    Unbelievably, when I left, I wasn't pursued by the elders. They on one occasion, right when I stopped going asked to visit me with the curcuit ov, I said no. (it was my ex wife they asked, not me personally) I had had 3 shepherding calls in 12 years so I wasn't that impressed with the new show of 'love'

    Almost 12 years later and, even though I was never df'd or da'd and countless times former friends would walk by and turn their heads from me, they contacted me to ask me to confirm something regarding my personal life in other to benefit another witness. What an absolute cheek!

    Unbelievable what Punk has had to deal with.

    iCeltic - Good gordon bennett. They go from one extreme to the next. Even before I was DA'd and even before I set foot in the Baptist Church some of the dubs were shunning me. Or they'd ring for Mrs Punk and I'd answer the phone. I knew who was ringing because their number would show up on the caller display! They'd curtly say: 'Mrs Punk please!' Hoping I wouldn't talk to them. I never did, I couldn't be arsed with those hypocrite cult members!

    Now they've learned to call Mrs Punk on her cell-phone!

    Twats!

    I would add though that I didn't go to another church, it's safe to say that if I did and they knew it they'd have been up to my place quicker than you could change organisational policy.

    iCeltic - I guess I'm just bloody minded. I actually put money into the 'offering' that went round even though the Pastor says it's voluntary only.

    I bunged in a couple of knicker 1. to say bo((ocks to the governing Body of Jehovah's witnesses(TM) and 2. To contribute toward the coffee and biccies afterwards.

    Number 1 felt so so good!

    Yes. Mrs Punk is still a JW and even more zealous since my departure. She used to miss meetings and not bother with stuff. Now it's all gone the other way. It has caused great upheaval and all the vitriol and unchristian behaviour and hatred has come from her believe it or not.

    I've been so calm but she's been raging against me and if the anythingthing unfortunate happens she blames me for causing it by leaving 'the truth'!

    She constantly drops little witnessy hints. If I object she explodes...literally goes mental. I have learned to totally ignore it. The WTB$ really has got her under close mind control. She blames it all on me for getting 'weird stuff' off the internet.

    I am sorry. I am impressed by your calmness. There is still hope. I held on tighter toward the end too.

    I looked at him and said: 'Yeah. I know you have to follow your business model and obey the rules of your corporation. Personally I don't care. I do not recognize your authority or the authority your business the watchtower thinks it has over me!'

    His eyes went wide and there was a pause.

    Lead: 'Punk! You know it's not a business.....'

    Me: 'You are uninvited on my property. I can have whatever opinion I like on my own property and I don't have to listen to yours. The fact that you're on my private property uninvited does not give you the right to foist your opinion onto me!'

    More drop jawed looks.

    What a wonderful response and a great example. Thank you!

    shadesofgrey - Thanks. It took me a lot to hold my composure I can tell you. These are the same schmucks that let off a 'brother' that has been 'pestering' children in a local park despite him being convicted in a court of law. He used to put in a lot of 'hours' on his report slip. I'm glad I wasn't on that comittee!

    Punk, good luck in your marriage. After I DA'd, my JW wife saw me as the enemy of God, a "spawn of Satan" to be loathed. The Watchtower never teaches to love your "apostate" spouse. In fact, they recommend separation or divorce to protect "spiritual matters" of the JW. My leaving the Watchtower destroyed my marriage, but she finally left (DA'd) a year later. She now hates what the cult did to her (she was born in).

    Quirky1 - I ignored the letters but have kept them to make me laugh when I feel down!

    sacolton - Yes. It only goes to show the level of mind control and uniformity = CULT!! Filthy disgusting cult!!
