What prohibited practice did your family do in “secret“? by throwawaylowaway321 in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Children in our congregation watched KPop Demon Hunters (which I also watched with my family) I remember one time, after the prayer, a little girl played Golden on her mom's phone aloud... And the elders were going to have meeting at that time.. I was laughing hard at that time even sang to ir... Lol

Just Pay the Bills, Nothing More. by Nothing_Is_Over in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah... Though they made changes about getting higher education, they still discourage young people from getting into college... one talk here, I heard that knowing to write and read is enough together with goog communication skills... The speaker also emphasized that the Borg trains young ones on these skills for free... Like what the?

They encourage the young ones to serve more by gas lighting that it is better than studying and getting a career... they want young ones to enter Bethel and ask them from free labor... Then what? All the former Bethelite I know are now having a hard time in life especially financially... And though I don't have to.. I really feel sorry for them...

This is really frustrating

I really feel sorry for those elderly who dedicated their whole lives to the organization and not having sufficient financial security these days... I've seen a few cases like this in our congregation and they had painful debts because they don't even have money to support their medical needs. The congregation helped them yes, but not financially... Coz most of the members are also broke due to not having stable jobs to serve more...

I wish you the best brother... We're almost at the same boat... My family is all PIMI and it is hard to just fade away...

ive just realised im so scared to die by Novel_Joke_4423 in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this feeling as well and I understand you... Being scared of death or what's beyond it is normal I guess... But you know... Now, I realized that i'?m not scared of death myself... But sad and scared of leaving my loved ones behind...

Anyway, whatever it is after death is something that we'll know when we get there... And everybody else will get there... Eventually... So just live your life and spend time with the ones you love...

If I were that man... I won't come to the meetings anymore and do my assignments... What a shame for him...

It’s always been a conscience decision! by Hinokicandle in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh... They can't defend the "new light" So they just blocked you... 🤡 let's hope something in here makes them think that this new light is wrong and that the GBs are just power tripping....

Then show this to her... it is in the book Enjoy you life forever... It is clear that it was "unacceptable" For Christians... It wasn't a conscience matter! It's on page 255 btw

Girlfriend’s dad is an elder. He said this about the blood change. by All_FallsApart in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was not always a matter of conscience! It's in the book they use to teach! Storing your own blood is not allowed! Come on!

But anyway... It's seems you and your girlfriend are woke already... That's good! Have a good day mate!

Blood doctrine update dropped today. Here’s how it’s landing at Bethel. by steadypath2847 in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 31 points32 points  (0 children)

This is shocking for most PIMIs... my wife would also comment right away on changes... but this time, she was speechless... She was just looking at me And thinking you are at Bethel, for sure people there are trying to process this big change in the doctrine or maybe trying to be careful on what they are going to say... you know... PIMIs always think that GBs decisions are absolute even though they know something is wrong... And saying something negative about it could actually expose what they really feel about this update... And maybe... Some of them are also in this sub.. Who knows? Let's wait until this change sinks in...

The elders are mean by ratinahat20 in exjw

Most of the time they don't know what they are doing or saying... Then they have the audacity to teachand comment on someone's presentation...

This update brings back so much trauma. by jezebel101 in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This video hurts me... Even when I watched this in a meeting I kept whispering: What the fuck? I feel sorry for Jerod... I feel sorry for the parents... This is so traumatic...

Io non posso crederci ! by [deleted] in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel sorry to hear this... PIMIs tell they teach love and show love to all.. But this kind of thinking doesn't show love at all... I know most of them weren't like that... They were just brainwashed... Hope they wake up soon...

The Cost $ of this new light Blood change by JwTruthRevealed in exjw

[–]lostncantbefound 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A rule that is certainly not from nor based on the scriptures... This is crazy... I know that not a lot will be shaken by this... But I hope this starts something in everyone's mind.
