    I handed in my letter today! I have formerly DISFELLOWSHIPPED the cult formerly known as JEHOVAHS WITNESSES from my life. I will herby be proudly be known as an APOSTATE! 😃 ( well as soon as the JW rumour mill kicks in) Thanks Lloyd for this rebuttal, initially waking me up and helping me get my life back. Your work is so important, much appreciated 🤗.

      Awww it warms my heart too Asha that you are making the break 🤗, It is hard & there will be bumps along the way, but keep watching these channels , because there is so much support. If you want to keep a belief then Borean Pickets is incredible & if not , hey the Freedom is yours!
      I’m being shunned by all my believing family members, but I have my own family & friends & I honestly have never felt more liberated and content as I do now. Remember it’s their choice to do this to us!
      I reached a point where I just couldn’t remain a member, but others have faded forever, give your decision time I would recommend.
      I wish you so well on your journey, keep strengthening yourself & all the best xx

I’m not going to go into too much detail with how amazing I think your work is, because it’s quite obvious to most. Thank you for everything you do. But for me personally, the comedy that you put in your videos, helping me to be able to laugh at losing the first 30 years of my life to that cult is very precious to me. You have the same sense of humor that I have and just your reactions sometimes just crack me up. I’ve been able to let go of most of the animosity I had for them but as you know all too well, it never fully goes away. Just wanted to say thank you for helping me to laugh at the absolute ridiculousness of it all. And, congratulations on your “Paradise Lost…Paradise Regained” being in the video 🤣 Good times.

      Lett talking about how if an apostate showed up at your door you should just shoo them away, well that’s how a lot of people feel about cults when they show up at their door. Yet when people do exactly that, JWs pout and cry persecution.
      Also, apostates don’t go door to door, but even if they did, who are the JWs to criticize them?!

    Abraham did one of the most cowardice things in the bible. He told Sarah that she was too attractive for her to say she was his wife when they travelled through Egypt. So he had her pretend that she was Abraham's sister. Then Pharaoh gave all these riches to Abraham so he could hook up with Sarah. God started plaguing Egypt and Pharaoh couldn't understand why Abraham didn't just say she was his wife. It's a fascinating story that I had never heard until I read it straight from the bible.

      Worst part about it was that Pharaoh didn't really do anything wrong (except maybe taking Sarah against her will, but that is left somewhat ambiguous), particularly when compared to Abraham, who just let Egypt suffer.
      Also...why does God punish the average person for the crimes of their leader alone? Sounds as if the average person doesn't actually matter to God.

    One thing I am noticing throughout this entire programme is the pushing of this idea that Faith= Obedience. Specifically, unquestioning obedience. They are twisting the definition to push the idea that, if you are faithful, you will just do what you are told, no matter what. Faith is not the same thing as obedience, you can still have faith in something but apply critical thought to it, tested it out fully. But they don't want that, because critical thought and questioning is where their teachings fall apart.

    • @fainmaca9706

    Something I’ve raised with my mum, who’s still a believing witness, is on the topic which Stephen Lett touched on: The bible never needed revising. Okay, let’s say I agree. If that’s true and we have never needed a “Bible 2: More Biblier”, then why would Jehovah, who inspired a perfect writing which never needed revision, use an organisation who CONSTANTLY need revisions and go further to the point of harming children, and in fact causing Jehovah’s name to come into disrepute because of that.

It's a perfect lesson for our yang wans who can meditate upon the claw-marks of a loving god."

      In all seriousness, I'm surprised that, as far as I can recall, the Society has never included that particular scene in an assembly drama. Of course, I would suspect that, given the opportunity, the Society would prepare a full two-hour drama just on that one scene, perhapsin the form of a modern/ancient hybrid, such as used to be presented directly from the platform. After all, in light of the Society's overall attitude and policy toward children, it's right up their alley.

    Hi dear Lloyd😀!
    Its so unreal to me, losing a family and son over something thats just made up🥺I really enjoy your videos, I can finally laugh about how insanly tragic-comic the whole cult is..and how it takes everything from you if you if you get babtized.if you dont have friends-or most important someone who loves you and supports you on the outside if you decide to leave…i was truly lucky in that way.
    How could i tell you my story? It is so weird that only ex-Jehovas witnesses will understand how deep and hopless my story is. Best regards carina miljeteig
