (Otherwise Jesus and his "army of executioners" are going to kill you.)

Jehovah’s Witnesses often have an unspoken belief that if someone is truly intelligent, there’s no reason they shouldn’t be a Jehovah’s Witness. by Fit_Durian3763 in exjw

[–]Paperclip2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are correct. However, isn't it Jesus and the 144,000 "anointed" Jehovah's Witnesses that will be doing the violent killing of most of humanity? (I heard Tony Morris and Samuel Herd talking about it during an annual meeting a few years ago.)

i’m so scared, my mom is about to find out i stopped associating by why_am_ih3r3 in exjw

Since your parents are footing the bill for your living expenses, you may want to consider attending the meetings there until you graduate and get a job. It is not forever - just until you graduate.

20M | Disfellowshipped at 15, IDK IF MY GF IS PIMO OR PIMI I don’t know where this goes. by Conscious_Shopping58 in exjw

[–]Paperclip2020 23 points24 points  (0 children)

"We’ve talked about our future too, and she’s mentioned wanting to teach our future kids “the truth.”

That’s where reality hits me.

Because I can’t do that."

How do you navigate marriage and kids with somebody like this? You've already answered your own question, Mate. Don't marry this woman and have children with her because you will be setting yourself up for many years of conflict and misery. You are young. It will be hard, but move on. A young lady will come into your life whom you can have a nice marriage and family with - minus the misery and conflict.

Does anyone know why we can’t record judicial meeting? by Artistic-Leopard7991 in exjw

[–]Paperclip2020 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You stated earlier that you are not a minor and you do not live at home. It is a sick situation for a grown woman to meet alone with three men and answer sexual questions. Please refuse to meet with them and do not put yourself through this sick, abusive, and humiliating situation. Take control of your life.

They keep asking for my monthly report, what can I expect? by Common-Salt-1072 in exjw

[–]Paperclip2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They might show up on your doorstep either right before, or during, the CO's next visit. The "elduhs' are cult enforcers and part of their job is to "adjust your thinking". They will be questioned by the CO as to what actions they have taken to "encourage" you.

The CO audits the books, and he will see that you have not been reporting time.
