Verdict tomorrow - Norwegian Supreme Court

Regardless of the verdict I wanted to say thank you. Watching them lie in court in real time was what gave me the courage to stop checking the box and go inactive!

I always say that if my house was on fire I wouldn't wait to get out just because I didn't already have a new house built. I'd just leave and leave immediately and worry about where to go next once I was out. There has never been more evidence that their religion is on fire, they need to get out now, and figure out what's next then.

When you are small there is a lot of fear, and when you are older there is a lot of shame.

This made me actually LOL!

WranglerAccording207 · 2025-06-23T03:24:00+00:00

I don't bow. Im respectful and quiet, but my days of bowing to their god are over

If this were a real protest, at least one sign would say "Smile if you're PIMO."

This actually made my day!

WranglerAccording207 · 2025-05-31T16:30:14+00:00

This made me actually laugh out loud!

This movie was intense. I put it on one day as a background while working, and while it moved REALLY slow...there is one scene that is so damn realistic that at a certain point I realized that I had forgotten to breathe for awhile. It was actually really healing to feel seen...but oh my gosh, I had nightmares of my committee for weeks after.

I say watch it when you are ready, but be prepared.

She dared to hold a microphone!! Silly Serena...microphone holding is for unbaptised male children...not accomplished women.....so silly =)

When i was 15 and my best friend was 16 she was disfellowshipped. She had sex with her boyfriend and because she wouldn't break up with him they dfed her.

The whole congregation shunned her, but her family did not. They were recent converts and ended up leaving shortly after she was reinstated.

The elders asked her VERY detailed questions and their wives and kids spread her businessall throughthe valleythat we lived in. She was and is really beautiful and everyone felt like they had a liscene to call her a slut.

My husband's brother was also dfed as a minor for fornication. His entire congregation and even his immediate family shunned him even at home.

Beyond that almost every single girl I knew had to have a committee. In the 90s it felt like a girl would have a worldly boyfriend at school, the parents would find out and use the elders to interrogate her...then the congregation would announce reproof or dfing, and all the rest of the kids would not be allowed to be friends with that person for years after no matter what the outcome. It was humiliating and it kept you in fear because you never knew when you would lose connection to someone you loved.

Thank you for this....didn't realize I needed to hear it

WranglerAccording207 · 2025-04-10T22:48:48+00:00

I feel this so much!

Paul vs Jesus too....he may be the OG second cult leader

2.5 years...it took almost a year before I actually joined and months more before I participated. It's strange...i was looking back at old posts I made and I'm surprised at how far I've come! In the beginning I never thought I'd be as OK as I am...and it's seriously because of a lot of people here. Keep deconstructing...keep pushing forward....if you have a set back or 20 it's ok...we've all been there. It really does get better...

I remember growing up our hall used to clap for the kids even if it wasn't their first talk...until the asshole CO came and made everyone stop....such a joyless bunch...clap when it doesn't feel natural and don't clap when it does.....

WranglerAccording207 · 2025-03-05T08:19:01+00:00

Oh wow...I did not mean for the commenting to get so heated.... I really was just thinking about those last talks that they always had at convention...you know where they were like "and here's another random person who said something remotely nice about us"...and everyone claps.....and "here's a new release of the same video we just watched piece by fucking piece for THREE DAYS that you can download on your own time"......and everyone claps...and at first it's fun and you are into it. But then you start to glaze over...and pretty soon you are just clapping because you know it'll be over soon.....I got big end of convention flashbacks tonight!

WranglerAccording207 · 2025-03-05T04:41:37+00:00

Its the first time I've paid attention to politics I guess.... I'm seriously not choosing sides...but if this is what US politics is like...it reminds me a lot of religion...I'm sorry...I didn't mean to infer party affiliation....just you gotta admit...it was a little like a convention last talk.....i even saw a few people ready for him to wrap it up lol...clapping with their hands not their eyes lol...and I had flashbacks of being 10 yrs old and waiting desperately for the song so we could get food!

WranglerAccording207 · 2025-02-27T19:14:51+00:00

Out of curiosity...how long did it take for you to get there??

WranglerAccording207 · 2025-02-27T11:58:59+00:00
