    If a magic wand was waved, and everyone who has DA?d DF?d fallen away or whatever was allowed to go back into a KH with no questions asked, no announcement of reinstatement ? just welcomed back, what could/would you still (want to or otherwise) do and what would you not. For me IT IS

    COULD STILL DO (want to do)

    • Talks on the school (depends on the material)
    • A presentation (bible not WT/Awake) on the Service Meeting
    • A Public Talk
    • Answer up on certain questions on the Watchtower ? BUT NOT parroting what was written in the paragraph
    • Go on the ministry using the BIBLE NOT the WT/Awake
    • Give a very upbuilding talk about how well everybody was doing without ever using the phrase we could/must do MORE, MORE , MORE

    COULD NOT DO (NOT want to do)

    • Sit on a Judicial Committee
    • Announce any Judicial judgment
    • Parrot any prepared answer from a bookstudy/Kingdom Ministry/WT etc.
    • Shun or not talk to anybody
    • Give any talk about money raising
  • run dont walk
    run dont walk

    not sure if i understand it completely

    but ... Absolutely nothing, i have no interest of desire, or have any good memories of the Kingdom Hall, the Watchtower has ruined my family and made a mess out of our lives, would it of been better without the Watchtower in our lives, no one knows, but i would sure like to find out.

    Maybe if you feel this way and love god, you should open your mind up, and search out a new religion, just a thought.

    Still, nothing they have in the KH is of the least interest to me.........as far as what they teach. I would love to have some of them as friends, again, and of course, be able to talk with my family, but, I have NO wish to go back and become their mindless drone ever again.............

    Yeah that is where I am. I left on purpose. True I have done things since they could discipline me for... but I do them because I am now free to do them..

    I don't want to go back for any reason. Things would have to change and hypocrasy gone before I would.

    WEll Stillajwelder.

    I couldn't go back unless you could completely erase all the pain and hurt I felt during my exit and all the time after.

    It continually will be like a sore on my butt and when I sit just a certain way.. it sends a pain right up my spine.

    The thought of going back (even with a magic wand wave).. is like the sound of chalk being screeched down over the blackboard.... it hurts my psyche !!

    sincerely

    Exactly what I'm doing now. Live out my life as a recovering JW. Not shunning any JWs or being shunned.
