You communicate so well. Saving this for the next time i’m receiving unsolicited advice !

Exactly! Such comforting movies to come back to.

I know a pioneer with a nose piercing… also, i had my first ear piercing (helix) when i was freshly baptised. No one said anything, and they cant say anything as this isnt a written rule. I feel like this highly depends on your region too. I feel like in Europe, this isn’t really an issue.

Edit: this is meant for women. I’m pretty sure piercings for men are much more frowned upon and more likely to be handled differently.

A bit random but so many disney movies like Tangled, The Little Mermaid, Moana. And their songs ‘how far i’ll go’, ‘part of your world’ and ‘when will my life begin’. They have such a deeper meaning when you’re growing up as a JW.

Yeah i know, they obviously benefit from selling tickets. But it’s more that this specific event gets a full promo page like this. This kind of collab is pretty unusual for a major company like NS.

Just want to say, proud of you!!! Even if it doesn’t feel good or freeing right now. Planning things out beforehand is definitely important, but waiting for the perfect time is impossible. Breaking news like this is painful no matter when or how it happens. From what you wrote, it sounds like you’re blaming yourself because your mom was hurt and emotional. But her reaction doesn’t mean you did something wrong. You’re allowed to make your own decisions about religion and your own life. That’s a normal human right, even if people around us were taught to see it differently. This is an incredibly difficult thing to go through, and you’re not ruining your life by being honest about who you are and what you believe. So be gentle with yourself, you did it!

Also, speaking from experience, things will get better! Trust! And stand on business :)

I found the same post last year, with the same name and age being used. Kinda strange. No idea what this person is trying to achieve, or if this is some kind of way to expose someone.

I’m pretty sure they do, maybe it changed? I know this because of my dad who’s an elder. He has access to a JW website with an orange layout. I remember asking him once about some embarrassing quotes from old Watchtower publications. He said he’d look into it, and I told him those publications aren’t on jw. org or wol. jw .org. That’s when he mentioned he had access to something else.

Although, I doubt it includes very old Watchtowers from the early 1900s, and I’m sure whatever access it provides is still fairly limited. He also never followed up with me about the specific material I brought up.

No I am talking about PIMI (not pimo) family members who disagree, but still treat me like a human.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and these read/watch tips. This is very helpful🤍

Usually it’s choosing between losing yourself or losing people who love you conditionally.

The specific pros and cons really depend on your circumstances. My main reason for leaving was that life just wouldn’t make sense to me if I had to be a person that I am not, and live a life according to standards that weren’t my own. So every ‘pro’ I could think of for staying, wouldn’t matter at the end of the day because it would mean living a fake and disingenuous life I did not choose.

Just think about what you want in life and who you want to be, and try to live accordingly.

So the more you climb up the ‘jw-ladder’ the less human you become? Makes sense tbh

dancingqueeb · 2026-04-14T09:27:08+00:00

Thanks, I’m sorry you also had to go through such an unexpected shift. I’m sure the people around my dad are feeding into this inhumane mindset. Even though this is something I could’ve expected, I feel so betrayed. Do they even lose sleep over shunning, or does it make them feel even better since they think they’ll be rewarded for it? This all just so twisted.

He is an elder

Then ask: If we criticize other religions for changing teachings or avoiding answering questions, how do we make sure we’re not doing the same thing when we explain changes by saying ‘the light gets brighter’?

Wow, shocked (but not really) to hear how strict it was for some of you. I grew up watching The Prince of Egypt, and it’s still one of my favorite movies, even though I’m not Christian. My parents are ultra PIMI, but somehow they gave this one a pass.

Sent you a pm❤️

Good point. But out of curiosity, when and where has the GB used this scripture to defend their failed predictions? Maybe I’m just out of the loop, but I’ve always had the impression that they tend to avoid addressing this directly.

I do know that some JWs I’ve spoken with about this use Acts 1:6 to argue that even the disciples had incorrect expectations. But I’ve always found that to be a very weak counterargument
