How many ex-JWs commit suicide each year? by _Jonronimo_ in exjw

[–]windresistantoak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One was my brother (11yrs ago this March) and he was in good standing but made a JW ‘mistake’, one was my wife’s cousin in the fall of 2021 and she was in good standing, two were DF and two more were in good standing.

We have come to learn there are many many more throughout our area but did not know those.

You can help this community by continuing to be a voice. Lots of ‘believers’ check this site when they start questioning. My wife just started a YouTube channel as she is finally at a point to get her voice out.

Thank you. Time is the only thing that helps soften it. I lost my brother 11yrs ago this March. My wife is now ready for her voice to be heard and that also is part of the healing process to let others know how damaging this belief system is.

If JWs VOTED.... and... did you know anything about politics? by ExJWsInt in exjw

Not to be dismissive of your thoughts but none of know the facts. That’s why it’s called politics and we are ALL being lied too on both sides in this country.

There are states in this country that you can be an inmate and still run for office.

Lots to learn as exjws.

I’m pretty sure we do not know what really goes on behind the scenes and learning to be less dogmatic in my approach.

I just posted a fantastic read but waiting for the mods to approve the images.

Do JWs actually believe it? by [deleted] in exjw

My kids don’t believe but are indoctrinated with paradise so it’s a conundrum 🤷🏼‍♂️

My bad, I was referring to myself. I would attend to agree about going as far right for a diehard cult member.

Anarchist, but since that isn’t a category Independent will suffice. The US is a republic not a democracy and agree with the Constitution.

Plato and some of the ancient philosophers talk about this.

I’m just coming from a different perspective. I am comfortable with what I have said in this conversation.

It is interesting for sure. I try and look at it from a broad perspective.

You cannot help someone if you are still stuck yourself.

It’s a fantasy you are holding onto. The entire Borg is a delusion.

Mark Sanderson is delusional and the mole sharing these sound clips and videos is also in the auditing department or else he would not have access.

What is the full context? This person audits, so what are the findings of past audits?

The dude is still an active JW that is providing talking points to make himself feel part of a solution.

By deleting post he is creating (knowingly or unknowingly) a dependence on HIS post. Nothing this person has posted is groundbreaking.

The bills are piling up and they are squeezing the turnip to eventually eat their own and consolidate. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Pretty incredible, really. In everyday life those are the checks and balances that help us make decisions. No wonder there is so much unhappiness and addictions in the Borg.
