FLYING TOWARDS FREEDOM

Translated from the original by Evdokia Davitidou

This is a great day for the blogspot "Antiairetikos", because we are especially pleased to host a letter from a former Jehovah's Witness, Onisimos Eleftheriadis. In this letter, where he introduces himself, he testifies in a few lines his personal Calvary which he is forced to go through, since he decided to break off all relations with the ruthless - in terms of behaviour against former members - organization of Jehovah's Witnesses, 'Watchtower'. Of course, what dominates the letter of this man, is nothing but fear. That can be easily understood by reading it. Fear, even now.The Church of God, Orthodox Christianity.Welcome back, dear Onisimos. May God keep you safe and strong in this particularly difficult moment of your life, and hopeful in the dark tunnel of "evil" you have to escape from, once and forever.

The very first thing we feel right to do is to welcome him back to
Here follows the letter of the former Jehovah's Witness, Onisimos Eleftheriadis:

Good morning dear Christos, (the blogspot-holder "Antiairetikos") My name is Onisimos Eleftheriadis and I live in the Heraklion of Crete (Greece), but I would be grateful if you kept this secret, as well with other information you'll be given in the future.
You will realize from what I write in this letter that I and moreover my family are in danger from the organization "Watch Tower".
My story is very long and I don't' know how to narrate it, from where to begin and where to end. I am "new" in the technology matters, so I am not really aware of the danger I might be in.
I don't know what information will leak out and what risk I face since, I must tell you, that the organization has a powerful consulting barrister office and huge amounts of money, being thus able to destroy anyone who tries to testify the truth about them.
I don't know the legal consequences of all this, at all. I know them very well.
I am born and raised in this environment and because of this I know many things, which remain unknown to most people. It's the kind of information someone can never be aware of or understand , unless he is or used to be like me. When you don't see what happens "behind the curtain", you are not really able to tell the story. What takes place in the "family" of the organization, remains within the organization. There is one mighty feeling that rules in their "territory". It puts every free thought and voice "behind bars" and it is called FEAR.
FEAR has different meanings inside and outside "the bars" of "Watchtower".
A sick, queer form of the primeval and primordial emotion of human race.
That kind of FEAR. With God's help and guidance, I will do whatever is in my power for the truth, although I am very poor in material terms, the "Witnesses" have isolated me and deprived me even of my family's love. My parents exorcized me. They turned their back to me. I 've left the sect and now I'm left with nothing and no one (no one at all !!!).
I only have God's help and guidance. My will is to help other former "witnesses" who also managed to escape. I would also like to help people who still live in the fear of this jail, always with God's guidance and help. At this point I must make a general comment.
It is wrong to say "Jehovah's Witness". Instead it is right to use the term "Watchtower's Witness". Although I know that their official name is "Jehovah's Witness" and they are worldwide known by that, believe me the term I give you is the right one. So please let the people know and understand. I don't say that in a matter of respect or honour for the name (which is adulterated anyway), but it is a matter of order.
If you find mistakes in my narration or the way I approach the matter it is because I'm totally inexperienced to do so in the right way.

Thank you for your time and interest.
