Is it based on Dr. Fat Rats teachings? "It is written"(according to what?)hate to see that nightmare happen to other people!

Does anyone know about the Corp grad who killed 3 people and was in prison STILL receiving TWI teaching tape? In Karls book it said he could be out for parole in 2006?

Well..I left it 3 times and went back..so I was kinda like the boy who cried wolf when I finally did leave..it took longer to get it out of my head than the time I spent physically in it! They never talked about it too me after that except once my dad asked why I hitch-hiked cross country. Nevermind.

My parents were also upset I was not following there ways in the Catholic church(there were alot of Catholic people that took PFAL just because they didn't know the bible and wanted to!) My sister was the one who reached me when she helped my friend and I by staying with her,but..not soon after that I returned to TWI(like a dog to it's VOMIT!)and went Military Wow. The only thing that broke me physically out of twi was getting married to a believer who also got out. My parents LOVE him.

Yes it IS sad and pityful TWI likes to "appear" to have it all together on the surface UNTIL you start scratching the surface and it reveals its uglyness! (I would say rusty broken cisterns eroded with LIES) I always loved Way Productions when they came to cities and played like in the fancy Hotels (like the revolving top of a place in Phoenix)it seem very nice and flawless. Like take a stand caravan...etc.....herding the people to the "pfal biblical slaughter house" of spiritual destruction!

When I left home,my dad would leave that back door open at his house just incase I was hungry and wanted to come home. Frequently I would go there and eat tunafish and oj when they were at work(knowing they would not be home)I was kinda torn but I just thought it was "Gods Will" for me to follow TWI! I was hard headed about it too and becoming more numb about my earthly family! When I left twi my sister took me in (and also another ex wow)would feed us everynight and she was great to us. We didn't stay lomg until we both found a way to live. (job wise..then we split up and went separate way but the support was much needed to exit cult life)

Seems pretty boring out there and all those pictures of Dr. Fat Rat are just creepy!! You Tube Camp Gunnison

Ouch! How old were you? My parents would have sent me to college,bought me a car and all that jazz IF only I would get out of TWI. At the time "Nothing was gonna stop me" like the song went I was Born Again and was gonna serve! During that time in 78 (Jonestown happened)then the choice was leave or get out of the house. Which was really easy to go live with other believers until I went wow and it just fueled the flame more! On the field is when I learned TWI was a company and we were working in the slaughterhouse of what was truely biblical research!

When I think of what I put my parent through. Straight out of high school and into a cult! Geez!!! Those soul searching tender years of why am I here? Got cha. I was thinking while reading about the children that grew up in twi as they were running from it at 18 here a whole stampede of l8 yr olds were running to it! My parents reaction at first to "twig" was Oh thats nice your making friends in college(in the bible belt in OKC at that,..a biblical research class didn't seem that weird) But..in time...things were a changing..PFAL did it. I had to take the class and THEY would not give me the funds! Huh ?so began the "adversary" thing with parent against young green 18 yr olds! Rebellion and I am this and that NOW because I am a 'Believer" (well I learned the hard way thinking I was doing the work of the ministry for that freakn clown to get fat and spread the WOW and screw people over) Should have stayed in college (it would have been cheaper than therapy!) So ....what about you?

My dad loved me unconditionally,even when I got into The Way and thought of him as "earthly"(oh brother!) He was my hero and would rescue me out of the cult more than once but, even when I returned to twi(again like of dumb a$$!) he was still there for me (not to judge me )but to be my dad.

That is just really really heartbreaking!

yes! He told me to "Get out of The Way International 26 yrs ago"

Trying to put it nicely.

To put it mildly! To put it mildly! To put it mildly!

spiritual abuse emotional abuse mental abuse physical abuse child abuse

or Benatars "Hell is for Children"

Pigeons poop all you want "Go for it!"

Poor kids! It is one thing for the wiring in an adult head to be messed up with but a Child! Read anything by "The Writing Machine" . Glad my kids were born after I got out too!

Where else is there to go where we all have been throught the same BS.

I feel whatever you believe in if should be TRUE even if if is worshiping trees and smoking monkeys toesnails(don't need artificial trees and fake monkey press on nails!!!! If you get my sarcism!!! Meaning the Root of the Way Tree is built by one decietful person who used people and wiped his a$$cets with our blood bought lives with his sewer filled heart ! I am saying our growth stoppped at (whatever twi said was so)regardless of broken relationanships,abuse or so forth we I felt were only allowed to be what we were according to twi or we were to be shunned basically. We were Used.

As long as everyone speaks there mind"freely" that is cool. Letting people voice there opinions(no matter what they are) I sure am not here to argue with people I don't have time for that,but what may have hindered growth because of cult life is what I am saying to express.

Replacing thought pattern with whatever was in "the class" rewiring a system to make it became WAY DAZE and anything else was so called "off the word"

I was hitch hiking too(me and another "dsyfunctional wow vet")we lost alot of stuff including my guitar!

I saw the The Way International is on Facebook and there are peoples pictures,and the gravesite of the FAT RAT ! It gave me the creeps to look at it.
