Witnesses for Atheism: Cool Podcasts for Ex-Witnesses Turned Atheists

Tuesday, August 16th, 2011

Normally, I’d include this with my news and links updates, but I’m lazy and didn’t want to wait. Witnesses for Atheism is a pretty sweet podcast for those hungry masses of ex-Witnesses that want to hear more podcasts from…well, ex-Witnesses! I discovered it through Twitter, which I finally joined about a week or two ago. [...]

What’s The Biggest Reason Why Jehovah’s Witnesses Disapprove Of Ex-Witnesses?

Monday, August 1st, 2011

Many ex-Jehovah’s Witnesses have tried to justify their reasons for leaving the Watchtower Society to friends and family who are still loyal Jehovah’s Witnesses. Many ex-Witnesses not only fail to do this, but fail miserably. It seems that there are no acceptable reasons for leaving our former Kingdom Halls in the eyes of many Witnesses. [...]

Is That An Attack On The Watchtower Society Or Are You Just Criticizing My Religion?

Friday, May 6th, 2011

Sometimes, we see the world through two different pairs of glasses and we don’t even know it.

When Jehovah’s Witnesses Try Reasoning With Us To Get Us Back In The Kingdom Hall

Saturday, April 24th, 2010

What do Jehovah’s Witnesses have over most ex-Jehovah’s Witnesses? A written narrative for almost any question you can think of, that’s what. Thanks to the Society’s narrative, Witnesses don’t have to think about their answers when a mean old apostate raises objections about the Society’s teachings. They can just quote the Watchtower’s narrative without using [...]

Humanize Yourself In Four Steps When Evangelists Objectify You

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

Want to know one thing that many atheists and ex-Jehovah’s Witnesses have in common? Dealing with aggressive evangelists who objectify us (or who want us to play our assigned role in their idealized conversion scenario). Whether they realize it or not, many evangelists tend to pigeonhole others into categories that are easy for them to [...]

How And Why Doubting Witnesses Can Fade From The Watchtower Society: Bigger, Better, And Uncut!

Friday, September 18th, 2009

Many of my ex-Jehovah’s Witness readers know that I have written some articles for Austin Cline’s About Atheism & Agnosticism web site. One of the more popular ones is called Jehovah’s Witness To Atheist: How Doubting Witnesses Can Fade, Avoid Shunning – Advice for Jehovah’s Witnesses on Fading from the Watchtower Society. That article was [...]
