CHRIST MUST HAVE BEEN RESURRECTED BODILY!!!!!!
by chuckyy ini have always had a problem with jesus being resurrected as a spirit creature, even when i was a witness.. the reason for this is that jesus said in the gospels that if they "destroyed this temple", he would raise it again in three days.
but, here"s the interesting bit.
this same account says that when jesus was resurrected, his disciples realised that he had been talking about the "temple of his body.".

NO ONE CAN COME TO THE FUNERAL!!!!
by chuckyy injust an update on my previous thread.as you know, my mother in law who is a jw, asked me to conduct the funeral for my father in law.i am disassociated.
apparently, the elders wrote to the society and had a meeting today.
the outcome is that noone is allowed to come to the funeral, not even close friends of my mother in law from the hall.

ALL STAYING AWAY FROM THE FUNERAL!!!!!
by chuckyy inmy father in law died and i have been asked by my jw mother in law to take the funeral even though i am disassociated.
last night an elder rang my mother in law and told her not to be suprised if many of her close friends from the hall stay away.
i am just stunned at the callousness of it all.

by chuckyy ini posted yesterday or day before regarding my anger at my wife being shunned the day after her father died.. in fact it was a very deliberate shun by 3 women who went out of their way to brush right past my wife.. i saw 2 of them today and went up to them in the school playyard and said very loudly for all the parents to hear:.
"i would like to thank you both for your condolensces and for walking right past my wife when her father had just died.. true christianity??

I NEED YOUR HELP!!!!!
by chuckyy inmy wifes father has just died.
he wasn't a jw but his wife is.my wife and i are recently disassociated.. the thing is, the reason my wife and i disassociated is because of cruel comments made by certain sisters toward my disabled daughter.
now my wife has to see these 2 particular people everyday at school (their 2 kids are in class with ours) now usually, they stand away from my wife waiting for their kids and walk out after us.

The sort of person that gets to be an Elder?????
by chuckyy in.
do you think that the better the job that you have or the higher the social standing you have, makes it more likely that you will be an elder in comparison to those that are less fortunate???
quite a few elders in my old kh even had their own private car plates.. chukky

If shunning was stopped?????
by chuckyy in.
if shunning was stopped as a result of society policy change, do you think that there would be a significant exodus out of the organization????.

Dying for whats right???
by chuckyy inone of the things that i could not reconcile,which led to my disassociating myself was this:.
i have a daughter that needs open heart surgery.
my heart goes out to those parents who may have one time refused a blood fraction or even an organ transplant for their children because they believed at the time that it was scriptural.
